active in the politics OF America for
the space Of about half decade
such men are Il menace not only
in their own times but in the times
that succeed them. They leave pol
luton in trail behind them, The
relation between the deplorable con-
ditions in Adams and other Ohio
counties in 1910 and the Hannaism
of ten and fifteen years ago must be
left to be accurately established in
the Legislative inquiry Governor
Harmon very properly recommends.
Mark Hanna's sinister influence

An Answer to Questions.

The Commoner receives great
many inquiries in regard TO men
whose names are being mentioned
in connection with the Democratic
Presidential nomination. II Is not
able to answer all questions but it
will he pleased to answer where it
can and to make inquiry where it IL
uncertain. Four persons are being
mentioned with frequcncy-Folk
Gaynor, Harmon and Wilson, aud
their records are being examined.
Folk was an active supporter of
Bryan and Sewell in 1896 and has
supported the Democratic national
ticket in all the presidential cam
paigns since.
Mayor Gaynor has supported the
national ticket In all campaigns.
In 1896 he was conspicuous as sup
porter OF the Chicago platform-he
was one Of the few prominent Demo
Gratis IN tho east who stood up for
the party creed and ticket-and he
has been faithful ever since.
Governor Harmon, then member
of Mr.. Cleveland's cabinet, did not
vote in 1896, but in 1900 presided at
Mr., Bryan's meeting at Cincinnati,
Governor Wilson supported Pal.
mer and Buckner in 1896, but is sup
posed to have supported the Demo.
cratic national ticket in subsequent
campaigns. The Commoner has no
positive information as to the cam
paigns since 1896, but will be pleased
to publish any authoritative infor-
nation which any reader may have
on the subject. The Commoner.

Mr.. Taft's Appointments.

Satisfying, no doubt, his selection

Wholesale Ohio Vote-Buying.

An extraordinary Doodle scandal
in the State of Ohio is beginning tn
occupy attention In the press. OH.
or scandals in recent years Of the
same sort, of which those at Pitts.
burg, Albany and san Francisco are
examples, have resulted from the
frailty Of the representatives Of the
people. This scandal in Ohio has
resulted from the frailty Of the peo-
pie themselves.
1t is said that two-thirds of the
qualified electors OF Adams county
in that State are accustomed TO sell
their votes. The statement appears
incredible until 1t is specified that n
Grand Jury has returned 600 indict-
ments for accepting or receiving
brides in elections and that ll2 per-
sons have already pleaded guilty to
charges supported by the same kind
Of testimony on which the Grand
jury expects to return 1000 add.
tional indictments.
The names of eight other Ohio
counties are given in which, it is
declared, the corrupted condition Of
the electorate is as bad as in Adams
county. Is the statement OF the
orator as to the impOssibility OF in
dieting a whole people to be dis
proved?
Particularly significant is the
that the purchase of votes
by the few and the sale OF votes by
the many has been a recognized and
regular system in these Ohio coun-
ties in every election for the past
fifteen years. II 1t had its initia-
tive fifteen years ago, it would have
been Mt about the time an Ohio mil
Iionaire of wide celebrity was, with
the aid OF II huge campaign fund,
carrying nominating conventions
and national elections for one of the
leaders Of his party and procuring
III Ohio Senatorship for himself.

were given by King Charles as keep
sakes on the day of his execution?
There are quite number OF claimants
for the honor. One pair has recently
been the cause of law suit, and 1t
was said In the course OF the trial
that they were given by the king to

is yet another pair which has had O

Charles on the day of execution by q
trusty hand to Speaker Lenthall for
amity's sake" Only one of the pair
now survives, the other was burned
in bush fire in Australia. The
precious gloves had gone there when
the Lenthalls awhile ago left their
homes and their lands and had with
Charles lis pardon Of Lenthall, been
cherished In many wanderings In Au-
stralia. The surviving glove and the
pardon are now back in England. be-
cause happily the Lenthalls are back.
II is quite likely that King Charles
gave away several pairs OF gloves, for
gloves then were costly things-cities
gave them to visiting sovereigns
where now addresses or gold boxes
are given. But In the days of the
Stuarts gloves were costly enough at
any rate to carry a sentiment even o
