From the reports that come from
Washington, all of the governors who
attended the conference at the White
House, with the exception of those
from Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin and
New York, are of the opinion that
secretary Taft will be nominated either
ON the first ballot or by exclamation.
Republicans and Democrats alike
stated in interviews that the fight for
the nomination was practically oyer
and Mr. Taft will be nominee of his
party and that he would in all p oba-
bility be opposed by Mr.. Bryan.
There seems to be little doubt that
the Secretary OF War will lead the
Republican party to victory at the
polls in November.

popular as ever.
The management of the park has

WIN ANOTHER GAME
Perrysburg Team Victorious oyer
the Victors of Toledo.

The home base ball team easily de-
feated the Victors of Toledo last Sun
day. From n Perrysburg standpoint,
it was the finest game that the home
team has played this season. Lewis,
the new pitcher, allowed but one hit
in s innings and but hits in the en-
tire game. He also struck out II men.
HIS support by his teammates was
gilt-edged. In the absence of Ries,
Charles played at short and accepted
his chances cleanly.
The Victors are pretty strong
team, and the to score is quite a
feat to feel proud of.
The home boys are certainly hitting
the ball and the prospects are getting
brighter that the team of 1908 will be
one of the fastest teams in Ohio.

PHYSICIANS LIABLE.

Ohio has long had the reputation of
having the poorest System of securing
vital statistics OF any of the states
The last Legislature passed new law
on this subject which goes into effect
in August.
Under the new law the registrars in
either cities or townships are COM
PEELED to report indifferent physicians
to the chief registrar at Columbus,
who may prosecute them through To-
cal prosecutors.
A fine of from S5 to 500 is imposed.
The law provides that the state reg
istrar, new officer, shall receive
S2,500, and that in cities where regis
tration is now conducted the person
doing the registering shall continue
to serve. In townships the registrar is
allowed % cents each for deaths.
Undertakers are required to file
record of the deaths with the regis
trar, and this shall be duly signed
by the attending physician. On the
strength of this certificate a burial
permit may be issued. This will be
good anywhere in the state, which has
not been the case heretofore For
bodies sent in from other states a 10.
cal permit must be secured and GENE
terry officials are forbidden allowing
an interment without the permit.
They are also required to keep rec
ord of all burials.
The law further provides that all
hospitals shall keep ledger which
must contain the names of patients,
the cause of their illness and the ma
ture of it, together with other statis-
tics.
In the case of birth physicians are
required to furnish the names of the
parents, the sex of the child and other
facts together with its color. Returns
on births must be made within ten
days. The law makes the reporting
of deaths mandatory upon parents, as
well as upon house owners. Local
registrars must make returns to the
state registrar by the 10th of each
month.

18TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
A Savings Bank Worthy of Patronage
From Newport Express and Standard

From Newport Express and Standard
While few have chosen to criti-
else Carroll S. Page for his liberal
use of printers ink in the advertising
of the Hyde Park Savings Bank, the
fact goes to prove that the use of il
for the past six months has increased
the deposits in his Savings Bank
nearly a-quarter of million dollars.
1t only tends to prove that Carroll
S. Page has the confidence of his
many depositers who are not only
from his own county but throughout
the state at large.
A bank that believes in home in
vestments, that finds plenty of OPP
portunities for those investments al
home, and transacts its financial
affairs upon solid basis without
assuming unnecessary risks, is wor-
thy of patronage and its promoters
worthy CT unbounded praise.
There are opportunities enough
for good solid investments in Yer.
mont if one has the eye and the
keenness to look them up; Carroll S,
Page has an eye for these invest
ments and this is why he holds the
public confidence in the Hyde Park
Savings Bank.

$235, 600 Gain in Savings Deposits
in Six Months.
From the Hardwick Gazette

Notwithstanding the scare in the
financial world and the failure Of a
few large banking institutions YER
mont banks have increased their de-
posts during the past year and one
Of these is the Hyde Park Savings
bank. In six months the deposits of
this bank increased $235,ooo. The
bank inaugurated an advertising
campaign some time ago to increase
its deposits and by the persistent use
of printers ink little short of phe-
nominal results have followed.
Then, too, the business ability and
careful methods of its president, ex-
Gov. Page, is another reason fol the
record.

ming up at the Pleasant street bridge
and setting back usually to Gross
street. The gardens and land on the
west side of the stream from the jail
bridge to Pleasant street we're deep
in water. With axes and poles the
jam at the Pleasant street bridge was
broken after an hours work or more
by half a dozen men, and the situa-
ton was relieved. F. E. Richmond s
carriage house was flooded; water
was creeping into the stable before
the ice started, and the high water
mark in the Basement of the Jail barn
was in danger.
The ice in the river, below Mar
ble's mill pond, went out in the after
noon, and about 10 o'clock at night
the ice above, to Bridgewater and
beyond, broke up and started for
Long Island sound.
Marbles dam was Jared and
dented considerably and the main
pipe of the water system, crossing the
river just below the covered bridge,
was broken, There was little inter
rupsion in the service, however, as
by adjusting the gates the water was
sent by the River street line to the
mai | system by way of Elm street.
The meadows and highway at the
"wi lows" near West Woodstock were
covered with ice as usual, and the
roaC was not cleared until Sunday
noon.
Some havoc is reported up the
river, three small bridges in Bridge
water being swept down stream.
