Sherman denies corruption links to New Mexico timber venture
Republican vice presidential candidate Sherman rejects World accusations about the New Mexico Lumber and Development Company. He explains the project was a private, abandoned venture, funds returned, no U.S. land or property involved, and he and associates had no secret agenda or bribery ties. He notes a contemporaneous letter from Burke and asserts no payment or pledge prevented disclosure.

He says the October 2 1908 meeting drew farmers from multiple counties, filled the opera house, and showcased Governor hopeful W S Glasscock with Reed and others. He claims a few Democrats incited disruption and that their tactics swayed fifteen to twenty Democratic votes away from the party.
