ONE TERM ENOUGH?

Gov Templetons has again read himself from consideration as a candidate to succeed himself to the governorship. It is not the first time he has done so. This latest effort took place at Lake Quassapaug and IS re- ported to have greatly surprised mem- bers of the town committee and other guests at the outing where the gov ernor let fly his remarks
 At the same time the governor named his preference as his success sor. Senator Ralph French of Thomas ton, the governor said, has all the qualifications. This looks reasonable. There are plenty of stalwarts in the state who are qualified for the job, but the method of selection IS such that their qualifications will not get much of a hearing by the powers-to- be who intend to make the selection.
 The governor said he was proud of his record" as the chief magistrate of the state. Most governors are. He added he did the best he knew how He had opportunities to throw the proyerbial monkey wrench into the state machine but upon some such occasions his arms became paralyzed.
 Nutmeggers will agree or disagree with the governor about the record after they know more about 1t.

Seven million new voters are quail fled 10 cast their first ballots this year. This estimate Is based on the census of 1920 and indicates that number Of persons have come to voting age be- tween 1920 and 1924.
 What difference thls may make Is indicated by the fact that In New York the margin between the success ful and unsuccessful candidate usual ly is around 15o,O0o votes; yet in that state 66o, 900 new voters can cast their ballots this year.
 Ohio has 374,000 new voters which IS four times the average Ohio plurali- ty; Massa chusetts has eSs,00o.

COOLIDGE. FORD AND EDISON

News item from Plymouth, Vt., paper Henry Ford, Thomas Edison and Harvey Firestone stopped at the Coolidge farm residence and visit ed MT. and Mrs. Calvin Coolidge. A good time was had by all."
 Ford. who has just turned down an invitation by the Michigan Repubh- can organization to run against Sen- ator Couzens, and who was an easy running candidate against senator Newberry before the latter was thrown out of the senate, ought to be able to talk entertainingly with the nresident about the various and sundry political developments. me man who said history is bunk appar- entIv thinks politics as far as he is concerned likewise is the bunk Judg- ing by his aversion to getting into II further than the tips of his toes. May he he is wise But he is strongly TOT the president and the latter including the entire Republican party. nowadays seems to be srongly for Ford as an ab,a and sound-minded citizen. Even the Republican party organs. which few years ago ridiculed the motor uaenste are now exercising astonlsh- ing restraint. and whenever his name is mentioned it is to surround 1t wlth the aurora of difference that beh,s newly discovered great man.
 old Tom Edison thinks pretty much in the same groove with II. Ford. But unlike Henry, Tom has always been considered as great American. Tom fired the imagination of Americans before Henry got on the sCcne-in deed Tom had most Of his inventions invented at a time when Henry was tinkering with puny gasoline buggics on inc streets Of Detroit. We have read about great many ideas on various subjects projected by Tom Edison since he became famous, and those ideas having to do with me- ehanical inventions have impressed us nightiIy.

rnE rnEsInENrs VACATION

lt Is 10 be hoped that President Coolidge, spending a two weeks vaea' ton in Vermont sticks to his de- termination to enjoy "a complete rest" The home of the elder Coolidge in Plymouth Is far enough removed from the railroad and the main routes of travel to insure a maximum of quiet comfort and restfui enjoyment,
 The nation has become convinced that our presidents are forced 10 attend 10 too much detail. There arc no avail able reports as to how President Coolidge is bearing np under the avalanche of work since he has assum- ed offlce; his health appears 10 remain good and there have been no reports Of the effects of straining 10 encom- pass the manifold duties of tho office, It is believed Coolidge is the type Of man who knows how to stop and call it a day when the time for stopping has arrived; and what is not complet' ed one day will have to go over to tho next: and If details accumulate, per- haps some of thcm are found of type that can be looked after by others.
 The correspondents are in Ply mouth. but these can hardly interfere with the perfect rest desired. They probably also will do some resting up but if the president starts pitching hay or begins to help his venerable father in looking after the farm work, one may be sure that entertaining stories will be "placed on the wire"
 The president has time to ruminate upon the prospects during the forth coming campaign; and when he thusly ruminates. 1t Is probable that he will not keeE his mind altogether concen- trated upon the Coolidge crops.

AN OUTSIDE AUDIT

Gov Templeton Is 10 be commended in hts efforts to get at the basic facts underlying the states finances without fear or favor; and Is to be com mended for his desire 10 obtain New York and Boston auditors to go over the states books.
 An audit by a New York or Bos- ton firm will disarm critics who may doubt any other kind of audit even though 1t is just as good.
 The claim of Edward M. Yeomans. Democratic state central committee chairman. that outside auditors are to be employedsfor purposes of "cov- ertng up graft and incompetency," seems to have been made without due consideration. The governor does not reflect upon the integrity of the state auditors, but senses the opinion of citi- gems correctly when he says an audit by a large firm of unimpeachable reputation will inspire public confi- dence.
