That Special Session

Coy. Gates has called special session
of the Legislature to provide additional
pay for the Vermont soldiers at thefront.
There is not person in the state who
objects to paying the soldiers a good
round sum, but to our way of thinking
the money could be provided for in some
more economical way than calling the
Legislature together.
1t is hoped there will be no politics in
the session. but we fear it will be hard
matter to prevent friends of all aspirants
to refrain from injecting good word in
willing and unwilling ears--about the
dement's and merits of the candidates.
The suggestion that the members at
tend this session without pay is all wrong.
They should not be asked to do what
many of them can ill-afford. The move
will cost the state several thousand dol
lars.

Watch Out When Voting

Two things in connection with the new
primary law should be remembered when
the voter goes into the booth on Septem-
Der -. First, the fact that he has signed a
mans petition does not bind him to vote
for that man. He could not sign second
petition but if there have been develop
ments since he signed mans petition
that make him want to vote for another
man he is at liberty to do so.
Second, he can vote in any one political
column. He cannot vote for one or
more of the Democratic candidates and
then vote the rest of the ticket Republi-
can, or vice versa. He is not obliged to
vote for all the candidates in either party,
but all he votes for must be in the same
party or his vote will be thrown out as
defective. So don't attempt to split your
ticket when you vote if you want your
vote to count.

Students from Out-Of-TOwn

To the People of Morrisville:
Indications point to record breaking
attendance at Peoples Academy this fall.
Prospective students from Chittenden,
Franklin. Washington, Orange, Gale
donia and Orleans counties have already
signi6ed their intention of attending.
We have received more calls than usual
from pupils who wish to work their way
through school. especially to work for
their board. have on my list now one
boy each from the towns of Underhill,
Wolcott, Greensboro, Walden, Calais
who wish opportunity to work for their
board in part or in full In each case
these boys will be unable to come to
Morrisville, unless such opportunity is
provided them. In addition to this,
there are at least two boys who live in
the remote portions of this town who
will be unable to attend the Academy
unless they find a chance to work for
their board.
/ appeal to the people of this commun-
ity tor aid. 1t seems to me that when
pupils from surrounding towns and
counties wish to attend Peoples Academy
and in addition are willing to work to
help pay the expense of their education.
that the good people of Morrisyille
should offer opportunities to such pupils.
Peoples Academy is the biggest business
asset of this town and its citizens are its
stockholders. Here is an opportunity to
increase its business, to enhance its
power, to extend it's influence, besides
doing the boys a genuine service. 1
have also on my list the names of five
girls who wish to work for their board
whom have yet been unable to place.
l will gladly describe the pupils, giving
their qualifications, to those who are in
terested. / hope l will receive many re
spones to this appeal.

He Seconds His Nomination

MoRRIsvILLE, VT, Aug. %, 1916.
Editor Ne,os and Citizen:-
Permit me through your columns to
express my feelings and convictions in
regard to one of the candidates for Lieu
tenant-Governor before our September
Primary.
Roger W. Hulburd is man of the
people and for the people. Born in the
town of Waterville, in the county of La
noble, he early obtained such education
as the schools of that town afforded; he
supplemented this by attending the
Montpelier Seminary and the Peoples
Academy at Morrisville, graduating from
the latter institution; he entered the
University of Vermont and finished with
honors the full classical course there in
1882.
His father, while the son was only six
or seven years of age, surrendered his
life to his country at the battle of Cedar
Creek Oct. 10, "a and now sleeps ON a
southern battlefield. After the bread
winner of the family was thus taken away
the widowed mother bravely kept to-
gether her young family and at great
sacrifice gave them an education. After
course at the Albany Law School Mr..
Hulburd was admitted to the Bar of YER
mont and there quickly gained recogni-
ton as ready examiner and fearless
advocate. His client cause is always his
own and through his absorption in the
demands of his causes and his convincing
manner in presenting the issues consider
ed, his influence upon juries has ever
been strong and controlling.
As General Agent of the National Life
Insurance Company he has come in con-
tact with the people of the State. AS a
Director of the Lamoille County Savings
Bank and Trust Company for many years
his advice upon business and financial
matters has been daily sought. In public
life his services as States Attorney of La
mobile Co., Representative of the Town
of Hyde Park, Senator from Lamoille
County, and Trustee for many years
of the state Industrial School, have con-
tinuously brought him into intimate
touch with matters of public import. In
the Senate of 1896 and tie House of 1906
he was easily among the leaders.
He has ever been faithful and aggres-
sive Republican and as member of the
State Committee and on the stump has
rendered valuable service in many cam
paigns and his advice and efforts have
ever been at the disposal of his party.
Many times has be aided others on the
way to political preferment, asking moth.
ing for himself, and now a large circle {
friends and admirers ask that his services
to the State be further invoked by con-
ferring upon him the office of Lieutenant
Governor.
Strong in debate, impartial and vigor-
Gus, firm and helpful in counsel, forcible
in statement he would admirably per-
form the duties of that office. Knowing
the man as have for many years and be-
lieving in his worth and ability sincerely
hope that the suffrages of the voters on
September 18th will bestow upon him
the Office for which he is a candidate. l
most heartily second his nomination.

District Field Artillery. October 24.-That
a camp of District troops was no place
to attempt a raid was shown two Mex
leans last night VINO attempted to enter
the camp of Battery B. District Field
Artillery, ostensibly for the purpose Of
stealing horses. Privates Musson and
Louis s. Malone, with their new auto
matte pistols, loaded with a magazine Of
big .45-caliber cartridges, were peacefully
walking the sentry line last night when
watched. In the darkness they saw the
shadows of two men creeping toward the
picket line where the horses we're tied.
Halt called 1s ath out the guard; ,o. But as.90 no
the challenge was issued, but no re-
sponse Then a flash of flame, and a
Mexican went fiat to the ground. The
guard had shot true. Another shot, and
now in the regimental hospital Of the 5th
New Jersey Infantry. suffering from bull
let wounds in the legs.
A shot in a military camp is q signal
for turning out the guard. The guard
Of the battery and the 9Th New Jersey
turned out. the latter with machine guns
trained in the direction Of the Mexican
line. But they were Of little use. ex-
cept to aid in carrying the Mexicans to
the hospital. for Musson and Malone had
settled the men down for few minutes
so they couldn't get very far.
Today and until the battery leaves the
guard will be strengthened. and the SEN
tries hereafter Will have several maga-
zines filed with cartridges. If any other
Mexicans attempt to get into this camp
they will be greeted with a verttable
shower of shell. with batterymen loaded
with many rounds of pistol cartridges
and the machine guns of the 5th New
Jersey ready for action.
The main part Of the battery Is still
working on the target range. and the
6iring of the men is said to be very ef-
fective. They are having their troubles.

Would Mobilize Floating Supply.

Gold lost by the banks to meet the
foreign demand would be replaced by
mobilizing a part Of the present float
ing supply Of tho community into their
hands. This process would be facil-
itated by tho ease with which federal
reserve notes could be issued to fll the
void created by the withdrawal Of gold
or other forms of currency.
"An important element of strength
in protective capacity of the country
against an undue drain Of gold Is the
heavy holding of foreign government
obligations which run off in the next
few years.
The conclusion warranted by this
survey is that the reserve banks
can easily, with the cooperation of
their member banks. be put in a posi-
ton where they can master any situa-
tion which may arise"
