In the result of the trial of Durrant two
things have been condemned-the pris-
oner at the bar and the sensational press.
The condemnation of the first has been
pronounced by the verdict Of twelve men );
that of the second proceeds from the in
telligence of the community at large. The
sensation mongers have been proven guilty
on all their sensations. The mysterious
woman, the secret confessions, the hid
den links, the startling facts, the horrid
Developments, the grewsome revelations,
the ghostly witnesses, all these things that
made up the daily sensations along with
the pictures of bIood-curdling shoestrings

been proven to be lies-the kind of lies that

not ashamed of. From these things for

over, for among the number of dwell

in cottage form, each crowned with
a gambrel roof. Between these two
structures is a connecting link in the

the residence section, as is the case OF
the bakery We take a just pride in
our beautiful streets and our we'll

as to destroy these lines it is mat

The Purity of Election Law,

tons. The root of all evil has prob
ably not been expended here in near
the quantities that it has in other
states, but owing to the sparseness Of
our population it perhaps had more
effect and as result it has been noto-
rious that in contest between a rich
man willing to spend his money and
poor man without it, the election
has been foregone conclusion. This
should now, however, no longer be
the case. Perhaps the most import
ant law enacted by the last legislature
is the Purity of Election Act" Its
provisions render running for Office
much more complicated affair than
it has been heretofore been, and it is
time that would-be Office holders
should be looking into it's require
ments; especially is this the case in
view Of the fact that failure to com
ply with them will not only subject
the candidate to criminal prosecution,
but, what will possibly seem more
important to him, the loss of Office
