CONVENTION REFLECTIONS.
Well, Doctor Mead won out. The
doughty lighter from Rutland secured the
gubernatorial nomination. It was a
close, sharp, even bitter fight, with a
narrow margin. But it n enough.
The second ballot brought him a majority
of three. His compact organization,
with the large lead he had over any single
competitor, landed him over the line.
Hia estimates cf initial strength were far
astray, but Fleetwoods were worse. The
Free Press figures given out right after
the caucuses were quite accurate, if we
! allow for tbe inevitable drift to the leader
' that followed. Doctor Mead developed a
! more loyal and enthusiastic support than
bis opponents conceded him. They
i joined him in a real j.illilicatioii and jubi
lation when the fltfht was won. The
Doctor showed a wi-,e magnanimity in
j his acc-ptauce MiMch. Time, willproba
! b!y heal whatever wounds have opened.

! having made tbe fUbt sin ijlo handed, be
I should I e Riv?n every fair chance to w in.
He got the votes of neariy all tbe un
1 pledged dcleitatis opposed to Mead.
j The question of the "night before"
j was, Will Mead win on first ballot?
i That be wuld nearly or quite waa evi
dent nt thBt stage. He hBtl a command
' ing lead, and was in position to attract
i tbe votes of doubtful ones. There are al
j ways some w bo like to follow a probable
Iwinuer. With the anti-Mead forces di-
tion utterance,
response to well defined sentiment on cer
tain issues, probably strengthened It
aomewbat. The resolutions were present
ed at a stage when they received close at
tention, and under the care taken to
formulate, publish and endorse them,
may be accepted aa the clear and unquea
tloned mandate of the party. There
should be no welching in tbe fall.
DeBoer'a fine address and his tact in
handling hard situations deepened tbe
impression that Vermont baa in him a
very strong man. Few could have held
tbe close attention of that iweltering con
vention for fifty minutes of manuscript
reading at that exciting atage aa he did.
Frank Greene has a lot of frienda in
Vermont who greeted him with fervor
when he stood up to read the platform.
Frank flushed with genuine pleasure at
the ovation.
Chairman DeBoer raised a laugh and
shout when he said that the convention
would proceed with the "first" ballot.
i a, it i.t t" veiled tbe Mead men. But
DeBoer waa right.
Sometimes a sharp crack that raises a
laugh counts for more in a popular as
semblage than a long argument. Wit

Both Mead and Fleetwood got recep

Mead's was a Jollification, Fleetwood's a
consolation, black, too, came In for a
greeting, and was hailed aa governor two
yeara hence. Maybe. Perhaps, though,
Montpelier may have something to aay
about this. And possibly Windsor coun

PRESS NOTES.
Rob Lawrence's presentation of Doctor
Mead was not eloquent, but was well
considered. Koger Hulburd made the hit
,f tha i.nnvention in presenting Fleet
wood. The Hyde Park man is the most
captivating speaker in Vermont. His
pleasing personality, rich and well modu
lated voice, easy gestures and perfectly
turned phrases never fail to win favor for
the speaker and his cause. Clarke Fitts'
crackling sentences pleased the Batchel
der contingent. Hapgood's name was
feebly spoken by a fellow Peruvian who
didn't seem altogether happy.
F.ditors Ho-ve and Belknap were heard
in tbe speechifying. Tbeir tarn storm
ing tours w ith Mason Stone have mado
orat,nrs of them.
Hugh Henry, the old war horsn frdm
Chester, in bis seconding pcecb, nrouaed
Mead enthusiasm by declaring that his
oppouenta dealt in calumny and vitupera
tion. Tben he proceeded to assail in a i
persnt-.al marwpcr an editor whose patriot
ism has never been qucaiioned for a
chance remark, adroitly and unjustly
turned into a slighting reference to "the
i little l.runze button." It was a cheap
j performance, all through, and when he
I seconded Mead in behalf of a "majority"
'of Windsor county, whose 80 votes were
' tbree-foiir.bs against bim, he was an
iswered by a chorus of noes from that
county's delegates.
It is too bad to rob Judge Gibson of
whatever pride be may have felt in receiv
ing a single vote cn the last ballot for
i srnvernnr, but the fact is it waa cast by a
Hulburd' Fin Speech.
There will probably be no serious dis
Bent from the suggeation that the oratori
cal bit of tbe Republican state convention
was made by Roger W. Hulburd of
Hyde Park, in bis speech nominating
Fleetwood to be tbe party's candidate for
novernor. The people who were there
and heard him know this is so, and many
others that were not there but know him
could expect nothing else ot him. And
he disappoints nobody that wishes him
well. St". Albana Messenger.

tbe attack ill-founded and inconsistent.
"Is this the first time there has beva talk
of money in Vermont politics?'1 in
quired a Mead speaker amid shouts of ap

He dropped a lieutenant-gov

tne bat, aud it couldn't be withdrawn.
A little attempted "dicker" framed up,
it it said, by a Mead delegate from Char
lotte or bhelburne, and a Leland enthusi
ast from Sprinatieid, failed to carry.
After the flrt ballot for governor, all the
delegates from Windsor county were in
vited into a side room and tbe door shut.
Then it was proposed by the Chittenden
county man to swap votes from that
county for Leland for lieutenant-governor
in return for votes fcr Mead on tbe next
j ballot. With indignant shouts of "No!
: No ! " the Windsor men rushed back into

I Hauuood wouldn't make it unanimous,

! For a candidate w ho wasn't a candi-
date, it was a testimonial to tbe popular
' strength of Cbarles W. Gates that, in a
close fight between leading rivals, he got
' eleven votes. Many others would have
'joined in bad the struggle continued
, longer. Gates w as recognized by alias
the promising "dark horse" in the event

The Fight Wa Not In Vain.
Our objection all along has not been so
much on the question of Mead's ability
as on his political methods and his refus
al to make public his campaign expenses, j
The energies of the opposition to Dr. j
Mead in this campaign have not been :
wholly wasted, wholly vain. The pennle ;
have been aroused In protest against the
old order of affairs, and although Mead
has pulled through we sbal! see in his!
scant victory the passing of methods of'
political procedure w bich have lost tbeir
effectiveness for the reason that the peo
ple are disgusted wilb them. Brattleboro
