Ovando, Mont, May End, 1912
Fred Mix, Esq, Editor Fairplay,
Ft. Pierre, S. D.
Dear Sir 1T is with reluct-
ance (not at present being resi-
dent of Stanley county, that I
feel forced by the frequent al
lusions to "Scotty Brown in
recent issues Of the Fairplay, to
ask you for space to state a few
facts and to ask a few questions
in connection with the present
and also with past political cam
paigns in Stanley county, with
which l had the honor and the
pleasure to be connected. Had
the Fairplay confined itself to
boosting DR.. Lavery, this letter
would not have been written. Doc
has his points, but why should
it be necessary in order to get
him into the Legislature to fill the
pages of the Fairplay with bill
ingsgate week after week against
Rainey, Leedom, Quigg, Norby
and othersi
Rainey has his faults but he
also has his points.
Leedom and Granger of Kadok
are the two greatest hustlers on
behalf Of Stanley county that
ever lived within it's borders.
Has Stanley county or any other
county in the state cleaner, NOR
upright young man than Albert
Norby? Is there a more compel
ent, a more obliging, accomodat-
ing candidate before the pri-
marics than Jim Quigg Of Philip?
There never was a poor home
steadcr who asked his help (and
their number is legion) who
does not swear by him?
Again l ask, why is it neces-
sary, in order to nominate DIR.
Lavery, that men like these shoul
be villified week after week
The Fairplay well knows that
Millett was one of the hardest
workers in the last legislature.
If you are not aware Of this,
why not ask Mr.. Trumbo? In
discussing Millett's record, why
not make mention Of the $4,000
obtained for the Cottonwood ex-
perimental stltiOn, as compared
with the paltry sums obtained in
the prior session Of the legisla-
ture? Didn't this "mean any
thing to Stanley county," or is
the publication of tax lists and
the county printing the only two
items that "mean anything to
Stanley county?'
If Scotty Brown, and Scotty
Brown alone, was responsible fo1
DR.. Lavery's defeat two years
ago, why mention the fact since
Scotty has left the state and Do'
should naturally have a walk
over.
Why make the statement tina
"since that time Scotty ha
learned the truth about 1908,
when you know Scotty was vel
aware Of the truth all the time

possible to become a candidate 70
the state senate in 1908, "double.
crossed" him and contributed all
in his power to his defeat? Doc
himself admits this and that he
chad it a-coming' two years
ago. You yourself asserted in
your issue after the last primary
that accounts had now been squar
ed between DR.. Lavery and my
self. T., :
But to return, why write so
fluently Of double crossing, y
and why so glibly apply the ap-
pellation, Benedict Arnold" to
anyone, when l refresh your mem
ory by recalling the letter you
sent me two days before election
"to pass the word among my
friends" to knife Geo. D. Mathie-
son for county commissioner,
which needless to say was not
done by me, as any fight l have
ever had was joyously welcom-
ed in the open? Why is the Fair,
play against double crossing in
view of the above factsg Is
there no honor among double
crossers? Verify, my estimation of
thieves has gone up notch.
LeedOm S detection to Lavery s
cause, two years ago, was solely
due to the fact that DR.. I1avery
knitted" me in 1908, a fact
Leedom was not aware Of until I
told him on the FRIDAY BE-
FORE the last June primary.
Why should the Fairplay and
Lavery oppose Leedom so bitter
ly, when less than two weeks ago
DR.. Lavery assured me in his
own office in Ft. Pierre that he
was for Leedom?"
Why not discuss the compet-
ency and ability Of the various
candidates.
Is it not fact that you are
supporting Morrison, "of the
North Country" Bielski "of the
Middle West" Trumbo "of the
Southwest and Stuart of Ka-
doka, simply because Of their
geographical locations, and the
desire to trade for support for
DR.. Lavery in their localities? /
know Mr.. Morrison and Mr..
Bielski and you could well af-
ford to support them on their in
tegrity alone. Oscar Stuart is tn,
man for whom the letters 80. K.
were coined.
l never met Mr.. Trumbo, but
what s the matter with Grang.
err" Those who know him will
answer.
In closing, again express my
reluctance in having to address
this to you, but it is entirely for.
eign to my nature to stand idly by
and see men traduced who stood
shoulder to shoulder with me in
earnest efforts to place Stanley
county in the forefront. In re.
viewing my long connection with
Stanley county, connection
which will never be entirely seve
ed, l feel proud Of my friends an
proud alse Of my enemies.
Very respectfully,
| SCOTTY BROWN.

