Mr.. EDITOR An article appeared In
the Montpelier Argus under date of May
23d. i'm which the writer. or rather.
should say writers, charge the under
signed with bargain and sale at the last
September election. We therefore deem
il our duty to make this our public de-
NAL Of this most foul and malicious SLAM
der. and will here say that never did a
word pass between US, or friends acting
for US, relative to anything of the kind
before or since the election TO our knowl- !
edge or belief. and the whole thing is a
falsehood from beginning to end. An
other charge was that young Mr.. Trask |
was in some way made TO sign papers |
drawn by other parties to his disadvan- |
tage, when in fact the only papers he |
signed he dictated and wrote every word |
himself. So much for that. OF the 9TH
er matters referred to in same article we
do not care enough about them to make |
reply further than to say we are perfect
ly willing that the eminent writer's of |
that article should enjoy their own opin-
IONS so long as they do not harm us and |
we prefer to leave the matter just where |
the Republicans of Rochester left IL, |
namely seventy majority on the first bal
lot. G.. J.. CHAFFEE,
