The following letter, bearing on the

Sept 4, 1915
Hon. Oakley c. Curtis
Portland, Me.
Dear Governor Curtis:-
l note in the Lewiston Daily Sun Of
Saturday morning, Sept 2, your ref
erence to the names of two men found
on the pay roll of one of the State
hospitals, who were not at work at
the institution at the time, and that
this was while the State hospitals were
under a Republican board of trus-
| tees.
| You follow this by remarking that
You find You cannot trust Republicans
after they get into politics. This ex-
preston, following your reference to
the hospitals, is criticising and shows
how little you appreciated the faith
L Oi SCI WIGS VI ILLS DOdIU, ana now
little you deserved the courtesy and
consideration which you and your
political henchmen received at their
hands.
AS one of the men on the hospital
pay roll and not working, l assume
you refer to Mr.. Sampson, the aged
engineer at the Augusta State hospi-
tai, who served the institution faith
fully something over As years, with
out a vacation, and when taken sick
the trustees did not Immediately have
his name stricken from the pay roll
recall that you made much of this
when you took occasion to call the
trustees before you in the Council
chamber, for the purpose of attempt
ing to belittle boards Of trustees gen
orally and particularly this one, which
happened to be Republican at the
time.
VIII you have the kindness to write
me, by return mail, and give me the
rame of the second person to whom
you refer as being on the pay roll Of
the hospital, although not at work
there?
Trusting you will be as prompt in
replying to this request as you were
in answering my letter to you as sec
rotary, notifying you Of the action Of
the board Of hospital trustees in vot-
ing to proceed with plans and speci-
fications for the renovation of the
second male wing at Augusta State
hospital, when you informed me that
the appropriation was not available
and that no expenditures for this pur-
tpcse would be honored or allowed,

Very truly yours.
