VOTE BUYING CASE.
A Brief Filed by the Attorneys of
Harry Baum.

A reply to Deputy Attorney General Had

appealed from the Montgomery Circuit
Court. was filed in the office Of the clerk of
the Supreme Court yesterday by Irwin c.

Baum was one Of thirty-hve voters who
were disfranchised for periods ranging
from twelve TO twenty years for selling
their votes TO the Democratic party man.
ayers in Crawfordsville at the November
election last year. The prosecutions were
instituted under the Caraway law, which
provides no penalty other than disfran-
chisement for vote selling. and the con-
tention OF Baum's attorneys IN their origi-
nal brief on appeal was that this law is
unconstitutional because the Constitution
provides that a man may be di~sfranchlsed
only when found guilty OF an infamous
crime. The attorneys for Baum argued
that vote selling could not be an
crime. because no imprisonment Is provided
for the one found guilty or II. Mr.. Hadley
urged in his brief for the State that the
nature of a crime. and not its penalty,
fixed its infamy. In the reply brief filed
yesterday Baum.s counsel quoted Judge

States W. Maxwell g Dillon, 200 as
declaring that in a legal sense the words

This, the attorneys contend, was the def

orally at the time the present State Con-
stitution was adopted. They say that I'M
der Mr.. Hadley's Interpretation getting
drunk and in that condition visiting a
public place might be regarded by some
h~igh-minded judges as an 'infamC Is
crime" In concluding their brief Baum's
attorneys say: IF public opinion is in
favor OF this sort Of law, a law that pun

wards and let's the arch traitor go unpun-

We believe. however. that the people regard
the man who buys as the responsible party,
as the real traitor. as the man who is
wholly responsible for this deplorable prac-
tice. We believe an enlightened public
sentiment Is in favor OF placing such safe
guards around the voters, many of whom
are poor and ignorant and have starving
families, that he may freely exercise the
right of suffrage.
