II has been whispered about by the
critics of the administration that the
Star Route swindlers would have more
than an even chance to escape that in
all probability they would never be
prosecuted. This false and malicious
charge will hardly be repeated now
that the whole gang Of conspirators have
been indicted by unanimous vote of the
Grand Jury. The fact that the District
Attorney sent 4,7oO miles after some Of
the witnesses certainly indicates no lack
