You are doubtless aware that for
months detectives from the Burns De-
tective Agency have been trying to I'M
earth some sort of graft in connection
with the farmers elevator movement in
Michigan. You know that the Burns
Detective Agency is world famous for
their cunning methods; that they fur
nished the evidence to convict the Me-
Namaras and other noted criminals.
You know that to secure the service of
this agency REQUIRED THE EXPEN-
DITURE OF THOUSANDS OF DOL.
LARS, Not only the farmers, but all
people in Michigan who believe in a
square deal want to know WHO EN-
PLOYED AND PAID THESE DETEC-
TIVES.
The people have right to this in
formation, that they may judge the mo-
tives of the men who hired this agency
to place its bloodhounds on the tracks of
the men who are aiding the farmers in
freeing themselves from the unsatisfac-
tory market conditions in this state.
My reason for addressing this offer of
reward to you, is that you may not only
help me In securing the infor nation as
to who employed and paid the Burns
Agency, but that YOU MAY FREE
YOUR ORGANIZATION FROM ANY
SUSPICION because of the publication
of the following:
The Detroit News-Tribune of Monday.
May 10, contained this paragraph, in
commenting on the result of the investi-
CATION: "Who put the the Burns men at
work on the case the News Tribune does
not know There is room for suspicion
based on the fact that independent bean
jobbers of Detroit treated the detective
broker with unusual consideration, that
these men know the source of the fund
which started McGraw at work"
And from the further fact that the
Judas" letter which gained for the de-
tectlve an introduction to the Clearing
House management, was written by an
employee of the Ionia Bean Company of
