Judge w Oods' charge to the grand Jury
gives a final and definite construction OF the
law in the Dudley case. The substance of
the chargels that the writing and mailing
OF a letter counselIng or advising fraud in
elections is not an indictable offense, unless
1t appears that some person received and
acted, or attempted to act, on the letter
This, says the Indianapolis Journal. throws
the Dudley case out Of court. Il has been
conceded for some time that there was no
evidence that the so-called Dudley letter
was ever received by any person within the
State, much less acted upon, or attempted
to be acted upon. In the absence Of such
evidence, the letter, even admitting it to
have been written By Dudley, was ike a
blank cartridge-fred IL the air Judge
Woods makes the law very clear that in
order TO constitute an indictabIe offense
there must be evidence that the letter was
part OF an actual fraud
As matter Of fact there is no evidence that
1t was ever acted on or received bv any per-
son n Indiana, and. OF course, no evidence
connecting 1t with the campaign IN any way.
On this state of facts Judge Woods virtual
~ charges the jury that Dudley can rot be
indicted BIS charge reveals the fact that
the acting District Attorney has been try
ing nard to force different construction II
the law on the grand jury, and compel them
to lid an indictment, evidence or no eyi-
oence The sum of the whole matter Is
that whatever the degree Of Dpdleys per-
sonal CT moral delinquency may have been,
there Is nothing to show that his letter

Is furnishing any ground or Justification

The old method of crushing the gold and
silver ore is still in use in Mexico and some
Of the South American countries. The roll
ing, drawing, cutting, milling and coming
processes represented in the pictures take
place in the mint. The machines doing
this work are driven by steam. Between
the rollers the ingots Of gold and silver are
run. This presses the metal into thin
strips, of the proper thickness, for the
coin. The strips are then drawn, like wire,
through steel guage in the drawing
bench after which they are cut into the
required size by the cutting press. Sub
sequently, the planchets or pieces are
weighed, and then run through the milling
machine, which forms rim around the
edges of the pieces. After being submitted
to the anuealing and cleaning process. the
plai,chets are put through the coming press,
at the close of which operation they are
ready to perform their function in the
world as measure Of price and medium of
exchange.
