Today O'Mahony wrote another
letter to the Governor setting out
the fact that. although the letter
stated the Governor had given the
matter his personal attention. it was
signed by Schortemeier.
Il knew Mr. Schortemeier for
many years, and any personal assur-
ance Of his in writing would be sat
isfactory TO me under ordinary con
ditions. I am not aware, however,
that he has been elected to anything
by the people or appointed TO any
position by you to authorize him to
assure me that he will enforce the
law in Indiana" wrote O'Mahoney.
II feel sure the Governor of IN
diana never saw this letter. at least
I hope so, because I don't think he
IS the type Of man who would evade
or sidestePSa straight question.

Schortemeier is Republican candt

GOVERNOR'SACTS
QUESTIONED BY
J. P. O'MAHONY
Wonders Why Branch Didn't
Answer PERSONAL
Letter, r.

"Is the executive department of
the State Of Indiana functioning?"
This was the question asked to-
day by Joseph P. O'Mahony. 2619 n.
Alabama and "a Republican for
thirty years"
O'NIahony made public a letter he
had addressed as personal TO Gov
ernor Emmett F. Branch. protesting
as "a citizen, a Spanish War Veter-
an and a Republican" the holding
up Of citizens by masked men on
the country roads Of Indiana and
made detour from their regular
routes by masked sO-called horse
thief detective representatives.
In his letter O'Mahony set out
action Of other Governors in Wiscon-
sin and Washington on the same
subject.
Redeem Indiana
ct am doing this because I have a
high regard for the present Gov
ernor OF this State and believe that
one with his record can be relied up
on to make the proper action to re-
deem Indiana from domination by
the invisible empire" h esaid in his
lettre.
To his personal letter to the Gov
ernor O'Mahony received the fol-
lowing reply:
II have received your letter of
Sept. 5. and I have given it my per
sonal attention.
Whenever specific instances of
law Violations are called to my no.
tice, It will be my duty to place them
before the proper authorities, and
this, I assure you, shall do
Yours very truly.

Milton Mertz
Dies Monday
by Own Hand
YOUNG MAN TAKES OWN LIFE
BY SHOOTING AT CLEMENTS
HOME MON. EVE; WIFE AND
TWO CHILDREN SURVIVE HIM.

Milton Mertz of Clements commit
ted suicide by shooting at his home
about ten o'clock Monday evening.
Following the coroners examination
the body was brought to Redwood
Falls to await the final arrangement
for the burial service. The cause for
Mr.. Mertz thus taking his own life
is not known.
According to the story learned from
friends of Mr.. Mertz he endeavored
several times Monday evening to bor-
row gun from his friends and later
succeeded in getting a twelve guage
shotgun. With this he shot himself
while standing on the back porch of
his home. He was discovered lieing
near the porch. Apparently death
has been instantaneous.
Mr.. Mertz was the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Walter Mertz of Redwood Falls
and had lived for sometime in Gle
ments where he was in charge of the
Standard Oil station. He is survived
by his wife who was Miss Ann Backer
before her marriage, by son and
daughter aged one and two years, by
his parents and a number of brothers
and sisters.

Six Officers
Elected Here
January 9Th
MAYOR, THREE COUNCILMEN,
MUNICIPAL JUDGE AND CITY
RECORDER TO BE CHOSEN;
FILING CLOSES DEC. 22nd.

Tuesday, January 9th is the date
of the annual election of city officers
and the election this year is to be a
real one with all offices to be filled
except that of one Councilman. Aid
erman A. H. Vihstadts term does
not expire but those of all other
members of the Council, including:
mayor, expire this year. In addition
to this there must be elected a mun.-
cipal judge to take the place of c. F.
Martin who is leaving Redwood Falls,
and city recorder.
The members of the Council whose
terms expire are Mayor w. T. Will
cox, Alderman Niels Christensen,
Alderman w. G. Weldon and Alderman
John Colville who was appointed by
the Council to take the place of j.
E. Trent who left Redwood Falls
last spring. The term of C. A. Lau-
terbach the present recorder also ex-
pires.
While it is somewhat early for fill
ings there are rumors of officers who
may be persuaded to shoulder the bur-
den of city management. Busy peo-
pie are reluctant to accept these of
fees which entail much work and the
expenditure of much time with no
compensation, in most cases not even
the gratitude of the public which they
have served. However it is essential
that men of good business ability be
procured to care for the city's well
fare and careful canvas Of possible
candidates will be made. The time
for filing closes December 22nd., the
1923 law stating that filings in such
elections must close fifteen days be-
fore the date Of election.
