munity. No person will starve II they
have corn. Those who do not know,
will find way to use it. The Belgians
are receiving wheat and they add
about Is per cent corn, grind it and
make brown bread
Indian corn Is the daily food OF
three-fourths of the native population
OF South Africa. This the writer
knows from personal observation. In
dian corn is the staple food OF the
Mexicans. Neither the Mexfcans nor
the Africans use mills for grinding it.
Indian corn was a great article of food
among the aborigines OF North and
South America and Central America
before Columbus discovered America.
Indian corn saved the lives OF the
first English colony at jamestown,
Virginia. in 1907, when Captain John
smith obtained supplies of it from the
Indians

Jury Claims That Man on
Trial is Victim of
Frame-up
TABER IS FIRST WITNESS
Another Good Sized Crowd Fills the
Courtroom to Hear Case Which
Has Attracted Much
Attention.

Tlat Irwin Se1tZ, on trial IN tue
district court on q charge of burg
! larry. is the victim of frame-up, was
/ the contention of Attorney McCoid
| for the defense in his opening state
| ment to the jury this morning Mr..
| McCoid assailed the testimony OF
Armstrong, which will be given for
the state. and minated that in order
to save himself, he had blamed the
crime on Seitz.
| The state will have tn, testimony
| of Armstrong together with some let
| tiers and checks which are said to be
| In connection with the transactions
concerning couple of diamonds.
Other testimony will be produced by
the prosecution in support OF its
case.
| The opening statements of counsel
| were made yesterday afternoon and
this morning, and shortly before 10
o'clock F.. Carroll Taber was placed
on the stand. He was the first wit
ness for the state He told of leav-
ing his residence together with his
wife last May. He said they returned
about nine o'clock. went to the base
ment to get something and returned
about ten O'Clock.
Witness SAID porches were being
painted and they used basement en-
| trance. He told Of finding a small
jewel box out in the hall, and of find
| ing a brown stain, or burned spot
either from match or cigar on the
1 dresser where the box usually stood,
and e'so of finding the bed clothes
turned back and the bed disturbed at
the head. Mr. Taber described the

/ guson, Tim Whalen, G. s Ferguson,
Lyman Alternately. S. v. Johnson, J.
NJ. Skinner, Phil Heiser, Adam Piper,
john Brice. H. Kinkaide and Chris

The defense will probably subpoena
e number of character witnesses, and
according to the opening statement OF
! the defense, will attempt to show
that the diamonds which it is claimed
Seitz had. were purchased from a
man in Omaha.
Armstrong Tells Story.
Conway Armstrong, the young col
ored man who has made confession
to robbing the Taber house, and who
claims that Seitz abetted the robbery
followed Mr.. Taber on the stand
Armstrong told of knowing of the
hiding place of the Taber jewels
from maid who worked in the house
He told about his alleged dealings
with Seitz. and the plan to enter the
house and how it was carried out. He
claims that he gave some of the
stone, to Seitz who was to sell them
Armstrong said Seitz gave him some
money and later borrowed it back.
i The cross examination of Arm
strong was severe one. Time and
again the prosecuting attorney broke
in with objections. In the cross ex
animation the defense attempted t.
bring out conversations and event.
, which led up to the confession. Arm
strong's cross examination was being
conducted by Attorney McCoid

LEFT OUT FROM LAST WEEK

Does the constitution mean anything
else when it says in said section II
that the Governor "shall supply every
vacancy until it can be filled in the
manner directed by law or this con-
stitution ?" He shall Supply not fill
every vacancy" The word Supply"
means to fill temporarily. The word
"fll" means to complete, to finish the
thing being done.
When other judges and justices are
so elected by the Legislature of 1915
and qualify, will not then the Office Of
those appointed by the Governor ex-
pire, and will not thereafter the ben
NAL term of justices begin in January
the same as of other State officers .
1t will be noted that the constitution
does not say the Governor may fill
any vacancy for the "unexpired term"
for this phrase "unexpired term" is
not known in the constitution, t that
he "shall supply every vacancy in any
Office occasioned by death or other
wise" No matter how occasioned, if
a vacancy exists, the Governor "shalI
supply" it, but not for an urexpired
term, for, after December 1st, there
will be simply vacancy.
The Governor has no original power
to appoint for the biennial term, but
only limited power TO Supply every
vacancy" The General Assembly has
the only original power to elect JUS
tees for two years. Thus it seems
that when vacancies occur next De-
cember in the Offices Of justices and
shall be supplied by the Governor, the
appointments will end when he next
Legislature acts and elects Justices
for the next biennial erm.
The amendments Of 1912 pushed
ahead the meeting of the next Lcgis-
ature from October TO January, and
the general election from September
TO November. But what about our
courts from December LIST until the
next Legislature shall take action
The question is solved so II seems To
the writer, by said section / OF the
constitution.
II is not clear that the Governor has
constitutional authority TO maintain
courts Of justice in every county"
from the lat day Of December until
the General Assembly Of 1915 ION
their first session after their election"
shall elect members Of these courts

