Ferguson, a Democratic bourbon,
and very mean one at that, politi-
cally, has been appointed to help
prosecute the principals IN the
Lon1as-Sciota disaster. He was
also foreman on the jury that in
dicted the defendants. Some Re-
publican is to blame for this out
rage and if it is ever found out
who it is we will take pleasure in
giving him some notoriety. 1t is
an insult to every Republican in
the Saskatchewan.
The Telegram is both wrong and
right.
The Judge is a prohibitionist,
and whoever heard Of a prohibition
bourbon?
The Judge was not on the jury
named.
Of course a Republican is respon-
sible for the Judges appointment
and Mr.. Brewster is the man.
