Do you ask, "Where can do this and
have my money absolutely safe ?" Let
us give you some facts. The Lamoille
County Savings Bank and Trust Co. OF
Hyde Park is an institution run on tho
following principles:-
1st. Not a dollar is loaned without
the personal knowledge of some one OF
the Board Of Directors that the loan is
safe beyond question.
ID. It is run as a home institution.
Every dollar is loaned in LamOille and
adjacent counties, and every worthy en-
terprise in the vicinity of the towns
whence the deposits of the Bank come,
is fostered and encouraged in preference
to ether investments, so far as it can be
done with absolute safety.
Sd. Under no circumstances is dol
lar invested in any western mortgage or
other Out-of-the-State security. We
might perhaps pay our depositors one
half of one per cent. per annum more
interest by incurrng little addition
al risk, if no loss should come, but we
believe there is to-day ''long-felt
want in Vermont for savings instisu-
ton which will loan its funds at home.
1t is needed that Vermont may not
become impoverished. 1t is needed for
the building up and fostering home in
situations. Vermont towns will not
boom without money any more than
towns beyond the Mississippi and in
Alabama. 1t is needed for the greater
safety Of the savings of widows and
orphans as well as of all those who look
rather to the absolute security Of the
principal than to high rates of interest.
With no disparagement to our neigh
bors who prefer to occupy western
fields we offer to the depositing public
the Lamoille County Savings Bank and
Trust Co. as an institution organized to
meet the demand for strictly home in
uestment Savings Bank. That such a
demand exists, and that the people are
ready to bestow their confidence and
encouragement upon such an institu-
ton, is evidenced by the fact that the
aggregate of the small deposits alone in
this Bank-not counting any in excess
of S1000-were at the end of the first six
months of its business, $57, 1890, a
record without parallel. we believe, in
the history of Vermont Savings Banks.
4th. Under no circumstances does
this Bank take over per cent. 1t would
not, knowingly, make an investment
which would pay over per cent. The
safest class of loans and securities will
command money at per cent. The
Bank pays the State tax of x-tenths
of per cent. on deposits in lieu of all
taxes to the depositor. 1t must then
be evident that per cent. per annum is
all that the Bank can sAFELYPAY. This
rate it will pay. 1t is guaranteed and
rests on no contingency. Interest will
be compounded semi annually if not
withdrawn.

ON GETTYSBURG FIELD.
Graves of Heroes Buried in the

GETTYSBURG, May 30.-Decoration
day was clear and beautiful. Special
trains OH all the railroads commenced
pouring in visitors at 10 o'clock from
Harrisburg, Baltimore, Washington,
New York and other cities, and by
o'clock the streets were lined with
pushing crowd of humanity. The con-
gressional train bearing the members of
the senate and house arrived at 1915,
and then pulled rapidly out to the rail-
road cut at the first days field. Here
the statesmen left the cars, and Hon.
Edward Mcpherson, clerk Of the ma
tlOnal house, welcomed them in behalf
of the Battlefield Memorial association,
of which he is a director. Col.
Bachelor. government historian of
the battle, took charge of the
party and explained in terse and
graphic language the battle of the first
day, the death of Reynolds and the re-
treat of the First and Eleventh corps
throughout the town. From here the
train returned to the Round Top branch
and passed along the very center of the
battlefield to Little Round Top, VIII ere
the VALLEY of Death skirts the hill
at this point. Col. Bachelor detailed the
engagement along the Federal left,
Longstreet's assault, the awful carnage
of the wheat field and the death of
Farnsworth. Again returning to the
cars, the return was made to Hancock
station, where, after describing the
charge of Pickett, and the wounding of
the Second corps commander OH
the third day, the party took
carriages prepared for them and
drove through the soldiers national
cemetery and over Culp's hill to

PANTY spoken of by Republican organs

If it we're true that the Democrats have

The assumption that the honest and

no annoying confirmation in any voting

the gains have been so marked and uni

Republicans have been the main bene-

Maryland is another Democratic state

Republicans. There was some dive rsity
as to points of special objection, but 100
of the number were opposed to the bill,
many of them very positive in express
sion. The few in favor were mostly
professional politicians, or men who
read HORACE GREELEY in their youth,
and favored anything labeled protec-
ton. The significant fact was that even
a majority of the Republicans have dis
covered that the protection their party
offers is not what they need or will sup
port. 1t would be desperate task to
rally party in support of a policy that
the majority believe is destructive to
their interests,
