THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS

The action Of the Vermont Demo
Gratis in nominating a fairly strong
man and popular man as candidate
for representative in Congress from
the first district win undoubtedly re-
suit in a crystallization of sentiment
among the Republicans of that district
on a man of more than mediocre cali
bre to run for that position. Thus far
there has been little enthusiasm among
the Republicans Of the first district
over the selection of candidate, the
feeling being, apparently, that the
state would soon lose one Of its rep
resentatives in the House and that
the tenure of Office by the man elected
in the first district would be short,
hence it wouldn't make much differ
ence who was sent to Congress. That
lackadaisical attitude will be shaken
out of them because of the nomination
by the Democrats of James 4. Kenns-
dy Of Burlington as candidate for The
position. Mr.. Kennedy is by no means
the strongest man in the state Of YER
mont either as an official or az vote
getter; but he has given evidence Of
ability and has caused a feeling Of
confidence in him to be established,
which would make him good cam
paigner in a free-for-all election and
against weak Republican. The in
terest Of the coming state election
would, in such an event, center in the
first district, it being generally con-
ceded that the remainder Of the ticket
nominated at Burlington Wednesday
does not have chance to be elected,
regardless of what the Republicans
may do about selecting their candi-
date.

Fixed condensers are most impor-
tant parts of radio sets. They are
used both in crystal and tube sets
and are useful for a variety Of pur-
poses. They are so easily and quick
ly made that every radio fan should
have a number of them on hand for
emergencies and experimental work.
Fixed condensers may be made of pa
per and tinfoil, but more satisfactory
and efficient instruments are con-
strUcted of mica or waxed paper and
sheet copper or aluminium
To make such condenser and grid
