A Statement of Fact.

We have received the following let
ter from Francis Finnegan, an old
time resident of this county and the
gentleman who enjoys the distinction
of being the first volunteer to enlist
in the town of Hyde Park in 81.
We do not wish to say anything in
addition to what has already been
said with reference to the matter to
which Mr.. Finnegan refers, but We
hardly feel at liberty to omit publ
cation of a communication from one
so highly esteemed by the people of
this region.
TRUcKEE, Cal. April 30, 1890.
Editor Ofthe News and Citizen -
L have noticed in print an insinuation that
Carroll 5. Page was disloyal to his country
during the war He was well-tried friend of
mine and should not feel justified to silently
look on and see him belied without raising nv
voice in his behalf Before positively deny
such insinuations, | wish to state my means
of knowledge of the facts
About three years before my enlistment |
became an employe of X. ). Page-CarroIl's
father-and from the first was treated and re-
garded as member OF his family; and at that
time my business duties at once became a
part of Carrolfs duties, and so remained I'M
til the time of my enlistment, during which
time we learned to respect and regard each
other as brothers. At the time of the break
ing out of the war, nearly two years were re
qulred to complete my engagement with the
father which he at once cancelled after | in
formed him that | wished to enlist, with an
understanding that / should complete my
time after my return. This arrangement com
pleted, and the consent of my mother OBJ
tanned, became the first in the town of Hyde
Park to enlist for the war. At the time of my
enlistment Carrolls father was afflicted with
a spinal trouble, which some of the best ply
sicians in the country pronounced incurable,
and liable at any time to end his days. Car
roll, who was then eighteen years of age and
under his fathers control, did not enlist; but
had it not been for what we deemed almost
BILE hindrance have the best of
reasons for believing that he would have so
done. Before my enlistment and on to the
time l had participated in all the engage
ments known to Vermont's old 2nd Reg't, |
from Bull Run to OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES the |
rebels marked me so they would know me in |
the fUture-and even on to my second enlist |
ment and to the close of the war, he offered |
words of cheer and encouragement though |
my services we're very much needed at home.
Yours &c.

The Middlebury Registerthus terselv
puts the matter of the fitness of a
candidate for congress in the first
district:
Clap-trap ''claims" of one locality
or another are entitled to no weight
whatever. The point at issue is not
that Bennington county has not had
a representative since Hiland Hall,
but which of the two men will-judg-
ing by his natural ability, his char
acter, his standing among men and
his past achievements-do most to
further the cause of good govern
ment. A very large preponderence of
the representative men of this county
are thoroughly that Judge
Powers is that man, and we believe
they are right.
