Dear Sir:
In answer to Mr.. Moe and Mr.. I'd
seth. As am really forced to make
an explanation why I could not sup
port Peter Moe for county commissions
er and few of the other republican
candidates for county officers two years
ago. AN Peter Moe SAYS have forced
him and hi, brother to explain and de-
tend their title: but | claim Just the
opposite. aS Swan Moe had been irving
70 tell my friends that | did not sup
port the Republican ticker two years
ago as | have it from good authority
that this is the story he is circulating,
and Peter Moe through his friend, II.
dSeth, as neither of them denie, but
That II originated from Peter Moe
so feel that | had good reason to
bring them into the controversy. |
believe Peter Moe should have come
direct and not through his friend I'd
seth, although if Udscth wants to
vouch for the truth and veracity of
Noes statements and help him grind
out Noes grudge against me, ne has It
good right to do So | believe that the
Peter and Swan Moe controversy is
self explanatory, as they both urged
me to come out as candidate two
years ago, and further Peter Moe went
to the trouble and mentioned my name
through the columns Of one of the OIL
cial papers of the county as a good
choice of a man to fill a county office.
50 fellow citizens draw your own con-
clusion.
| must congratulate Swan Moe on his
great victory in defeating me for the
Office Of town treasurer, another such
defeat would likely mean poverty and
hunger for my wife and babies.
Now Mr.. Udseth is really critizing
my republicaniSm ON the strength Of
Peter Moe, say SO, as he knows moth
ing how | voted, neither does Peter
Moe; Moe is fairly well assured that |
did not support him and Thompson for
county offices and further than that he
is at bay how | voted. Now Udseth

party candidates, even if | had some
fault 10 find with some of them. must
say that ] am not like a candidate for
senator in Minnehaha county, making
