The Burlington Free Press in its
report of the Mccullough rally at
Morrisville states that there were
present from 5000 to 1000 people.
The population of Morrisville is
about 1900. The population of La
noble county in which Morrisville is
situated is about 10000. The voting
population of Morristown is about
700. The 6b shop of the Burlington
Free Press was in good working or
der yesterday-RutIand Herald.
For the benefit of the Rutland
Herald we would state that the
above rally was Lamoille County
affair. While Morrisville turned out
in great numbers, all parts of La
noble County and many adjoining
towns were well represented. 1t is
not "fbbing" in the least to state
that 1000 people were present and
that it was the greatest political
mass meeting ever held in Lamoille
Coun ty. The Free Press did not ex-
agerate the attendance in the least.
The Rutland Herald for the sake of
saying something derogatory of this
great rally, resorted to its old-time
tactics. Dear Herald, Lamoille Coun-
ty Republicanism is all right,
