CALLAHAN WAS CAUGHT
GOES TO LEAvEnWoRTN

Pleading guilty to the charge Of max
ing false statement in applyins for q
pension from the government TO which
he was entitled, Thomas Callahan was
sentenced Wednesday to imprisonment
in the federal pepltentiary at Leaven-
worth for period of one year and one
day. with an added fine of $500.
The case was one Of the most inter
estine that has been presented to the
notice of the federal authorities in
some time. Callahan. who was born
in Ireland moved to this country early
in life and his family settled in Wis
consin, where his cousin, another
Thomas Callahan. later enlisted In Co.
A of the Wisconsin Thirty-fourth regi-
ment of volunteers in the Civil war.
At that time the defendant in this &C.
tion was but years OF age.
Thomas Callahan, the cousin and SOL
dier. died and left no family and in
1886 the younger Thomas came to Stark
county. where he filed on soldier g
claim and made use of his cousins war
record in filing his final papers with
the government land Office. Two years
ago he applied to the government for q
pension again on the grounds of his
deceased Cousins military service.
His inability to accurately name
some of the officers in his cousins COM
pany and regiment led to an ihvestiga-
tion which resulted in his recent in
dictment and arrest. The man pleaded
guilty yesterday afternoon before the
court in Fargo and was Immediately
sentenced.
1t is reported the grand jury at Fargo
has returned about seven indictments
out of the dozen or more cases presented
for investigation. One of these, it IL
rumored. concerns the case involving
one of the prominent citizens and busi-
ness men of Devils Lake, who is said
to have been charged with sending
obscene matter through the United
States mails.

THE EXTRA SESSION.

The assembling of congress in extra
session today marks the first step of
the new administration in the direc-
ton of those reforms which were
promised the country at Baltimore.
That President Wilson will do his ut
most to carry out the pledges made to
the people by his party no one seems
to doubt.
But, whether he succeed or fail he
is likely to come in for the customary
amount of criticism awarded to our
presidents. No president ever tried
more honestly or industriously to full
full his platform pledges than did Mr..
Taft, but he was abused and con-
demned for doing or attempting to do
the very things that had been prom
ised.
Like President Wilson, he believed
that platforms were made to stand on
as well as to get in on; that they are
a contract with the people.
1t will be we'll for the Democrat
congress if it shall be guided by the
chief executive and do not run coun-
ter to the will of the people.
1t might be well for the members
to look backward to the time when
the party last had control of the gov
eminent. Never have the voters been
more flagrantly betrayed.
Elected on a platform pledg1ng a
lower tariff they passed a law which
actually raised the average rate OF
duty and merely shifted the schedules
to favor other interests than those
previously benefited.
The memory of what happened
should still be fresh enough to warn
them against a repetition of that his
