To the Newspaper Editors of Amer
lea:
Three or four weeks ago the news
papers of the country were printing
a dispatch to the effect that Presi-
dent Roosevelt had made an invest
igation and convinced himself OF
the falsity of the charges made in
The Jungle" and that he proposed
to make its author the center of his
Man With the Muck Rake" speech.
The basis of this story was a two
column dispatch, which was printed
in the Chicago Tribune on April 10,
signed by its Washington cores
pondent. In this dispatch these
statements were made positively,
and with every appearance of au-
thority as coming directly from the
president and at his desire; and from
first to last the story was a fabrica-
tion.
1t was one more illustration of
how the beef trust fights. For near
ly two years now ! have been con
tending against these secret in
auences. They have sent men to
bribe me; they have put detectives
at work tracing my past, in the hope
of finding something to compromise
me; they have circulated falsehoods
about me in the newspapers, and
tried to influence my publishers
against bringing out my book; they
have discharged men in the stock
yards whom they suspected of hav.
ing gHen me information; they have
Montana news. [volume] (Lewistown, Mont.) 1904-191?, 1906-05-10

The capitalist papers are attempting
TO carry out the insuiferable hypocricy,
that Heinze's candidacy for the senate
means the triumph Of democracy in
Montana. When Heinze goes into the
senate because Clarke let him go In,
and the Amalgamated let him go in,
and the fool workingmen of Montana
voted for representatives to elect a
senator for the Amlgamated to repre-
sent their rags. the copper interests
will rule Montana as they always have
done; wages will be cut the militia
will shoot strikers, and the mules will
get what they voted for.
