Heme Eminent Witnesses.
We call the United States Govern-
I rnent to witness. Former President
William H. Taft Is now Chief Justice
j of the Supreme Court of the United
I States. He knows all about Glavls
1 the Spy. whose treacherous attacks
■upon the, late Richard A. Ballinger,
.w h ile She.latter wee Secretary of
Interior, caused President Taft, on
September 13.1309, to take the whole
, matter into his own strong hands.
After a thorough investigation he ex­
onerated Secretary Ballinger In every
respect, while at the same time he
authorized the "firing” of Glavis.
Another witness: Assistant Attor­
ney-General. Oscar Lawler of Los
Angeles, former Grand Master of all
Masons in the State of California, a
man beloved by hosts of good Ameri­
cans as a knightly and splendid citi­
zen, knows all about “ Loole" Glavis.
and will testify that he .is not to be
believed in any circumstances. He
knows “ Loole” thoroughly well.

Not to Be Trusted.
Mr. Lawler, who is a famous law '
yer, 1 .ndled some cases for the fed­
eral government several years ago in
which "Loole" Glavis was the govern­
ment's chief witness and special agent.
After this experience. Mr. Lawler de­
nounced “ Looia^ as “ untruthful and
dishonest." f “ fCongres8ional Record.

kindly and tolerant gentleman who
wouldn’t harm an enemy without
grave cause.
He proclaimed this
warning about “ Loole" Glavi*. how­
ever—"untruthful and dishonest.” not

employed by. Hearst to help Kike Hap­
good weave preposterous deductions
from a few 'unimportant stolen letters
about the Knights of the Ku Klux
Klan.
GU v I h Fired Out of Service.
One week after president Taft “ got
wise" to Glavis and had him "fired”
bodily from the government service,
the fellow had the unblushing impu
dencc to address a letter to the Presi­
dent, telling him he was being de­
ceived and that he. Glavis, had certain
facts and douements which would
prove to him that Secretary Ballinger,
his Chief, and others were crooked—
that they were trying to help the
"Morgan-Guggenhelm Syndicate” se
cure a monopoly upon the coal lands
in Alaska. With a wealth of con­
trary evidence before him, proving
Glavis and his co-workers to be falsi­
fiers, President Taft treated the letter
with deserved contempt an«’ Glavis'
