By the time Lyman returned to the

Vic

Flaying Tammany Hall for attempting to play a "con”

secretary of agriculture under President Wilson, declares that
intelligent farmers throughout the country have received no

Mr. Vrooman said "I am confident the

He charged Tammany with being
Democratic in name only and said
that “It Is essentially mercenary and
parasitic. It double-crossed Wilson.

"One of Tammany's first acts was

that she killed a cougar six feet eight

Although details of the incident are
meagre it is understood that the lion
approached Mrs. Kilpatrick while she

Mrs. Kilpatrick ended the animals life

received $35 bounty for the pelt.
