ish and perpetuate his ideals of Amer
icanism.
"In addition to these memorial
meetings, which will be a tribute to
the genius and patriotic service Of
Theodore Roosevelt, there will be
permanent memorials that will convey
to present and future generations the
character and principles Of Theodore
Roosevelt. 1t is for the establishment
of these permanent memorials that
the people of the United States will
be asked during the week of October
20-27 to make contributions to the
Memorial Association.
Every person who gives to this
fund during that week will become a
permanent member of the Roosevelt

$500,000 and a Lie on the Witness Stand
Nicholas Played Game of AnFarmer Organization When He VIC
Oath and Mistated Fact in Jackson Trial

throughout the state that would lift him above
the obscurity of the Office of county attorney at
Jackson.
Nicholas played the game of politics and lied.
He upheld and swore to the lie that Teigen, in
dicted for disloyalty by grand jury in United
States court, had told on the stand. He told the
lie that interests in st. Paul and Minneapolis, who
had used Teigen tool, wanted told He told
the lie that the holders of the $500000 slush fund
wanted told.
The entire prosecution of Mr.. Townley and
Mr.. Gilbert was the work of the holders of the
$5OO,OOO. 1t they who began the 'loy-
atty" propaganda against the League and
made the accusations against its leaders. It
was their game that Nicholas was playing
when he started the prosecutions. 1t was their
game he was playing when he told the lie on
the witness stand.
Let us recast the scene in the court at Jackson
Judge E. c. Dean is on the bench. Mr.. Nicholas
is on the stand, under examination by George Hoke

by J. E. Markham, assistant attorney general, ap-
pointed by the Burnquist gang to assist in the case

Mr. Hoke is asking Mr.. Nicholas whether there
had been any correspondence between himself and
Mr.. Teigen. series of objections and court opin-
ions relieve Mr. Nicholas of the necessity of
answering.
Hoke: II don't suppose you have any objection
saying to what extent, if any, you were active with
Teigen-" =
Nicholas: II never was active with Teigen or
anybody in circulating the book or having any
thing to do with that book
Hoke: "Did you have any correspondence with
Teigen?"

save Nicholas.)
Hoke: II believe you stated you were not active
in assisting Teigen to sell those books or in the
circulation of them?" lst-
Nicholas: "No, have nothing to do with as
sisting Teigen; had nothing to do with help
ing him"
Hoke: "You mean you did not help him to
solicit any subscriptions?"
Nicholas: "NO."
There is the record. Letters which passed be-
tween Mr. Nicholas and Mr.. Teigen appear on these

PLEDGED TO PERFORM
DUTIES WITHOUT DECEIT

just offered by Mr.. Nicholas, let
US also reread his oath of office,
which he took last January. He
pledged himself to perform the
duties of his Office ''impartially
* and without fraud, de-
ceit or oppression"
Has Mr.. Nicholas done that?
Has he not violated the word he
gave, under oath, when he as
sumed the duties of prosecuting
attorney of Jackson county?
Mr.. Nicholas wanted the con-
viction of Mr.. Townley for his
own political aggrandizement.
Mr.. Patterson, representing GER
tain interests, wanted the con-
viction of Mr.. Townley. They
wanted it badly enough to spend
$5O0,000 for the defeat of the
League. They would gladly
have spent another $50O,000 for
the conviction of Mr.. Townley,
if it had been necessary. They
would have been willing to part
with some of it for the cor
roboration Of Mr.. Teigen's tes-
timony by the county attorney.
The correspondence was not
entirely one-sided, it would be
well to be assured. Here are
copies of letters which Teigen
sent to Nicholas:
"April 23rd, 1918.
"Mr. E. H. Nicholas,
jackson, MINI.
"My Dear Mr.. Nicholas: Yours
of March 9th and April 18th,
respectively, at hand, for; which

tatlons, of political trckery and rotten campaign
ing. The lie of this story is not the biggest lie,
but it is one of the most significant that appears
in the story of the $50OOO0.
In Minnesota, county attorneys, upon taking Of
ice, are required to pledge themselves, under an
oath, to perform the duties of their offices "impar-
TALLY and without fraud deceit or op-
preston" The duties of county attorneys are to
enforce the laws-to protect the innocent as we'll
as to punish the guilty. In the law there is no
presumption that difference in political opinion is
violation of the law.
An oath of this kind was taken by E. H. Nicholas,
Jackson county attorney. He had taken it before,
and he took it for the last time in January of this
year. He knew what the oath signifed. He
was presumed to know the duties of his Office.

pages. Glance at those written
by Nicholas. Do they not con-
vict him of the lie?
These letters prove not only
that Nicholas lied on the stand,
but that he was active with
Teigen shortly after the latter
had been indicted for disloyalty
and had been discharged from
the employ of the Nonpartisan
league, and while Teigen was
working for Charles Patterson
and his clique, who were then
engaged in spending their $780,
600 slush fund to defeat the
farmers organization. ">5stz
The nonpartisan leader., 1919-08-11

HIS is the story of $5OO,O0O and
a lie under oath. 1t is part of
a bigger story Of politics, of
plotting and trickery. It is a
story of a violated oath by a
public official and a slush fund
to fight democracy.
The story of the $5OO,OOO is
The nonpartisan leader., 1919-08-11

Yet Mr.. Nicholas lied on the
witness Standard added an
other falsehood to the $500, 900
list.
Mr.. Nicholas, called as a wit
ness for the defense, was asked
whether he had had any corre-
spondence with Teigen, chief
witness for the state, indicted
disloyalist and more recently
accused of fraud and held in
Wisconsin Jail, or whether he
had aided Teigen in disposing of
his book Exposing" the Non
partisan league. Mr.. Nicholas
was saved from the necessity of
having to answer the first ques-
tion when the court sustained an
objection by his associate coun-
sci, but he swore, in answer to
the second, that he had not as
sisted Teigen in disposing of
the book.
Why did Nicholas lie? Was
he ashamed of having associa-
tions with Teigen, the discred-
tied? If so, it was entirely nat
ural. Nicholas had been active
during the war in "loyalty"
stunts. Mr.. Nicholas played to
the galleries throughout the
war, vaunting his "patriotism"
and strutting with the flag. It
would have been hard for Mich
olas to confess in court that he
had helped Teigen to dispose of
his books, or had any sort of
communication with Teigen, who
was then under federal indict-
ment for alleged violation of the
espionage act.
TRUTH WOULD HAVE
HURT PROSECUTION
Or did Nicholas lie on the
witness stand to protect the tes-
timony of his star witness?
.Telgen previously had asserted
that there had been no corre-
spondence between himself and
Nicholas. For Nicholas to have
contradicted his own chief wit
ness would have harmed ma
terially the carefully constructed
frameup against the head of the
Nonpsrtisan league. He would
have impeached the veracity of
the man upon whose testimony,
above that of everybody else, he
was depending upon for con-
viction.
And Nicholas wanted that
conviction. Conviction, Nicholas
believed, meant much to his own
political life. He saw rewards
for himself, much notice in
the papers, not a little fame
