PRIMARIES TO COST MUCH MONEY

PRIMARIES TO COST MUCH MONEY
The Senatorial primaries will cost Sena-
tor Rayner an even $4,000. Democratic
Chairman Vahdiver has worked out the
cost, and the foregoing is his estimate. 1t
is based on the assumption that Mr.. Ray
ner will be the only candidate in the field.
II others should enter the contest the ex-
pense will be divided among them equally,
but the total cost will remain about the
same.
When Senator Smith won out in the race
with former Gov, Warfeld and Congress-
man Talbot the cost of the primaries
was only $14,293. The late Senator
Whyte was a candidate for short term.
and he paid a proportionate part of the
cost.
Additional expense is incurred in the
present election because of the primary
election law, which provides that each
chief judge shall receive SO for his services.
His two associates each receive So for
their work. The clerk gets 49, making a
total of SIS, not counting the rentals and
pruning In eacn precinct IN maryland
there $50 precincts.
There has, it is said been suggestion
made to Mr.. Rayner to save his money for
the usual campaign expenses and refrain
from going into the primaries, since he will
have no opposition. 1t is not believed
however, that the law will permit this.
Democrats believe that way can be
found by which DR.. John w. Herring. the
State Comptroller. can get the nomination
without submitting his case directly to the
people. DR.. Herring, like Senator Rayner
has no opposition so far. 1t is not thought
that any will develop. 1t is estimated by
Mr. Vandiver that a primary election would
cost him $4,000 in the primaries alone
His salary is $4,000 wear.

7.HE KIDNAPPERs CONVICTED.

At MERCER, Pa. on Monday last, James
en- Pei sa a be man and wife,
&c eonvicte,io OF ST, ling Willie Whit
.a citing him and rting ransom OF
iG from his father, were sentenced
enitentary--the man for life and
laa for tygenty-i We years and to
ray fine Of $4,000. 9th of the culprits
collapsed when their Sc fences were pro-
nolmced upon them Il was later learned
that both of them had ecided to commit
suicide in case Of thc8 conviction. The
7vGnlan took an ennrmoas dose of morphine
ON the night before ,l, was sentenced,
but j failed 10 put an I'D to her life, only
max ng her deathly *. A razor was
founa secreted in tn ecktie of the man
and wits taken from hil before he had
chance TO carry ont his intention.
Before the c0nvicts we're taken to the
penitentiary. Boyle eave out signed state
ment, intended 10 I'M lcate Harry Forker'
brother Of Mrs Wilma, in the conspiracy
to kidnap Willie pn.ua, declaring that it
had been agreed that the childs uncle
(Forker) was to have received half OF the
ransom money. Boyle, in his statement,
also asserted that before the return of the
stolen child he had had an interview with
Mr., Whitla, the father, in which he had
given him proof of Forker's connection
with the conspiracy.
With reference to Boyle's statement
Horru EorLor cold.
a know absolutely nothing of this case.
There is nothing to it. only know Boyle
as know other members of his family, as
residents of Sharon. Ihave never had any
dealings with him. do not know the wo-
man who is said to be his wife. can
conceive of no reason why Boyle should
make such statement unless it be to get
even with the Whitla family for his prose-
cution, following the abduction. Boyle
never showed me any letters. Boyle did
not see me in Cleveland. The whole story
is willful, malicious and slanderous lie
Mr. Whitla.a also denied that he had ever
had an interview with Boyle prior to the
return of his son THE whole statement,
said he, sis willful and malicious lie.
He called the statement given out by Boyle
rot" and scandal" and denied it through
out in the most emphatic terms.
II is hard to conceive of crime more
dastardly than that of stealing a child
from its parents for the purpose of making
money out of their mental anguish. Many
people think that it should be punishable by
death in every case. There is absolutely
no excuse for diabolical wretches who
coolly exploit the love of mothers ant
fathers for their children by stealing then
and threatening their Ives in order to ex
tort a ransom. Tn kdaapper is a mon
ster of whom society should be rid at an!
cost, and the whole country will applique
the sentences inflicted upon the Boyles
with the possible exception of many whit
think that the Pennsylvania law on TIN
subject ought to provide for capital punish
ment in such cases and that these cold
blooded devils should have been put to TIN
