Senator Lorimer of Illinois is not the
first 10 be charged with obtaining his
seat I'm the august chamber to which
he has been admitted by bribing MEM
bers OF the legislature that elected
him. There have been several notori-
Gus instances since the senate was
first unfairly dubbed a club OF mil
lionaires But the gross and vulgar
way OF direct bribery of members of
the legislature is not the only way or
the commonest way of buying seats i'm
the senate.
There have been in recent years a
number OF very wealthy men in the
been there but for a liberal eXpendi-
ture of money for the benefit of the
party through which their advance
ment was obtained. Generous contrib
utions to campaign funds have created
their only claim or title TO the high
place they have attained. II for the
purpose of getting a seat in the Uni
ted States senate a rich man pays the
expenses necessary to secure the nom
nation and election of candidates FOR
the legislature upon whose vote it de-
ponds and To make himself the favored
candidate of the leaders of the party
i'm his state for the place, he buys his
seat as truly as if he waited until the
legislature met and had his emissaries
corrupt sufficient number Of its
members To st$ure the prize.
Sometimes a seat has been bought
for a senator with other peoples mon
cy. The senator himself has been
bought as well as his election. Sup
pose he is a skillful politician and coll
lector of campaign contributions, bar
gaining legislation and administrative
favor for funds wherewith TO meet po-
litical expenses. and gains support by
the disbursement Of money supplied
by others and thereby reaches the sen
ate: his seat has been bought and 1t
may be bought through being in po-
sition to distribute patronage to those
who control votes. and promising pa
tronage TO those who give him support
What better is that than any other
form Of purchase?
There have been senators who rep
resented certain powerful interests
to be affected by national legislation
relating to the tariff or To corpora
tons or some matter Of policy by which
they were liable to gain or lose, and
these interests" have contributed
largely TO campaign funds and secured
the election of such senators by very
substantial aid. Their seats have been
bought for them to secure their SER
vices. II the case of Lorimer is TO be
investigated, it would be well To have
the inquiry as broad as possible to
cover other means of purchase besides
the direct payment Of money for spe-
cihc votes in the Illinois legislature.

DANIEL IS GUILTY
 OF MANSLAUCHTER

Clarksville. Dec. 16 After an all-night session the jury in the case of the state against Orville R. Daniels for the killing ,f Dr. J. w. Mitchell December II, 1906, returned as it's verdict at $50 this morning that Daniel was guilty of voluntary manslau2hter and his sentence was fixed at two years in the state penitentary.
 The defense then moved for 8 new trial, which was overrulled, but an application for an appeal to the Supreme Court was grant. I'd and Daniels was released on 6 $2, 900 bond with 60 days time in which to perfect his appeal.
 Whether an appeal will be taken is unknown; Capt. A. s. McKennon, ona of the attorneys for the defense, stated that il probably would.
 Shortly after the verdict was rendered, friends of Daniels be. gan to circulate a petition to Governor Donaghey for Daniels Pardon, While the case has attracted much attention, through the fact that both the defendant and the deceased were we'll known throughout the state, and the courtroom has been crowded to it's limit since the trial began Monday, the case has been devoid of sensational ism, which, it was thought, would characterize it. The Ga zette erred in detailed concern ing the testimony of Dr. E. w. Smith of Little Rock and of Mrs. Daniels sister. Their testimony was that Daniels told them the story of the killing at different times and not, as was reported. at the same time. The state ment that the testimony of both was ruled out is erroneous.
