Democratic Corruption.

The Washington Republican says:
eve shall put Democratic loader on
the stand. George e. Pugh, one of the
oldest and most trusted leaders and
champions of Ohio Domooracy, made a
speech at Woods Theatre, in Cinciana-
ii, a few aights ago. in which he declar-
cd 4 could have had the warmest
corner on the hearth stone if / had only
shut my mouth about the stealing going
on among the Democrats. Why, my
friends, look at Butler county. Good
for 2,200 Democratic majority. Less
than two years ago they took the money
out Of their treasury and left hor with
out cent, and compelled her Senate r
to appeal to the Legislature of OH 10
for leave to use her credit to pay the
ordinary expenses of her administration.

Tho Democratic. Conservative State
convention of Maryland met at the
Maryland Institute, in Baltimore, last
week, and nominated its candidates Tor
comptroller and for clerk Of the Court
of Appeals.
Now, Democratic Conservative" is
good, and is something new. A party
that has not even got definite ma me
must be high old party. This couven-
ton, however, adopted platform, in
the first resolution of which it says, very
decisively
"Resolved, That the Democratic Con
servative party cf Maryland, in conven-
tion assembled, req6irn,s its adhesion to
The long established principles Of The De-
mocraey." v
The Italics are ours. Well, ~hy net
call the convention Democratic, without
any unmeaning supplement
This broken.winded old party. puts us
in mind of drunken fellow hanging on
to lamp post If he lets 60, he will
fall down; and if he holds on, he will
never get anywhere. Therefore, he Is
in dilemma what to do. So is this
Democratic, Conservative, Liberal Re-
publican, spawned, bandy-legged old
fraud ali over the country.

How THEY INVESTIGATE.

The following dispatch TO the
Louisville Courier journal gives
our readers an idea of the manner
of conducting the bribery case:
The investigation of the charges
that Senator Caldwell, of Kansas,
corrupted the legislature in orc er
to procure his election, attracts only
less attention than the Credit Mo-
bilier bribery. The examination of
witnesses is conducted in the room
of the Senate Committee on Priv
ileges and Elections. of which Mr..
Morton is chairman. Messrs. Trum-
bull, Anthony, Logan and Hill were
present at the examination to-day.
These gentlemen sit around the
table in various attitudes. Morton
is at one end of the table and Cald-
well at the other, with little red
haired lawyer at his side. Around
the room are score of witnesses
on either side of the questioner with
q rough, frontier, unkempt look,
esveral Senate attendants, and Just
enough newspaper men to keep the
outide world enlightened. Morton
takes the lead in examination, puts
his questions shrewdly, and seems
resolved to probe the matter to the
bottom. Trumbull sits by, keenly
alive to oil TO all that passes, and
follows Morton with q tendency TO
elucidate any unexplained piont.
Hill, Anthony and Logan say but
little, but after Morton and Trum-
bull are through, Sidney Clarke
goes for Caldwell by putting clos
er act of questions even than Nor
ton or TrnmbulL Caldwell follows
up with crOss-eXamination He is
a small, well-bearded man, COM
mon-place in mind, and looks un-
mistakably guilty. That he bought
his way to his high place does not
seem to be dOubted by any of his
listeners, and his ideas of the guilt
involved are evidently that the sin
lies in being found out.

TIE LAW IN REGARD TO BRIBERY.

the statutes OF Kansas are very tull
and explicit In regard to the punish
ment OF bribery in election. If en-
forced q good many people might get
into serious trouble. We quote for the
information OF our readers section 1919,
chapter 5, of the general statute rela-
tive to "crimes and punishments :"
SECTION 1919. If any person shall,
directly or indirectly, give or procure
to be given, or engage to give, any
money, gift or reward, or any office,
place or employment, upon engage
ment, contract or agreement that the
person to whom, or TO- whose use, or
on whose behalf such gift or promise
shall be made, shall, by himself or any
other, procure, or endeavor to procure,
the election of any person to any office,
at any election by the electors, or any
public body, under the constitution or
laws OF this State, the person SO Of
Tending shall, on conviction, be adj
judged guilty of bribery, and pu nished
by imprisonment and hard labor for a
term not exceeding i've years.
BY act passed March II, 1859, Sec
tions 19J, 1876, 1917, 200, 2Ol, 2O3, 1O4
and 205 of the statute above referred
to were repealed, but their repeal does
not affect the section we quote, or
other sections not named. Section 2
of the laid act of March IL, 1860, pro-
vides as follows:
SEC. 2. Any person receiving a
bride shall be competent witness
against the person or persons who
gave or procured to re given said
bride, In any criminal prosecution
against the party who gave or caus ed
to be given, said bride.
Take section 1919 of the general
statutes. and section 2 of the act OF
1859, as both are here given, and 1t is
easy to see what the result to Senator
Caldwell, for instance, might be, If the
law were simply enforced, as it must
