J. Rolfe Searles Latest As-
pirant to Throw His Hat
Into the Ring
The politicai pot is boiling- over.
Ali you have lo do nowadays is to
rtir the kettle a little and you get
new candidates for office and politicai
gossip that has even the wise ones
guessinf.
The latest and hottest politicai sit
uatoli has been createci in the con
test for Caledoniu County senator
ship. Some months ago Dr. J. I).
Bachand, the enterprising- St. Johns
bury dentist announced his candi
daey for the senatorship and then
turned out as the supervisor of the
General Wood campaign for this sec
tion. Just how much this increased
his politicai prestige is a question.
William P. Russell of Kirby, u vcry
solid and estimablc citizen and pros
prrous faimer, carne into the Sena
toiial field. He has man- friends to
urge bis candidaev. Soon after carne
the announccment of the candidacy
of Frank T. Taylor of Harcfwick. Mr.
Taylor is likewisc a substantial cit
izen and had an excellent record as a
representative ,fom his town in the
last Legislature.
This seemed quite a formidable ar
ra y of talent until into the field last
we.ek carne our esteemed attornev
Charles A. Shields. Mr. Shields has
held about every office in the gift of
the voters of St. Johnsbuiy and
has always shown a devotion to duty
and abilitv which has made him a
very sti ong' nublic sei'vant. His en
try into the field put an entirely new
face on the Senatorial situation.
Today a new bombshell was thrown
into the politicai not by the announce
ment that Attorney J. Rolfe Searles
had thrown his hat into the Senao-
lial ring. The mcntion of Searles
biiiijjs to mind a red hot eampaip.n
er, fornier chairman of the Republi
can State eommittee, a sterling nublic
ofiìcial and one to be reckoned with
.seriously in the Senatoria! situalion.
With the Senatorial riritnarics the
second Tuesday in September and
five avowed candidates in the field,
the first of July starts off with the
politicai pot sizzling. There is stili
a chaneo for favorite sons and "dark
horses" and as this is presidential
year and about everyone is nlaying
olitics it would not be surpiising to
see other candidates for Senator an
nounced anyclav.
