URGES VOTERS TO
SUPPORT OSGOOD
Man Who Formerly Was
His Neighbor Mentions Some of
Doctors Qualifications.
To the Voters of Windham County,
Both Men and Women

To the Voters of Windham County,
Both Men and Women
Through the medium of this paper l
should like to make known few facts
to the voters of Windham county.
In the days before the primary law
became operative Windham county had
one senator from the south end and
one senator from the north end. But
at the last two sessions of the legis-
lature both senators have been chosen
from the south end. At this primary
| hope and trust the voters will see
fit to give the north part of the county
a senator.
The north district has right to ex.
pect senator and in the selection of
Frederick L. Osgood of Rockingham
they can make no mistake. DIR. Os-
good represented the town of Rocking
ham in 1917 and was chairman of the
committee on public health and a mem
Der of the committee on appropriations,
both important committees. In these
committees and in the house DIR. Os-
good did splendid work and voted right.
ANY member of the house will vote for
a certain number of good bills, but un.
less a man has good business head
and courage to stand on both feet
squarely for the right he will be influ-
cnced or fattered into voting for bills
that are bad for the state as a whole.
DR.. Osgood voted for woman s suffrage,
but he did not vote for the barge ter
minal, which was a bill to build into
Lake Champlain a terminal for the city
of Burlington. This bill carried with
it an appropriation of $250,00O These
are times when measures of economy
should be recognized and enacted. Also
DR.. Osgood did not vote to increase his
own salary. When man is elected to
the legislature or senate he knows the
amount of pay he is to receive and is
not expected to raise his own salary.
Did any of the candidates for sena-
Tor from Windham county vote to give
the city of Burlington quarter of q
million dollars and at the same session
vote to raise his own pay2 Did They'll
Ask them or any member of the ses-
sion of 1919
Frederick l.. Osgood is a safe man
to send from the north end of Wind
ham county; man who does not strad-
die questions; a man of courage and
honor, who will work unselfishIy for
Windham county and Vermont.
Having been former neighbor of
DR.. Osgood / have taken the liberty to
call the attention of the voters to the
above facts.
