WILL THEY UNDERSTAND THIS To the Eoitor or Thb A nous In answer to the charges made against me personally in the article ap pealing in the Independent of last week's issue, and entitled "A Pop ulist Supports Mr. Edson," I wish briefly to correct some of the wilful and maliciously false statements contained therein. Before doing so, however, I wish to advert that the author of the article (whoever that might be) must have known, and does now know that the charges affecting my record during the last session of the legislature, are false and that in making such charges, and without signing his name to the article, declares him self to the world to be an abject coward. I invite this man to dis close his name. He is not a "unionist." In the first place, he accuses me of voting for the scalp bounty law. Ibis is a wilful falsehood, as shown by the house record. Secondly, inferentially I am ac cused of taking (2500 from Corbett not to support Mitchell, which I also declare a malicious falsehood. Third: I am accused of having declared myself in favor of the election of John II. Mitchell for the United States Senate, and that I would support him for such office. This also I denounce as being un true. I did not declare myself di rectly 'or indirectly, orally or ex pressly, that I would support John H. Mitchell or any other republi can for the United States Senate. In the article referred to there is a great deal more of like nature which I do not care to go into at this time; bat if the author of the article will assert his manhood and meet me openly as an American citizen, I will prove to him that he is either an ignoramus or a falsifier.

In answer to the statement appear ing in the Hillsboro Independent of the issue dated May 16, 1902, can truthfully say, on behalf of the Hillsboro Band, that it is exceed ingly sorry to have been brought into any political controversy, for this band has always prided itself as being strictly non-partisan, and no member of our band is in any way responsible for the article so appearing in the Independent, and the band states the facts to be as follows: The sheriff and I had ar ranged on the previous day, that in as much as he had business in town on the day in question which re quired his presence, he would make a trip with ballot boxes that day and I could make one the following day, thus relieving him on the day his presence was required in town, forgetting for the time being the engagement of the band: on the ar rival of Mr. Sewell in the clLce on the morning, I mentioned my en gagement with the band, and sug gested thai I thought the band would be willing to furnish a sub stitute, Mr. Sewell replied that "if it could not be arranged satisfac tory, he would make the trip him self." I mentioned the trip to sev eral of the band boys, who imme diately signified their satisfaction to the plan of hiring a substitute. which the band did, and did jo without the remotest idea of having done anything but that which was just between Mr. Sewell and the band. w. J. Wall, Leader of the Hillsboro Reed & Cornet Band. Publisher's note. Last week's Argus, in reference to the kiddish yarn relative to the band, said "This was agreed upon. The change cost Sheriff Sewell money out of his own pocket." - It is said that a drowning man catches at straws so, it is rumored, the organ and its editors are taking this state ment to hold that The Argus meant that Sewell paid for the substitute to deliver the ballots. Not at all. The band rightfully paid for the man, but sewell paid for the hotel bill, etc , and the feed of team, when, had he or his deputy gone, stop would have been made with any one of dozens of friends who had invited them to remain with them. This is a small affair and has no place in a public discussion, but the exigency of the occasion demands that it be published as it was. GEO. R.

I hereby characterize the affidavit of the said Bigham as fatso, and shall take steps to prose cute him before the law for malic ious libel. Voters of Washington county will pay no attention to such false hoods coming at this late an hour from irresponsible people.
