regarding a statement which Gov.

speeches to gain their own election:
Governor Warner yesterday flood
cd this portioa Of the state with cam
paign circulars, thrQe OF which prate
Of hia record as reformer and a
fourth Ia u statement wheroin he
classes me with ex.Troasnrer 0lazier,
who, he sayu IL indicted by grand
Jury and will DO trtod with no unnec-
CJsary delay, Ho further says that
tho people OF the state Will be very
slow to put much crodenoe in the
statement Of man who has 80 con

who was v personal friend OF Gen.
u. s. Grant, with his splendid record
as u soldier. citizen and official, show
cd in his public letter to Warner that
tho Issue OF veractty was not between
Glaxier and Warner, but between War
ner and a bank draft for five thousand
dollars, OF which fecsimiles have been
published. and whore Warmers name
on the back Is both proof and confes-
sion that he got the iive thousand dol
lars from the bank ON his note. and
never repaid Glasier the thousands OF
dollars he received from him. which
shows that Giazier told the truth.
THAT draft Is a stone wall that
Warner has not been able to get over
Or unoer or around.
Col. Dean showed from the records
that Warner and Glazler had in collu-
sion speculated with the funds OF tho
state and had them deposited IL
banks where they were unsafe, where
loans were made to Warner and his
political bew-fellow, A. c. Bird. That
Warner puts In Birds note to cover
up his own. is significant OF his finan-
cial crookedness. Ii is clear that
Warner is equally guilty and subjec.
to minimum fine OF over $4,000 for
illegally running his bank at Farming
ton, as has been shown by Hon. Watts
S, Humphrey, who has publicly adj.
dressed the governor. asking him why
he did this, and gets no answer.
He does learn, however, that there
Is an apparent conspiracy involving
the county clerk and prosecuting at
torney Of Oakland county, where. he is
getting more protection" so that the
public records cannot be inspected
and no prosecution is to be entered
that might erect the primary cleo
ton.
Il resent being classed with Glazicr,
who. according To Warmers words,
quoted above, endangered the funds
Of the state and did illegal banking;
though the governar of state had done
both these things
las contributor to the state cam
paign fund in 1906, | also resent the
use OF monies OF that fund in paying
Warner and Kelly for their services

half and In paying for their meals.
lodgings and cigars, when travelling
around with the governors special
train during the last campaign.
Think Of the sources from which
campaign money comes. Under the
warner dfspeHsatieH In l914y when he
was secretary ofestate and candidate
for governor, Is has been published.
he wrung over $l,100 from his en-
ployes, q number paying SIPS, others
s145, others $165 and so on up 10
Chief Manipulation Pierce, now game
warden, who contributed $40. Over
hundred names, think, in this roll
of honor and while looking into the
spitteeHs for campaign funds. Warner
has looked into the vaults OF banks
and into the pockets of big appointees
and good party men of the state for
money, then charged against this fund
for his speeches, for his board, and
don't know about his clothes.
When Warner thanked me the last
time saw him before senatorial
election for my donations to the cam
paign fund. he had a personal cause
10 be grateful, of which was ignorant.
We contributors supposed that we
were helping him. We now find that
we were hiring him to work for him
self.
Coming back to his statement
where he classes me with Glazier, who
has turned states evidence and evil
IDENTIFY told the truth. use the words
} Of Col. Dean: L decline to take over
your cast-off partner and insist that
he remain with you until the books
are closed
But the people can note this fact;
that Glazier did nothing but political
ner and was Warmers dear friend un-
til Glazier failed, since then Warner
has illustrated mans inhumanity to
man.
Hawthorne, our master romancer,
I'm his Scarlet Letter with potent
pen, paints this picture-Hester

Warner. with his own iron. brand

quite another spectacle.
