on Tom Flynn's
Printed Story

Samuel Mancusco comes back at Tom
F1ynns exception to the unanimous ac-
tion OF the Central Improvement club as
follows:
Tom Flynn does not give the people
the facts. He deliberately lies when he
says l asked him to give my father a
job sweeping the streets. For the last
six years, during which time Mr. Flynn
has been the street commissioner, l have
had nothing to do with him or his de-
partment. My father is in pretty fair
circumstances. and although advanced In
years is quite capable of taxing care Of
himself, and il he were not 1 am abun-
dantly able and willing TO care for him.
WIN pay $500 toward Mr.. Flynn's cam
paign expenses II he can satisfy any fair
minded man from any evidence in his
possession that ever asked him to give
employment to my father
"rhe facts are just as stated in the
resolution of the Central Improvement
club. l did not introduce the motion. 1t
was made by man from the floor. The
motion was unanimously carried. MIR.
Flynn's ears must have burned during
the meeting. for il ever any man was Sc
verely criticized in public Mr.. Flynn was
not by one alone, but by everybody who
had property on Twenty-first street, and
who had TO contribute TO the expense OF
removing the earth placed upon the street
by MI Flynn.
Mr.. Flynn says he has been thirty
six years in Omaha. ! have been in
Omaha about twenty-five years, and in
that time have earned my own way and
have never held a public office. In fact,

taxes than Mr.. Flynn has earned during
his entire thirty-siX years residence In
