the matter further, yet there is one
little fact in connection with this
charge that wish to impress upon
the public.
WOOLWINE INVITES ARREST
ST am informed that some nights
ago, while speaking at Glendora, that
attempted to ask him a simple ques-
ton in relation to this matter and
that Fredericks not only refused to
answer the question, but attempted
to arrest the person who asked the
question. Now If he proceeds to at
tempt the arrest of man for a small
interruption of this sort why In the
name of common sense doesn't he
have me arrested for criminal libel in
charging him with one of the gravest
acts of malfeasance that ever disgraced
q public officer in this state?
upon being questioned he gets
around this by saying that have been
guilty of SANDER only. He knows that
I have had these things published in
the newspapers; 1 have made this as
sertion time and time again; and I
am willing to make affidavit to the
fact and place the affidavit in his
hands that l caused the publication,
and if he knows any law at all he
knows that is libel, and criminal libel,
if not true; and 1 have been waiting
ever since my first speech at Simpson
auditorium to be served with war
rant, and if L am guilty of stating an
untruth l am subject to one years i'm
prisonment in jail.
SAYS HE FEARS INQUIRY
Nov, I will tell you why l have not
been arrested. The first reason is that
everything that mas been stated is
true; and the second reason is that he
does not dare have the details of the
looting of the King estate by him
brought out in court. Only the high
places in this piece of villainy have
been touched upon. The details would
furnish more interesting reading. He
falsifies in relation to the circum-
stances of his being questioned at
Glendora by Mr.. Schiffman, to which
1 have just referred. He charges that
Mr.. Schiffman was drunk and was put
out of the hall. [ have it upon ex-
cellent authority that Sehiffman was
neither drunk nor was he put out of
the hall. He was just simply trying to
arrive at the truth of these matters by
propounding few questions to Mr..
Fredericks, which he, Fredericks,
could not answer, and he knew it.
"Mr. Fredericks even had the au-
dacity to question the veracity of
George Alexander, the mayor, who In
letter to the Republican county CEN
trail committee repudiated him in this
language:
Under no circumstances, how
ever, will 1 appear on the platform
with Capt. John d. Fredericks, and
1 wish it distinctly and publicly
understood that in no way must
my action in speaking for the Re-
publican ticket be construed to be
an Endorsement of Capt. Fredericks.
Mr.. Alexander goes on further to
say as follows: Laying aside the
charges made by Mr.. Woolwine, which
to my mind have not been disproved,
1 cannot support Mr.. Fredericks,' and
then Mr. Alexander gives his reasons,
which for lack of time I will not read.
REVIEWS HIS ACCUSATIONS
"As stated, Mr.. Fredericks attempts
to make the public believe that Mr..
Alexander is controlled and that GER
tain statements of his are not true.
Mr. Alexander replies in letter to
Fredericks, OF date October II last,
further repudiating Fredericks and
branding him as a falsifier.
"Mr. Fredericks is further making
