Vermont Money for Vermont
!yde PaFA SagiagS Bank Policy Approved

From the Waterbury Record.
Il has always been our consistent
al j constantly reiterated opinion that
TIE best place in the world for Yer
mont investors to place their surplus
cash IS in the good old State Of YER
mont. We also held in connection
with the above opinion, that il is the
duty of every Vermonter who has an
investment proposition, safe, sane, and
following the principle Of Vermont
ers for Vermont, to exert every Ell
deapor by every legitimate means with
in his reach TO place his proposition
before the citizens of Vermont
We ali, with no exceptions, like to
have our expressed opinions vindicat
ed, and it is with pleasure that we call
attention to the record OF She Hyde
Park Savings Bank.
This is distinctly a Vermont insti-
tuition, for it is their well known and
commendable policy to keep YER
mont money IN Vermont, and they
have been eminently successful They
have believed, as emphatcally as we,
thar it was their duty to let Vermont
ers know Of their policy, and It must
be 4 great source Of qualification TO
them, that Nermonters have respond
ed to SO large an extent
We heartily congratulate this bank
and its President Ex Gov Carroll S.
Page, upon their success, and we also
take pride in the demonstrated fact.
thar # one wishes TO reach the people
of Vermont the way 70 do it is

Entitled to a Hearing.

1t is a matter of regret If the Leg
islature cannot find time to give con
sideration to the petition Of the real
estate interests Of Boston for an amend
nent TO the present law relating to
contractors liens, Because of the pres
ent defective law, construction loans
are said to be practically understandable
at the present time. Real estate oper-
ations and building are badly handi-
capped by the situation. The real estate
men present reasonable request and
have legitimate argument Of fact in
support Of it. Reference to The next
General Court, which has been voted
by majority OF the judiciary com.
mittee, is not an answer to their argu-
ments nor consideration OF their Pc
tition to which the interests involved
are entitled. Real estate development
in This city, and IN every other city
in the state, is entitled to a fair hear
ing before the legislature.--Boston Her

CURRENT COMMENT. /
a Farmers Advise.

An Addison county farmer writes
The News is follows: There Is moth
ing gained by planting small potatoes.
we fear that the practice Of selecting
the seed of the stock that is not salable
Is 700 generally tie case, and the re-
suit is hat the quality Of our potatoes
Is not being maintained. This is ex-
cellcnt advice. The profitable results
which have followed the selection Of the
best seed for planting, in particular
cases, DEMONSTRATE the absolute wisdom
Of paying attention to the procurement

crop which Vermont farmers grow. The
fundamental operation in farming is

EIGHT INDICTMENTS ARE IN
Bills Returned by County Jury Are
of Ordinary Police Court
Character.

Returning a bunch of eight indictments
into criminal court Saturday morning. the
county grand jury finished its work for
the week without any sensational develop
ments. The indictments were all in cases
which ordinarily would have come up in
police court had the grand jury not been
in session. One of them was against Marie
Hill, keeper of a house of i'll fame, charged
with harboring Sophia Kratsky. a 15-year-
old girlin her resort. Another was against
William Jensen. a Great Western fireman,
charged with e%nticing Hattie Anderson. a
15-yeal- old girl across the river to Council
Bluffs for improper purposes. Both of
these cases were reported to the jury by
Probation officer Bernstein.
other indictments were against Bertha
Grant and Bonnie Due, charged with pick
ing the pockets of Edwin r. Sprague Of
money and checks amounting to $7S6; ]. II.
Christie. charged with forging a check for
1888 on the Packers National bank of South
Omaha; Albert Scott, charged with break
ing into the store of Herman Friedell and
stealing $3.50; Robert Magarell, charged
with obtaining $50 from Sarah Schwenneker
by representing he was a licensed physician
when he was not. Two other indictments
were returned, but were not given out as
the arrests had not been made. 1t was
said they were unimportant.
The jury is also investigating conditions
in the red light district at the request OF
probation authorities.

