D., were solicited to sontribute to a democratic campaiga ‘und was described to the senate com- mittee investigating campaign -ex- nenditures by Miss Eunice Coyne, reporter of Aberdeen. Miss Jes: Barchard, whose home is in Minne- apolis, also took the standand de- scribed the transaction as a purely “voluntary” offering and agreed with Senator W. 8. Kenyon when he sug- gested it probably was actuated by, their “spontaneous enthusiasm” for the democratic cause. Miss Barchard said the letters re quested the girls to call on Mr. Wa- terbury at a room in an Aberdeen ho- tel and that about a dozen of them went there together. Six of the doz- en, she said, gave $40 each at that time. ‘Miss Barchard said she paid two $20 checks, one postdated Octo- ber 1, Advice Against.

Mee, is internal revenue collector at Aberdeen, Miss Coyne said.
