When all hope of rescuing the
miners had gone and when it became
plainly apparent that all were dead

Since the following article was put
in type, we succeeded in getting in
telephone communication at Postville
with Mr.. Anders and he authorizes us
to say that both statements referre
to in the article are .FALSEHOODS,
made out of whole cloth. Mr.. Anders
says that he has never associated or
sympathized with any prohibitory
movement, that he was born and reared
German, and in common with those
of his nationality, he entertains their
views on questions of personal privilege,
although not drinking man himself.
AS to his republicanism, he says his
firstvote was as democrat and also his
last and that he never affiliated with
the republican party at any time, nev.
er was in sympathy with republican
principles, and never had any connect
ion with the republican party.
