than the Cubans, that they are better
people than the. Cubans in every way. l

was settled, and 1 think that after lit

SURGEON JACKSON RESIGNS.
Capt. Joe. w Jackson of Barre, assist.
ant surgeon Of the Vermont National
Guard, has rendered his resignation to Col.
Estey, the same to take effect at once
The resignation is not voluntary, but at
the urgent request of the colonel, who
wrote the doctor on the 18th saying he
wanted the resignation but giving no rea-
son therefor. Dr. Jackson refused to re-
sign without reasons and a second letter
was received from Col Estey repeating
his demands but giving no reasons there
for as requested by the doctor.
The only apparent reason is that of po'-
tics, and perhaps the colonel is pa ying for
his election.
