A BLAST FROM THE BENCH.
at Bribe GiSers and Takers in St. Louis.

St. Louis, Feb. 4.-The February grand jury was impaneled, Monday morning, by Circuit Judge Ryan and was charged by him to continue the bribery investigation in the follow ing strong language:
 The work and report of the last grand jury revealed appalling con- ditions touching bribery O. public of fieials.
 Those revelations indicate that men in high position in the social life and commercial activities of this community have, in their endeayor to secure public franchises for private gain, not hesitated to bribe members of the municipal assembly to betray the public interests and welfare they were elected to protect.
 No graYer danger exists in our midst than this infamous method of robbing the people by corrupting their trusted representatives IL is a menace to our civic and political life. It is anarchy. for it strikes an insidious and deadly blow at govern ment.
 The higher the position of the per sons who bribe, or are bribed, the greater their moral esponsibility,be be cause the more potent for evil is their wicked example, but to all who so offend. be they high or low. pow erful or humble, there should be meted out certain, swift and severe punishment
