Judge Jackson, Of the Federal Court in

~ Va, on Tuesday last said:
You see in almost every paper and You

amounting TO millions if necessary. Will
be contributed for the election Of this or
that man who may be a candidate for
public office.
..Tne country has grown SO hardened to
this thing and so accustomed to it that
it no more awakens the feelings OF SEN
sibility It is time to arouse to a con-
sheraton of what we are tending to. 1t
is time we should stop, it IS time to call
a halt.
That is timely utterance. Nothing
save ballot box stuffing, is more demoral-
izing than the use of money to debauch
the suffrage. There can be no such thing
as free government in a republic like ours
unless the ballot is free. With corrupt
elections from any cause the government
must necessarily become corrupt. The
stream cannot be purer than its source.

On reaching the town of Manhattan,
in that state, he found a large crowd
assembled to greet him, and the men
had so completely usurped all the
points of vantage that there was no
chance for the women, who were
gathered in the rear, to catch even an
occasional glimpse of what was going
on. In vain the women pleaded with
the men to get down. They held their
positions and resisted all appeals. In
this emergency n young woman
shouted to her companions, "Try your

started forward with her pin leveled
at the obstinate men. The latter
hesitated, but it was only for a mo
