For Vermont National Guard Encamp-

Rutland, July 16.- Mai. II. Edward
Dyer Of this city, who inspected all
the companies IN the frst battalion,
Vermont National Guard, states that
III his opinion the first battalion will
he in excellent condition for field SER
vice as soon as the companies can have
the benefit of few more out door
drills. The on-commissioned officers
appear TO be interested and we are well
informed and only lack experience in
their new positions.
The personnel Of the companies seems
excellent but III the opinion Of the in-
specting officer there Is too large a per-
centage Of men under 22 years Of age,
who are not sufficiently developed to
Withstand hardships Of q campaign,
The inspecting officer calls attention
to the fact that, as result of his IN
quiries, he is Of the opinion that the
regiment Is seriously handicapped BY
the use Of he camp ground near Fort
Ethan Allen. Company officers have as.
sured him that the use IL these grounds
Il detrimental To the best interests 81
their organizations while in camp, and
furthermore, that the enlisted men are
so much opposed TO these grounds that
good men very frequently decline to re-.
enlist entirely on this account These
officers think that the regiment would
be benefited II the encampment were
held IN different places throughout the
state, preferably near the smaller towns.

In Probate Blanks In Vermont
Districts
INTENTION OF A NEW LAW
The Commission Appointed BY Governor
Proctor Has Finally Sifted Down
the Mass and Hopes to Save
Money For State.

Under an act Of the last legislature,
commission Of three probate Judges
was appointed BY Governor Proctor to
formulate a uniform system Of blank
forms and record books to be used In
the probate courts Of the state. The
commissioners are; Judge M. "A. Biug-
ham Of Chittenden probate court, Judge
II. y. Alfred Of the Orleans probate
court and Judge A. +. Schwenk of the
brattleboro probate court
Iii the past it has been the custom
for each OF the twenty probate districts
OF the state to prepare and secure It'll
own blanks, and the first act of the
commission was to ask for complete
set from each court. When ocpies had
been secured from nearly ALL they had
a collection Of several hundred different
forms and i'll nearly as many different
sizes and shapes. Out Of this mass,
the commission set to work to arrange
q set of blanks that would meet all
requirements Of all the courts Of the
state and at the same time have as
few forms as possible III was further
planned to have all blanks Of uniform
size.
The commission has put in much time
and effort during the past six months,
first in arranging the selection and
choice Of forms, and then in editing the
same. The blanks have already underg
gone three careful revisions BY the
commission and are now ready for print
ing, the contract for the same going
to d. w. Edson Of Montpelier, whose
bid was the lowest Of the seven pre-
sented.
The bids are as follows: ID. w. Edison
Of Montpelier, 1896; Burlington Free
Press, $526.10; Tuttle company of Rut.
land, $464.l0; RuInford company Of
Concord, n. H., SAP; Opinion company
OF Bradford, $425; Brattleboro Re-
former, $429i Montpelier Argus, $500
The contract calls for 100000 blanks,
enough TO keep the state in stock for
two years, ii is thought The state fur
Ilishes the paper for the printing, thus
securing uniformity in the quality Of
the paper as well as in the forms. Out
OF the gerat variety of forms the com
mission sifted it down to about one
hundred which viii become the stand
ard. II Is thought that the systematic
ing Of the probate forms will result in
considerable saving to the state treas
ury.
Vermont, in so doing, follows Massa-
chusetts and New Hampshire, the lat-
ter commonwealth having only recently
adopted this plan Of uniformity in its
probate court blanks.
