North Park union., 1906-11-02

for principle: fighting for County.
something | have always fought for:
fighting for honesty; fighting Drake
and Wollaver. whoi broke their
pledges; fighting incompetency in
aspiring office holders, in short.
fighting the battle of ninety per
cent of the North Park people who
signed petitions for a new county, is
PREJUDICE; then I am preju-
diced. and what is more will stay
that way, rather than gain all the
business on earth for being dishon-
est | would RATHER FAIL TEN TIMES
IN SUCCESSION, meaning a life time of
failures. and then have the consola-
ton of knowing when passed in
my final check. that had tried to
be HONEST: rather than to have
all the wealth on earth, at that time,
through dishonesty.
Notice. if you please. that on Sun
day. while Ken was mad, we admit,
he believed that Mari and Drake
entered a SECRET DEAL to de-
feat North Park becoming a new
County. On Monday he did not ap-
pear to be as mad. He informed
the writer then that there was no
SECRET DEAL to prevent North
Park becoming a separate county.

Miner, or any member on the Re-
publican ticket, or on the County
Republican Central Committee.
The UNION cannot vote for Ken
MacCallum to become Commission
er because we regard him as the
innocent tool of Mari and Drake,
! who we are prepared to prove, made
the SECRET DEAL; the story
coming from source that cannot
be contraoicted: and while we be-
lieve Ken is innocent of all knowl-
edge of the deal, according to his
own personal knowledge; the fact
remains, nevertheless. that Drake
and Mari are using Ken to pull as
many chestnuts out Of the fire as
possible: that Ken. apparently. in
his eagerness for office. is not as
brave in coming out and telling me
that Drake and Wollaver and the
people in the lower end of the
county could go to hell. but | am
fighting to win in an open and square
fight. or not at all; no. he did not
say that; hence. we say. his state

Wollaver: Notwithstanding it hao
placed itself on record in favor OF a
new county; something Ken and c.
E. Mosman worked for as hard as
anybody; and when it was betrayed
the Union denounced both Drake
and Wollaver as traitors because
they did not keep their word: tells
why we cannot support Ken. be-
cause. too, If he can be used as a
tool in one case. the chances are
that he can be used as an innocent
tool in others. which, in the end. is
very liable to prove to the detri-
ment of North Park. We are sorry
because of the facts brought out. to
have to fight Ken. and with this
statement we must leave eachNorth
Parker to decide the question oi
voting for Ken for himself or herself
When the Union editor asked c.
E. Mosman If he desired to make
any reply to the charges published
last week. he said on Tuesday
morning. that he had no reply tc
make. but added: You know there
is nothing to the SECRET DEAL
story. Ken told you as much by
word of mouth. (and right herd: the
editor wants to add in ken's favor
that he stated, when denying the
SECRET DEAL story, that if his
word was no good. his signature
