Senator McComas of Maryland charges
that the plan by which the Democrats
carried the state was to mark the bal
lots before giving them to the voters.
The ballots were then thrown out as de-
fective and in this way. he claims,
enough Republican votes were rejected
to have changed the result Why didn't
Senator McComas' party provide the
state with voting machines while it had
control of affairs? There is no longer
any excuse for any party to cry fraud
after it has once been in power and got
out. Machines insure absolutely a free

THOMSON'S BODY BLOW
Express Agent Convicted For
Violating Prohibitory Law.

A case presenting some novel features
of the application of the prohibitory law
was tried Wednesday before Judge Viii
liam Thomson of the district court OF
Usage county.
1t seems that a young man In the en-
ploy of the Wells-Fargo Express COM
pany at Scranton in Usage county re-
ceived in the usual course of business
jug of whisky consigned to a person at
Scranton for which the price was to be
collected by the express company be
fore the delivery of the jug of whisky
to the consignee. The consignee refused
to receive it and another party desiring
to get it. the agent got an order from
the consignee to deliver the whisky to
this other person on payment OF the
bill to the agent The agent delivered
the jug to this third person upon the
receipt of the price and was arrested
and tried before jury which brought
in a verdict of guilty of the violation OF
the prohibitory law The court gave
to the jury a charge of the law In his
instructions. The instruction was:
IF you believe from the evidence be-
yond a reasonable doubt that some one
had sent through the Wells Fargo Ex-
press company a jug of whisky, an in
toxicating liquor, to Mac Husband, at
Scranton, the price whereof or any por-
ton thereof to be collected upon the
delivery of SAID whisky to said Mac
Husband, and that the defendant
knowing or having reason to believe
that said jug contained whisky, deliv-
6reQ the same 10 Wlln6SS CHcPdIQ Will
the consent of said Mac Husband, or
upon his order, and said defendant col
lected the price of said whisky or any
portion thereof from witness Shepard,
and thereupon delivered the same to
Shepard, and that at said time neither
the railroad company nor the Wells
Fargo Express company or the defend
ant had any permit to sell intoxicating
liquors; that these things occurred In
Usage county in the state of Kansas,
on the 18th day of March, 1901, then
you will find the defendant guilty,
whether he thought he was committing
a crime not"
If this is good law, the wholesale men
of Kansas City will find one of their
avenues Of selling liquor to people in
Kansas closed up. For it has been sup
posed the railroad companies and the
express companies were immune from
prosecutions where they either directly
or indirectly aided the seller in violat-
ing the law

Referring TO the suit of william Mar
tindale filed against c. Hood and 9TH

Gazette says:
"A suit was filed in Topeka the other
day against a number of Emporia citi-
zens, in which William Martindale &C
cused these citizens of buying his prop
erty for less than it was worth. The
story is an old one The same case has
been brought in other courts by the
same crowd, and after they get their
petition of allegations in the news
papers the case seems to lose in
terest. The whole story has been
threshed over so many times the Ga
zette sees no special reason for reprint
ing it. When the case comes to trial
the evidence will be important-if 1t ever
does come to trial OF course in the Pc
tition of the defendants. they deny alb
solutely, everything IN the Martindale

II remains to be seen whether or not
the man whom the labor unions elect

many other reformers before him who

rule Is that they destroy their oppor-

which they have been chosen by aspir-

San F'rancisco's new mayor to avoid
