PATTEN FOUND OUT.
Looked Over Kelly Records and
Tells His Discoveries.

1t seems to be practically the univer-
sal verdict OF persons who go to Paoia
and make careful investigation of the
records concerned in the charges
against Thomas T. Kelly, that Mr.. Kelly
is guilty Of the findings against him re-
ported by the county commissioners OF
Miami county. The following is from
the Kiowa Signal:
ten to the editor of the Ashland Clipper.
we reproduce from that paper, as many
of our readers know the writer, Jim
Patten, former Greensburg boy, now
college Mr.. Patten was here recently
and while en- route East stopped at his
old home at Paola. The letter will ex-
plain the rest:
.sPaola, Kan, Sept 8. 1902.
Mr.. H. C. Mayse, Ashland Kansas
MY Dear Mayse: just dropped
down here to visit old friends, as my
old home town, Paola, where all this
anti-Kelly fight is going on. Today I
spent the entire morning running over
the books, vouchers, bank drafts etc.
at the court house, and 1 must confess
that every one of the charges made on
the enclosed against T. T. Kelly are
true beyond a doubt. He has stolen
thousand dollars. I saw all the books
vouchers and warrants and drafts this
very mornfng-the chain of proof of his
guilt is complete beyond all doubt-and
having promised several Of my friends
around Ashland that I would investi-
gate and let them know 1 take this
means of writing you what have found
with my own eyes. He is guilty of theft
beyond all doubt, and even though J
would hate to scratch any man on my
party's ticket, still could not possibly
vote for a man for state treasurer who
as county clerk, by raising warrants
drawing duplicates. ETC., has stolen sew
eral thousand dollars. Honesty is one
thing, at least, that should be above
party loyalty if we make success OF
our democracy. Sincerely yours.

off the flash and escape before the dazed
victims can interfere. The jointists are
watching for the pair good, and make
dire threats about what they will do
when the photographers try their

In one place. the first they entered,
they found two Santa Fe shop men and
a bartender in the act of eIevating
foaming stems. They touched off q
binding flash which the drinkers
thought for an instant to be an explo-

from in a Sixth avenue joint where
they repeated the performance. 1t is
the general suppositfon among the SELL
ers of strong waters that the pair are
the paid emissaries of the Stahl and
Stebbifls faction. and that the scenes
captured will be used on stereoDticon

campaign. There is possibility that
the photos will be used as evidence In
the prosecution of liquor cases, on the

There were fourteen hundred of
these mountain thugs and shakers
/ brought to Frankfort by Taylor and
his allies and camped on the capitol
grounds. They came there with
citizens clothes over uniforms, their
pockets loaded with pistols yard
long, and pardons in their hats from
acting Gov. Taylor; green in their
eyes and HI in their necks.
On the 9th day of Jan. 1900 Taylor
declared that an insurrection existed
and adjourned the Legislature to
meet at London, KY, the place no
doubt that Virgil showed to Dante.
! The democrats broke quorum and
tried to meet at the city hall, but

chased them through the streets of
the capitol city like "dumb driven
cattle,'' and forbade their meeting,

number of form quorum, and as

Fell devoted, bat undying;

His last words were; ''Tell my
friends to be brave, loyal and true

today he sleeps in the Valhalla of

Sad, silent and dark be the tears
