D THE VERMONT PHCENIX, BRATTLEBORO, FRIDAY, AUGUST 2, 1912. 9 COUNTY DEMOCRATS L NOMINATED TICKET Discord Over Organization of Wil son and Marshall Club Verbal Sparring Match an Enlivening Feature of Convention In Brattleboro Tueeday Morning. An outbreak of dissension marked the latter jart of the Democratic county convention In Orange hall, Brattleboro, Tuesday forenoon, and for a time It looked as though there would bo an open rupture, the question at Issue be ing as to whether the convention 'would organize a county Wilson and Marshall club. Remarks were bordering on the personal when the question was settled, after a largo amount of time had been wasted. A county club finally was or ganized, with MaJ. P. V. Chllds of this town ns president. MaJ. Chllds said ho was moved to decline the ofllce, but ho finally" accepted It In a short speech from which one would think the Re publicans were In a fair way to tumble over themselves In a scramblo to vote for Wilson. Rollln S. Chllds of Brattleboro, chair man of the county committee, presided and ho also was optimistic, stating that tho Democrats felt that they were In sight of the promised land after many years of wandering In the bulrushes of defeat. He said tho tariff was to be a leading Issue and paid a tribute to Wil liam J. Bryan which was applauded. For secretaries Leonard A. Brown of Wil mington, J. H. Byrne of Bellows Falls and Arthur P. Carpenter of Brattleboro were elected. These vice presidents were elected and took scats on the stago: G. II. Hall of Brattleboro, George W. Kimball of Rockingham, E. W. Robblns of Athens, Dana M. Cancdy of Whltlng ham, W. J. White of Newfane, John B. Galo of Guilford, Henry D. Al len of Wilmington, George T. Shanks of South Londonderry, P. H. Johnson of Dover, T. W. Plimpton of Wardsboro, John Conway of Jamaica, John M. Knight of Dummerston, M. H. Powers of Vernon, and W. A. Eddy of Townshend. On motion of Mr. Byrne a committee on credentials was appointed by the chairman consisting of W. S. Allen of Whltlnghjlm, Jerome A. Amldon of Brat tleboro Jfnd Harry M. Boyd of Wilming ton. On motion of Mr. Shanks the chair appointed a committee on resolutions, consisting of G. T. Shanks. John E. Gale and George W. Kimball. On Mr. Allen's motion a committee was appointed to nominate a county committee for two years. They were W. H. Hancock of Whitlngham, B. A. Whlttemore of Gull ford, F. O. Downs of Dummerston, C. W. Butterfleld of Rockingham, H. B. Haus of Brattleboro, Harry Fox of Wil mington, E. W. Robblns, W. A. Eddy, M. IT. Powers, Frank Hescock of Dover, T. W. Plimpton, G. T. Shanks and W. J. White of Newfane. In reporting for the credentials com mltteo Mr. Amldon moved that all Demo crats present be considered members of the convention, and It was so voted. Then Chairman Chllds called for sugges tions for a county Wilson and Marshall club and MaJ. F. W. Chllds said an In formal runtogether of Brattleboro Dem ocrats was held the night before and It was their unanimous sentiment that such a club be organized by the con vention. He thought It would help In getting Windham county's share of speakers, among whom ho mentioned Horland Howe, candidate for governor, Governor Foss and William J. Bryan. E. R. Cook of Wilmington complicated the situation by moving that two presidents be elected, but that was not in accord with arrangements so he was sidetrack ed and the chairman called for the re port of the committee on nominations, hut no such committee had been ap pointed and after a little coaching the chairman switched back on the track and called for nominations from the floor. For senator from the south district lnated by A. P. Carpenter as a man who naa always maoe gooa in every posuion In which he had been placed. Chairman Chllds said that tho voting would be done by ballot as no "steam roller" methods were to be used. D. IT. Cray of Bellows Falls thought that would be a waste of time and Mr. Butterfleld moved that the secretary cast a ballot for Mr. Roel, which was done. For sen ator from the north district Dr. 0. M. George of Bellows Falls was nominated on motion of Mr. Robblns. Herbert G. Porter of Whitlngham and T. W. Davis of Grafton were chosen for assistant judges, being nominated by Major Chllds and Mr. Robblns respec tlvely. John E. Galo nominated Frank Jj. Wellman of Guilford for sheriff, pay lng him a compliment for his care and efficiency, and he was a unanimous choice. For Judges of probato John E. Gale was nominated by Eugene Johnson of Brattleboro and R. J. Wolfe of Bel lows Falls was nominated by Mr. Byrne, and there was no opposition to either. W, H. Heywood of Brattleboro was the nominee for high bailiff, on motion of F. W. Chllds, and tho choice of Arthur P. Carpenter for state's attorney, named by J. G. XJHery of Brattleboro, complet ed the list of nominations. Tho resolutions committee then re ported and heir report was adopted, as was also the report of tho committee appointed to name a county committee. The latter committee consists of R. S. Chllds of Brattleboro, T. W. Plimpton of Wardsboro, L. A. Brown of Wilming ton, L. H. Sawyer of Whitlngham, E. W. Robblns of Athens, Dr. P. P. White of Willlamsvllle and Dr. O. M. George of Bellows Falls. At this point Mr. Cook came back with his proposition for two presidents of the county club, one from Brattleboro and one from Bellows Falls. D.

