their consumption may even be deleterious

THE AUSTRALIA OPIUM.
One of the smuggIers Receives a
Heavy Sentence.

tt"Nf othtthVts
The trial of Lui Bonani, in
whose room the opium off the
Australia was found by Captain
Scott on Monday night, took place
this morning. Captain Scott,
officers Xavier and Cordes testi-
fed to the finding of the opium as
already detailed in these columns,
and Lu Chong, who is an expert
on opium, swore that it was a
first class quality of either the
Victoria or Chinese article.
No testimony was offered for
the defense and the Court found
the defendant guilty and sentenced
him to thirty days in Jail, fine
of 5000 and costs amounting to
$40. The case will be appealed
to the Circuit Court for mitiga-
ton of sentence.
The two women Mrs. Gonsalves
and Miss Rodrigues who are ac-
cused of taking the opium to Bo-
nani's room were arraigned on
the charge of uniawfully import
ing opium and pleaded not guilty.
Their trial is on this afternoon.

such enactment, technically called
corrupt practice laws, are now in opera
ton in ten states Of the Union, Cali
fornia. Colorado. connecticut, Indiana,
Kansas Massachusetts, Michigan, Min
nesota. Missouri aud New York. Mn
mesota and connecticut joined the num-
Ter last year.
The editor Of The Century says the
best laws against corrupt practices IN
elections are those Of California and
Missouri. although the California law is
little observed. It VIII surprise some
people to be told that besides having
the best law against wholesale vote buy
ing Missouri is the state of the Union
I'm which that law is best enforced. The
law in Connecticut is Of little good,
while that Of New York is not only
poor, out is very isdifferently observed.
Yet both New York aud Connecticut
are sure in their own minds that their
civilization is far superior to that OF
Missouri.
Tie corrupt practice law Of New
York is chiefly confined to requiring all
candidates to make sworn statements
Of the amount Of money they spent
during the campaign. Attempts have
been made TO amend the law so as to re-
quire campaign committees to do the
same, but The Century says the amend
ments were rejected with shouts OF
derision.
The spirit that at present needs
awakening in tins matter is the public
conscience of the voters. Until that is
alive to the unspeakable meanness and
dishonesty Of both buying and selling
votes not much can be done by corrupt
practice laws.
