to mention only one of the charg- es, as a little investigation will prove all the others equally false. The Guard charges Oldfeld with being drunk on the streets of Newport and that Tom Simpson of Batesville and Walter Fife of Newport had to take MT. Oldfeld in Mir Flies store to prevent the officers from arresting him.
 The editor of The Journal called MT. Fife over the telephone yes terday Sunday morning, and MT. Fife stated that the whole story was false, and said that Mir. Old field had not been in his store in a year and a half. Mir. Fife stated further that he had never voted for MT. Oldfeld in his life, but that he did not believe in such campaign tactics as were being used against Oldfeld, and gave The Journal permission to publish the following statement:

He is simply mad with me because he cannot control me, and he IS tell ing every untruth that he can think of, or imagine, in his paper There is absolutely no telling what he will say and what misrepresen- tations he will print in his paper this week when he knows 1 will have no opportunity to answer him. He says in the Guard that 1 have made some statement in the presence of Clint Davidson, at some time or some where, which is absolutely untrue, and the edit or of the Guard knows 1t is untrue
 I make this statement hoping that the people will not be misled by the many falsehoods regarding nie which have appeared and may appear in the Guard between now and the 18th of this month.

ISSUES STATEMENT
 TO THE PEOPLE,
Oldfield Cautions Voters to Look Out for Dirty Y. Stories That May be Started Against
 Him on Eve of the Election

Editor Newark Journal:-I notice that the Batesville Guard Is mis. representing me and my record in Congress in every way possible, and 1 shall appreciate your kind- ness if you will publish this short letter in The Journal, so that your readers may understand the facts.
 The editor of the Guard, Mir. Trevathan, is very mad with me, because he could not force me to break my word with regard to the postmastership at Batesville, and recommend Mr. Trevathan for the postmastership. 1 refused, at his command,to break my prom ise to MT. Sam Deener and his friends, and don't believe there is a man in Independence county, or elsewhere, who would want me to break my word about the post mastership at Batesville, or any thing else.
 The Guard criticises me because I voted for and spoke for the Alaskan Railway Appropriation bill. This is one of the greatest pieces of constructive legislation passed since the Democratic party went into power a little more than year ago, and it was strongly supported by tie. President. Sec retary of State Bryan, Speaker Champ Clark, Leader of the House Oscar Underwood, and all of the members of the present cabinet, as we'll as three-fourths of the Democrats in both houses of Con- gress.

OLDFIELD SAYS
 TREVATHAN LIED

When Congressman Oldfeld was shown the article containing Trevathan's attact upon him he denied the charges in toto, and gave out the following signed statement:
 My friend, MT. Sam w. Deen- CT, has just shown me copy of the dirty and scurrilous article published in the Batesville Guard of March 21.
 The statements contained therein are so RIDICULOUS AND so UNWARRANTED that I will say that every word of it. except the fact that I supported the Alaskan railway bill, IS AN INFAMOUS LIE; and 1 know that HE KNOWS THEY ARE LIES.

 METHODS OF CAMPAIGN LIAR

The opponents of Congressman W. A.. Oldfield have become so desperate in their efforts to defeat him that they have pub- reports against him just On the eve of the election. when they think it is too late for him or his friends to make reply in his defense.
 These tactics do not surprise anyone acquainted with inc character of the men who are fighting him in this race. and in fact, it was expected. as is shown by the following signed statement from Mr. Old field. published in the regular issue of The Journal of Friday, March 20:

ALASKAN RAILWAY
 BILL IS NOW LAW
President Wilson Says He Is "Ex- tending the Hand of Real
 Helpfulness."

Washington, March 12.-Presi- dent Wilson today extended what he termed "the hand of real help fulness and brotherhood to Alas ka," when he signed the bill auth. orizing the expenditure of $35,000,. GOO for the first government-own- ed railroad constructed by the United States.
 Secretary Lane, a group of sen. ato1s and representatives and members of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce stood beside the president as he signed the act.
 The president was in happy mood, and in laying one souvenir pen aside to use another, smiling ly remarked:
 'Tll change engines"
 When the bill had been signed, the president made brief speech.
 Secretary Lane afterward had a long talk with the president about the selection of engineers. It is unlikely that Colonel Goethals will be through with the Panama Ca nal in time for the present under taking, which MT. Lane intends 10 get into operation at once.
 The secretary said the enact ment of the railroad bill will be followed by the passage of the ,, Alaska laska !eas;ng .,hil! ..9hlsish Wonld mean the carrying out of the ad- ministration plan for the depart ment of. Alaska in an incredibly short time. He added that an at tempt would be made to gather the working force this year.
