a giant combat. of the greatest CONNER

some of the methods of high finance to
their last analysis, is called The Inoc-

Death of Col. Joel c. Baker.

The state of Vermont has lost one of
its stanchest and most respected citizens
in the death of Col Joel c. Baker of
Rutland, who died at his home in that
city early Monday morning, Death was
due to breakdown from nervous prostra-
ton Col Baker was born in Dandy
in 1888, was educated in the public schools
and at the Poultney academy, and studied
law with preceptors in Dandy and Wal
lingford. He enlisted in 1862 as a private
in company b of the 9th Vermont regi-
ment. He had an admirable record as a
soldier and rose steadily by promotion
until he became captain of his company.
At the fall of Richmond he was among the
first to enter the city, and with his own
hands pulled down the Confederate flag
flying over the residence of Jefferson
Davis On his return from army service
he resumed the practice of law in Walling
ford, but in 1868 moved to Rutland,
where the remainder of his life was spent.
He had large law practice, held va
rious positions of responsibility outside
his profession, and enjoyed the full con-
fdence of the Rutland community, as he
| did of many friends and associates
throughout the state. Col. Baker was a
stanch Republican, and had been a prom
inent factor in Republican conventions fol
