FOR THE CANDIDATE AND VOTER.

At a meeting of the County Democratic
Convention last Monday the business
transacted was almost exclusively of a
routine nature. We do not attempt to
give our own detailed account, but use
the secretary's report, which was kindly
furnished to us.
We desire, however, to call the atten-
tion of the voters and candidates to the
action taken in regard to the Act Of 1905,
which fixes heavy penalties for bribing
or accepting bIibes, the use of liquor or
other means Of consideration for votes
by candidates, or, in other words, "the
hnying or selling Of votos, for cash or
barter, by candidates or heelers." 1t is
a strict and far-reaching law, one that
should be rgidly enforced, and which, if
enforced, will prove beneficial to the
voter and candidate alike.
Let every candidate aud evory voter
read and study this Act carefully. 1t
will DO found Incorporated in the pro-
ceedings of the County Convention. The
strict enforcement of some such law is
badly needed to purify the primary cleo
tions in this State.
