step into the Senatorial work. Senator
Page has done and is doing noble work,

prestige but advancing the good name of
the State. He is in the prime of his
work, man Vermonters look to with
pride, feeling sure their interests will be

are some pretty good men in the list
mentioned. but not one that could take
up his work and carry it out without
finding much is necessary to fit them for
the work. Senator Page has won an
honorable place in the Senate, where he
is respected, and whenever he has a mat

people of Vermont will make the ballot

well-known throughout the state, hav-

man, writing editorials and news items
that the people looked for. He had but
recently assumed edtorship of the AID.
vance and was placing that paper in the
front ranks of the state press.
For some time he was the Washington
correspondent of this paper and through
out the last session of the Legislature
wrote from the capitol under the sigma
ture of "Old Timer" He never wrote
anything foolish or that didn't have a
strong point. He was outspoken, yet
treated all with fairness, and no one
could say that John" mis.stated or
over-stated in his writings. He was a
thorough Vermonter and welded his pen
for the best interests of the state. He
"died in the harness" just as he would
liked to have gone, no doubt. Peace to

Bargain in Real Estate

Merchandise and treasure to the value
of more than sixty-sx millions of dollars
moved between Alaska and the United
I States in 1914, an increase of four mil.
lions over the preceding year Alaska's
commercial relations are chiefly with the
| United States and as market for our
| products, the territory with a popula-
ton of only sixty five thousand, is of
equal Importance with China and its
millions of people.
Since 1867 Alaska has given to the
world as much as FIVE hundred millions
OF dollars worth of gold, fish. furs, cop
per, fish oils, silver and so on. This re-
suit has been achieved with sparse
population and an inadequate system OF
railway and other transportation facil-
tiles. With the new era of government
railway construction recently announced
by the Department of the Interior, the
development of Alaska will be greatly
accelerated and that territory, which
already yields as much gold as Califor-
mia, which produces half of the worlds
salmon, and which includes domain as
large as our area east of the Mississippi
River and anacreage for tillage several
times that of the region of Norway,
Sweden and Russia of similar latitude
with 100000 people, may be ex-
pected to attain an even greater degree
of industrial and commercial Importance.
And this is the domain which Score.
