to the state legislature his conetituents didn't ask hint if he wanted tit represent them They just turned In and chose him He had Veen a delegate to several Re-' publican national conventione For many years he was connected with the liepubliean state committee filling the offices of secretary treasurer and chair nen Ho was also state bank exantiner and later governor When Senator Proctor died

biggest busineme man: also its banker and everybody's friend and counsellor STARTED MIMI SMALL BM Speaking of the beginnings of bin calfskin business which itx known to the leather trade all over the country he said: "When I was only a email boy I began buying calfskins trout the farmere curing them and selling them to the tanners After I got through school when I was about 16 my father who waa an invalid wanted toe to stay with him as 1011g as he lived I promised 14 would not leave him I worked early and late and had the satisfaction of seeing my hide 'venture grow I made up my mind that as long as I had to stay in Hyde Park I must find some way to increase my business "I advertised somewhat recklessly In ell of the trade papers of the country asking for shipments of green hides and promising early cash returns based upon the market value of the date of shipment My business increased rapidly "People shipped me hides front as far 'west as Denver At one time I had 190- 000 calfskins in my storehotmes I was adjudged the largest dealer in calfskins in the country My nearest competitor a New York man declined to show his books to determiue the question" HELPED NOMINATE oaernifa Senator Page was a delegate to the Republican national convention which nominated Garfield He was also the bearer of a letter from Senator Edmunds Vermont's presidential choice in which he said that under no circumstances would be be a candidate for the nomination "The contents of that letter was known to only a few of us" Senator Page said Cm other day "and it was thought best not to make it public until the choice of a candidate was settled Senator hoar of Massaehusetts was one of the Edmunde leadere John Sherman had his heart set on the nomination and I think until his death he believed that he had beeu betrayed by Garfield and others of his own delegation I never shared his belief" 'Senator Page considers his work as state bank examiner the most important of his many public services "Some years ago a number of our banks were a little shaky" he said "I was asked to lake hold and help straighten them out The salary was only $500 a year but I felt that I could da some good by accepting the position feund that some of the banks were head over heels in western farm mortgtges a poor investment at that tints and that others were doing a banking 'business on unsafe lines It was a long hard fight in behalf of the people who bad their matey in the banks which wouldn't stand up but I took the chance and eventnally cleared up the situation As a result of toy our banking laws were untended and improved and I retired feeling that I had done a distinct public service to the people of Vermont' Senator Page favors disarmament in principle "but" he says "I am not in favor of the United Slates disarming on-It es the other great govertonents of the world do so So long as we hew not found a way to prevent war I believe we should maintain a strong navy and always have that
