I notice ~ the last Issue that . Jameson
man IN Lowell. by q communication to the
Saeo Democrat claims Mr.. Eastman, the
member elect TO the Legislature from tina,
district. elected without the aid Of Repub.
licsn votes. In explanation, you fall into
IN error in stating that Mr.. Eastman was
nominated at a Democratic caucus. The
Republicans Of Lowell called their caucus
the 9th Of Sept. and Union caucus was
called tho 9TH. The Republican caucus
nominated Obed Stearns, the Union caucus
lsssc Eastman. Some Of the working Re
publicans were in favor Of the Union eau
Gus, and: attended |, and secured the nomi-
nation Of Mr.. Eastman. and by great eIer.
ton gave Mr. Eastman one msjoriiy in Low
ell. when Washburn led Jameson thirty
votes. In Stowe Mr.. Eastman had many
relatives among the Republicans who sup
ported him, giving him twenty plurality,
when the Republican and Democratic vote
was about equally divided. Thu. you per-
cs,vc that Mr.. Eastman was elected ~ TO
publican votes. and much rs we regret that
he should suffer his name to be used under
tho circumstances, yet he i. a good sound
Republican. and ever has been. zee