TAXPAYERS FIGHTING CRAFT
Unique and Impressive Means EN-
ployed in New York City.
EXHIBITS TELL STORY OF WASTE
science of Municipal Loot supple

sample Instances.

From $500 to 5000 citizens have been Wis
itlng every day the budget exhibit estab-
lished by the Greater New York taxpey-
ers' conference, with the assistance OF the
bureau OF municipal research. the City
club. the allied real estate interests and a
number Of the heads OF city departments,
on the main floor OF the City Investing
building, 165 Broadway. Every day at
noon an address has been given upon some
question connected with the municipal ad-
ministration, and the hall has been packed
20 the doors by interested taxpayers. More
over, parties Of students have come to see
the exhibit from Teachers college and
other institutions and have been shown
around by official guides.
The idea OF the exhibition IS TO show
with striking tables and i'm graphic form
what New York City is doing, what It
needs to do and how it is day by day
wasting a large part Of its income. The
managers insist that they do not want
only to %criticise that is going on, but to
inform the public Of the things that merit
praise as well as censure. But inevitably
the greater part of the exhibits demon
strate the crying need of reforms.
The whole purpose of the promoters is
set forth in the sign:

the bad old days proprietors were &C
customed to give the city 81 for such Of
its public streets as they wished to close.
Controller Metz has. however, put a stop
TO this lucrative practice.
The department exhibits are sometimes
critical and sometimes set forth the needs
Of the commissioners. Borough President
Coler shows a table in which he con-
tends that street repairs and the like arc
performed by his office at a much lower
cost than in the other boroughs, In the
section devoted to the fire department it
Is stated that New York. employs 4,17e
men for 2Gl machines. although other cities
man the same number of engines with
1891. This excess OF I,OsS costs the city
in salaries S1,4O7, 32s a year, and is ac-
counted for by the fact that the men have
from IS to 40 per cent Of their time off
duty.
In contrast with this are photographs
of the condition of the fire alarm system.
The wires hang in clusters from the ele-
waited railroad structures exposed to the
malice of an incendiary or the accidents
of the street. If once. they were cut great
sections Of the city would lose their speedy
fire protection and a small reduction of
the force of men would provide the funds
for their proper repair.

Metz asks for 1909 $49,520 for salary in
creases and $1OS. 900 for new employees, yet
in 1907 he declared that the city's payroll
could be reduced 5 to 20 per cent, with
an increase of efficiency in the work
turned out.

RECORD RUN ON MOTORCYCLE
Trip from Omaha to Norfolk, Hundred
and T~htrty-One Miles, in
Six Hours.

Louis Flescher made a record run from
Omaha on his motorcycle to Norfolk
Wednesday, when he went to O'Neill to
register for the drawing of the Trip
county land. He rode his machine from
Omaha to Norfolk and back and went
from Norfolk to o'Neill on the train. Mr.,
Flescher left Omaha at $3.50 a. m. and
reached Norfolk at 1925, having covered
a distance of 131 miles. the extra distance
being registered on his cyclometer because
of losing his way. AS it was he made
better time to Norfolk than a railroad
train which left Omaha at $40 the same
morning.

ATHOL.BORIE CUTOFF DONE
Line Finished and Turned Over to the
Union Pacific.
CONTRACTORS MOVE ON TO WEST
Fitzpatrick Bros. & Collins VIII Com
tinue Building for Hartman
Untu stopped by Cold
weather.

