Possibility Of Prosecutions Fol-
lowing in the Ninth
District. &

Democratic leaders arc not at all salts
fed with the way things went the Ninth
District on election day, and from data
on the subject that is being gathered, 7
would cause no surprise should there be
some prosecutions against Republicans as
q result OF alleged violations OF the
Barksdale pure election law.
This statute Is very strict in its pro-
visions against the use, OF money or other
valuable things for5 the purpose OF intiu-
iencing votes, and yet d emocra in the
Ninth District do not hesitate to SAY, that
money was lavishly spent by the Republic
cans. They are also wondering at the
very small expense account OF Colonel
Slemp. g{ii y
There are those who believe that the
Barksdale law is a failure in the light
OF recent events. and who cont tend that
1t tends to corrupt rather than to purify
elections. Even f5no steps shall be taken
with reference to The Ninth District mat
ter. it is almost certain that something
will be done by the next Legislature along
the line OF making the law more effective.
