With the ex- ception of 1860, 1864 and 1878, when- ever the republican plurality in the state contest has fallen below - 25,000 8 democratic president has been elect- ed by the country in November, This vear the entry of the progres- sive party in the campaign has com- plicated the situation. , One of the heaviest votes ever polled in the state is expected. . There ara five candidates for governor: Allen M. Fletcher of Cavendish, republican; Harjan B, Howe of St. Johnsbury, democrat; Rev. Fraser Metzger of Randolph, progressive; Clement F, Smith of Morrisville, prohibitionist; Fred W. Sufter of Barre, soclalist. One element of Interest entering in- to the election is the poasibllity that the legislature may have to determine who will be the next govermor. An election in Vermont is governed by the majority rule and am less than a majority throws the election of gov- ernor and other state officers into the legisiature. Such a situation arose In 1902 and a republican legislature elected a repub- lican governor. Chairman L. C. Williame of the re- publican state committee In review- ing the campaign sald: “Allen M. Fletcher, the republican candidate for governor, will be elect- ed by a liberal majority as will other members of the state ticket, I cannot make any estimate of what Mr. Fletch- er's margin will be on Tuesday, but | th it will be sufficient to bring about an election and the legislature will no have to chooss a_governor, The legis- lature will be overwhelming republi- can both in. the senate’ and in the house.” E. W. Gibson, one of the progres- #ive leaders, sald: “The recent campaign by Colonel ‘Rocsavelt In- the. state has been of i roa0I ot the. sisction 15 of ‘Trest result o slection is importancg to Varment because it will spark the hewinning of the end of a four-year strugele to defeat ths re- achine, Denouncement of Convention Likely. pt. 1.—The de: sugar con- Paid Tribute to | Apologizes To ~ General Boatl! | *Presiden Taf GOVERNOR BAI.DVIIVN LIKENS | PRESIDENT GOMEZ REGRETS i HIM TO LOYOLA.

Oyster Bay, N. ¥., Sept. 1.—In his letter to Benator Clapp, made public tonight, Colonel Roosevelt believes that he has a complete refutation of any testimony reflecting upon him which was given before the senate committee that investigated campaign conmtribu- tons. - “I have answered every question as fully, and explicitly as possible,” he sald. “I think I have covered the ground. Of course, I cannot go on indefinitely explaining the things which are always being brought up. They are brought up five milHon times jand-after T have explained them five | million times they are brought up ngain.»just as though I never explained em, Colonel Roosevelt found his trip to Vermont, from which he returneq this morning, an exhausting one.
