Who is
Eldon Young
and
Where is He?
Some scurvy pup who
gives his name as Kldon
Young has been forging
checks In Klamath Falls.
While Bruce Dennis, pub
lisher, was In Kugene for
a few days, this fellow
Y'oung. aa be calls him
self, forged .Mr. Dennis'
name to aeveral checks
nalng them at the stores
of the city to pay for
amall purchases and se
curing ihe remainder of
the check In money. ;
He Is said to be a
large man with a robust
face. He wore bib over
alls, had grease or Ink
on bis hands evidently
to carry the Impression
to the merchant that be
was a printer or a press
man, hence his possession
of the check would not
be questioned.
It Is bard enough for
a newspaperman to get
a reasonable credit estab
lished without - having
some crook like this fel
low forge a newspaper
man's name to checks.
'One of the checks waa
givtn on the First Na
tional bank where Mr.
' Dennis had no personal
account and all of the
checks forged were per
sonal checks.
-TMa afternoon the
sheriff and police de
partment were throwing
lines over Southern Ore
gon and Northern Cali
fornia to apprehend the
forger. Mr. Dennis stated
be would give 1.5 re-w-ard
for the capture and
conviction of the crim
inal who had seen fit to
forge his name.
