Of the Democratic State committee

upon the time and place for holding
q State convention to nominate q
candidate for governor, railroad com
missioner, justices Of the supreme
court and judges Of the court OF chan
Gerry appeals. Sentiment OF the oom-
mitteemen seems to favor two conven-
tions-an early one to name candi-
dates for the supreme bench and the
chancery court Of appeals, and later
one to nominate candidates for Cover
nor and railroad commissioner. Sew
eral cities are in the field for the
gubernatorial convention, among

A New Insurance AGENT.

Fred W. Putnam of the firm of
Child & Putnam of Brattleboro and
state agent for the Travellers Insur-
ance Company of Hartford, Conn.,,
spent Sunday in town and on Mon
day made transfer of the Travellers
Accident and Health business, which
has been conducted by Fl. D. Bryant
for the past ten years and Glenn A.
Wilkins, who has represented the
company during the past few years.
The business and good will of both
Mr.. Bryant and Mr.. Wilkins was pur-
chased by A. N. Camp, who for sever
al years has been in the employ of
Hon. c. S. Page of Hyde Park. The
business was purchased by Mr.. Camp
for the reason that during the COM
ing summer he wishes to be out-of-
doors as much as possible on account
of the close confinement to office work
the past year. For the present he
will continue to spend a portion Of
his time in the office at Hyde Park,
and in the fall when the poultry food
season opens up will resume his posi-
tion in charge of that department.
The Travellers is known the world
over as one of the most reliable acci
dent companies doing business. The
business as purchased by Mr. Camp
is composed of some of the best
known people in this and adjoining
towns. Owing to the increasing bus
mess of District Agent Glenn Wilkins,
he thought it advisable to divide the
work and thus give his undivided at
tention to the life insurance part of
the business. Mr.. Wilkins will have
an office for the present in the Ger
tenniaI block over Powers & Chene. .@ $
rooms, and Mr. Camp will have a desk
there. Later they expect to be To-
Gated in the new browne block.

started and test made next Satur-
day and it is confidently expected
