THE TALLY-sHEET SENTENCE.

The sentence of Coy and Bernhamer is a
natural sequence of their conviction, aad
simply an evolution of justice. The merits of
the case were settled by the verdict of the
jury. The subsequent proceedings, the attack
on the verdict, the afidavits of undue infiu-
ence, the motion for a new trial, were merely
formal. None of them had any substantial
basis, and in some respects they were frivo-
lous. The attempt to attack the result on the
strength of subsequent idle talk by one or two
jurors only put them in bad light without
inyaidating the verdict That stands unim-
peached. Judge Woods heard all that coun-
sci had to say, and even permitted matters to
go on record that he might properly have
excluded. AS just judge he could not do
less than overrule all the dilatory motions
enforcement of the law. He did this with
promptness and precision, fortifying each step
as far as necessary by reasons for his decisions.
Every part of his duty was discharged with
dignity and fearlessness, and with as much
consideration for defendants feelings as the
case called for. He might have made the sem
tence lighter or much more severe. It is
heavy enough to show a proper appreciation
of the gravity of the crime, and light enough
to repel the idea of vindictiveness. 1t is just,
but not severe. The pronouncing of the sem
tence ends the case in the District Court so
far as these defendants are concerned. Their
attorneys will appeal to higher court, but
there is little reason to expect that the present
verdict and sentence will be disturbed. In
the interests of justice it ought not to be,
and we do not believe it will be. The convic-
ton and punishment of these men is not
thing to be gloated over, but the triumph Of
justice and the vindication of law are matters
for congratulation. The result should be
lesson and warning to political corruptionists
everywhere.

Every man knows that il the amendments
now sought for had been all that were asked
months ago, the gas ordinance would have
been so amended within five minutes. Shall
the city be punished now for the blunders and
mistakes of the past. or shall common sense
and business prudence resume sway over the
minds of the people as well as of the mem
bers of the Councils7 1t will be a shame and
disgrace for another day to be trifed away by
the Councils when they have the opportunity
to do a sensible, business thing, one
against which there has not yet been pro-
duced one single sound objection.

WE copy from the Terre Haute Express
brief report of the discussion had in the
Eighth district convention upon the topic of
''the bloody Shirt" to phrase that has
come to be expressive of the demand for the
equal representation and honest suffrage of
every citizen of the country. The discussion
is very instructive Both the debate
and the result illustrate what the Journal has
SO often stated, and now repeats: The "bloody
shirt" of equality, and a free ballot and fair
count, North and South, East and West, in
Indiana and in South Carolina, is to be waved
this campaign as it was never waved before,
and gentlemen with weak nerves, who may
not be able ito stand the racket" had better
go into hospital at once.

feel, an enemy to the prosperity of the city.
withdraw its short-sighted opposition, bid
everybody welcome and go ahead with its
own appointed and important work with the
hearty approval of everybody. When it shall
do this, it will have no more sincere friend
and earnest advocate than the Journal. But
its present attitude, put there by narrow-m minded
men, men actuated by malice and pride of
opinion, is wrong, disastrously wrong, and
before many days those who have sense
enough to see the inevita bic, will acknowledge
ii, if last nights disgraceful meeting is not
sufficient to open their eyes.

WHEN Mr.. Darnall, of the Greencastle nail
works, was in the city looking after the ques-
ton of location for his large enterprise, he
was not able to secure from the Trust either
promise or contract for supply of gas at
any future time at cent below the ordinance
rates. The Trust is not now, and was not
then, in position to offer certainty to
any manufacturing enterprise. Shall the city
