sLETTER FROM MR.. MERRILL.
Did Not Say His Opponent Would Get 300
Majority In Bennington.

Editor the Banner:-The following
article appeared in the Bennington
Banner of Saturday evening "Mr
Merrill says that the Town of Benning.
ton will give his Republican opponent
about 800 majority and that this will be
more than overcome by the towns in
the northern part of the county"
l am surprised that you should have
published an alleged statement made
by me without first having ascertained
its truthfulness.
Qhis statement is false in every par
ticular and is made out of whole cloth,
while [ have never boasted of being
able to carry the town OF my nativity
1 most emphatically state that / have
never admitted that I would be defeat
ed in said town.
At the present writing no one knows
who will be the next States Attorney
of Bennington County. If the voters
who have for years criticised the ad-
ministration of affairs in this the
most important Office in the county,
sometimes so tiercely as to approach
slander if their charges we're true,
were to vote for me my election would
be assured.
Periods of calm are often preceded
by storm, danger signals are also
past by those long in service, while |
have been flippantly assailed in the
columns of your paper l am willing
to abide my time.
Respectfully yours,
John V. d. S. Merrill.

By Frank Plumley.-
The republican party believes that
with the people surrounded with good
homes, good schools and purity of
life, the labor question is being solved
the best that it ever will be until sell
fishness of labor and capital is done
away with.
The democracy has opposed the Phil
ippine policy but will shortly declare
that the Philippines are irrevoc-
ably established, and in eight years
more when we shall have completed
the Panama canal they will declare
that matter also to be irrevocably es-
tablished.
In reply by Bourke Cochrane.-
The republican party is not one Of
cons truction. The democratic party
has originated every measure that men
will defend.
The republicans have seized the
Philippines and fastened to the coun-
try a robber tariff.
The gold standard exists today, not
because OF the republican party, but
in spite of it.
