Evening Republican, Volume 59, Number 114, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 4 June 1917 — Telegram Was Genuine. [ARTICLE]

Telegram Was Genuine.

The editor of The Republican was shown a certified copy of the telegram received by the dry forces of Wheatfield previous to the local option election m that township last week. The telegram DID say that the laws were in force and it was signed by James P. Goodrich. There must have been an error but the good people of Wheatfield were not the ones who made it, as a corrected copy of the telegram handed to the operator at Indianapolis was repeated to the office at Wheatfield and it read as ifidicated above.
