The redemption Of Jersey City began when
tn" first Of the ballot box suffers whose crimes
made the fall election III 1859 conspicuous even
in that ring governed town were convicted and
sentenced 10 the pcnitcntiary bl the upright
and fearlcs, Judge Lippincott. "Ju>tc" con
qucr, cycImorc." one of our major poets has
written but there have been times when it
seemed a, if Justice were iloutcd and dragged
in the dust in Jersey City. The conviction of
these rIScals WAS revelation. by their con
niyance and active furthcrancc the election of
Governor Albeit had been greatly aided, and
"A man was sent To the senate who had no right
there and whc was aftcrwarl forced TO yield
his seat 10 the Republican rightiully entitled
to it, The ballot box suffers were not repeat
cis or cplonizcd voters; they were election
officers who proved ,hamcfuly rccrcant 10 their
trust and deliberately corrupted the fountains
of popular authority AT their source. Their
crime wa+ no common one. but until Monday
last there was AT least "A chance that they might
escape the punishment they had so richly
earned
The election officers in seventeen precincts
were indicted. Grand Jury which did not
shrink from doing It's duty having been I'M
By the trial and conviction Of a number of them
In every ease Of conviction an appeal was
taken and none of the faithlcSS officers has
SuiI crcd punishment save three who pleaded
guilty. Al last the Court of Errors and APP
pcalS. the highest tribunal in the State. has
handed down its decision affirming the con
victionS. All those convicted must now serve
out their terms, and it is expected that those
who have not been tried will plead guilty, in
tho hope OF thus tightening their punishment
of course these men ought to suffer but they
only obcycG the orders of their supcriorS in
the course which they took That the mem
bcrS of the ring who were really responsible
for the raScay frauds will ever be punished
is too much 10 hone for.
Nevertheless Jersey City is to be heartily
congratulated on this notable triumph of JUS
tee II has been shown that laws cannot be
openly dcfcd there with mpunity. The final
conviction Of the ballot box suffers, taken
in connection with the recent signal defeat of
fho Democratic candidate for Mayor shows that
jersey City has no reason for dependency. Tho
