next Monday to weigh the matter
carefully. The revision includes two
changes of more or less Importance
the provision for electing probate
judges for term of four years, and
increasing the salary of our senators
and representatives to $500 per term.
The contention that the increase will
secure better men will not hold water.
The addition of 200 dollars couldn't
secure an E. s. Henry or an Orvile E.
Platt. In short, it is only a move
to olinch the biennial session, which
is justly in danger of being boosed in
favor of the annual session, which .is
bound to come because it Is needed.
And 1t is true that If the salary is
raised it will be very much more diff.
cult to get a vote to return the
annual session, which would then be
1000 dollars for two representatives
per year instead of 300 dollars as it
is now.
We give herewith the advance
sheet, summary of town accounts for
the fiscal year just ended:-

More Strenuous Workers Than Fire
Fighters In BIG Cities.

Pl0nG0rS IN Dig OlGieSs
The career of the wrecker on a big
railroad is like that of a fireman III
the fire department of a big city, only
more strenuous. Like the fireman, the
wrecker is on duty every second day
and night, and, like the fireman, the
wrecker braves billiards. and sleet
storms. often facing hardships and
cruel suffering and even death for
the saving Of life and property. But
whereas even in emergency the fire.
man never covers an area greater than
the most populous section Of city-the
line traversed by the wrecker covers a
hundred or more miles-and whereas
the fireman Is In touch with at least
such comforts as he may snatch while
on his feet, not infrequently the wreck
er Is landed in the heart of a wilder
ness miles and miles from the nearest
town. and the pangs Of hunger are
added to privation.
Sometimes when a big wreck has
happened and cars and engines are
piled high on crushed and mangled
bodies the wrecker is rushed through
darkness and snowdrift to work from
twenty-four to forty eight hours with
out even a chance to take his cap off.
and just as his "job' is nearly complet-
cd along comes another alarm that
sends him sixty or seventy miles in an
opposite direction, where box cars and
coal cars have heaped themselves thir-
ty feet high, paralyzing the road and
costing thousands of dollars worth Of
loss in time and prestige almost every
hour.
Despite these hardships, the danger.
the excitement and the hustle of the
work endear 1t to the men.-A. w.

The Kind of Savings Bank for
Vermont,

The Brandon Union thinks that the
Lamoile County Savings Bank and
Trust Company typifies the kind of
Bank which Vermonters should be in
terested in. 1t says
On July II the assests of the Hyde Park
Bank passed the Sl,000,o0o mark.
Bear in mind that this is an all Vermont
institution, not dollar of its capital is
,r ever has been invested out of Ver-
mont, and it holds the enviable record
Of never having lost dollar by poor
note. An institution of this kind is,
of course, of great value and convenience
to Vermont and Vermonters. If an
individual or corporation has assets
and needs cash they can get it., and at a
low rate. The average depositor wants
his money where il is absolutely safe
and also where he can get it on call.
This bank pays 4Go compounded
semi-annually on deposits Of 500 OF
| more.
