j. Inlggen:
Dear Sir: 1t gives me great pleasure
to see that there are others interested
in world problems besides myself. In
your letter of no date in the Wisconsin
Tobacco Reporter / find you think the
committee which [ selected could be
improved on. One of the improvements
you suggest is that Isaac Abrahamson
would have to be hitched up with Carl
Schmidt in order to do efficient work.
| knew this at the time-that these
two put together would make fairly
good representation of one; but | was
also looking at the economic side OF the
question. AS youss know the high cost
of living has not got down to normal
yet, and with the enormous appetltes
that these two men have it would have
been too expensive to send both. |
have it from reliable source that it
would cost more to feed these two than
Ringliug Bros. menagerie, and espec-
tally at this time when they are feed
ing at the public expense, as they would
be in this case; so | selected the one
with the smaller appetite without con-
sidering his other qualifications. You
say If these two are put together as a
team they are world beaters, they fear
no one and challenge the world In any
debate. Now you know that person
who can take any side on question
and win out hasn't streak of honesty
and no respect for the truth, and do
not think either one of these two gen
tlemen are possessed Of these qualities.
And you say they could throw IN Lloyd
George. / beg to differ with you in
this for in their newspaper fight here
short time ago they fell down for
George Benson they run up against
the wrong George.
| note what you say about c. 0. Tel
lefson and T. D. Larson. They evil
IDENTIFY bear evidence of being great
hair pullers, but do not think 0. ?.
Nelson would be good pacifier be-
tween these two as you say they are a
little erratic and not headed, the hair
pull would be over before Nelson got
mad No; / would prefer John Venaas.
You are supposing that Abrahamson
and Schmidt should have have fall
out on the Shantung or the far East
ern question. You are supposing some
thing that would never happen. The
only thing they fall out about is the
spoils.
Now, Mr.. Inleggen, although you are
a total stranger to me, | wish to thank
you for the interest you have taken in
this matter You did not give me your
address, but hope that after this let
ter has rolled around on the gravel
knobs on the east side of the county
line that it may roll into your mail box.
| ask you in all earnestness
R. U. Krasey?
