TO THE TAX PAYERS OF YER
MONT.

Among the evils of the present day,
the great inequality in the apportion-
ment of taxes is not among the least
and deserves more attention in con-
nection with our selection of members
for our State assembly than we have
heretofore given. Our burden of tax
alton is necessarily large, but is I'M
necessarily too large. In these times
when the day laborer has hard work
to find sufficient remunerative employ
ment to keep the wolf from the door,
and when the farmer is obliged to sell
his produce at such ruinously low
prices that he cannot afford to pay
even the comparatively small wages
that he does, and when salaried men,
and money lenders seem to be about
the only members of society, who are
The Lamoille news. (Hyde Park, Vt.) 1877-1881, 1878-07-10

10 The fight begins TO rage along
the line. In Burlington, the centre oil
the anti-Barlow ring, where the Free
Press has been pouring out the vials
of its venom and where there was an
organized opposition to Barlow, he
polled s24 votes, His ticket had such
names as Walter Carpenter, f. c.
Kennedy, j. A. Sheid, E. r. Hard
W. l.. Burnap and others, and was
only defeated by the most strenuous
efforts of the vilifers. Colchester and
Essex elected Barlow delegates. st.
Albans, Swanton, Highgate, Georgia
and Berkshire in Franklin County
have elected Barlow men which make 1t
almost if not quite certain that Frank
lin County will be solid. No. Hero
in Grand Isle County has gone for
Barlow as in all probability nearly all
of Grand Isle County will go. Bur
lington has not disappointed MIR. Bar
lows friends at all, as it was expected
that it would go against him.

Er Mark what we say. Gen. w.
w. Grout will not go to Congress this
time. He and Sowles r to be
among those unfortunates who get
sacrificed for the good of some one
else. 0 Temporal! 0 moreS. Those
two men have furnished the powder for
this most shameful and slanderous
campaign by the Free Press, and yet
that paper knows, and in fact, intends
that neither of these men shall be sue
cessful. We know that if the good
people of the Third District knew
what we know of this political SQUAD
BILE they would not be led by the nose
to do just what they did not intend to
do, but what a few men, including G..
G.. Benedict and others have intended
they should do.

proving true that he had no strength
at all in his own town and county
lie did not poll a vote in st. Adams
nor in Highgate which he said he
could carry, aud in Swanton where
his father resided and where he has
large agricultural aud banking inter
csfs and where, moreover he worked
personally, declaring himself on the
day preceding the canvass as san
guinc, he polled only 80 out Of l44
votes. Now why do we go for Bar
low The election lies between him
and Gruut. Though not what we
wish he was, vet Barlow is morally a
better man than Grout. As a iinan-
cier. and in these times we need men
of ability in just that line, he has no
equal in the state. The very fact that
for fifteen years he has been in the
employ of the Government and twice
investigated, and constantly promi-
nent before the public, and yet
all that has been drummed up against
his public career is a little democrat
ic thunder from the New York Sun,
this very fact marks him as a man
of great business ability and sterling
integrity. Moreover no man who has
ever done business with him, and his
business connections have been large,
bul sdeaks in his praise as a gener,
Gus, fair dealing man. Another rea-
son that should have weight in La
noble County, is the fact that Grout
endeavored to make a compact with
Barlow that in no case should Hendee
be allowed to go again. If neither OF
them should win Circuit wished to ar
range with Barlow so that they should
throw their votes on to some other
party aside from Hendee, who was to
be counted out in any event. Now
Lamoille County has not been at all
forward in forcing Mr.. IIendee upon
this district and consequently does
not like to have men who ask for her
votes trying to beat their favorite any
way, even if unsuccessful themselves.
1t is needless to say that Mr.. Barlow
utterly refused to enter into any such
arrangement. LamOiHe County, for
uard your votes Jor Barlo'c and if he
does not win we will send Hendee back
again.

a SPECIM EN- LIE.

This mornings Free Press has an
article over the signature ''X.,"" which
says cit comes from good authority
that he (Basford) offered his services,
naming his price, to Mr.. Sowles. OF
course he was Tebuked and his offer
declined" That is an unmitigated
falsehood and is just in accord with
the miserably, low, unprincipledmeth-
cd of conducting this campaign
against Mr.. Barlow. We know not
who can be the father ofthis falsehood.
1t is suggested that it is Mr.. Sowles
himself, but we cannot believe it. We
have too much respect for his charac-
ter and his shrewdness even to believe
it. Months ago, Edward A. Sowles'
most intimate friend wrote a letter to
q leading citizen of this village in
which he says in speaking of Edward
A. that edward against my desire and
advise, has concluded to run for Con-
gress. Will you see at what price we
can secure the services of the Hyde
Park paper?" This was before the
campaign opened. We peremptortly
declined to put ourselves IN the market.
We stop right here. If we could be-
lieve Edward A. Sowles was father OF
the falsehood We would continue, but
it cannot be. We believe it to be
just a specimen of the innumerable
lies of which the Free Press is father.
If it really comes from Mr.
Sowles and he wishes to father 1t, we
shall be obliged to take the stand once
more. If we were not for Barlow and
never had been, the methods fthe Fret
Press would lead us to his support
If all FRANKLIN County, including three
hundred of the best men in St. Albans
where Mr.. Barlow lives, do not know
him, who does? Deas. Stevens, Hun
ington, Wyman, Mills, Christian
men like Mr.. Rublee, Tinker, BEEN
an, and in fact all of the best men o
-
st. Adams and Franklin County, ar,
|, strenuous in endeavoring to correc
the ISLANDERS against Mr.. Barlow, whicl
, they know to be false. Thus, we see
that the tactics of his opponents hav'
, been of a two-fold character: 1st
+ the most venal corruption I'd, tn,
' prostitution Of religion to the base pc
litical proposes Of some of its profes
sors, mainly in Burlington. 1t is tim
4 for truth, fairness and good sense t
/ assert themselves against such hypo
h critical vilifers, and the only way t
| do it is to sustain the man who is sus
e tanned by all the good men who bes
L know him, and to apply to his traduc
u ers the injunction, "Let him who j
c without sin cast the first stone"

10 The Free Press tries to make a
point on the Barlow vote in ST. Al
bans, claiming that it ought to have
been larger, and yet the votes we're
nearly as large as at the recent eau
Gus for County convention where there
was an exciting contest between two
local candidates for County senator.
We consider it as a vindication ofMr.
Barlow that not a vote was cast
against him in so large a place as st.
Adams, where, if the stories were true
against him he would be most certain
