Such of our Democratic cx-
changes as arc trying to show a
Republican connection with the
Cardwcil case evidently set Il low
estimate upon the intelligence of
their rcatfers: Not a single track
made in the whole Shiny trail from
where it starts with Cardwell's
speech to the point where it was
covered up with IS, 800 hush
money bears the single impress of
q Republican footprint. 1t was tothe
interest of the Republicans to keep
the Investigation going, and they
would hardly have been SO foolis;, as
to come butting into the game to
stop it at the point where the most
interesting disclosures concerning
the COZ iruptness of the state house
ring were being made by those in
innermost circles of that ring.
The "dignified sum" which Card
well received to drop his damage
suit hears the same odor rs the
money paid to Cook and Scibert by
he corporation lobbyists.

sphere of usefulness and every
thing affecting corporations had
been their field. In fact, they now
force themselves into all kinds Of
legislation and if the Cardwcll case
had been carried to a conclusion
these are the men upon whom the
odium would have fallen and they
would have been out of business.
1t is to he hoped that the case has
gone far enough to place these men
in the light they deserve and cause
every representative to shun them
as they would the plagne.
But what about the party
managers who make deals with
these oeiious lobbyists and, taking
their contributions to the party
campaign fund, concealed the
source by crediting them to an
other!
Secretary Of State Cook when
Chairman of the Democratic State
Committee accepted. according to
his own testimony, $4,000 from
Phelps and $1,000 from Carol and
credited the contributions to him
self because it wouldn't hook well
to have two1obby leaders contrib
ute large sums to the Democratic
campaign fund. -.
Anything made public damaging
to the lobbyists would reflect more
severely on the party managers
and Office holders who dealt with
the lobbyists. The lobbyists stand
for corruption and dark deeds,
but the party managers pretend
to stand for the pledges Of the
party to serve the people. If they
have dealings with corruptionists

The Republic continues to lay
the blame of the lobby's success at

can minority in the Legislature.
Isn't rather strange that so many
majority members are SO suscep-
tible to the ''evif' influences of Il
few Republicans? If the Demo
Gratis are morally so week kneed
that they cannot resist temptation
nor possess the courage to shoulder

Cardwell charged in his speech
that the Democratic state organi-
zation blocked legislation adverse
to certain corporate interests in re-
turn for money contribution by
the representatives, of these cor
pOrRtions to the Democratic cam
paign fund. For making this
assertion he was called ii liar and {:
disgrace to his party. He has now
proven the truth of his charge
by the sworn testimony of the very
man who said he had lied, Sam

The Law About newspapers.

Sometimes subscribers to al
newspaper are angry because their
paper is not stopped ut the end of
the time paid for. They let it run
on few years longer and then re-
fuse to pay on the ground that
they never ordered it except for
the time paid for. That sounds
plausible. If you order dollars
worth of sugar this week, Your
grocer is not justified in leaving Il
dollars worth of sugar every week
without further orders and collect
ing for 1t. But the law recognizes
difference between sugar and
newspapers. The following
points, set forth in the Public
School Journal, show what the OBJ
legations of Il subscriber are, ac-
cordine to the courts. The courts
have decided:
l. That subscribers who do not
give express notice to the contrary
are considered as wishing to renew
their subscription.
9. If the subscriber orders the
continuance Of the periodical the
publisher may continue to send
them until the arrearagc is paid.
3. If the Subscribers neglect or
refuse to take their periodicals
from the postoflice to which they
are directed, they are responsible
until they haye settled their bills
and ordered them discontinued.
I. If subscribers move to other
places without informing the pub
Usher and the papers are sert to
the former address, they are re.
sponsiblc.
). That refusing to take periodi.
calls from the office or renewing
and leaving them unc,lled f,s, is
prima f;trcie evidence of fraud.
6. If subscribers pay in advance
they are bound to give notice al
the end of the time they do not
wish to continue taking it, other
wise the publisher is authorized t.
send it, and the subscriber viii bt
responsible until IN express notice
with payment of all arrears, il
seat to the publisher.
The latest laws are such thai
newspaper publishers can arres
one for fraud who takes Il paper
and refuses to pay for it. Under
this law the man who allows hh
subscription to run along from
time to time unpaid and then Or
ders the postmaster to mark it re
fused aud has postal card sen
