own gifts, stand apart to discover
what 1t Is that we can best do. find
our own best way Of contributing to

There may be years when We have to

Unless we can get our drop OF in

Paper Mills on Lower Bank of River at
Bellows Falls Notified

Bellows Falls, Jan. 20.-Tbe selectmen
OF Walpole yesterday notified the paper
manufacturers, who have mills on or
near the river on the lower bank, that
they were cl9imed as property of Wal
pole, n. H., and that hearing would
be called February 5 at Russell's hall,
to show cause why they had not paid
taxes for 1911. These mills for 30 years
have been paying taxes to Rockingham,
hence the mill owners did not intend TO
pay taxes in both towns,
The towns are divided by the Con-
necticut river, and many changes have
taken place in the past years, and only
the courts can decide where the west
bank of the river IL. Rockingham will
fight its title TO the properties hard.
That claimed by the selectmen of New
is property of the Interna-

For STATE TREASURER.
Brandon Union Advocates Walter F.
Scott of Brandon.

Walter f. Scott, cashier of the Bran
don National bank, is candidate for
state treasurer, notwithstanding that
the Groton Times remarks that 'The
man who opposes r. II. Deayitt for
state treasurer is not lacking in cour-
age"
The Groton Times, perhaps without
| any amount of study over the question,
presents the key to the situation A
man who has confidence in his abilities
! TO perform task does not lack the
courage to attempt it.
Mr.. Scott and Mr.. SCOTS friends and
| acquaintance have the fullest conf
dence in his ability to perform the du-
ties of state treasurer and therefore Mr..
Scott is not lacking in the courage to
ask the people for recognition. Mr..
Seott's friends also have plenty Of cour-
age to take his name before the voters
and ask them to elect him to the office.
Mr.. Scott has been identified with the
Brandon National bank for some 80
years. He knows banking thoroughly
and the state would not suffer from
the change. He has represented Bran
don in the legislature and Rutland coun-
ty in the Senate and therefore could
attend the sessions with experience be-
hind him TO guard the states interests
as its treasurer. His friends are loyal
to the best interests OF the state and
they would not advocate man for state
treasurer whose ability TO perform the
duties OF the office was not beyond
question. Also, so far as The Union
has knowledge, Mr.. Scott is not "oppos-
ing" Mr. Deavitt in the sense this might
be interpreted. He is not telling OF the
many reasons why he should be elected
or any reasons why Mr.. Deayitt should
be defeated. He is simply answering
more or less wide demand that he be-
come a candidate. He recognizes that
Mr. Deayitt has been a good treasurer
and is not pickering about his admin
istration of office. But Mr.. Scott also
recognizes that the Office of state treas
urer belongs TO the people and that.

greedy boy for having tried to grab
more than its share of the official plums
These, so far as consistent with good
service. should be distributed over the
state, and that's gooG argument why the
treasurership should come to Brandon.
The argument that Mr.. Deavitt should
have the office another term simply be-
cause his predecessor held it four terms
is all bosh. It's mp to the people to
say whether the incumbent shall hold
the office one term or dozen. One
might as we'll argue that the treasurer
ship should always be held on the east
side Of the mountain. There is almost
a precedent for that argument. The
facts in the case are that since the year
1900 east-siders have held the office %
