"Wilbur had distinguished visitor this

of Dodge City, KS. He and Mrs. Beeson
are the guests Of Sen. and Mrs. e. Bal
lard. Mr.. Beeson was one of the old
time sheriffs In Kansas In the days when
1t took nerve In no uncertain quantities to
enforce law In the woody west. In that
capa,ity he made himself hero by his
deeds of daring and acumen. After
things got tame and Mr.. Beeson had done
his full share In that line he stepped
down and out and let new blood take care
Of the then civilized country; but his fame
has and will always live on the Kansas
frontier that was. The people there
have since looked upon him as too valu-
able q character to surrender entirely a
public trust and have kept him in the
legislatures to guard their interests where
he is recognized as one Of the strongest
members. While here he purchased Of
Mike Korbel and Joe Hynek, Jr., one Of
their fine percheron colts, the nnenesa Of
which is best described by the fact that,
a Judge Of quality Of the colt, Mr.. Beeson
did not hesitate to pay s4oO for him."

Swindlers Use TiIlman's Name

Washington, D. c., Feb. 19.-Swind-
lers, it is alleged, have been using the
name of Senator Tillman so adroitly
recently that it was necessary today
for him to make the matter public in
the Senate, and to state that he had
asked the postofice department for
fraud order so that such operations
might cease.
The matter is thus explained in
Senator Tillman's own words: "Mr.
President, in the last three days my
attention has been called to very,
adroit scheme of swindling in which
my name is used as decoy. Letters
have come to me from Connecticut,
Wisconsin, Virginia and Michigan,
indicating the widespread manner in
which the swindler's circulars have
been sent out. This circular states
that I have taken eleven quarters of
Oregon land for myself and my near
est relatives. As a matter of fact, 1
have not invested one cent, nor have
I located single quarter section for
myself or anyone. Ny attention was
directed to these lands last Septem-
ber, and began to investigate the
present tenure and method of pur-
y
chase. Finding the situation to be as
it is. have introduced the resolu-
tion here directing the department. of
justice to take steps to restore these
lands to the public domain, so that
purchasers can buy them. That is
all. I will state further that I have
called the attention of the postofice
department to this swindle and asked
that a fraud order be issued. I make
this statement on the floor Of the Sen
ate for the purpose of warning the
people of the country to keep them
from being inveigled into sending
money for the purpose of playing this
game"
