The above are Mr. Herolz's sworn
statements, made prior and sub.
sequent TO the making OF the above
loans. Now, Why has the gentleman
failed to answer the question OF the
Record-made three weeks ago
WHERE DID HE GET THE MONEY
WHICH HE USED FOR MAKING
THE ABOVE LOANs?"
He may a. the last moment-when
it is too late 20 contradict him in the
newspapers Of the connty-say that
the money was procured from Arthur
DUDLEY, an eastern capitalist 10 whom
Sir. II. sells his farm mortgages-a
man who waa a customer of the Lin
ton State Bank until Mr.. Herolz, while
protesting friendship for the owners
of that bank "honswoggled" the bank
out Of said customer by an offer OF
bigger bonus. But every real-estate
man knows that local dealer must
first loan his own money and complete
the deal before he is able to sell the
mortgage to an eastern capitalist.
Will he now, after remaining silent
all this time, make an explanation"
that suits himself. when it is too late
for a reDly on the Dart of the Record?
And. If he does SO, should his state
ments be entitled to serious considera-
ton on the part of the taxpayers of
Emmons county?

Let us make comparisons between
two men who are running for the
legislature in this district.
1t was G. A. Herolz who. without
knowing MIR. futile, procured from
his wife the writing of one of the
nastiest letters that ever appeared in
print-a letter SO filthy that i, would
seem almost impossible that a woman
claiming to be decent could write it.
A letter Of which the widow OF an
early settler recently remarked: II
scarcely know whom have the least
respect fOr--the female who wrote
It or the professed Christian who
procured It to be written" 1t was
ootained by Mr.. Herolz-not that
Mr.. futile had ever injured Herolz
or Patterson-but for the cold.

Herolx Emmons county votes that in
'he absence of the circular would
nave gone to futile. And it sue
cecded In procuring many such votes.

She was brought to the county jail
by Sheriff Tracy late yesterday after
noon from Hardwick where she has
been since her departure from the
asylum on an order for her recommit-

superior court. Miss Brewster's case
was referred to Judge Taylor by
Judge A. A. Hall, who released her
from the asylum after an investigation
of her case.
The release of Miss Brewster from
the asylum was made largely Oh the
plea of Mr. and Mrs w. H. Ross of
Hardwick who promised to care for
and give her good home. 1t is I'M

hard one for Miss Brewster became
stubborn, unmanageable and showed
again the amorous proclivities which
led TO the shooting several years ago

wife did not care to be responsible
for Miss Brewster any longer and he
left the matter to Judge Taylor who
has ordered her returned to the asy-

MACK REPLIES TO ROOSEVELT
Democratic Chairman Says He Re-
celved No Money From Taggart.

New York Sept. 23.-Norman E.
Mack, chairman Of the Democratic
National committee addressed a tele-
gram to President Roosevelt, in which
he denied fatty statements contained
in published interview between
Timothy l.. Woodruff, chairman of
the Republican State committee, and
President Roosevelt which were print
ed In a local paper yesterday. Chair
man Mack's telegram to the Presl-
dent Is as follows;
II noticed in the New York Trib-
une of this morning that you are quot
ed by Timothy l.. Woodruff, chairman
of the Republican State committee,
in the following interview which Mr..
Woodruff gave out from Oyster Bay:
incidentally the President remarked
that he considered 1t significant that
100000 had been found in the treas
ury Of the Democratic party after
Judge Parker had declared through.
out the last national campaign that
the party's treasury was receiving
nothing from corporations; and fur
Their because it was announced at the
time of the election that the treasury
was empty. The President said that
he thought It looked queer that such
large sum of money should turn up
after Mr.. Haskell was appointed treas
urer of the Democratic National com
mittee.'
"If you are quoted correctly, no
doubt you have in mind the publica
ton in the New York American re

ocratic National committee, received

Chairman Mack said he hoped "a

some time today His telegram to
the President was directed to oyster
Bay.
After dispatching the telegram to
President Roosevelt, Chairman Mack
said. 1T is very evident from Mr.
Roosevelt's statement that both Mr.
Hitchcock and Mr. Taft have been
deposed from their position and are
no longer active factors in the cam
paign. Mr.. Roosevelt practically re
pudiates both men. President Roose
welt is running the campaign, He has
not only assumed the place of his
candidate for the presidency but he
has also taken Mr.. Hitchcocks place;
is the entire Republican national
committee, the board of strategy; the
advisory board and has placed him
self in every other position where
big stick methods rule"

LOSS OF A MILLION
A DAY BY FIRE IN
AD|RONDACKS
COnfIagratiOn in Heavy Forests
Increasing Hourly
THOUSANDS FIGHT FLAMES
Gangs Of Men Being Rushed Into
Woods From Cities asNew Danger
Spots Appear.

