The above is a likeness of Walter
X. FarnsWorth of Rutland one of
the best known young men in the
state and one of the candidates for
the office of Secretary of State.
Mr.. Famsworth was born in
Windsor in 1870. He lived there and
in Chester until 1898, attending
meanwhile Chester and Woodstock
high schools, His early boyhood was
spent on a farm. In 1898 he located
in Rutland and in 1895 began the
study Of law in the office of Judge
G. E. Lawrence, being admitted to
the bar in 1898 and has since prac-
ticed his profession in Rutland.
In 1898 and 1900 he was Assistant
Secretary of the Senate and since
1902 has been Secretary of that
body. In that capacity he made
many friends in both branches of
the Legislature and from all parts
of the state.
In 1906 Mr.. Farnsworth was ap-
pointed Judge of Rutland City
Court by Governor Proctor.
Since he entered upon his duties
April l, 1907 he has disposed of
over 500 criminal cases and many
civil ones in none of which has a
jury trial been asked for, which is
considered good evidence of the
confidence placed in his judgment
and honesty.
Mr.. FaTnsworth has always taken
an active interest in local matters
and has been one of the hardest
workers for the success of the Re-
publican party in the city and
of Rutland and is the Rut-
land county committeeman of the
Republican League of Vermont.
In 1906 he organized the Rutland
Horse Show which has given two of
the largest and most successful
open air horse shows ever held. At
the present time he is secretary of
that organization and also of the
Rutland County Fair. The latter
organization, through his efforts,
has taken on a new lease of life and
is now one of the largest fairs in
western Vermont.
Mr.. Farnsworth is a Mason, an
Elk and a member of Rutland
Valley grange.
He is a self made man and is con-
lucting his campaign without the
aid of an advertising agency, rely
