We understand it is not uncommon for the gentleman to be made a ‘cat’s paw’ of by politicians longer headed than he is. “It I were at liberty to give Mr. Webster all, or quite a part, of “the knowledge in my possession, about the origin and spread of this epidemic, I think he would be ashamed of him- self, and as he really knows nothing about the ‘inside facts, the public can be congratulated tha the is in a posi- tion where he can circulate only rumors ,and misstatements. “If I were to make public all the things which have ‘come to my know- ledge in this epidemic, it would do a great amount of harm, hurt many en- tirely innocent people, ' and do mno possible good. : i *“Mr. Webster seems to be 'peeved* because the health officer did not seek his valuable advice in the manage- m of these matters, but if he had comel to me for information, and it had seemed best to give it to him, it is reasonable to suppose that this sense of honor might not have been any greater than that of another man, who after being told certain things which had come to my knowledge, under the seal of absolute confidence and secrecy, in fact in & oconfidential disclosure, and in an attempt to shield innocent people, reported what I had said. “Under such conditione as this, it should not be wondered at that the health officer soon learned that he had to ‘take all the responsibllity on' his own shoulders.’ “After the selectmen were awake to the serious condition which we had on hand, they have stood back of, and given gvery aid to the health officer, and their calm ‘good sense has been in marked contrast to that of such hysterical and nervous critics as Mr. 'Webster. Lt s 'When any one meddles in such matters as these, matters which often involve the question of life or death, and the happiness, prosperity and reputation of a whole community, thout & very -clear and definite knowledge of the facts and conditions, he is ‘not only doing s great injury to the puble, but he is working harm, and doing darhage In many ways that he cannot know of, and damage which can never be repaired, o " . Such & person,”like a rheddlesome old. village goesip, is one of the most dangerqus: factors to the peace and prosperity of any town. A very few such individuals render any town ‘an undesirgble place of residence.’ For- tunately, Berlin has not many such. So far as. T am concerned, this ends all newspaper controversy. I am too old to be loaking for fight, and I would not walk across my front dooryard to hang the .scalp of the best man in town at my belt, but if any one is hunting trouble, and looking for a scrap, I have just enough Irish blood in me to diglike to see ‘any man go away dissatisfied because no one would accommodate him.’ . “R.