LAvERY AND PETTIGREW

DR.. Lavery is proud of the fact
that Hon. r. +. Pettigrew and
his entire family have been warm
friends for nearly twenty-five
years, and that nothing has hap
pened on either side to mar that
friendship. He says further that
there is not room in Rainey's fl
nal proof sheet and Millett's To-
cal newspaper combined to print
all the letters which have passed
between Mr.. Pettigrew and him
self, and that he expects to
continue his correspondence with
the ex-senator as long as they
both live. What next7-Fairplay.
The above is the answer Tallow
belly gives us to our interrogation
of two weeks ago, "While you
are at it, Doe, why not stick in
a copy of the letter you wrote to
Ex-senator Pettigrew, wherein
you expressed yourself as
nightly pleased to see him a
candidate for the United States
senate?"
Dear reader, the issues Of the
campaign are getting down to
bedrock" mighty fast. The
Review has for several weeks
past been telling the public why
it opposes the nomination Of DR.
! Lavery. We have not said n
thing that we would retract, for
we know him to be a politician of
che rankest type, and one in
whom his best friends cannot
place confidence. We know that
he would if sent to the legislature
from this district, betray the re-
publican party, and ignore the
choice Of the party as expressed
for United States senator.
DR.. Lavery in 1896 was bitten
by the free silver bug and fol-
lowed r. +. Pettigrew out Of the
republican party. He has, as adj
mitted by the Fairplay been in
close touch with the ex-senator
at all times. In 1904 Doc "saw a
light" and drifted back into the
republican ranks, but has, even
to this writer, expressed the hope
that some day Pettigrew would
again be sent to Washington as
senator.
In March Of this year a meet
ing Of the democrats Of the state
was held in Pierre, at which Pet
tigrew was urged to become a
candidate for the senate. He has
done so, and the campaign for
his election is already on. The
democrats Of the state expect
that number of members of the
Legislature will bolt the party in
structiOns, and vote for Pettigrew
Dr. Lavery is one Of whom they
are sure, since following the
Pierre meeting he wrote his
Sioux Falls friend, urging him
to become candidate, and
pledging his support.
We have stated before that
Doc is throwing boquets at the
Gamble candidacy, he is one Of
the leading men in the organiza-
tion which has for it's purpose the
nomination of r. o. Richards as
senator, but down in his heart,
concealed from those with whom
nc wishes to play, he is for Ex-
Senator Pettigrew, first, last and
all the time.
II the voters of the county
want to send a democrat to the
state senate, we'll and good. But
send one who is not afraid to fly
his col0rs, instead Of the deceitful
double-crOssing Doc.

FOR MURDER CONFESSION
Officials Don't Believe Self
Accused Man Killed Woman
Victim of Drug and Whiskey.

Trenton, y. j.. Dec. 29.-Although
they have a confession from William
Atzenholfer that he is the murderer of
Luella g. Marshall. the Mercer County
authorities are not sure they have the
right man. Atzenholfer. who Is q Ger
man, twenty-eight years old and for

charged with the murder.
Prosecutor Crossley has a confession
that on the night OF Tuesday. December
3. ne killed Miss Marshall with an iron
pipe. Despite this, the Prosecutor is
continuing his Investigation, apparently
believing that some grave mistake has
been made.
Atzenholfer's story and his actions
lead to the belief that lie is the victim
OF auto-suggestion or halIucinations.
The Prosecutor and his aids are inves-
tigatlng along these lines. The mans
whereabouts before and after the crime
are being traced and within few days
an application may be made TO the
court for an examination into his SAN
ity.
Atzenholfer has lived In Trenton only
a few months, coming from Richmond,
Va. His reputation in the South was
that of a sober, Industrious and mild
hammered man. or late. however, 1t IL
said that he has been addicted to drink
and also that he Is a morphine victim.

RUNS PAST R. R. SIGNALS
Knox, Already Notorious in
England, Heard Of Again.

London, Dec. 30-Knox. the locomo-
tive engineer, whose reduction in grade
was responsible for the recent strike
on the North Eastern Railway, is
again in trouble with his superlors. 1t
appears that on Christmas Eve, while
In charge of his old engine, he ran past
signals which were set against him.
The incident being duly reported at
headquarters, Knox was subsequently
informed that he would be suspended
from duty for one month.
The offence with which Knox is now
charged is not an uncommon one, but
II is usually punished with great Sc
verify by the companies. The fact of
Knox's suspension was kept pro-
found secret as long as possible, and
very few of his comrades We're aware
of ii. However, it Is not likely that
there will be any attempt on the part
OF the men, by strike or otherwise, to
interfere in the present case.

The long expected strike OF the Unit

in the greater New York and Newark
districts was authorized last night at a
meeting of the executive committee of
The local district council at No. 155
10000 men would go on strike this
morning, but it is probable that 100, 900
or less will be nearer the actual num-
Der of idle hands. OF these, some f9, 900
or $4,000 az union men, the others
joining out of sympathy.
About four thousand shops and fac
tories will be affected By the strike
The principal demands Of the men are
an advance in wages Of 20 per cent,
abolition of the inside contract or sub
contractor system and the abolition of
footpower and gas pressing engines.
The abolition OF tenement house work,
the leaders say. is not the least of their
demands. While no work can be done
by contractors In houses where there
are living rooms, there is nothing to
prevent workers from taking their work
10 their homes in the tenement houses.
Large crowds of union men gathered
in Clinton street while the local council
was debating on the strike question.
When the final decision in favor of a
strike was made known, there was the
widest rejoicing and hundreds started

Twenty-Five per cent OF the hres III
this city last year were incendiary fires.
The same was true Of the year before.
Twenty-Five per cent of the fires this
year were fires that could have peen

Il cost the lives Of large number or
innocent people. The subject of in
