trial of two libel suits in whieh Calvin
Ankeny and Clinton ~Wagner, respec- |

Kendall, proprietor of the Meyersdale
Republican, the defendant.
The cases grew out of a severe roast-
ing that the Republican gave the plain-
tiffs in the year 1905. In that year
Ankeny and Wagner were candidates
for nomination to office at the Repub-
lican county primary, and when they
announced their candidacy, they signed
a statement in the hands of the Re-
publican county chairman, declaring
that if defeated for nomination at the
Yepublican primary, they would abide
by the result of said primary and sup-
port their successful rivals.
After the Republican primary had
been held, the vote showed that both
Ankeny and Wagner had been defeat-
ed.” However of standing by |
their signed pledge, they went back on
their word, and at the general election
in the fall they both candidates
on a fusion ticket for the
they sought at the Republican primary.
Then it was that the Meyersdale Re-
publican gave them a severe and much
deserved but through

tion, the Republican declared that
