C. in the ar- j tide vou state as .oilov.s: "Thursday j night a meeting was held and ad' dressed by Sheriff Rector and otuers. I The sheriff, it is said, assured the op-! eratives of his support. T;e opinion ; was expressed here yesterday that but ! for the sheriff's attitude and that ol" "" ' nnrcnri ~ nnt affiliated with the V UVV Mi??<AV*VVS4 J operatives of t'.'.e mill management, that the matter cou;d have been ad justed.'' Now tais statement is abso-1 lutely untrue and false and is an in- ' justice to me, and I want *o state to, yo i, word for word ihe language 1 , 'used at the Monaghan mill, and lett you i know w;.at I said, which will be con-} firmed bv anv one who was present, i' 1 said as f llows: "That I was not , in sympathy with tiie I. \Y. W.'s and knew nothing whatsoever about it. neither was I i : sympathy wit Lewis *\Y> Parker of Monaghan mill, and that 1 was afraid that the occurrence would cause innocent people to suffer as there were a.number 01' people! 'a: the Monaghan mill who did not be-) long to t'.ie I. W. W.'s, but that in case any one did have to suffer for anything to eat that 1 would divide mj last crumb of bread with him or her." j ... Hr Xow, Mr. Editor, this, tne above, is ; true statement of what I said, and I J v thank my God that 1 have that kind oi ~ a spirit, and 1 ask you to print this* letter in justice to me, and if t.ie people wish to construe what 1 said a; ^Monaghan mill on last Thursday night as supporting toe I. W. W's or anywhere else, I cannot help it, but I am proud that I had the spirit in me ta say what I said. You might state tfnrtVi^r ifnr rhr interest of the Dl'.<OliC 'that I am a strong sun sorter of Qole. 1 1*. Blease for the senate probab?y t':.at is why your informer wanted to be so untrue and unjust in his statements. Please publish ttyis letter and send me a copy of the pa^er.
