THE THIRD DISTRICT.

d
TO the Editor of the Free Press and Times. ssf,
This is the political year in Vermont,
and the pot has already commenced
to boil, and as all of the bad elements
Of the parties will be up and dressed,
it is absolut@5eg necessary that all
grave and sober men should be up and
doing, for there are some abuses which
must be corrected or we shall soon
pass to the shades of departed empire.
The most important matter for our
consideration in this District, is q
proper man to succeed Mr.. Hendee in
our National council. There are sew
eral names before the people, of men
no doubt possessed of sterling quail
ties. Prominent among candidates
stands Bradley Barlow. Why should
he be the man of all others to repre-
sent the people Of this District in Con-
gress Is it because he has been
shrewd enough to amass an immense
fortune from the Government out of a
mail contract ring, and liberal enough
to subsidizc the Press in his favor!
have frequently heard it said by pro-
fesscdly good men," son? Brad's
money will do it," What disgrace
to free people? What commenta-
~ on the oldcn times, when the Office
sought the man instead of the man

you a man eminently qualified to rep
resent the people of this District in
Congress. Hon. i. A. Sowles, Of st.
Adams, man of liberal education.
splendid talents, bred lawyer, has
inherited fortune,-for which some
will envy him, but none can blame, =
a young and active man, who if chosen
will look after every interest of his
constituency 4 and last, but not least,
he is emincnty a temperance man.
On this | basemy plea, for intemper-
ance has corrupted all Of the springs
of our Government, and is u giant OF

ment back to its original purity we
must choose rhIerS who have level
heads and pure hearts, and we must
discard ringmaetcrs and political bnm-
mers. Yours, W. G. C..

Personally we had first thought to
cast our influence for Gen. Grout.
Grout has some fine qualifications for
the position, but,on one score up
on which We we're much influenced our
faith waned, and we turned toward
Sowles as the purest and safest man
on the whole for the Christian CONF
munity to support. In the matter ofpol-
itics, however,, we should s'be as wise
if possible, "as, the children of this
world,'' and it. would be foolish to cul-
tiyate dead tree, to attempt an i'm
possibility, and we have therefore, that
we might speak advisedly, studied
Mr.. Sowle's prospects, willing, should
there be the ghost of chance OF
elncting him, to put our shoulder to
the wheel and do our best. Having
a large acquaintance in Franklin
county, we have attended the butter
markets at st. Adams on Tuesdays
and endeavcred to learn what support
i Mr.. Sowles would have in his own
county. OF his own town he says
himself he has not the shadow of q
| hope, and of the whole county VIC
: shall be much mistaken if he carries q
single town unless his friends arc
aroused to more hopeful condition
We are sorry that this conviction was
forced upon us, and we may be mis-.
taken, but good friends of Mr.. Sowles
are of the same mind. Should the
aspect Of affairs change we should sup,

MR.. BARLOW'S MAIL CON-
TRACTS.

The Burlington Free Press has pub
lished several articles, calculated to
create prejudice against Hon. Bradley
Barlow as a candidate for Congress.
an account Of his having been Il large
mail contractor and so managed his
matters as to get the best end of the
bargain with the government. The
charges were made for the most part
in the n. Y. San, which everybody
knows, and the Free Press admits, is
not the most reputable paper in the
world, anti, rs if to strengthen its po-
sition, the Free Press has copied from
the st. hans Messenger the reports of
the investigation at Washington, which
the Messenger had very fairly and i'm
partiallyprintcd from different New
York papers at the time, and has also
attempted to cmbarrass the Messenger
(Which supports Mr.. Barlow for Con
gress,) by quoting and occasionally
repeating certain passages from one of
the Messenger editorials, which seem
ed to reflect on Mr.. Barlow. This
method of putting the case has been
quite effective, and some one has
caused large numbers of the Free Press
to be sent into this county, and, We
presume, thr>iss4s the district. We
confess to have been very much influ-
enced in our Judgment against Ir.
Barlow by some of these statements,
but if they were erroneous, we are
willing TO be set right by the truth.
The Messenger is out with an article,
the benefit of which we are quite free
to give our readers. The Messenger
proceeds as follows:
But no matter for this. 1t is of little
concern to the public whether the Free
Press is truthful and fair or not. 1t is of
more moment at the present time wheth-
or or not Mr.. Barlow corrupted any con-
gresham or department official in the
matter of his contracts. The Free Press
is careful not to assert that he did. but by
frequently paIuding the fact that he adj
nitted having paid out from first to last
the sum Of $1,000 for the protection of
his business, it apparently hopes to ere
ate a belief in what it darcs not assert.
The figures do look rather formidable.
