 NIXON ANSWERED
(Continued from Page 1 )

and Judge Jones were not so loud spoken, and they spoke in tone of voice so that could hear the most of it and catch the meaning of it.They were figuring up by townships, they would talk about sticking little money with this fellow or that fellow and when you go down to certain place, see a certain fellow, he can help you, and we can count him out got to Vaugine township, they all agreed that Jones and I would be pretty we'll divided in the other townships in Jefferson county. Creed was claiming more than any of them, and he said Jones would be fifty ahead, but they all agreed then that I would carry Vaugine township by fifty votes, and according to the rest of them Jones was fifty behind. Ker- win says we have got to do some counting and he says, if you will get a resolution through, allowing me to name the judges and clerks, I will carry the first ward for Jones by 200 votes, and more if you need it. He said, we are up against it in the sec ond ward, we will just call that square. I will be fair to MT. Alex ander, he wasn't there, but somebody presumed to say: "Mr. Alexander will take his ward by hundred or more if you need it, if you will allow him to pick all the men. Now then, what happened. When they got through and went down my race wasn't the only race they figured on either. They figured the whole thing; they figured they would chisel Bogy town ship out of their choice of commit teeman to represent them.

 He makes this statement in an at- tempt to justify his conduct in sign ing an agreement with w. D. Jones to withdraw from the race for prose- cutting attorney and remain out of it, and pledging his sacred word tc it's faithful performance, and his fur ther breach of faith with his friend. s. J. Hunt, by promising him his SUD- port in his candidacy for the office. and then without reason, get back in- to the race.
 1t is true that Mr. Nixon did caves drop conversation by us in a pri- vate office, but the statements that he overheard the above, or anything like it is absolutely and unqualified false. No such conversation occur red. No proposition to do Nixon an injustice, or to take any sort of ad- vantage of him was discussed, con- templated or thought of, and MT. Nix on knew his statements was false when he made it. It was made for the sole purpose of justifying his treacherous and dishonorable act in violating his contract. The entire statement is tissue of falsehoods. Kerwin did not come to the office of Taylor & Jones until the conversation was about half over, and was not
