Just because the Republicans are
sure to win the election in Vermont
is no reason why no effort should be
made The experience of the past
shows that there are years whea the
Republican party in Vermont needs
an active and militant organization. In
order to have such a force when
wanted it is wise to keep a campaign
organization in working order. The
Republican party in Vermont was new
er stronger than now. 1t has With
stood the storms of recent years by
meeting it's opponents fairly in an
open field and winning the battle. It
is no time to lie down just because the
going is easy.

London, March 16.--The Holland.
Lloyd passenger steamship Tubantia
sank early today off the Noord Hinder
lightship as the result of striking a
mine or an attack by submarine.
Several American passengers are said
to have been aboard. The eighty or
ninety passengers and crew of 500 are
believed to have been saved.
The Tubantia, $4,000 tons, left Am
sterdam Wednesday for the river
Platte and was to have stopped at
Falmouth for passengers and freight.
Early this morning wireless distress
calls from the ship were heard at the
Hook of Holland and torpedo boats
and other craft rushed to its as.
sistance.
Some of these boats reached the
steamship before it sank and took off
passengers and members Of the crew
while others picked up survivors from
the ships boats.

Seventy survivors were taken into
Flushing, Holland, by two torpedo
boats. Others took refuge on board
the lightship while still others were
picked up by Dutch and Swedish ves-
sells. Those arriving at Flushing said
the explosion occurred at 2.30 O'Clock
this morning, just as the Tubantia was
about to drop anchor. Opinions among

The attack at LIE Mort Homme con-

ST. PATRIck's DAY.
Eight Below Zero Ushers In Birthday
of Irish Patron Saint.

Of Irish Patron Saint.
"St Patrick's Day in the Morning"
was eight below zero in Bennington
this year. The shamrock's green
stood out against white background
of high.piled snow, touch of contrast
being inserted in the color scheme in
the way Of red cheeks due to frosty
wind which blew in the faces of pc.
destrians.
The Irish people we're loyal in the
wearing of the green, and following
the custom. many who are not Irish
but who respect the sturdy qualities
OF the folks from the Emerald Isle,
wore the shamrock or the miniature
Irish flag as a tribute of friendship to
them. The sale of novelties and SOU
venirs was heavy and green neck-ties
were popular color.
Special mass was celebrated In the
Catholic churches in the early morn
ing, but as St. Patrick's day is more a
feast day and holiday the real com
memoratory services are joyous ones
and this evening will be given over to
parties, dances and minstrel enter

At half-past ten Wednesday morning
twelve dogs, more or less worthless
from the bluelblooded standpoint, dis
ported themselves merrily in Putnam
Square to the nuisance of pedestrians
and peril of traffic. They ranged all
the way from the species suggesting
cockroaches with hair on. to the
Champ-Clark variety, but one thing
they had in common--that was, pos
session of the square. They got in
the way of automobiles and ran bark
ing in front of horses. Once they all
started zen masse" for a sidewalk and
nearly showed over in their rush a
woman with two children, at which
both of the kids were scared into near
Mysteries and began to bawl like a
pair of little Apaches.
The thing might be considered a
joke were it not for the ugly tenden-
cies displayed by some of these ami
mails in their excitement of getting
together for high old time on the
public domain, most of them are abb
solutely worthless and without collars
or license tags.
The dog problem is not new one to
Bennington. The loss Of over 60 sheep
within three months by farmers about
Bennington this fall makes the free

this does not warrant droves of the an

This is not SO much a condition for
the attention of the police as it is for

.COUN IY SAVINGS
BANKS RECORD
OF. 40 YEARS
One Of the Strongest and Safest
Institutions in the State
SLOW PROGRESS IN EARLY YEARS
Dr. r. S. Pratt Elected Trustee to Fill
Vacancy Caused by Death Of
e. L. Slbley.

DIR. f. S. Pratt has been elected by
the trustees OF the Bennington County
savings bank to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of Edward l.. Sibley.
DR. Pratt has been on the board of
corporators for many years and has
always been greatly interested in the
progress and prosperity of the bank.
The present board Of trustees is
composed OF l. Il. Gibson. president,
J. r. Judson, vice president, and John
Robinson, Edward d. yelling, Daniel
f. Gardner, Harrison /. Norton and
Fred S. Pratt. Charles H. Dewey is
treasurer and Richard F. Rawson as
sistant.
The savings bank runs along so
smoothly from year to year that many
people do not realize that the Benning-
ton County savings bank is probably
the strongest and safest savings bank
in Vermont.
Some folks think without due con-
slderation that the bank with the
most money is the strongest, but In
fact big deposits are sometimes an
element OF weakness unless the re-
serve is correspondingly large.
The strength and safety of bank
depend chiefly on its management
and on the proportion of the surplus
and reserves to the liabilities. The
Bennington County savings bank had
on Jan. l. 1916 deposits OF S2.622, ,26S.S
and in surplus and reserve funds it
had s277.517.11--or more than ten per
cent OF its total deposits The ex-
penses OF the bank too are lower in
proportion to business done than al
most any other bank in Vermont
These several good points make the
bank probably the strongest and SAT-
est savings Institution in Vermont. y
lmFT'he Bennington County savings
bank is 40 years old this year, having
beendincorporated In 1875. but 1t did
not actually begin bushessi until 1878
and it started very small and poor.
,f1n 1883 when the bank was five
years old its total Of deposits and SUR
plus was only s179,s5s. Another five
years took the bank to 1888 when it's
total Of deposits and surplus was
| $685. ,057 which is twenty thousand
dollars less than the surplus alone
today. The growth by five year
periods from that time has been as fol-
Lows.
