There -must be a queer lot of people
Hiving tup in Gnavesend, N. Y.. 'tie.- small
village made famous by the rema.rk.i
hile actions of Jo-hn V. .McKane, who
was, perhlaps, one of the most corrupt
bosses anld election tricksters' in the
United States. McKame's defiance of
Haw and order Ibacame bo flag runt it hat
not even the zealous 'and versatile
swearing of his- admiring henchmen
uns sufficient to save him from a prison
ceW. He was tried, -found guilty and
Sentenced to -five years in the State
prison of New York. (His term is now
about out, and it is this fact that ha*
revealed the peculiarities of the Groye
fcend code of morality. In spite of the
fact that McKane is a felon who rfon?
ly deserved every minute of the term
he secured for hi.s infamous trafflcing
in voltes, the people of the little village
In whUdh he conumStted his crimes de?
sired to make the occasion of his !tl>
eratt?on one of great rejoicing. It was
decided to send an immense dol.-gat.ion
to meet the ex-convict and escort him
into the viil.-rg.. like a conquering hero.
Mediane, however, had too much sense
to permit such a spectacular exhibition
to be made, showing that he has a bet?

among the Gravesend-ers it is <ii
