Mrs. (Continued on page VI), ADAMS STANDS BY THE REPUBLICANS Former Roosevelt Supporter and Representative from Marlboro Isn't a Bull Moose. Montpeller, Oct, :.".. "If the Republican party at tho time of the Chicago con vention was progressive enough so that ho (Roosevelt) wanted to bo Its standard bearer, It wns none fho toss progressive after his defeat," The foregoing expres sion Is from a statement Issued this aft ernoon by Edwin P. Adams, the oldest member of tho Vermont legislature In point of service and one of Its most In fluential members. Mr. Adams hns been widely heralded In the columns of fho Boston Journal as one of Vermont's leading Bull Moosers. CouMdernble Importnnco Is nttaehod to Mr. Adams's statement by republicans because of his prominence nmong the fnimers nnd In legislative circles. Ho Is a farmer by occupation, but hns served ns town clerk and trensurcr of tho town of Mnrlboro, Windham county, for a number of years. That town first honor ed him with nn election as representative In 1R1 and since that time ho has been elected to the same office flvo times, so Mint he Is now serving his 11th year ns a member of that body. Mr. Adams's stntcment In full follows: "I hnve been given the reputation by certain newspapers of being a Hull Mooser and a progressive. 1 was a Roose velt man and worked for Rooevclt up to the time of the Chicago convention when he wns defented for tho ropubllcnn nomination by President Taft. I am still a progressive, that's true, but I nm a believer In progress within the Republican party which has a history of progress to stand on. I shall do my best to make that party even more progressive to meet the problems of the future ns It has met those of the past. "Roosevelt is a powerful man and he has qualities I ndmlro but when he was defeated at the republican convention, that should have ended It. If the Republi can party at the time of the Chicago con vention was progressive enough so that he wanted to be Its standard bearer. It was none tho less progressive nfter his defeat. No, sir, I shall not nllow the 'republlcnn' nt the end of my name to be cut off. Roosevelt bolted a pnrty of progress but I am not willing to do so. "I believe a vote for Roosevelt means n vote for Wilson nnd I am not going to run any chances. I was incensed at President Taft's stand on Canadian reciprocity and stated at that tlms that unless I changeJ my mind I should not vote for him, but I belU'-e ho was honest In his convictions. I hnve not forgotten tho conditions dur ing Cleveland's second administration under n democratic tar'ff, and I bolleve tho farmers of Vermont would mnke n great mlstako to take chances. "Tho Republican party stands for the protective pr'liclple which hns been vindicate! by nctual experience. Tho election of Wilson would mean n democratic tariff, which has also hen trle.1, but has not been vindicated. "I believe Taft is an honest, cour ageous man nnd that ho should be giv en crodlt for tho record he has mad-j His father wns a Vcrmonter and his estimate of a Vermonter was 'a sa'e man.' I believe that Presllent Taft in herited that quality from his father." UNIVERSITY NOTES. Delta 1'Hl nnd Delia Slginn Initiation)! MInn Terrlll Tnlkx In Women.
