"Fletcher spoke up and said: told you before we came up here that there was no use talking money to him. I know how to straighten him out. McKeighan has been with me before. He knows how I stand In Lansing and regardless of whether Newberry goes as United States sen stor we will still retain power in the state of Michigan. He - knows well enough that his case is up in the su preme court, and I am in shape so can see whether it Is affirmed or re versed, and that if he wants to get out and work for Newberry we will see that he doesn't go to jail. Hi case will be reversed, and if he doesn' we will watch his district regardless of whether Newberry carries the state of Michigan or not; :t doesn t matter. If you carry this district for us we will take care of you; if you don't you re going to jail. Ho Pro-mine Required.
