Good Vermont Farms That Have Been
Sold for Less Than 50 an Acre.
Recently Mr.. George w. Kennedy, in
communication TO the Free Press,
which has been copied to some extent
in other papers, expressed the opinion
that no good farms, capable of support
ing family, could be bought in Yer
mont for s. an acre. Various answers
to this correspondent we're published,
but names and figures seemed necessary
in order to convince. Following are
three communications, all from reliable
men, either one of which should settle
all doubts regardisg this matter. Further
e,i 0nce OF the same sort is easily a
tainable, but it is hored that these state
ments may serve to close this feature Of
the farm discussion. Huntington Free

side pocket the resolutions relating to the
impeachment of Judge White. arrived
here and was seen at the L0chiel. Mr..
Shiras would not say what he proposed
doing and it is understood that he will
not Introduce the impeachment resolu-
tions. He is undecided, however, and
said he was waiting TO hear from promi
nent lawyers and business men before he
would announce his programme. The
almost unanimous condemnation of the
project by the state press, and the fact
that the Allegheny bar did not approve
of it, has rather weakened Mr.. Shiras'
backbone. The fact that he constructed
the scheme without consultation with
any of the leaders is regarded as fatal to
its ultimate consummation. In the event
of the hoa permitting it to be read, it
will either be referred to committee to
die or be voted down at once.
