Save the Law.

IL said that an effort will DO mado
In the Legislature to amend the pure elec-
4 Hons law by inserting the word cor
ruptly" in all sections relating to tho
spending OF money In elections.
d II the act Is thus to be amended. IL
,ulsht az we'll be repealed, for 1t Will be
4 meaningless. and money will be spent
ia libituu. There are many politicians
4 az many minds, and each and every poll
tjctAn has his own idea az to what con-
ntitutes corrupt expenditure 81
money in elections. There are men OF
High standing in the State OF virginia
who do not hesitate to say that 1t is
!. entirely proper and even patriotic 70 buy
sotes. Their argument Is that there IS
aiwavs a. floating vote for sale, ana that
7, II is In the interest Of good government
thxt this vote shall be purchased and
nolled In the right way. There arc others
who take more liberal view even than
thle, and say that all is fair In war ana
I politics. and that a man has perfect
right to us.s money in elections IN such q
way as to promote his own candidacy
IN short, If the pure elections law DC
amended as suggested. each and every
fandiaate will interpret it to suit him
1 selt. and we do not see how it VIII be
@ possible to convict any man OF cor
M Yupt'' use OF money. The law could be
+ .yaded. and would h, ovaded, and would
he practically a dead letter.
Ono argument that has been used
sainst the existing law Is that 1t puts
the honest man at disadvantage. Rue
In all conscience could not THIS arsu-
mont be used with greater force against
4 Yhe law with the proposed amendment!
1;nder the existing law the man who
spends money in any way except as pro-
vided subjects himself to Indictment and
prosecution. and II tina law be rlgidly
enforced, If those who violate It's pro-
visions are made to suffer for It, 1t Will
not be long before the law will be strictly
observed. But If any latitude be allowed
The dishonest man will spend money with
s a free hand, and 1t will be next to i'm
POSSIBLE to catch up with him and con-
rict him.
But grant that tho honest man Is

about It? Tho honest man Is always al

uetition with thieves. But is that ren-
son for repeating our laws against theft:
what is To be our standard, honesty or
dishonesty? Because some men evads
the law and buy votes. are we to repea
the law and let oil men buy votes? Arc
we 10 make vote-buying Legitimate trat-
xic In Virginia?
And because some men evade the Ian
and eeu their votes, ire we to repeal tho
law and encourage all men TO sell their
votes for price7

They should make tho law as rigid ns
