land. You all know them and what
they are. Take that bulldog face Of Jim
Barry. He is cowardly villain and
every word that he uttered on the wit
ness stand, l tell him is a lie. / never
told Barry any such stuff. Take that
Cordano, he would hang his own father
for a 500 bill. He knows that he per.
jured himself. And that Ford, you all
know him, and he knows that he was
paid for swearing false. / will not say
anything more about those three de-
tectives. They are all villains, and per-
jured themselves for money. II they
had their dues they would be
behind prison bars long ago.
Take that Walter Williams, Of Dallas,
what is he2 Listen 10 this talk for a
moment and you can tell that he is not
a man. Williams goes about the town
boasting TO the little boys that he has
been before the grand jury for the last
six years. When man will 20 on the
witness stand and swear away mans
life falsely, yes that kind Of man can
always get before grand jury. Will
liams knows that he swore false, and
that he misrepresented what said.
May his dreams haunt him forever.
Take that man Spar, no wonder the
cold sweat poured out on his face while
he was on the witness stand. Poor
man, he knows that he perjured himself
Nobody but a villain would sell his life
for few dollars like Sparr did. When
Hall and Hayden went down to see that
man Spar, they knew that he was
weak man and could be bought to do
anything for dollar. Hall aud Hayden
know that every word that man uttered
was false. God have mercy on him.

THE NON-VOTER.

The Waterbury (Conn.) Republican
touches up the non-voter in this wise
There are two kinds of bad Ameri-
cans-those who are bad because they
do things that are bad and those who
are bad because they do not do things
THAT are good. The latter class is mo
less harmful because of its Inactivity;
in fact it is sometimes worse than the
former because it lacks hhe saving
virtue of energy. As an excellent
representative of this latter class of
bad Americans we place in a little
niche all by himself that eminent
citizen the man who doesn't vote.
The man who doesn't vote is an enemy
TO his neighbor, his country and him
self. He is a menace ito good govern
ment, a friend to corruption, a hind
rance to progress. He is either a con-
ceited, fault-fnding, thick-headed ig-
noramus, and in either case he's a
mighty poor specimen"
This is in part rather severe pic
ture, but it contains in the main a
very large germ that is lifelike. The
nIon-voter asuredly lis a shirker. A
sacred duty is presented to every
American citizen with THE right of
franchise, and it is to say the least
cowardly to refuse to perform it.
