A large number of cases for viola

taken w in United States Court
Wednesday before Judge Harland b.

Newport, was present, and nearly all
the eases resulted from arrests made

case pleas of guilty were entered.
District Attorney V. A. Bullard had
charge of the prosecution. With the
exception OF one case, fines were adj

5 CANDIDATES
in FIELD FOR
COUNTY SENATOR
j. ROlfe Searles Latest AS
pirant to Throw His Hat
Into the Ring
The political pot is boiling over.

The political pot is boiling over.
All you have to do nowadays is TO
stir the kettle little and you get
new candidates for office and political
gossip that has even the wise ones
guessing.
The latest and hottest political sit
uation has been created in the con-
test for Caledonia County senator
ship. Some months ago DR.. J. ID.
Bachand, the enterprising St. Johns
bury dentist announced his candi-
dacy for the senatorship and then
turned out as the supervisor of the
General Wood campaign for this sec
ton. Just how much this increased
his political prestige is a question.
William p. Russell of Kirby, "a very
solid and estimable citizen and pros
porous farmer, came into the Sena
torial field. He has man friends to
urge his candidacy. Soon after came
the announcement OF the candidacy
of Frank 7. Taylor of Hardwick. Mr.
Taylor is likewise a substantial cit
iZen and had an excellent record as a
representative fom his town in the
last Legislature.
This seemed quite formidable ar
ray of talent until into the field last
week came our esteemed attorney
Charles A. Shields. Nh. Shields has
held about every office in the gift of
the voters of St. Johnsbury and
has always shown a devotion to duty
and ability which has made him q
very strong nublic servant. His en-
try into the field put an entirely new
face on the Senatorial situation.
Today new bombshell was thrown
into the political pot by the announce
ment that Attorney j. Rolfe Searles
had thrown his hat into the Senao-
rial ring. The mention Of Searles
brings to mind a red hot campaien-
er, former chairman of the Repubh
can State committee, sterling public
official and one to be reckoned with
seriously in the Senatorial situation.
With the Senatorial primaries the
second Tuesday in September and
five avowed candidates in the field,
the first of July starts off with the
political pot sizzling. There is still
chance for favorite sons and Clark
horses" and as this is presidential
year and about everyone is playing
nolitics it would not be surprising to
see other candidates for Senator an
nounced anydav.
As the small boys are now saying,
"Come on in the waters fine"

Why Not Save
From ST to S.

You cannot earn money easier than
to buy Chautauqua season tickets.
The price for single admission will be
Afternoons so Cents
Evenings rs Cents
Plus War Tax
The price for season tickets for the
entire 10 entertainments is only 1920.
Thus you attend but half of the per-
formances and with the attractive
program no one could miss more-you
would save $1.55 by buying a season
ticket. Don't wait for single admis-
sions. After attending one perfor-
nance you will want to attend them
all and it will cost you more than
double the amount you will pay for
season ticket.

rs THE OLD, OLD STORY
fries Stock Market to Cover Up His
Thefts and Gets in Deeper-Part-
Ing With Wife and Child
Hardest.

Chicago.-Six months ago Frank W.
Belmont was n Of the most content
ed men in Chicago. He was living
with his wife and his daughter Ruth
and his adopted baby son, Frank, Jr.
He was getting $50 a week as head
bookkeeper, putting something by, and
teaching the baby to say daddy"
Belmont, in jail, full Of misery, told
his story.
"a man named Peter Rush of Dan
vile, Ill.," Belmont said, "came to my
home one day and said he heard we
wanted to adopt a baby. His sister,
Julia, was in a hospital in Chicago, he
said, and her o was just a month old
and healthy and fat, but illegitimate.
Wife Becomes III.
ave took him gladly, and then n
day we were told that the boys mother
had committed suicide by poison. The
child was ours beyond dispute. And
we were very happy.
1t was shortly after this that Mrs.
Belmont became i'll. The doctor bills,
Belmont said, wiped out the balance in
the bank-and then it was necessary
that an operation be performed to save
his wife's life.
II had to save her." Belmont said.
II had to pay for that operation. l
had to have a nurse to mind that new
son and Ruth, my eight-year-old daugh-
ter, while my wife was in the hospital.
II took the company's money. Oh, 1
know now that it was criminal, but I
intended to put 1t back. But l couldn't.
1t seemed that all the bills in the world
were coming to me, and l had to pay
them. I took more money.
Then l thought L could get money
on the stock market-enough to cover
up what l had taken. Altogether l
took $1,000. I lost it-and | was the
most wretched man in the world. Well,
I'm here in this cell in the detective
bureau. I'm taking my medicine"
Finds Belmont's Note.
Belmont confessed when a note for
$40 signed by Belmont was found in
