A great deal Of stress is laid on
Clough running behind Mckinley
in the last election, but not word
about McCleary's vote falling be-
hind Mckinley. McCleary fell
behind Mckinley in every county
in this district except one and
there he received an equal num-
Der. It is also worthy of note
that McClarey ran the fartherst
behind in the county he claims as
a home. Another fact worthy of
note is, Frank Day only ran be-
hind in two counties in the dist.
trict. Now if McCleary is such
a great man as some of our friends
would have us believe. Why did
not he keep with Mr.. Mckinley.
Simply because the people were
becoming acquainted with his
selfish motives, working the peo-
pie with all of the wits at his CON-
mand to further his own interests,
and since his election his sci fish
ness has become more apparent.

PENSION swIND1ER TRAPPED.
Clever Schemer is Arrested at Holton
Kansas.

Kansas City, March Especial Pen
sion Examiner G. B. Anderson has just
worked up case which resulted in the
arrest at HOltOn, Kan, of a man who
is thought to be one of the cleverest
pension swindlers in the country.
Among the many names which have
been used by the sWindler are Allen c.
Wright. If he should turn out to be the
desired individual the capture will be a
most important one, as he has long per-
petrated the most bare faced swindles
on the pensioners of the country and
has eluded arrest for years.
1t is said that when he was arrested
the man fought so vigorously that it re-
quired three men to handle him. Special
Examiner H. A. Kingsley of Holton
wired that the Identification was COM
plete.
Aliens favorite method of operation
has been to go to a small town, and
represent that he was a pension exam
iner. Having learned who drew pen
siOns in the town he would hunt up the
various pensioners and represent to each
one that his monthly allowance was
too small. Allen would require an ad-
vance payment of so, for which he
agreed to have the pension increased.
When he had more than cleared his eX-
penses in one town he would move to
the next one He has recently been pur-
suing his plan in Iowa.
Allen is said to be a kindly appearing
old man. His hair is gray and he al
ways wears glasses. Examiner Ander-
son has had the satisfaction of sending
him to the penitentiary once. That was
in Illinois ten years ago.
