Alleged By IngalU
How Senator Wnlter M, I'lorco,
Democracy's Kiiliornntorlnl cantll
dnto, fraudulently secured loans nc
sreRatlnR thousands nf dollars from
tlio stntn school fund by using rela
tives anil business associates ns dum
my applicants Is mado public by
Claude K. InRnlls, secretary nf tlio
republican stntn central commlttcn
1 In an article n the Portland Telc-
. , ..
gram of October 11.
Three relatives two brothers nnd
a sister, and two business associates
wero usod by tho senator In so
curing tho loans.
In I'lene's Ifiioilwrltloa
Accompanying tho Tolcgram nrtl
cle Is a photographic Copy of tho ap
plication of 'Charles M. Fierce, broth
er of tho senator, and nlso of that
given to tho land board of flcorgo

laud board for a loan of $.'.000, nnd
Hint on Novombor 30 of tho samo
year Charles M. Plorco roconvoyed
tho land back to tho senator for tho
samo consideration as set out In tho
deed from tho senator to his brother.

Further tho data shews:
That on November 10, 1903, thu
