Humbly Acknowledges That il WrOnged

ern Land Frauds.
Now Admits its Statement to be
"Without Foundation in TRUTH

In its issue of May 14th, the ST. Johns
News in an article written in the inter
est of the candidacy of J. W. Fitz.
gerald for congressman from this
district made charges that Cong. Ford
ney had been engaged in some western
land transactions which were decidedly
shady and that certified copies of papers
relating to the same were in the hands
of members of his party to be used at
the right time in the campaign. I'm
mediately upon his return from Wash
ington after the adjournment of Con-
gress Mr.. Fordney made a demand
upon the editor of the News for re-
traction of the statments contain eds fin
the article referred to and in its issue
of June % the following strong apology
and complete denial of its former state
ment appeared
Hon. Joseph w. Fordney demands re-
traction of the allegation that he is con-
nected with western land frauds
The retraction requested is hereby
given as follows:
In our issue of May 14th, 1908, with
reference to the congressional primary
election in this district, we said:
"There isn't Republican in the
whole eighth district who would be
compelled to hang his head in shame
or make any excuses for John W. Fitz-
gerald either in the primaries or at the
polls. This cannot with truth be said
regarding Congressman Fordney; for
should he be candidate, The News
has it on the best authority that he will
be asked to clear up land it is said the
facts and records are against him doing
it satisfactorily to the voters) some
western land transactions that haye
decidedly shady color to them. 1t is re-
ported to The News that certified copies
of papers in every case are in the hands
of members of Mr.. Fordneys own party
and that they will be used against him
in the coming campaign"
Since the publication of the above
article, Hon. Joseph W. Fordney has de-
manded a retraction from us of all
allegations and statements contained in
the above article which in any way re-
fleet upon his integrity or reputation
either as representative in congress or
a citizen, and that we retract every
allegation therein in any way indicat-
ing that he had any connection what
ever with western land frauds. We
are now satisfied that in the publication
of the above article we have done Mr.
Fordney gross And unwarranted in

notice that Mr. Atherton has pub.
lished in the various county papers a
statement to the effect that promised
four years ago that if given term in
the new court house would not again
become a candidate for Probate Judge.
l wish to state that never made such
promise to any one nor have 1 ever had
word with Mr.. Atperton on the sub
ject.
Since the people have honored Inc
with that Office have done my best to
discharge its duties with credit to both
myself and the county and trust have
done so and if they see fit to honor me
again I shall do my utmost to continue
such work with at least equal fidelity.

matter exactly right, the tariff needed
revision. The duty on some articles
should be raised. and on other lower
ed. He stated that he was in favor Of
protective tariff, and believed that the
greatest prosperity had always come
to the people of this nation under d
protective tariff.
Mr.. Fordney called attention to an
article which appeared in several news.
papers last week which attempted by
instruction to charge him with being a
member of some trust and working
in the interests of the trusts. He said
that he had never at any time or place
owned single dollars interest in any
trust of any kind or character, and
that the statements in the article were
absolutely false and malicious. He also
denounced as maliciousy false the
statement that trusts were contributing
to the expenses of his campaign. And
he said that he challenged any person
to show where any action he ever took
in Congress was not in the interests of
the people. In that connection he stat
ed that the st. Johns News had short
time ago printed libelous article con-
corning him which it had afterwards
abjectly retracted, but though it had
retracted all the statements in that
article and admitted that they were
false, yet he had been unable to procure
the name of the person who gave the
News the alleged information it print
ed; that he had endeavored in all honor
able ways to procure the name of the
News informer, but was unable to
obtain in.
The evening meeting at Perry was
one of the most successful held there
in several years. At this meeting he
paid his compliments to A. L. Chandler
in so emphatic manner that no one
present will forget it for some time to
come and evidently to the satisfaction
of the audience as he was warmly
applauded. This was called out by
slanderous statements made by Chand-
ler at Fitzgerald meeting the evening
before. And, by the way, the crowd at
Mr.. Fordney's meeting was four times
as large as at the Chandler meeting.
The only regret is that Mr.. Fordney
could not have spoken at many more
places in the county.

EDITOR TINES
We have been hearing not little the
past few weeks about rotation in Office.
To my mind it is not question of ro-
tation but of efficiency. What the
community needs is efficisnt service. l
do not care who Mr. Fordney voted for
at Chicago, but l do care about the
service the eighth district gets, and the
eighth district never had a more faith
full and efficient servant than Mr. Ford
ney. Shiawassee county never had a
more faithful and efficient Judge of

service we are after, fellow voters. Re-
