Speaking of the speeches made by
President Harrison on his recent
journey which by the way have been
published in full by the NelU York
World and in phamphlet form by the
MuH and Express ex-senator Nc
Donald of Indiana said some time be-
fore he died:
The democratic state committee had
a careful observer in attendance on
the occasion of the delivery of many
of these speeches for the purpose of
taking advantage of any indiscretions.
Not a single instance occurred where
any attack could be made that was
worthy of the committees attention.
Considering the freedom with which
the President delivered himself, this
is a marked tribute. AS Senator Haw-
ley has said, ''No public man among
the past or present citizens of the
United States ever expressed himself
more wisely, more feicitously or more
appropriately than did the President"

IS ELECTROCUTTON 4 SUCCESS

If the reports of the instantaneous
and painless death of the four muir
derers at Sing Sing recently are YER
flied, there will be a sudden change in
popular feeling toward the new meth
cd of judicial taking off known as ell
ectrOcutiOn. The bungling way in
which the machinery worked when
Kemmler was executed Mortified the
country. In this second experiment
however, the electricians profited by
their former experience, and the
death of condemned men, APPARENTLY,
was as easy as any one could hope to
meet. Capital punishment is a terri
bic thing at best, but so long as it is
regarded as essential to the security
of society it should be administered
in most certain and most merciful
way. Decapitation, which is the fa-
vorite mode in some parts of Europe,
Is hopelessly repugnant to American
sensibilities, and hanging is a wretch
ed and barbarous device which is only
tolerated in this country because it
mas been the general opinion that
there was nothing better to be had.
1t begins to look, however, as if the
dynamo might eventually take the
place of the rope in all of the States

4 MODEL 81 VINGS BANK.

From 1884 to 1888, Gov. Page was
Inspector of savings banks in Vermont,
and it hardly necessary to say that he
made a very careful study during this
time of the subject of savings bank
investments. He became satisfied
that there was a large and growing
number of the people Of our state who
did not believe in western and south
ern investments. First, because as a
matter of patriotism they wished to
see Vermont money used to foster
and build up Vermont industries.
Second, because they believed that
the practice of loaning money through
western loan agents, OftentimeS irreS-
ponsible and dishonest, without any
! personal knowledge whatever on the
part of the bank managers as to the
value of security loaned upon, would
sooner or later lead to losses.
Those who carefully read Gov.
Pages reports to the legislatures dur
ing his incumbency of the Office of in
spector of finance, will remember his
the gallant fight which he made
to have the law changed with refer
ence to the amount of western loans
which savings banks could hold. On
retiring from the position of savings
bank inspector, he decided to organ
ize a savings institution which should
meet this demand for a purely Yer
mont savings bank. He therefore
organized at Hyde Park the Lamoille
County Savings Bank & Trust Co., ,and
called into its management two attor
neys who have had large experience
as money loaners, and two farmers'who
combine with sound judgment as to
the value of real estate, a successful
experience of a quarter of a century
each in loaning money on mortgage
securities.
The institution opened its doors for
business Jan. 21, 1889, and its growth,
which has, we believe, no parallel in
the history of Vermont's savings
banks, has demonstrated the popular
ity of the principle upon which it was
founded. Not dollar of its funds has
been loaned outside of the state No
investment is made without careful
investigation of the security on which
loan is made. Absolute security rath-
er than high rates of interest is the
governing principle with reference to
all its investments.
1t accepts no loans paying more
than per cent. interest, preferring
that rate on security which is known
from the personal investigation of it's
directors to be abundant, to eight or
ten per cent. on property recommend
ed solely by a western loan agent
whose chief object too often is to have
the loan made so that he can get his
commission.
Paying, as it does, the depositors
taxes, where deposits do not exceed
$500, it finds 4 per cent. all it can pay
to depositors, and this sum COM
pounded semi annually, it guarantees
to pay. We give below the almost
phenomenal growth of the institution
since ifs organization.

Senator Henderson of Nebraska,
president pro tenn. of the senate, has
been visiting Vermont for the first
time, and seems to have greatly en-
jOyed the bracing atmosphere and
piscatory advantages of Lake Cham
plain and vicinity. While realizing
the difficulties of political forecasting,
he says that at present Harrison sup
ersedes all others in favor among the
people of Nebraska. Secretary Blaine's
often-reinstated assertion that he is
not a candidate for the presidential
nomination is bearing fruit. People
are beginning to take him at his word.
Blaine has long been a favorite with a
large contingent of voters, and his re-
ciprocity successes have added to his
popularity immensely; yet Harrison
enjoys the advantage of appearing
before the country in an entirely new
light. People now realize that he has
given a clean and efficient administra-
ton Moreover, the success of his
southern and western trip has been a
wonderful eye-Opener. The opposi-
ton, heretofore untiring in its efforts
to ridicule and belittle the president,
has been silenced; and the echoes of
many able and eloquent speeches are
heard Throughout the land. Nebraska
stands not alone in her admiration of
President Harrison. He has the hon
or and respect of the whole people to
a degree not possessed by some presi-
dents

