DR.. WOOD HEARS OF KIMMEL
Physician Who Operates on Him
Writes Of Operation.
HIS MEMORY Is NOW RESTORED
Recalls Names of Men He Has Not
Thought of for Many Years
Msy Come TO Omaha I'm
the Near Future.

Or. o. S. Wood yesteray dreceived
letter from DR.. Loren Wilder, the Chi
cago physician who operated on the man
who claims to be George Klmmel. DR..
Wood is a third cousin Of George Kim
mel and urged his cousin 10 undergo
the operation.
In letter TO DR.. Wood. the Chicago
physician says the operation was q sue
cess and that Kimmei has named two
men, Tom Bell and John wexier whom
he knew years ago. but had entirely for
gotten. Or. Wood says the names are
familiar 10 him but he cannot recall them
and viii tell DR.. Wilder the sams.
Positive He fs Cousin.
IT am positive that the man claim
ing To be George Klmmel IL my cousin"
said Or. Wood. HE has written letters
to me for some time now, and has told
me things that happened when he was
eight years old which nobody but George
Kimmel and myself knew about. / tried
to have the boy undergo an operation
when he was in Auburn. N. Y. but could
never convince him II was the only
thing to do. When he was attacked and
slugged in lsss an indentation was left
on the back OF his skull. The skull bone
pressed on the brain and caused him TO
forget everything and for several years
and he knew nothing OF his past. But q
day came when he began TO remember
things which happened. and his mind be-
came clearer. but an operation was nee
essaFy TO clear UP all doubts.
Now that the operation was success
his mind will clear. his cheerfulness will
be reflected in his face. and he will be
recognized. Since he was slugged several
years ago he has undergone many
changes which naturally would change
any mans face and appearance. His
signature to letters sent TO me are iden-
teal with q signature on a, mortgage
he filed in Omaha nineteen years ago.
George did not want to be operated
on, but DR.. Wilder offered to perform
1t without any cost i urged him to do
II. I knew that any doctor who would
perform such an operation. Just for the
reputation he would get out Of II would
certainly do all in his power 10 clear up
the boys mind and he has succeeded I
would not be surprised to see George
come to Omaha in the very near future"
Following is the letter received by Dr.
Wood from DR.. Wilder.
I am writing you q few lines TO let
you know your cousin. Mr.. George KIM
mel who was operated on by me Tues
day. Nay I. Is doing nicely. Since that
time he has had no fever. a normal

THE AMERICAN ISSUE

ture was called in extra session to sub
NIT a constitutional amendment provid-
ing for municipal option instead of
statewide prohibition. Under the lash
of the wet" governor OF the state the
senate voted for submission of such
amendment, but it failed in the house by
considerable of margin.
When Maine voted last fall to remain
in the prohibition column the liquor men
of the country were beside themselves
with rage and disappointment and at
once began to devise means for getting
even. The expenditure of money did
not concern them for they have thou
sands of poor devils all over the coun-
try spending their earnings for liquor
and helping pile up tremendous fund
for such contests.
Governor Plaisted of Maine, is tool
of the liquor gang The state has the
same legislature that submitted the pro-
hlbitory amendment which brought on
the fight last year. The governor called
this legislature in extra session to help
the liquor men and believed it would,
under his direction, submit local option
amendment and again plunge the people
of the state into another long and bitter
campaign. But the legislators evidently
have more good, hard sense than the
governor and the liquor men, for they
have refused to submit the local option
amendment.
1t will be interesting to note the next
move the brewery crowd will make to
capture Maine.
