Vermont has been heard from in the
country's difficulties with Spain and
il war results she will make proud
record. Vermont has contributed to
war history before. Her record is
clean and filed with honor. She
will repeat herself Essex Record.
War is stern reality. What its
effects are to be no man can fortell.
1t may be true, as the more sanguine
of our statesmen represent, that a
conflict with Spain would end as
suddenly as it began, but suppose
that these surmises were wrong
that instead of mere clash of arms
resulting in a sea victory for the
United States, untoward events
made it plain that we were IN tor a
serious and long drawn out strug-
gle !? Is it not extremely probable
that something akin to panic
would result? Such being the case,
the banks would be the first to feel
the effects of the shock. We would
witness, if former crises mean any
thing, rapid withdrawal OF funds
and suspension of payments on the
part OF the weaker institutions, such
as occurred in 1898, to cite recent
example. The banks in larger cities
would protect themselves through
clearing. house alliances. but the
smaller banks would be without this
support. The casual reader may
consider this overdrawn, but it is a
| possibility that is not to be ignored

the business has been of the routine
order and large amount has been gone
through with. Monday and Tuesday
they were revising ''the poor debtors
list."-i. e. those who owe for delinquent
personal taxes, preparatory to handing the
list over to the sheriff on April 18th with
orders to collect or destrain. Two petit
tons were received for the relief of the
sufferers in the hailed out belt of last
summer. One was for 1000 bushels of
seed wheat and l,COo bushels of oats,
and the other was for cancellation of
taxes. The commissioners rejected both
petitions. The elevator tax cases were

The Building and Loan Statement.
The statement of the Building and
Loan Association published in this issue
shows satisfactory progress and profit
and we commend its perusal to all in
terested. There is one thing about a
building and loan association that makes
it one of the safest forms of investment
and that is the fact that its assets are of
the most secure and the risk of loss on
every loan decreases at least one per
cent every month. Another safeguard
is that but comparatively small amounts
OF cash are carried on hand and all cash
on hand is open to borrowers at every
meeting. One OF the greatest means of
profit to the association is the fact that
the expense account is so small and there
is where the local association is ahead Of
those associations which attempt to cover
large territories. The Pembina Building
and Loan has only one paid officer. the
secretary. As form of investing small
savings it is secure and profitable. A
new series was commenced on March Ist.
Stock is open to anyone and costs fifty
cents per month per share.
