il an apparent effort TO attract sup
port away from the Independent state
ticket by the publication of letter
which he wrote to two Devils Lake
men regarding the campaign pros

The letter with mass OF mislead-
ing comment was published in the
Wednesday morning issue Of the Far
so Courier News. 1t also appeared in
the Bismarck Tribune. =

sually clumsy attempt at deception by
declaring in its editorial column that
the letter was written on April %.

the Nestos ticket.

article are apparently prompted by a

should pass it up without notice, as
have done with so many articles
that have been written and PUBLISH ed
