THE CONGRESSIONAL RACE.

The statement of Mr.. McRae
makes it plain that he holds lien
on a certain part of the outfit of the
Hollow Rock Record, and if he will
state that his notes represent all the
stock or value of the Enterprise and
it's outfit at the time it was moved
to Mckenzie, and that Mr.. Cole did
not furnish any money to aid inpur-
chasing the Enterprise, and that
there has not been an understand
ing that Mr.. Cole would see that
the purchase money was paid we
will publish that statement.
Mr.. McRae says he sold to AL
len and Fryer and took their notes.
Allen says, 81 bought it myself,
giving Mr.. McRae my notes for
same"
We understand that Mr.. Cole
was the man behind Allen-who
really bought and moved the En-
terprise to Mckenzie. We might
have been mistaken about the face
of the transaction, but we are not
far from the real truth of the mat
ter.
Mr.. Allen says, "Mr. Cole never
was interested in the paper or con-
trolled its editorials"
Mr.. Cole says, "You will please
print the enclosed statements from
your fellow citizen A. G. McRae
and W. j. Allen, of Mckenzie,
which clearly show the truth"
Mr.. Cole then endorses fully Mr..
Aliens statements.
We charged that Mr.. Cole was
running the Laborers' Advocate, q
sub-treasury organ, at Mckenzie
and later at Paris, where it died Oh
his hands.
Now, let us see if he was running
tive will, if necessary produce {
letter in regard to it written by one
of Mr.. Coles friends which vii
confirm this statement and show
the connection of Mr.. Cole with i
at Mckenzie and Paris.
At present we want to call atten
ton to Mr.. Coles letter to "Brothe
Gwinn," in confirmation of wha
we say, and in contradiction of MI
Aliens statement so fully endorsed
by Mr.. Cole.
