The best opinion at this time is that
Verncut's delegation to the national
Republican convention will favor tiov.
Charles f. Hughes of New York for the
presidential nomination. BY this it is
moi meant that the delegation will be,
or should be, instructed for Mr.. Hughes
or any other man. 1t would be but nat
ural that Vermont should favor the can
didate that is nearest to it geographical
ly. when the fitness of that man is I'M
questioned. There is no doubt that
Hughes sentiment is growing all over the
country. The News, for one, believes
that all things cosidered Gov. Hughes
would be the strongest candidate that
could be named among the several most
excellent ones on the list Rutland
News.
Vermont may favor Hughes and if it
does it will favor good man, one whom
this paper would be we'll satisfied to see
elected president. We are of the opin
ion, however, that Taft will be the next
nominee of the Republican party and the
next president of the United States If
New Engl md were solid for Hughes it
is even then much too small to be a
determining factor in the convention.
But there are indications that Taft will
get almost as much support in New
England as Hughes. Sentiment SCENE
to be quite evenly divided in Massachu-
sets and i'll New Hampshire strong
Taft movement has been inaugurated.
Even Vermont is far from being unani-
nous for Hughes. The fish and game
cohorts that heard Hughes apeak last
fall are unanimous, but thay are not
the whole of Vermont. 1t would GER
tainly be neighborly for Vermont to sup
port Hughes, but if the delegation de-
sres to cast it's vote for the winner it
will have to support Taft.--Bellows

A Unique Savings Company

The Bradford Opinion believes that
the unique position of the Hyde Park
Savings Bank, in investing al, its funds
III Vermont, promotes safety. 1t SAYS:
The I.ansolle County Savings Bank
and Trust Co., holds somewhat unique
position in Vermont banking circles
Its slogan is Vermont money for the MP
building of Vermont industries. The
principle is carried ont so thoroughly
that every cent of the banks funds is
invested in Vermont, aud the bank has
never lost dollar on poor note fol-
lowing this policy. This is one answer
to the cry that there is no chance to in
vest money at home.
The banks policy has been for safe
investment rather than for high rate
OF interest and on the eleventh of this
month the assets of the bank passed the
million dollar mark. Neither the pol
icy nor the success of the bank is so
strange, when we know that Hon. Car.
roll S. Page, of calfskin fame, is the
banks president
Commencing January 1908 this Bank
will pay 496 compounded semi-annualIy
OH all deposits large and small alike !;
will pay taxes on all sums up to $1,000
and will Issue pass-hooks with no limits
as to times of withdrawal or other re-
strictions or limitations save those COM

no civilized country is murder so COM
mon or so seldom punished as in the
United States. 1t is not unreasonable
to infer that the shocking prevalence
of homicide in this country is due to
the very slight danger the murderer
runs of reaching the gallows or the
electric chair. Juries are merciful,
courts are technical, public sentiment
is indulgcnt. and it is notorious that
murder is safer here than in any coun-
try of Europe. May not this immunity
