a convicted felon Kelly robbed his
own county and when caught paid
back the money, and not only escaped
punishment for the crime, but was
elected state treasurer. He is now in
the tolls again. Curtis has been in
congress ten years at salary of
$4,000 a year He is now worth
100000. He has no other known in

is thought that it will only be a mat
ter of short time until he will be In
a worse predicament than either of his
boon companians, Kelly and Burton.
These three men are a heavy load
for the party to carry. 1t can't carry
them much further and survive the
strain, it is a good old wagon or it
would have broken down with an out
fit like that riding upon it.
Curtis, Kelly and Burton-don't
forget the name of this firm, of politi-
cal grafters. They have been doing
business a long time together but
they are getting mighty near the end
of their rope. The election one week
from next Tuesday will put the firm of
