Don't Let Vermont Go to Seed.

Mr. Editor:
Did it ever occur to you that our
officials in this state are elected not
because of any special principle that
they stand for, nor in many cases be-
cause of anv special fitness of the
candidate for the Office which he
seeks?
If he has been a lifelong Repub-
lican, has been an active worker in
some other Republican of good party
standing, he will in turn be elected to
Office.
Is this representative government ?
Is there any particular incentive for
an Independent thinking voter to go
to the polls and vote for candidates
nominated and elected in this man.
ner?
How much better it would be for
our state TO have two equally strong
political factions, each one giving the
other something to work for.
Our state is no better off than Ala
bama, for instance, which is just as
conservatively Democratic as Yer
mont is conservatively Republican.
Because of these political methods
our old state is going to seed.
It is time we changed this farce
of election and saw to it that men
who deserved the Office were elected.
not because of being regularly Repub-
licans nor regularly Democrats, but
because they are men who are work
ing for the best interests of the state
regardless of party.
Elect men who stand for progress
sive principles and are not bound by
any party ties.
Let's have our candidates declare
openly what they stand for and win
their elections on their respective
merits.
You have recently seen clear ex-
ample of how our one-sided political
policy works in this state.
We had a governor who was ap-
parentIy trustworthy, efficient, popu-
| lar and respected until he was tried
and found guilty in our own courts OF
embezzling state funds
He was found guilty because there
was no other way out. The facts were
there and no amount of whitewashine
could cover them up.
He has not yet been punished mol
will he be- Yet he was the Republi.
can nominee and of course should be
elected.
Is this situation to continue until
eternity?
You don't want this grand old state
to go to seed.
Let's wake up and put Vermont on
the map as a progressive state, one
that the rest of the union Will look
up to, not a plodding, hide-bouno
commonwealth but real live forward
looking state setting the pace foi
the rest of the union.
| The time is ripe to build up a
strong progressive movement In this
state, a Democratic party, II you
please, to abolish these old worn ou'
methods and put real life into tne
political campaigns and make oul
elections worth while, make then
worthy of the State of Vermont, .
commonwealth in the United States

10 the Voters of Faulkner County:
1t is with regret that | announce
to you my withdrawal from the race
for treasurer of this county, and |
deem it proper that l give you the
reason that prompts me to withdraw
at this time. First, l am past the
active age of man and it would be
a physical hardship for me to make
a thorough canvass of the county.
am engaged in farming and can't we'll
spare the time out of my crop. l am
not well off in this worlds goods and
don't feel justified in paying $40 just
to get my name on the ticket.
Thanking each of you who have
shown an interest in my candidacy
and assuring you that l shall be found
supporting the Democratic ticket
from constable to president at the
general election just as l have done
for the past 46 years, I am,
Your friend,
Elias Kuykendall
