hopes Of his recovery. Domestic
troubles seem to havo been the cause OF
the act.

SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saying.

The verdict at the polls should
be the verdict Of the people. Yet
after almost every election the cry
Of fraud and illegal proceedings is
raised, and the defeated candidates
prepare to contest the officially
announced results. II the law was
strictly complied with, and every
safeguard against unfairness OBJ
served, this could not be the case.
The threats of prosecution for
high-handed acts are laughed at,
and the courts are only regarded "a
harmless scarecrows, from which
official offenders come forth vindi-
Gated and assume the roll of in
jured innocence.
Yet, there is tribunal before
whose stern countenanCe the ballot
box criminal trembles,-public
opinion. Once aroused, the people
are more terrible than the cyclone,
more remorseless than fate.
The office or place won by ques-
tionable means, used in defiance of
law, proves an uneasy seat to even
the most callous politician.
You may hush the press but you
cannot silence the people, and the
verdict of the ballot box, when OBJ
tanned by bribery, by corruption,
by unfair methods, is reversed and
the people only await the first OPP
portunity to set their seal Of con-
domination upon the bogus YER
dict.
In few weeks our citiz Ms will
be called on tovote for city officials.
1t will be a most important cleo
ton, in fact the most important
we have ever had. Our city is
about entering upon an era of per-
manent public improvements;
half million of dollars for the
building Of sewers is now at the
command of the city government.
That this great work shall be
prosecuted to successful finish,
requires that the city government
shall be placed in the charge Of
men with clean hands, men above
the control and manipulation of
scheming local political rings or
factions.
Our people voted this large loan
with the understanding that it's eX-
penditure should, as far as possi-
BILE. go to our own citizens and not
be made slush fund to employ
thousand alien tramps to be fas-
tened upon our ballot boxes for the
"Big 6" or any other so-called
"big" combination.
The registration and ballot law
has proven no safeguard against
wholesale registration and ire
sponsible voting, but it is no fault
of the law; it is the best we have
and the people will have less trou-
BILE with it at the next election. It's
greatest value is the securing Of
list of voters,-and being able
thereby to detect fraud.
The people have their eyes on
the men who may have won sue
cess by doubtful practices; any at
tempt to fix up combinations
which have for their object the
overthrow Of the intelligence Of
the community will be detected
and rebuked.
