State Bribery Gases.

Considerable Of our space this week
is given to an account of the trials
commenced at Harrisburg last week
for bribery and corrupt solicitations Of
and by members Of the last Legislature,
and the people will read with regret
that, through mere technicalities, the
trials will probably be postponed yet
longer. Motions were made on part
of the defendants to quash the bills OF
Indictment, the principal ground laid
being that one too many men, by some
means or other, got into and served
upon the Grand Jury finding the bills.
This objection to proceeding with the
trials has, so far, caused delay and will
likely end in a continuance of the
cases. To the credit of Mr. Rum
berger, the member from Armstrong
county under indictment, he announced
that he was ready and willing to go to
trial, not desiring to take advantage Of
the technical pleas raised by other OF
the defendants. His constituents and
the people of the State generally will
think his case strengthened by this
action.

Associate Judge.

On Monday last commissi on ar.
rived here from Gov. Hoyt, appointing
William W. Dodds, Esq, of Prospect,
an Associate Judge of the county in
place of Hon. Samuel Marshall. Out
side of the question that is raised, as
to whether any vacancy exists in this
Office at the present time or not, we
can freely say that Mr. Dodds is as
competent and worthy gentleman as
could have been selected. But it is
and has been questioned whether a
vacancy really exists. Judge Mar
shall, although in an asylum, has not
resigned, nor have any legal steps
been taken to declare him insane or
incompetent to further hold the Office,
and until this was done it would seem
to be serious question as to vacancy
existing. He was placed in the asylum
as a private patient by his relatives in
the hopes of recovery, and for what
any one yet can know he may recover.
On what ground the appointment has
been made we are not informed. If
valid, it will hold good from this to
January l, 1881, year and month,
an election being held next year for q
full term. Mr.. Dodds, it is said, will
not be candidate for nomination.

DOEMANS! DOLMA
number of men had been in dicted for

number of men had been indicted for
a heinous crime, and he had supposed
that their counsel would be anxious to
try the cases on their merits. Instead,
the Commonwealth was confronted
with technical objections to trial,
and he and his colleagues, not having
known anything of the grand jury ir-
regularity, had not made the necessary
preparation, and consequently per-
mitted some things to go on which
tll,y should have prevented. Since
Judge Pearson's decision, counsel for
the Commonwealth had examined a
number of authorities, and were now
able to show by the decisions of the
best Courts that evidence contradict
ing the record cannot be allowed. He
quoted one of the decisions of Chief
Justice Gibson on the point, which he
claimed fully sustained his position.
He thought the counsel for the Com
monwealth was responsible for Judges
decision in Salter's case, because of
their want of preparation, and lndulged
the hope that they had now presented
a case which would be sustained by
the Court.
judge Pearson announced session
for Monday, December Sth, when ne
would deliver the opinion of the Court
on the admissibility of the evidence
proposed to be submitted.
At that time the date for hearing
will also be fixed. In any event the
cases will not be tried until the third
week in January. There will be a
session of the Court to morrow for the
purpose of giving the several accused
an opportunity to renew their bail.
