TELEGRAM
Tonopah, Nevada, Oct. 26, 16.
Clerk Circuit Court Appeals
Eighth Circuit Southern Dist. of
Iowa, Des Moines, Iowa
Wire day letter Immediately what
disposition was made of case Ballet
VS.. United States No. 1886 after 1t
was remanded back to trial court for
new trial Wish particularly to know
where new trial was had and IL so
with what result. and II not desire
complete details of just how and
for what reasons It was ended. What
was original sentence? Please be
explicit and give minute details.
FRANK T. DUNN,
Chief Deputy Dist. Attorney
Evidently Dunn signed his name in
this manner to obtain information
from the United States Court, for a
county attorney has no business with
4 United States records.
Mr.. Macarthur, believing him to be
United States official, sent him a
wire of about two hundred words.
stating that the case had been APP
pealed and reversed, and fine was not
collected. q have copy Of Mr..
McArthur's telegram in response to
that sent by Frank DUNN This tele-
gram was not sent to Mr.. Dunn, but
to the UNITED STATES ATTOR-
NEY, Tonopah. Now the question is:
WHO impersonated Deputy United
States Attorney to get this telegram
out of the telegraph office? II Mr..
Dunn is not impersonating federal
officer in order to do dirty politics
to help Mr.. Slavin in a dirty, under
handed campaign. it's time the people
wake up to the far reaching methods
of this corrupt machine, and over
whelmingly defeat every machine
candidate on the list and particularly
Mr. Slavin and Mr.. Dunn. II is evil
dent from the fact that all this dirty
work had been done in the interest
OF Mr.. Slavin, brother in law of Ed.
Malley, who Is the "de facto" or real
sheriff of Nye County, that all of
these higher-ups are simply a party
of the corrupt Democratic Machine,
and that in order to cover up Mr..
Slavin's handiwork they have re-
sorted to the method of having the
big guns use their official positions
to do the dirty work for him, believ-
ing that in my campaign | would not
be expecting treachery from persons
whom | believed had no interest In
any Office except their own. This
dirty work undoubtedly emanated
from the Slavin-Malley faction.
told you that l would prove the
existence of corrupt machine that
would stop at nothing to gain their
ends.
Dunn is now telling that he didn't
send that message, but that someone
else sent it and used his name. II
this is so LET HIM START PROSE
CUTION AGAINST THE MAN WHO
FORGED HIS NAME. | want to see
the forger arrested tonight. II Dunn
will swear that the kilograms we're
forgeries, will swear out warrant
for the forger myself. You can Judge
how much confidence should be put
in Frank Dunn's words by his acts,
and the verbiage of the kilograms are
proof that no one but a LAWYER
} wrote them.
Following Is another telegram:

II SWER THIS TELEGRAM
IS Further than all this, after causing
'r the Des Moines papers to publish

le home town, where myself and famil
