Buy,nr Vote. for H,IL.

New York Times despatch saws OF the
election in Elmira, Gov. Hills own town,
where the Democrats made a gain of 1900
votes: The most disgrsceful election that
ever took place in Chemung county took
place to-day. In Elmira the Democrats
started in by paying $40, and increased that
figure 30 that from noon until the polls closed
500, 1926 and 1927 we're paid in open market
by Gov. Hills heelers. Honest men left the
polls in disgust, and many hundreds OF men
in good circumstances took the money.

them as big as a mans arm In some cases,
and this extra weight tore of the fastenings
and pulled over the poles. Mr.. Olary, who
returned last night from Townshend, was
obliged 10 reset no less than "a poles be-
tween Wilamsville and Townshend. The
state Of things on the Wilmington line, where
Geo. Niles was sent to make repairs, was
equally bad.
A pole at the top Of High street hill in this
village was pulled down, making bad tangle
OF the wires. Telegraph lines also suffered.

This week is not the first time that Mr..
Atkins has made a pretended denial Of the
exposures made by The Phoenix Of his politi
cal methods in this county, nor is II the first
time that he has lodged behind general
denial TO save meeting squarely any one Of
the specific charges which we have made.
Mr.. Atkins's tactics are those of q man who
has nothing to say in sell. defence. When he
gets ready to show himself in the open field
we will talk with him some more. Mean
time, II his present methods are making him
'still stronger with the majority of the Dem
ocrats," tits bad for the majority-that is all.

very unpleasant affair took place in from
of Mr.. Shockley's store on Monday mornipo
last. An unsuspecting young lady had lust
reached the steps when she was suddenly
embraced by an intoxicated man. He de
elared he merely reached out to steady him
self, but 1t hardly seems fit that our girls. who
are usually considered as good as any in the
land, should be used as bracing-posts for
drunken wretches.
Evidently this creature had forgotten that
Monday morning is the time to turn over a
new leaf or perhaps the liquor sellers had
forgotten to what extent they are their broth
ers keepers.
Now Is the time when certain highly re-
spected citizens are requested to attach their
highly respectable names to certain licenses
that give certain responsibility men the nriv-
ilege of scattering liquor broadcast through
the Peninsula. Let the afore mentioned cit
liens pause before they place their signatures
upon these licenses, and call to mind the
many sons Of our town alone, whose lives
and those of their heart broken mothers have
been ruined by the outrageously loose liquor
laws of this place, and the pitiable lack of
moral courage to enforce even those. When
the great summing-up day comes, and the ac-
counts for good and evil are demanded bv
the All-wise Judge, will those citizens who
have promoted this ruinous sale feel quite so

We respect free speech and shall pro-
tect it whenever the public shall not
be disturbed by it, but we shall not
consent to allow the privilege to be
used, if we can help it, to the dis
honor Of the God of the Jew and

whose existance and omnipotence
the people Of this State believe, and
whom they fear and also trust, or in
the revilement or reproach of Christ,
or the disparagement of the religion
He taught"
When, therefore, we can feel that
Christianity has become engrafted
upon, and Incorporated with, so per-
manent and unchanging an element
Of the national life as the Common
Law; and that the Judiciary of the
land is, by virtue of its high func-
tiOns and acknowledged response
bilities, pledged to its guardianship
and protection, as the best means of
the greatest national growth, inhu-
ence, and prosperity; unless it dis
cards the authority of the general
presidents in the heightened past,
and shuts its eyes upon the teaching
ana example of history in this and
other countries for successive centu-
ries, we need not hesitate to say,
that this is a Christian country in
the eyes of the law.
The Rev. gentleman goes on to
state, that Christianity in some of
its most important features is incOr-
pOrated into the Statute Law; as in
its endorsement of the Christian day
Of rest, and by insisting that oath |
shall be made by doing reverence to
the Word of God, and that the stand I
ard of right and justice by which
every tribunal should be governed
IS the standard which the Gospel and
The Gospel only, holds up for the
guidance of men.
Space will not allow us to follow
DR.. Van Dusen through his argu-
nent. The principles he lays down
ire clearly proven by facts, and the
lnprejudiced reader must acknow-
edge, that this is a Christian cOun-
ry in the eyes of the law.
