National opinion. [volume] (Bradford, Vt.) 1865-1874, 1868-09-04


Bradford sends to the Legislature
this year Mr.. Hubbard Wright, who
has represented the town eight years
before this. he was formerly a
gbig. and in 1862 received the vote
Of both parties; three years ago he
was elected by Al majority, we be-
ueye This year the democrats, by
. free use of money and every other
means they could bri lg to bear, sue
coeded in electing h m by Z majority.
Mr.. Wright is the only man in town
whom they could elect, and the only
man they dared to run, he being
very popular man in town, with both
parties.
In West Fairlee The democrats
made the most strenuous efforts to
carry that town, by getting in new
voters through the agency of the
copper mine near w. Fairlee village.
Outsiders were very anxious that
the town should go democratic as
il is the home of 1t. Gov. Thomas.
The Editor of the Montpelier Argus
went down there and spent some
time hunting for some unworkcd
rein which would yield copper suf1i,
Gent to give complexion to the cleo
ton. But we think he must have
got at work on the wrong lead, as
the republicans re. elected Mr.. Blge-
low by an increase Of ~ ever Their
majority of last year.
Mr.. John Aldricl of this town
claims that we did him injustice in
what we said of him last week. We
offered to publish his own statement
in regard to his refusal to sign a
complaint against Pat Badger for
Drunkenness, if he would hand it i'll
but he has not done so. He stated
to us however that he was not in
favor of drunken rowd, ism, or any
thing of the kind. What we said
of Mr.. Aldrich was based upon the
fact that when requested to sign a
complaint against Bado.' he would
not do so; and the fact remains.
Tie second trial of Pat Badger
for drunkenness resulted in the jury
not agreeing. They stood . for con
viction and one for acquittal. An
other jury was Crawn and a part o
the testimony heard. when the cour
adjourned Que week Oh account OF
sickness in Badger family.
