THAT

We have repeatedly charged thai
Bradley defrauded the STATE Central
Committee out of every dime of his
assessment $500 in the campaign of
1870. In making this charge we knew
exactly what we Were talking about,
and knew, further. that we could estab-
lish the truth of the allegation Ivy the
most indi>putable testimony. We are
glad that we are nov called upon 10 90
SO. Bradley was at Elko last week.
and while there attempted the follow
ing defense through the columns .:
the Independent:
When the assessment of candidates
was levied by the committee in $50,
Mr.. Kendall was one of the number
assessed. and he was also desired 10

he consented only upon condition that
all his expenses should be paid by the
committee. which was at length agreed
to. As the treasury wa empty III the
