GOOD AUTHORITY

| IN HE Anti-Saloon league has said
that there is mo foundation in
Il fact" for the charges against Dis
trict Attorney Fredericks. Mr.. Wool
wine has presented the charge that
in the King will forgery case the dis
trict attorney took the matter up as
civil case, profited to the extent of
about $4,000, and failed to prosecute
the forger.
In the opposition to the probate Of
the first King will Mr.. Fredericks, act
ing as a private attorney (when he
should have been giving his time to
the county by which he is paid, made
this statement to the court:
Said alleged codicil, dated the 4th
day of May, 1904, B.. was
wholly forged and fabricated by
said Lucy King, and by some other
person or persons unknown.
And referring to another codiciI to
the same will:
That said alleged codicil, dated
September {, 1904, was
wholly forged and fabricated by.
said Lucy King, and by some other
person or persons unknown.
And further on, referring to the
codicil to the same will of date the
5th day of April. 1906, Mr.. Fredericks
has this to say:
Said codicil was wholly forged
and fabricated by said Lucy King,
and by some other person or per
sons unknown.
Mr.. Fredericks' signature appears to
all of these statements, yet he has as
serted in defense that he did not know
who the forgers were. So there seems
to be some foundation in fact" for one
serious charge. The authority is John
D. Fredericks.

being inexpensive. They think that
