was ignored; that having the work done
OH that occasion satisfactorily, with
out kick it was perfectly natural on his
second trip that he should try tine same
route again. The Claim is set up tha'
the Dispatch man being instrumental in
getting Mr. Dennison here, therefore the
Dispatch was entitled to prefer ence-
meaning in this case the "whole hog =
in The printing; that he was not under
the slightest obligation to the Ledger. y
Here then is the dead giveaway of the
whole thing Out of this own mouth
the main facts are admitted, and we
might upon this showing leave the
matter to the judgment of the people.
The Dispatch makes the fatal mistake
that the patronage in this affair was Mr.
Dennison's exclusive property, the same
as though the money came from his
own pocket. Such was not the case.
Mr. Dennison and his conferes and assis-
tants we're merely the agents of the pat
rons of the show in the distribution of
patronage and they had no right in fact
or justice to regard it otherwise than a
public trust to be used fairly and impair
TALLY.
Our cotemporary says that the alleged
interview between the Ledger man and
Dennison as given in this paper, is AN
astounding perversion of facts. " And
he makes this statement on his own ac
count. We beg to say that he is not
competent to pass on the question; he
was not present at either interview; and
his impudent bald denial is on a par
with his surplus of gall and deficit in
common sense. Both interviews were
had in the hearing of witnesses, and the
substance as given in the Ledger can be
substantiated. Furthermore, Dennison.
after being enlightened to the true
situation SAID he went back to willie
dear'' and gave him section of hades
for having led him into such predica-
ment.
Referring to the eleventh hour print
ing of reserved seat tickets by the Led
ger to square things as far as possible,
the Dispatch says:
"The order was turned over to the
Ledger. not by Mr. Dennison, but by w.
M. Penry, IT., editor OF the Dispatch,
10 whom the order for the tickets had
been given by Dennison the day pre-
vious. Sounds strange. doesn't it?
But it's none the less the fact. The
Dispatch man gave the order to Webb's
hreling, W. Scott Thomas, on the
afternoon of May 27. Thomas pro-
missed to deliver the tickets by 9
O'Clock the next day to be used in the
box Office plat. 1t may be remarked in
passing that the tickets were not forth
coming when the seats were to be
placed on sale at the appointed hour. -
Here is a wilful Misrepresentation.
Dennison was sick-evidently from
nervous prostration over theIdlemma of
this racket-and while prostrated asked
Penry in the presence of Thomas to go
to his suit case and get the copy for
tickets, which he did and handed same
to the representative OF the Ledger.
The Ledger had no dealings with Penny,
knowing full we'll that he was scheming
to monopolize the church benefit print
ing. This order was given late in the
evening, after working hours, and it
did not reach the job Office OF the
Ledger until after O'Clock the follow
ing morning. The tickets we're de-
livered within one hour after the know
ledge reached this Office. The insinua-
tion that the Ledger is not prompt in
the fulfillment OF contracts is contenot-
ible. Penny did not give the work, We
would not have accepted IT from him on
such plea, and furthermore he did not
pay for it, He had neither part nor lot
in the Transaction, as far as we are coa-