Mr. Cray, chairman of tho town committee of his town, thought such action by the convention would be a reflection on the town committees.' It. S. Chllds tried to explain that this was to be a club broader than tho In dividual towns, wheroupon M): dray! exclaimed! "You are trying to mix things up, and you know It. You can do what you want here In-Brattleboro, nut Rockingham will take care or Itself." Mr, Byrne suggested one president and five vice presidents. M. J, Moran of Brattleboro thought that there were of ficers enought and that the matter ought to be dropped If there was going to bo much opposition. Mr. Ullery thought the town commit tees could not be depended upon. He said that as ono of tho state committee ho had written to all the town commit tees In the county and had received re piles from only five, one being Mr. Cray. Ho asked the chairman to put a motion that a county club bo organized, but sbmo time elapsed before tho motion was put, as Mr. Cray, R. S. Chllds and F. W. Chllds pulled oft a verbal sparring match, In which Mr. Cray said: "If wo had a cbunty committee that wonted to work and was ready to work we wouldn't need any moro officers." Fnally It was yoted to organize the club, Mr. Cray voting for it, and Dr. E. R. Lynch of Brattleboro thought It would be well for the convention to name tho president and have tho towns name tho vice presidents. Mr. Byrne nomin ated for president Mai. F. W. Chllds. and In his speech of acceptance he re- rerreu to Mr. Ullery as "the best state committeeman wo ever had." Mr. Ullery then made a suggestion which clarified the nlr, which was that the chairman of tho town committees bo elected vice presidents. This was done a. far as possible, and after taking up a collection and receiving subscriptions tho conven tion adjourned. The list of vice presidents of the club Is: E. W. Robblns of Athens, A. P. Car penter of Brattleboro, C. P. Stlckney of Brookllno, Fred H. Johnson of Dover, E. H. Brown of Dummerston, N. A. Blodgett of Grafton. John E. Galo of Guilford. William B.

Fowler of Whitlngham. H. D. Allen of Wil mington and F. H. Robblns of Wind ham. Following is the text of the platform presented by the committee on resolu tions and adopted: Wo reaffirm our allegiance to the principles of Democracy, as expressed In tho platforms adopted In our state and national conventions. We heartily endorse the nomination of Wilson and Marshall as candidates for president and vice-president. We favor the election to public office of men of ability and industry, as op posed to men of great wealth and am bition, who have usually held the high est executive offices within tho gift of the voters of this state, and therefore heartily endorse the nominations mado by the Vermont state Democratic con vention. We favor the removal of the time lock from the Vermont constitution, so that any session of the legislature may pro pose amendments thereto' for consider ation by the people. We favor the elimination of tho Sep tcmber elections, and the choosing of state-and cornrtj uilirorsat a. general election to be held In November bien nially. We favor uniformity of laws In all states of the Union, so far as local conditions will permit. We favor government aid for good roads, and the establishment of the par cels post. We favor the election of all executive officers. local and national, by direct vote of the people. We pledge our earnest support to the ticket this day nominated. G. T. SHANKS. GEORGE W. KIMBALL. JOHN E. GALE. Committee on Resolutions. The New Third Party, The third party state convention held at Burlington Tuesday July 23 and at tended by D7 participants, not chosen as delegates, but acting In an Individual capacity, did not Indicate, either by Its size or by the prominence of those who attended, a formidable movement. The fact that there was a division In this small party and that Wallace Batchelder, the best known Roosevelt man In tho state, refused to have anything to do with a third party state ticket indicated a lack of harmony at the outset which does not promise well for a large fol lowing for the movement. Not a few of the planks In the plat form endorse principles already favored by the Taft administration or bv the Republican party of Vermont. It is rather amusing that a Roosevelt party should demand publicity of campaign ex penses in view of Roosevelt's unwilling ness to make public the enormous amount of money used In his behalf be fore the Chicago convention. There is no need of a third party In Vermont or out of It. There has been no fraud In the Taft nomination. There Is no good reason, why any Republican should support Rev, Frazer Metzger for governor In preference to Hon. Allen M. Fletcher. Mr. Fletcher's experience in public affairs has given him an excel lent training for larger service. Mr. Metzger Is without experience In public affairs. The Journel believes that the great majority of Republicans will re main Republicans and It sees no Indi cation of permanency In the newt party. Montpeller Journal. The Hyde Park Inn.

