The Richmond Times has been Indus
triously laboring for weeks TO fix charges
of corruption on the Democratic party OF
Virginia as the first step toward bringing
about a change In our election laws. On
last Sunday the Times fired a broadside
aimed at one of the 1000 precincts of the
State-Smither's Henrico county. For
aught we know the Times may be correct
IN It's allegations. The Times ought to
know. however. that irregularities may
occur under any election law. The oc-
currence Of fraud at one precinct does not
prove that the Anderson Mccormick law
ought to be abolished. Senator Chandler,
of New Hampshire. is Just row engaged
on the floor Of the Senate In fight against
the repeal Of the Federal elacIion-law,
alias the force bill" Mr. Chandler is
hard pressed for arguments. A few well
authenticated cases of election frauds in
the South would come In very oppor-
timely for his immaculat, champion Of
purity. If the Times will only persevere
a few months longer. It may discover cne
or two more cases which Will serve as
Republican ammunition, and then the
Times may enjoy the Infinite satisfaction
of earning the lasting gratitude OF that
exemplar of political integrity. Senator