Albany, Sept. 23.-The forest fire
conditions in all parts of the Adiron-
dacks are growing worse hourly, with
no sign of rain, although at least 5000
men are engaged in fighting the
flames day and night. Not a single
fire has been checked and the smaller
burning areas are rapidly spreading
into vast CONGREGATIONS, which in
some Instances are coalescing. At
least $4,000 acres of valuable forest
lands are on fire and the extent of the
destruction may be much greater.
A big fire has broken out at North
Hudson, in Essex county, where 250
men are fighting 1t in two divisions,
some attacking it from the east and
others from the west. This fire is
already miles In extent. Small fires
are springing up in a hundred locali-
ties and the situation is becoming ex-
tremely alarming. Gangs of men are
being rushed into the woods from the
cities to fight the fires.
At the North Woods club q popular
resort, twenty miles north of North
Creek, patronized by fashionable peo-
pie, many OF the guests who had
come up to hunt are leaving and has
tening back to their homes, as fires
are burning on all sides of the club
property and the smoke conditions
are extremely annoying.
A large fire is reported to have
broken out at Blue Mountain lake and
a force of men is rushing there to
contend with II. In the village Of
North Creek the smoke is so dense
that at 8 o'clock yesterday morning
1t was impossible to see fifty yards in
any direction. Sun, moon and stars
have been obscured for several days.
At night the roads are so dark that it
I is dangerous to venture upon them.
Never has it been known to be so dry
in that locality. The highways are
mass of heavy dust, the streams are
drying up and the supply of drinking
water is almost exhausted.
Owing TO the low condition OF the
Hudson river at Spier Falls the Uni
ted Traction company, the Science
tady railway and the Hudson Valley
railway receive no power from the
Hudson River Electric Power COM
pany. The Mechanicville steam plant
of the Delaware and Hudson company
is being run to its full capacity, 5000
horse power. The Mechanicville
steam plant is supplying electric cur
rent to the Hudson Valley railway and
the United Traction company. The
steam plants of the United Traction
company in Albany and Troy have
been running full for some time The
Schenectady railway is receiving its
power at the present time from the
steam generating plant of the Gen
eral Electric company at Schenectady.
DR.. w. j. MCGEE of the geological
survey, who has returned to Washing
ton after a visit to the Adirondacks,
states that a conservative estimate of
the damage being done in that sec
ton by the forest fires is $1,000,O00 a
day.

Democratic Candidate vigOr-
OusIy Defends Treasurer.
STANDARD CHARGE REFUTED
Nebraskan Serves Notice That he
VIII Not Tolerate Misrepresenta-
ton by Responsible Republicans.

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 23.-The most
sensational development in the pres
ent campaign was the sending yester-
day by William J. Bryan, democratic
candidate for president, Of telegram
to President Roosevelt demanding
that he produce proof that Gov. GUS.
N. Haskell of Oklahoma, treasurer of
the democratic national committee,
ever was connected with the Standard
Oil company.
Selling upon the opportunity thus
afforded him, Mr.. Bryan took occas-
ion to serve notice on the president
that he would not permit any respon-
sible member Of the republican Or
ganization to misrepresent the atti-
tude of the democratic party in the
present campaign, and further that
the democratic party was making IAN
honorable and honest fight" in defense
of its principles and policies and that
1t expected and demanded fair and
honorable treatment from those in
charge of the republican campaign.
The message was sent out from Ann
Arbor late in the afternoon. Up to
a late hour tonight he had received
no reply from Mr.. Roosevelt.
Arriving here at $40 o'clock In the
morning, Mr.. Bryan was given rous.
ing reception. The journey to Ann
Arbor was made in his special car.
To gathering Of several thousand
persons, Mr.. Bryan speaking from the
balcony of the Cook house, directed
his remarks particularly TO young
men.
Mr.. Bryan said that In every com
try in the world there will be found
two parties, one essentially democrat
ic and the other aristocratic.
And l want to impress on the
mind of every young man" he said.
that everywhere the democratic par
ty is the growing party and the aris-
tocratic party is the dying party"
Il have commended the president
when believed his actions to be for
good, but / believe that his attempt
to pick out his successor is a danger

in his case you have great confidence
in the presidents judgment, but I
want to remind you that you cannot

Followers OF the "Ponles" Declare
They VIII Make Campaign to Pre-

WILL BE SPECTACULAR FIGHT

New York, Sept. 23.-Interest of a
national character will center in a
nomination for Congress made in
Brooklyn last night. The aspirant for
congressional honors is Otto G.. Foel-
ker the state senator whose spectacu-
lar journey from a sick bed to Albany
cast the decisive vote in the passage
of the anti-betting laws in the state
senate attracted widespread atten-
ton.
Foelker was nominated by the Re-
pubicans of the third New York
congressional district which is strong
ly Republican.
Practically all of New York's race
tracks are in the district and resent
ment against Governor Hughes and
others who were prominent in obtain
ing the legislation which did away
with racetrack betting has been
strong. Racetrack men have said
that they would make fight against
Foelker If he was named and, as It is
almost certain they will keep their
word, a spectacular contest is looked
for. Governor Hughes naturally will
be seen in the fight and will probably
make several speeches in the dis
trict.

KILLED BY SWINGING DERRICK
First Fatality In Construction o
South Vernon Dam.

Brattleboro, Sept. pa. j. Kelley
of East Boston, foreman of crew
employed by the Loring ~ Farnum
company of Boston in building a dam
across the Connecticut river between
Vernon and Hinsdale. five miles
south of here, was instantly killed
yesterday afternoon while about his
work. He stood on trestle built
out over the river for the use of a
temporary railroad, and was giving
signals while a derrick was handl-
ing heavy structure built of logs.
The load swung around and
struck Kelley in the face, knocking
him off the trestle. He fell about
20 feet, striking head first on n
plank walk and breaking his neck.
Kelley was So years old. One OF
his sons is an engineer on the same
lob. A widow and five children live
at East Boston. This is the first
fatal accident that has occurred AT
the dam site since the construction
of the dam was begun more than a
year ago, although about 45O men
are employed there.