Bethel Man It Shocked at the Attitude of the Third Term Candidate and Re fuses to Support Him. Wallace Batchelder of Bethel, one of tho leading and most active Progres sives of Vermont, Rough Rider and warm personal friend of Colonel Theo dore Roosevelt, has announced that he can no longer suppqrt Roosevelt for President. Tho break came when he re ceived a telegram from Colonel Roose velt confirming tho authenticity of a for mer telegram to the effect that the col onel wished no candidates Indorsed who would not support Roosevelt electors. Mr. Batchelder, In his fight against "bosslsm" In Vermont, had been advo cating the Indorsement by tho Progres sives of the Democratic candidate for governor, H. B. Howe. Upon Colonel Roosevelt's .confirming the authenticity of his first telegram, Mr. Batchelder sent him a telegram expressing deep grief at the shattering of his Ideal and renounc ing tho ex-President ns his political leader. The telegram follows: "Your telegram received. I am shock ed. "For more than four months, I, who am a poor man with a wife and two little boys to support, have worked lit erally night and day, without fear, fa vor or hope of reward, for the Progres sive cause and have believed that you were that cause personified. I have' neglected my business, earned no money and am many dollars poorer than I was that evening last March when I dined with you at Oyster Bay, after being summoned there by you. "I supposed that I was fighting for the real rule of the people and against bosses and bosslsm. Your telegram re ceived this morning stating that the tel egram of July 20, purporting to be sign ed by you, Is substantially authentic, makes it plain that you direct me and men In every state that we must not vote for any candidate for any ofllce, no matter how honest, able, efficient or progressive ho may be, unless that can didate will agree to pay for our votes by supporting Theodore Roosevelt for President of the United States again by supporting Roosevelt electors. "I was a member of your regiment In 1898. For 14 years I have felt more af fection for you than for any other per son on earth except the members of my own Immediate family. It Is a terrible wrench, Colonel, but I cannot fool my self, and I must be straightforward and frank with you, as you know I always have been. "With grief, the depth of which you cannot know, I have decided, after one of the hardest fights I have ever been forced to put up, that I cannot longer support you for President of the United States. WALLACE BATCHELDER." FIRE CAUSED FOUR DEATHS. Glen Falls House at Lake Morey In Falrlee Was Burned Early Tuesday Morning With Frightful Results.

This Is an old, old poem that has started on the rounds again: A pretty deer Is a dear to me, A hare with downy hair; A hart I lovo with all my heart, But I cannot bear a bear! A boy In writing right may write To "write" and still bo wrong. For write and rite are neither right, And don't at all belong. Quail do not quail before a storm, A bough will bow before It; We cannot rein the rain at all. No earthly power reigns o'er It Tho springs shoot forth each -spring, and shoots Shoot forward, one and all; Then summer kills the flowers; It leaves n The leaves to fall In fall! Tommy at Dinner. Tommy went out to dine at a friend's house one evening. When the soup was brought Tommy did not touch his and the hostess, looking over, said: "Why, Tommy, dear, what's the mat ter? Aren't you hungry tonight?" "Yes," replied Tommy, "I'm quite hungry but I'm not thirsty." Judge. Harry K.

Honeywell was pilot and Jt. F. Donald son aid. President Taft has dispelled tho Im pression that has existed In the minds of many persons that the acquisition, re tention and upkeep of tho Philippine Islands have been a heavy burden on the American taxpayers. In response to a resolution! calling for a statement of the total cost of the Philippines, the President sent to the House a special message In which he said that tho Is lands have actually paid for themselves, with the balance In their favor In all Items except the increased cost to the army and navy on their account. Consumptives Helped by Tuberculosis Medicine It is. folly to believe that Consumption differs from every other disease in not requiring the use of any specific medicine1 for Its cure. The trouble has been that none was known until the many cures effected by Eckman't Alterative began to be realized. Now, for ten years, an enor mous mass of voluntary and tnankful tes timonials from persons who consider that they owe their lives to this remedy have been 'accumulating. Surely plenty of time to demonstrate Its lasting value. You can write to any of tbem. Here Is one: 6323 Glrard Ave., Philadelphia, Pa.

There is a great demand for tenements and most of the articles used in the construction of a home are cheaper now than they have been for several years, especially in the line of Clapboards, Shingles, Pulp Plaster, Cement, etc., which are usually most expensive. People have come to realize that the best grade of Red Cedar Shingles are far ahead of any slate or prepared roofings to use on a house. 95 per cent of all the houses built in Springfield, Holyoke and other small cities are covered with cedar shingles for the reason that they are much cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. A nice grade of red cedar shingles makes as good a looking roof as you can possibly have and they are much cheaper than slate and will cost less for repairs. These will last for at least 40 years. We will furnish you the material for a house on very easy terms, so that almost anyone can build a comfortable home. If you are contemplating building a home, come in and talk it over.
