as am concerned, that newspaper
may continue to build up their young
governor, but if the paper chooses to
publish anything about me, or any
of my statements, expect the court
esq of being correctly quoted. If not
given the opportunity of correcting
erroneous articles, am going to know
the reason why.
AS before intimated, 1 have ap-

to know that all of the listeners do

PETERSEN'S STATEMENT.
County commissioners
have called today and asked
me to make a public state
ment in fairness to them.
For that reason l wish to
make it definitely clear that
some of the daily press have
so exaggerated the incident
that an injustice has been
done to the commissioners.
The bOoing which did occur
was slight; it took place dur
ing my remarks on the
Homestead lien law, and but
once. Such incidents are not
new to me. In 1888 noise
making hirelings appeared at
a Brainerd meeting, and now
it is apparently another pat
rOnage gang. The commits
siOners gave me a good re-
ceptiOn, with generous ap-
plause, and l feel that they
have been misrepresented
through making mountain
out of a mOle-hill."
