which IS necessary to pass the document at the
treasury IN Justice to the Secretary this can
haruIy De withheld. The presumption is that oil
Is correct ont the proper epidence Of IL is toant.
"S' IL INC rue which restricts Senators to alb
oouoe W leupe was early regarded, some of tho
evils arising from this loose prnc,ce m;gb, be oI'
Waited.
Another practice has occasionally been exbb.
TED, somewhat analogous to the foregoing. Leave
OF absence for the remainder of the session has
been granted from and after day named. which
may be two, three or more days after that ON
which the appl cation is made. An individual so
situated, II pressed with anxiety on nccount of
friends or business, might be tempted to draw bis
pay ana immediately retire, and thus secure his
per diem for some days afei his arrival at home.
Whether frauds have actually been committed
under this practice, is not now the object of jn-
quIryj Il in TACT, 1t offers facilities for their com
mission, it should be promptly reformed Should
leave oil absence be always restricted as TO have
lis commencement from the day on which il is
granted,and should the debenture he 90 formed ss
to contain from each individual certificate of
mileage and attendance, remedy for these evils
would probably be attained.
These suggestions, Gentlemen, are not made in
consequence OF complaints or accusations from
any quarter, nor for the purpose merely Of saving
to the State lew dollars of expense but rather
because Important principles, MS well as the repu-
tntlon oil This .body and that of the individuals
composing it, are believed to be somewhat nvoly-
ed would have the character of the Senate of
Vermont not only pure but unsupported.
congratulate YOU Gentlemen, upon the pros
pect OF short, harmonious and | trus, profita
BILE session. The labors OF your predecessors The
last year, so incessant, so fatguing and so happily
conducted, seem TO have left bu, little, comparn
tively,now to be doDe,and the condition habits and
feelings of your constituents, indicate the propri
ETY. oil outstanding the resources of the State, in
some measure committed to your care, so far as
will consist with a faithful performance of duty.
| HaIter myself that every Senator, anticipating
but brief absence, has SO arranged his domestic
concerns as to obviato the necessity of a single
days absence from his place until the final adjourn
ment, and thus we may furnish an example wor.
thy the imitation of our SUCCESSORS in ali future
time. II will he my constant endeavor, SO far az
ability and opportunity permit, to aid you in the
performance of your labors, and il practicable,
bring them to speedy ard profitable conclusion.

BEnNINeroN, Oct. Oath. 1910.

Ma. EDIroR,-Aly attention has just been cal
led to the report of the Bank Inspector of the
State of Vermont dated October 9th, lS40 in
which this reading occurs;
ain my examinations Of the past transactions
Of the Bank of Bennington find one OF the Di
rrctors was connected with firm of Brokers in
New York, under the firm of Swift, Mills & Co.
. II. Gay, the Director and Broker, was authorised
TO draw. by a resolution OF the Board of Direc-
tors, $4,000 from their deposits in the Boston
and Troy Banks. II appears from the Statement
Of the Bank, March 20lb 1888, that there was in
the hands Of Gay at that time $4,000. AS a Di-
rector Gay had perfect knowledge OF the condi-
lion of the Bank, he could broker make a
profitable business in purchasing up the bills OF
the Bank at discount. There was at that time a
large amount of bills in circulation, being $780,
$50, aud in 1899 the circulation less than S33,
. 000 Whether this reduction in the circulation OF
Sl50,000 was made by the purchase Of the bills
by Gay or not, does not appear
Every portion of this statement is untrue, so
far as my name is concerned but cannot con.
sslently overlook it, appearing as it does in pub
lie document, over an official signature, and inn
peachng the motives and conduct OF others con-
neced with public institutions. 4shcreforo think
it proper 10 state distinctly that was not connec-
ted with any house of Brokers or Bill Drawers in
New York, or elsewhere, at the time above speci-
fed the firm of Swift, Mills 81 Co. was not in
existence then nor within year afterwards, and
never was debtor to the BANK, or in any way
benefited by the use Of its funds, but was foI
months together, both before and after | left the
institution, lis largest creditor.
! never, while an officer or Director OF the
Bank, used any portion of its funds either per
sonay or through others, for the purpose of pur'
chasing it's bills at a discount in New York or any
where else, for the benefit of The Bank, or myself
or any other person; nor do | know or believe
that such use was at any time made OF its funds
by either Of its other officers or directors, while
was connected with the institution.
The books of the bank do not exhibit a charge
against me for the above named $4,000 and new
er did ; it was not in my hands at ALL except as the
agent of the Bank for the mere purpose OF reno
val from banks, in which, for want of security Of
the payment Of interest, we did not wish to leav'
it, and of placing il in another bank, whsIe boil
those objects were attained, and from whence i
was drawn for the sole and only purpose Of re
deeming the bills at par in the city oil Boston,
This agency was executed by order of the boar
Of Directors and az quickly as the public convey
ances could carry me, without the loss Of a singl