on a new idea. a new method. a
new plan; he told the people of
that plan. using printers ink lib
orally in doing so. Today the
progressive methods of the Hyde
Park Savings Bank are known
and read of all Vermonters.
People having money to de-
post always look for the safest
place to put their savings and
year by year, in constantly in
creasing numbers, they have
come to look favorably upon the
Hyde Park Savings Bank until
the banking assets of that little
village today are more than So,
$780, 00-unquestionably larger
than those of any village of its
size on the face of the globe.
The Messenger hits the nail
squarely on the head when it
says Advertise right, advertise
truthfully, and back up the adj
vertisements with the goods
This is just what Senator Page
has done and in so doing has as
the Messenger well says, twice
placed Hyde Park on the map of
the world, first in the line of
Green Calfskins, and second in
the line of Savings Banks.
The Hyde Park banks pays the
highest rate of interest consist
ent with absolutely safe bank
ing. It's motto has been and will
continue to be safety first,
safety always"
1t has never been tempted by
high rates of interest to accept
doubtful paper; it compounds
deposits semi-annually, pays all
taxes of every name and kind,
and in the more than the twenty
five years of it's existence, not a
dollar sent to that bank either
by registered letter, check, or
postal or express money order
has been lost.-News and Citi-
zen.
The bank has just passed its 25th
anniversary and in commemoration of
that event has issued a neat little
booklet giving photograph of the
president and directors. Until the
supply is exhausted it will cheerfully
send to the address of any one who
writes therefore and states that he saw
this notice in the Manchester Journal.

Der when our Civil War started and
spectators tried to force up prices,
but all through the war gold and sill

Gold got up to near four times our
debased currency and food did not
cost four times the usual price. Now
we have gold as a currency, yet gold
dollar will not buy as much as in our

Savings Banks and Green
Calfskins

u YAH ShIuS
The Morrisville Messenger
pays a very fine tribute to Sen
ator Page, his calfskin business
and the Savings Bank of which
he is President. 1t is worth re-
production and we give it below
at Pays To Advertise.
Nothing truer was ever said.
4 But
! Advertise right.
Advertise truthfully.
i And
Back up the advertisement with the
goods.
That it is no gamble to spend money
for advertising, has been conclusively
proven right in this county.
Take the case of the Lamoille Coun-
ty Savings Bank and Trust Company
1t is one of the largest advertisers
4, in he county.
1t puts out good copy, the kind that
is read, and when read carries convic-
ton to the reader.
We do not know who writes these
advertisements, but they are newsy
timely, pointed and convincing.
Does it pay?
Look at the record Of this bank and
you can see that it does pay.
The way its deposits continue to in
crease, notwithstanding the fact that
today most of the other banks are
adopting the advertising idea and are
finding it pays, just in proportion to
the amount they spend and the kind
of copy they use.
This bank has won the title of the
largest bank in the world in a village
the size Of Hyde Park. That is some
thing.
Some one dubbed this little county
years ago, "Spunky Lamoille" and the
name stuck. More, it has been justified
and made term of honor instead of
rep-oach, politically, financially, edu-
cationally, etc.
Over twenty-five years ago it was
the first county in the country in one
branch Of the leather business, collect
ing, curing, sorting and tanning calf
skins, and it holds that title even now.
Good for Spunky Lamoille," we
say and perhaps we might add in
passing, good for Senator Carroll S.
Page, who has developed both the
great hide and banking business to
such phenomenal extent that it has
placed Lamoille county on the map of
the world to stay and made it known
all over the land.
No man has been more free
than Senator Page to acknow-
ledge his obligation to printers
ink as the foundation of his sue
cess, both as dealer in green
calfskins and as banker. Com
mencing fifty years ago he de-
termined to put up a better calf
skin than any other concern in
the world. He used printers ink
literally to inform the world of
his determination and his efforts
were apparently crowned with
abundant success.
twenty-five years ago he de-
termined to start a Savings Bank
