PLOT EXPOSED Continued from paga l.i "On looking up the automobile tire matter. 1 find that tho county Jtnlgi of Jnckson county regularly ordered two tires through one of -our trave lers, which we billed to hliu at our cost price on our books, and while tho account has not been paid, It Is a charge, on our books regular, and It Is negligence that It has not been col lected, but it will bo collected the next tlmo our traveler is there, and you can sec our books on it If you want to." Ho added, 'I think ot you know tho typo ot judge In Jackson county, you would not think for one mlnuto that ho would countenance anything but what was clean business, I never met the gentleman, but that Is what 1 hear of his record." This would Indicate that Mr. Ton Velle had received some tires and not paid for them. I'uttcrson's Statement T. J. Patterson, tho reprosontatlvo through whom the tires were re ported to have been ordered was in Medford Tuesday evening. He told Judge Tou Velle. who was in Ignor ance of the charge against him on Ueall's books, that he, Patterson, wai In trouble. Uefore he had a chance to explain, G. Putnam of the Mall Tribune, came in and confronted Patterson and Tou Voile with th-j facts In tho case. Patterson said: "This Is all a mistake. Mr. Ton Velio never ordered any tires from me. or from Heall & Co., and never received any, although I offered to secure him tires at cost, an offer which he declined. Tho entry is a wrong one, and I don't know how, and can't Imagine how, it camo to bo made." Tou Velio's Statement Judge Tou Velle said: "I never ordered, never received any tires from Patterson or Ileall & Co. The statement that tires were sent mo or that I received them, or that I had any relations whatever with Heall & Co, is an unqualified falsehood, and Patterson knows It is." This Patterson admitted. Tou Velio demanded that Patto.- son sign a statement that he prcparod admitting tho chargo a falsehood. Patterson whllo admitting its falsi ty, refused to sign tho statement. Tho only conclusion is that either iieall & Co. liavo been imposed upon by Patterson or that they are delib erately endeavoring to blacken Tou Velio's character as part of their campaign to "get Bowlby's goat." Character Destrojlng The instanco shows a new and In sidious way io attack the reputation of public officials making entries on books of merchandise charged against them, which they know noth ing about and never received tho Infcrenco ot courso being that they know all about it. Such entries could bo mado against anyonca dn only being shown to certain parties Interested, would create a suspicion that would undermine tho reputation of helpless officials. Some tall explanations are duo from Iieall & Co. of their part In this afair and they have been demanded by Judge Tou Velle, What Cures Eczema?
