not think that it would remedy the

is law making the State or its sub

impossible for vote buyer to know
whether or not vote-seller keeps
his promise; and as both are liars

Some Democratic papers seem
very much affected on account of
the Senate not at once organizing
and going TO work when it met and
say the peoples money is being
squandcred. Such papers failed to
look after the interest of the dear
people two years ago, when the
Democratic Legislature was dead
locked for so long in trying TO elect
a U. 5. Senator. How awfully in
consistent are most Democratic
newspapers anyhow.
