To the Editor of the Omaha Guide:

In answer to certain persons who assert that I received compensation from certain candidates during my activities in the recent primaries. I beg to state that I endorsed the candidacy of John Hopkins, Harry Trustin, Harry G. Counsman, Jack Gavenman, and H. H. Harper. My endorsement was based entirely on my personal belief in the ability and integrity of these candidates for the positions they sought. I publicly challenge any persons to produce any evidence of my having accepted one cent from any of the above or any other candidate as consideration for my efforts in their behalf.

Signed:
Rev. N. C. Cannon, D. D.
