HERE'S TIE PROOF.
Last weeks Cresset contains this:

Last weeks Cresset contains this:
JOHN w. WYER. county commission
er from the second district. was IN
town Yesterday and after reading what
the INDEX had 10 say about him this
week. felt considerably provoked.
Among other things the organ said:
Het Wyerlwent to McGiunis before that con-
vention and entered into an agreement to
the effect that he would abide by the decision
OF the convention. And this was done on
Wyers own suggestion.
Mr.. Wyer says there is not particle
OF truth in the above statement, and
authorizes us to say so.''
When we read this we concluded that
the Axline Wyer combination had gone
on with their lying long enough and we
soon procured the documents to call
| them down. Extreme cases require
extreme measures, and when, in this
instance, we started out to bring these
preyarlcators down we concluded that
| the best thing to do was to hit them
hard so that they would remember it
| for all time to come. We therefore
procured and herewith publish the fol-
lowing affidavit:
j. b. McGinnis of lawful age being first duly
| sworn under oath, deposes and says: That
he is citizen of Moore township. Barber
county, Kansas; that he was in the city Of
Medicine Lodge on the fourth 4thl day of
| September, 1897, and that he saw and
conversed with John w. Wyer in
said city on said day. In said CONVEX
cation said John W wyer said to affant INC
Ginnis) IF you beat me in this convention I'll
| roll up my sleeves and work for you. If beat
| you want you to do the same" Afiant INC
/ Ginnis) replied az will
j. B. MCGINNIs,
Subscribed in my presence ard sworn to be-
fore me this 18th day of October. 1897.
WIN. F. SMITH.
Justice of the Peace.
Mr.. McGinnis is not alone in this as
sertion. a leading democrat of Barber
county also heard Mr. Wyer make the
Statement but he does not wish his
name to be used at this time.
The Cresset and John Wyer have both
done great amount of talking about
the INDEX lying and this is one of the
reasons why we introduce this affidavit.
Another reason for our introducing it
is to show that John Wyer is not a
truthful man and will violate any agree
ment at any time it suits him. WHO

The Hazelton Roller Mill was COM
