Senator Pettigrew saws TO the
Washington correspondent Of the
Sioux City Journal on Dec. g.:
"All this talk about my intention to
rctaliate on Senator Hanna for his
opposition to me ia South Dakota is
pure fabrication. Mr.. Hanna had a
perfect right to make a fight against
me and | equally justified in con.
tending against him. I have moth
ing to regret as to the course I have
taken, and l entertain no feeling of
resentment against the administra-
ton from q personal standpoint.
! am opposed to the ship subsidy
bill because / believe it to be un wise
legislation"