Fitzpatrick Bros. & Collins have completed
the grading Of the Athol-Bor.e cutoff and
have turned over the road to the Union
Pacific. They have shipped their grading
outfit to other points along the Union Pa
cific to continue work until cold weather.
They have sent about half Of their outfit
to Superior. Sweetwater county. Wyoming,
where the big tipples of the Union Pacific
Goa company must be moved from gov
eminent ground on which they were built
by mistake. The new location for the tip
pies requires the grading of about 10000
yards Of dirt.
The other half Of the equipment Is
shipped to Oshkosh, Neb., where the Union
Pacific will continue the building of the
extension of its North Platte valley line
from North Platte into Wyoming.
fitzpatrick BIOS. & Collins also have the
contract for grading about thirty miles Of
double track work between Granger aud
Green River. This work is being pushed.
The completion of the Athol-Borie cutoff
means that in a short time freight ship
ments from the coast and the Pacific
northwest will no longer pass through
Cheyenne when cnroute for Denver or Kan
sas points, but will use the cutoff. AL
though this cutoff is less than a dozen
miles in length it means the saving OF a
pull up the steepest grade on the Union
Pacific system.

The great waste occasioned by the city's
methods OF purchasing supplies takes up
a large amount OF space. A sign, "A yard
Of lemons tells how the departments
have paid ridiculous prices for a number
OF commodities. A number of these are
actually on show in the hall. A scuttle
fun OF pea coal Is to be seen labeled price

tie of No. l b~uckwheat coal inscribed "The
city is saving $500 TO 5000 in one school
IN one year by using this size instead Of

A piece of rubber hose illustrates the re-
mark, This is four-ply. rubber. We got

Purpose OF the Exhibit.
1T was. however. explained by the Of
ficials In charge of these exhibits that their
object is not so much to point out possible
graft as to call attention to the urgent
necessity of the reformation of the sys-
tenn of municipal bookkeeping. which Con-
troller Metz has been ~endeavoring to in
troduce. In Illustration of this there is
displayed a chart contrasting the processes
through which a warrant issued by the
city had to go bfeore payment before and
since September I.
Before September 1 the warrant was Is
sued by the registrar OF claims of the bu-
reau Of audit and passed again through his
hands four times. as It was submitted first

At Least Six Men Lost and 100000
Sheep Perish in New Mexico.
Kansas City, Oct q. - Blizzard
weather in the Southwest has caused
more than half dozen deaths, one of
them in Kansas City.
Hiding behind her umbrella to pro-
tect herself from the wet snow which
was falling, Mrs. Louise Olmstead,
aged fifty-seven, wife of painter, was
run down and killed by an automo-
bile. The chauffeur asserts that the
snow had so covered his glass front
that it was impossible for him to see
her.
Twenty thousand sheep grazing on
the Cumbers mountain range, in Rio
Arriba county, New Mexico, are re-
ported to have persisted in the bliz-
card which has ragged in that section
during the last three days. The storm
is the worst in years, and snow is
from five to ten feet deep. Besides
the great loss of sheep, six herders
are missing and it is believed they
were also frozen to death.
Medicine Hat, Sask., Oct. 26.-The
first trains since last Monday passed
through here last evening. Riders
just in from the south tell fearful
tales of hardships caused by the storm.
1t is feared that several sheep herders
persisted. A band Of 5000 sheep were
driven before the storm into Many Isl.
and lake and only 300 were saved.

KILLS FAMILY ON AUTO RIDE.
Man Shoots Wife, Two Children and
Self in Presence of Crowd.

Seattle, Oct. 27-After taking his
wife and two children for an automo-
bile ride, man whose name is said to
be John A. Potharst led them to an
embankment at the foot of A street,
where he killed the woman and their
daughter Kathleen, two years of age;
wounded their infant son John, and
then fatally wounded himself, in the
presence of Mortified crowd.
Papers found on the ground later in
dictate that the man was enraged be-
cause his wife was about to seek a
divorce
Witnesses had just been attracted
by the quarreling couple when Pot
harst suddenly fired, the bullet strik-
ing his wife in the neck. AS she rolled
down the embankment he fired again,
the bullet penetrating her brain.
He then seized the daughter, held
her at arms length and snuffed out
her life with third bullet.
The fourth ball fired entered the
right cheek of the infant, John.
Potharst then fired a bullet into his
own head and is dying. Little hope
for the recovery of the infant is en-
tertained.
