the court made the allowance
for attorneys fees this amount
was put down to $4,000. This
claim asked for the fee for H. L.
Goodwin as much as it did for the
other two lawyers, and it is the
firm belief of every one that he
got his full share. -.
It is a well-known fact that
M husband, VINO was then in
the full vigor of his manhood,
rendered Mr.. HI. Goodwin valu
able assistance in the convention
which nominated him for Con-
gress the first time. He had
worked and toiled for him and
done everything he could for
Mr.. Goodwin, and many people at
this convention who heard the
speech made by my husband say
that it was in a great measure
the cause of his nomination, and
was the cause of his receiving a
salary of 81, 500 for the pas
four years. However, when it
came Mr.. Godwin's time to repay
any of this kindness to the wild
ow and children of his dead
friend and former law partner,
the money which was allowed by
! the court for her support, and
the support of her and his child
rem, went in part to fill his al
ready full pocket, and more would
have gone for this purpose hao
the court not said, "You have
enough, Withhold your hand"
This money was paid for my
husbands blood. l feel that the
Supreme Ruler will take notice
of such actions, and will put il
into the hearts Of the people Of
this district, among whom my
husband labored and whom hi
loved, to rebuke this man, and tt
say, we have had enough Of sucf
as you.

SANDY McKINNON.
Knows Needs of Farmers
Should Have Robeson's Solid
Strength.
Editor Robesonian:

Editor Robesonan:
Now that the congressional
campaign is drawing to a close
and a few more days and then
the decisive day, and in view of
the fact that some of Mr.. God-
wins friends seem inclined to
criticise Mr.. McKinnon's con-
nection with the county Cotton
Growers Association. we want
to say that we do not claim for
him that God endowed him las
he did Isaiah of old with pro-
phetic vision that he might be
able to see what God holds in
store for any Of US. But if he
possesses the power that can
huctuate the cotton market at
will, this is an argument per
Sc" that he is the man we want.
Why, if he has greater powers
than even the combined cotton
bulls and bears, "nhat a power he
would be from the sixth district
in the congressional halls. We
want to say, however, that those
who know Mr.. McKinnon best,
not ''by reputation" alone but
personally, know him to be a
man true to every conviction
and many there are today-some
in the spirit land and others
here who can testify thatSandy
McKinnon was and is the friend
to rich and poor alike. True, he
has received the endorsement of
ministers, lawyers, doctors, far.
mers and mechanics. Does this
disqualify him? If the man who
is endorsed by all classes is in
competent, then where shall We
find a man? True, he is not al
eminent lawyer, but when Coo
wanted a king to rule over hi,
chosen people. whom did h,
choose? David, the shepherd
boy, was his choice. The farmer
compose the majority of thi
district. Who do you suppos
knows more of their needs,
lawyer (Godwin), or a success
full farmer (McKinnon)?
We are glad to say in conclu
sion that we know Mr.. McKir
' non, not only by reputation bu
t personally, and we believe, lik
many others, that he is the bes
y equipped man in the race. w
have no filings to make at NJ!
q Goodwin; we believe him to be
I good lawyer; but why not Civ
y the farmers a chance? In unto

Burlington Traction Company Buys
Water Rights in Vergennes.

Burlington, May 21.-The Burling-
ton Traction company has purchased
of DR.. w. Seward Webb the water
rights of the falls on Otter creek in
Vergennes, according to a statement
made by j. ]. Flynn, director of that
company. The deed to the property
has not been made yet and Mr. Flynn
stated that he did not wish to make
known the purchase price.
The water rights purchased COM
prises the principal power of the falls
It consuming all the water in the
creek during the summer time when
the water Is low. This fall probably
has been utilized longer for manufac-
turing purposes than any other water
fall in Vermont.
When asked concerning the propos-
ed extension of the electric line to
Vergennes. Mr.. Flynn said that he did
not know as yet when the line would
be extended. No surveys have been
made, but last fall there was much
talk OF such a line. The purchase of
the new water right will make an
electric line to Vergennes possible
whenever the directors see fit to build
one.
