SHODDY SELECONYICTED.

Mr. Thomas Murphy testified before the Gus
tonl-hOuse Committee that he paid money to
defeat the election of Horace Greeley as q
delegate to the State Convention from the
XIth Assembly District, and described the ar
rangcments which he made for that purpose
with man named Bennett, who prOfessed to
control the primary meeting:
Bennett told me what he could do, and told him
that any arrangements Bliss made with him would see
were carried out. I recolect simply and dis
tinctly that paid $500 to Mr. Bliss to hand to Mr.. Ben
nett for that purpose"
The following act passed the Legislature of
this State while Mr.. Murphy was member of
the Senate, and we presume that SO careful
and efficient public officer must have been
aware of its existence:
CHAPTER An act to protect primary meetings. cau-
cses, and conventions OF political parties Passed
April %, 1906
The people OF the State of New-York represented in
Senate and Assembly, do enact as follows:
SECTION III any person shall by bribery menace, or
other corrupt device whatsoever either directly
or indirectly attempt to influence any person. delegate

party OF this State vote in any primary meeting, eau
GUS or convention OF any such party in giving his vote
or ballot or deter him in giving the same. or hinder him
in the free exercise of the right OF suffrage at any such
primary meeting. caucus convention, and shall be
convicted thereof such person offending and con-
ycted shall be adjudged guilty OF u misdemeanor, and
shall fined imprisoned according to the discretion
OF the Court before which conviction shall be had

such imprisonment ono year.
SEC. Q. This act shall take effect Immediately.
Since the U. S. District Attorney has been
instructed to take measures for prosecuting
under the Bribery laws merchants who testi-
fed before the Committee as to the corruption
of minor officers of the Customs, will it not
be in order for Attorney General Barlow to
inquire whether the ex-COllectOr Of the Port
is not liable to prosecution for similar

1t is interesting sometimes to notice two relig-
ious newspapers indulging in the worldly pastime
of making sqlAbs about each other. They don't do
it particularly WELL possibly for want of practice
but the aninus is palpaple and indisputabe. For
example, Tie EraRgelist, with much JUNCTION, re-
corded the death of the Rev. John b. New OF In
dianapolis, Ind a Baptist minister, from "a cold
contracted during recent outdoor baptism"
The Evangelist even gave the following
thrilling particulars: "He had to enter a
river where tho ice was broken for the purpose,
and, all dripping wet, to walk nearly mile to
change his clothes afterward." Very curtly The
Examiner and Chronicle retorts: First, the Rev.
John b. New, deceased was not Baptist minister.
Secondly, he did not die of cold but OF trouble
with his kidneys of long standing. Thirdly, If no
had caught cold from imprudent exposure after bap-
tism does that prove anything against the duty OF
baptismfn II our opinion be worth anything. we
cheerfully give it, We have nothing to say OF bap-
tism, but we think that the late Rev. Mr.. New
should have changed his clothes upon coming up out
of the water, before walking mile.

We have already mentioned the original style Of
prayer adopted by the Rev. Mr.. Cudworth, Chaplain
of the Massachusetts, House of Representatives. The
other day, the chaplain made some pretty strong
illusions in his supplicatiOn to Woman's Suffrage
When he had said Amen" up from his knees, so to
speak. jumped Mr.. Kimball of Boston, who wanted
to know whether it was in order for person not o
member of the House to speak on questions before
the House. There could be but one answer to this.
Another member objected that the prayer was clear
insructionto the House how TO vote ON the mattero
Woman Suffrage. Nothing came of a not very cred
liable debate; and we suppose that the chaplain VIII

Murder VIII Out.

Our readers will perhaps re-
member of the destruction by
fire of a cabin, belonging to
Hope Furnace Co., near Zaleski,
some FIVE years since, and that
its two occupants, young mer
named Scott, were, it was re-
ported and believed, burned to
death in 1t. Later information
leads to the conclusion that they
were murdered. The develop
mentS are reported thus: John
Slavens, who was working at
Hope Furnace at the time of the
fire went from there to Tennes-
see, where, lately, he murdered
his nephew, for which he was
tried, found guilty, and SEN
fenced to the Penitentiary for a
long term of years. Before,
however, he was forwarded to
the Penitentiary in accordance
with his sentence, either he or his
wife confessed to the murder of
the two Scott boys and that he
had fired the cabin to hide the
deed, which was done for money.
The citizens of the neighborhood
in which Slavens was imprisoned
became exasperated on learning
of this double crime, broke open
the prison and hanged him.
