Editor Alliance Herald:
Those in charge of the advertising de
partment for the anti-saloon league with
out any cause or provocation having, for
the furtherance of their political schemes,
seen fit to publish a slanderous article at
tacking us while in the discharge of official
duties, we are asking that you publish this
article in answer thereto.
The main article of which complaint is
made is the reference to the trial of Queen
Snow on the charge of selling liquor. In
addition to the regular panel of jurymen,
the sheriff was charged with summoning
others, which he did with all due and
proper regard to their standing as good
citizens. When the case was called there
were twenty-six qualified citizens present
from which to select a jury. Each one
selected was closely examined and ques
tioned by the county attorney, Mr. Burton,
and also by the attorney tor the detense,
Mr, Mitchell, and when the panel was
completed, they were properly sworn by
presiding Judge Harrington. The names
of those sworn are John Gcrdes, Joseph
Dentnn, A. Baumgardncr, C. J. Benjamin,
W. G. Zediker, E. R. Becker. O. II Hall,
John Dougherty, C. W. Hall, L. A. Su
prise, S. W, Holt and A. Cusick. Among
this list three are radical prohibitionists.
The evidence was submitted and after
usual formalities, the case was turned over
to the jury for a verdict. Within a few
minutes after entering into the jury room
the three prohibitionists were among the
first to declare there was no evidence upon
which to base a conviction. The verdict
was unanimous and the jury in due time
rendered their verdict of ''not cuilty."
Now comes the writer of the article
against which this complaint is made and
charges that the jury being composed of
rounders and two men under the in
fluence of liquor, no other verdict could be
expected. Why did the article not criti
cise the county attorney for having failed
to challenge any man observed to be under
the influence of liquor or those known to
bo "rounders?" Simply because it is
known there were no such characters on
that jury. The person who wrote that
article knew full Well when writing it that
every line was false. There is no way for
getting at the -individual who wrote it for
the reason that of all the crowd posing as
a "God and Morality aggregation" not one
will take the personal responsibility for
writing such slanderous and defamatory
articles, but hide behind the name of
"Anti-Saloon League." Upon inquiry as
to the individual who wrote it, each one
attempts to saddle it oil on to some other.
We are being told by this crowd that they
seek to purify the moral atmosphere of Al
liance and create a higher regard and re
spect for law and order, and yet they are
the very ones to set the example for disre
spect for law and the courts by being the
first to slander the presiding judge, the
court officew, and the jury, simply because
of an inability to convict without proper
evidence under the law. Such actions
more properly brand them as"respectable"
rounders than it does reformers of morali
ty. The real truth is. the slanderous article
was written more for furthering political
schemes by disreputable methods rather
than from any motive of morality. It is
the boast of this outfit that they purpose
to control the entire politics of Alliance
and Box Butte county and this movement
is toward that end, first by seeking to dis
credit those now in office and then kicking
up a cloud of dust about the great moral
wave of "reform." The only kind of re
form these men want is to turn out all
others excepting their own pliant tools.

time you're around onr way and see what you like. Talk it
over at least try on plenty of coats don't put it off until every
body else comes rushing in and its a case of jumping here and
jumping there with each clerk waiting on at least three men and
each man fretting to get away. It isn't fair to us and it isn't
fair to Erderheimer-Stein Clothes.

They are governed by no sense of morality
but rather by a spirit of ambition to run
the whole county. When it is known that
many of those using this anti-Saloon racket
as a means to further their own political
and financial ends are no slouches on
whisky drinking themselves, the hypocrisy
and farce of their rantings are somewhat
disgusting and the wonder is that such
men have any following at all among peo
ple honestly disposed. We believe in
fair play at all times and we protest that
such slanderous articles as complained of
are not only unfair but positively indecent
and disreputable and should be condemned
by all honorable citizens as strongly as it
is condemned by those composing the slan
dered jury and writers hereof.