WHEREAS, there has been filed in my Office
by the orator, John u. Teller of Barton in the
County of Orleans and State of Vermont, his
petition of foreclosure against Quartus Z. and
Orleans and State of Vermont, setting forth
in substance that said Quartus II. and Jane ID.
Graves on the 1st day OF February A. ID. 1880,
duly executed to said petitioner a mortgage
deed of certain lands in Glover in the said
County of Orleans, described as follows:
Being the northern half OF lot No. %; also
the southerly quarter of said lot, and also ten
acres in a square form lying in the north east
corner of the southwest quarter of said lot.
Conditional for the payment Of thirteen
promissory notes dated February l, 1890: the
first note for one hundred and ten dollars, and
the remaining twelve notes for two hundred
dollars each, executed by the said Quartus =.
Graves, and made payable to the said John p.
Teller or bearer, as follows: The first note on
or before February /, 1892, and the other notes
on or before February /, in each of the years
thereafter, until all said notes should be paid
in full with interest annually, and the petit
tioner averring that one years interest is now
due, and has been since February /, 1891; and
praying that the equity Of redemption OF the
said petionees in the premises might be fore
closed agreeably to law.
And, whereas, it being made to appear that
said petionees are without the State so that
personal service of said petition cannot be
made upon them, therefore IL is ordered that
the said petitonees be ordered TO appear be-
fore the Court of Chancery next to be holden
at Newport, within and for the County OF Or
leans on the I'd day of September, A. ID. 1891,
then and there in said court to answer 70 the
foregoing petition of the orator, by the publt-
cation of the above substance of his petition
in the Orleans County Monitor, weekly
newspaper published at Barton for three sue
cessive weeks, the last of which publications
to be not less than 20 days prior TO the SAID
September term of said Court Of Chancery.
Given under my hand at Newport, this 9th
day of July, A. ID. 1891.

An UNPARALLELED REFUNDING
RATE.

The unanimity with which the Dem
ocratic financial authorities speak
slightingly of Secretary Fosters sue
cess in refunding the outstanding AZ
per cent. bonds at per cent. is sim
ply an exhibition of their jealousy.
They are like the people who believed
that no good could come out of Naza
reth. Yet so low rate of interest in
a refundiug operation has never be-
fore been reached in this country.
We have been told by the Democratic
press that money is scarce, that
free silver must be adopted as a
policy to secure more money for the
country's needs, but the government
finds money so plentiful that it can
get over fifty millions at less than 2
per cent and that, too, at time when
the same authority insists that the
government is bankrupt. There is
nothing so convincing as the practi-
cal financial argument to be found in
this transaction for refuting all their
stories about the Treasury finances.
The government can pay dollar for
dollar what it owes, and everybody
knows it, and its credit is so good that
it can borrow money lower than any
nation on the globe. And Republican
financial management and legislation
have made this possible. Press.

The southern newspapers are just
now conducting an interesting warm
weather agitation as to the necessity
for the adoption of a new name for the
civil war. This agitation indicates a
serious sensitiveness as to issues now
dead and buried, though its motive is
quite worthy and natural. There
never was time when better feeling
existed between north and south. No
nOrtherner can travel extensively on
the other side of Mason and DiXon's
line without marvelling at the for
oearance and good temper of those
to whom the great conflict brought
complete and immediate ruin. As a
clear-headed speaker limited the other
day in the Kentucky constitutional
convention, the south has risen and
brushed off its cobwebs. Slavery as
an Institution has departed forever,
and the very men who fought so
strenuosly for its continuance twenty
five years ago would to-day eagerly
join hands with their whilom oppo-
nents to prevent its restoration. 1t is
perhaps precisely for this reason that
the southern people are inclined to
resent epithets that are supposed to
carry an imputation of dishonor on
themselves or their fathers

Those Amendments.

A notion prevails here among some of the
lawyers that none of the amendments car
ried at the recent election. The idea is
based on guess at the vote and an inter-
probation of the constitutional provision re-
lating to the vote on amendments to the or
ganic law. This provision appears to be
loosely drawn, and to require that where
more than one amendment is voted for,
each shall receive 4 majority of all the
votes cast, or else it fails. \ common sense
view of it would indicate that such amend
ments would carry as received i majority
of the votes cast for each That would GER
tainly be the case if only one amendment
was voted for, and ought to be so in the
case of several of them. But the fact is,
that it is all guess work, as the vote on none
of the amendments is known, even approx
mately, and won't be until the official count
is made
1t is believed that the Judiciary amend
ment and the interest and the ballot amend
ments passed by small majority each, un-
less the constitutional bubble mentioned
shall defeat them.
