The Boston Journal scores Senators
Proctor and Dillingham; because of
their veting against the ship subsidy
bill. The senators would probably be
pleased to keep in touch with the
Journal but in choosing between the
criticism of that paper and of their
constituency they will probably risk
the displeasure of the Journal. They
undoubtedly feel that they have acted
in accordance with the wishes of a
majority of the people of the state
they represent and although they
were obliged to vote in opposition to
other New England senators it is not
the first instance in which representa-
tives of the state have been placed in
a similar position.

While much disappointment is ex-
pressed among the followers Of DR..
Webb because of his Withdrawal from
the contest for the governorship his
action will be likely to increase his
popularity through the state. Owing
to the great wealth of the two candi-
dates and the fact that while they are
legally citizens of this state they have
usually been regarded as citizens of
New York their candidacy has been
the cause of many unpleasant COM
ments from the press of this state and
from our neighboring states. w hile
DR.. Webb has had every reason to ex-
pect that he would win if he remained
in the field he apparently preferred
to withdraw from the contest and, as
far as this action could, put stop to
all this criticism. This attempt on
his part to bring about a more har-
monious condition in the state should
win for him the respect of every Yer
monter.

The inquiry of Editor Hays of the
Burlington Clipper concerning listers
valuation of the stocks of the savings
banks and trust compa nies, and the
national banks of the state, reveals
some very interesting facts. OF the
sixty-one banks whose stocks are
quoted, the Lamoille County Savings
Bank and Trust Co., of Hyde Park,
heads the list, it's valuation being 100.
There are only two other savings
banks and trust companies in the
state-the Montpelier and the Bur
ington, the former 135, the latter 125
that are listed as high as 12O, thus
placing the Lamoille County Savings
Bank ahead of anything else in the
state. There are 80 institutions whose
stock exceeds the par value mark of
100. There are 80 institutions whose
stock is listed at par. Three national
banks are listed above 90, one above
so, four at above 20, three at above CO.,
and only one below So When one re-
calls the fact that Hon Carroll S. Page
is the president and guiding factor in
control of the affairs of the Lamoile
Savings Bank and Trust Co., it's high
standing Is not difficult to understand.

Fletcher ID. Proctor is the new can
didate for the office of governor, and
is now opposed to Gen. Mccullough,
who his friends state will remain in
the field. When it is considered
that DIR. Webb withdrew from the
contest because he felt that there was
a feeling on the part of a majority of
the people of the state that man
should be selected who had been
longer and more closely identified
with the interests of the state it seems
only natural to conclude that the ad-
vent of Fletcher d. Proctor into the
field will be welcomed by many who
felt they could not support either of
the other candidates. Mr.. Proctor is
a comparatively young man but the
record which he has made is a very
enviable one. Gen. Mccullough is
also a very able man, but he is opposed
by man who is looked upon
throughout the state as a typic al
Vermonter and who is in every way
fitted to fill the office in a most cred
liable manner. Had it not been that
there was strong call for him from
nearly every section of the state Col.
Proctor would not have allowed his
name to be used in connection with
the office but now that he has decide
to become candidate his supporters
will, in all probability, be sufficiently
numerous to insure his nomination.

Tuesday morning the case of State
vs. Henry Fullam for larceny was
begun. This case was tried last Sep
tember and the jury disagreed. The
witnesses were about the same as be-
fore except that the testimony of the
manufacturers of the blankets, and
the wholesale dealers who sold them
to Lane & Davis, was introduced to
show that they were not made until
after 1895 when Fullam swore he
bought them of one Ernest Sawyer
in Lane & Davis store. Sawyer has
not been produced by either side, but
both sides claim to be anxious to find
him. The case was closely contested
on both sides and the evidence was
closed in the forenoon and one ar
gument made, and the arguments
closed in the afternoon. The Judges
charge was given about six o'clock,
and the jury came in at II p. m. with
a verdict of not guilty.
Horace Graham and Geo. Young for

Court adjourned Saturday morning g
until Wednesday at a. m. on account

hobnaiied boots can do either, and,
what is worse, most Of them are so con-
fident Of their own ability that they
will not take the precaution to employ
competent guide.
Nothing attests the nerve and the
courage and endurance Of a man as
does mountain climbing, and 1t Is quite
as much Of science as any other form
Of athletic sport. Experienced men
can tell at glance the safest and the
most accessible paths and where and
between what hours there will be the
least risk of falling stones. Swiss
guides who have been taken to the
Andes and to the Himalayas and even
to our own American mountains have
never failed to accomplish ascents
which men without experience have
considered impossible. 1t Is simply a
matter OF ability acquired by long and
patient study, yet any ordinary tourist
lmaglnes that because one man can ne
compllsh the feat another may do the
same even IL he has never seen a
glacier. The greatest number of acci-
dents occur upon Mont Blanc, because
that is the easiest to reach and most
fashionable of all the Swiss mountains,
but at the same time 1t is the most dan
gerous because Of meteorological con-
dltions. The weather is likely to change
at any time, and when a snowstorm
comes the danger is greatest.
While a party of American tourists
were descending the Matterhorn some
time ago a mass Of rock fell and hurled
several Of the party down an Ice gorge,
killing them instantly. The illustra-
tion to the right shows how the acct
dent occurred. The party was de-
scendlng the mountain when the slip
which caused the fatality occurred.

During last year, according to a re-
port recently issued by the Alpine Club,
119 persons lost their lives while climb
ing the Alps-more than double the
number for the previous year. Most Of
the, accidents occurred in the neigh
borhood of ChamounIx and were due to
the foolhardiness and inexperience of
tourists. The number of accidents suf-
fered by experienced climbers was COM
paratlvely small.
Switzerland and the Tyrol are becom-
ing the holiday ground for more and
more people every year, and 1t may be
expected the lives lost will be In the
same proportion. The increased num-
