committee squarely up to John j.
Blaine, state senator, VINO brought
the charges.
As result Blaine admitted he had
no information personally known by
him to be true upon which to sub
stantlate his charges. He admitted the
charges were baseed largely on pews-
paper editorials, political speeches
and hearsay.
"And upon such Information, you
were willing to make allegations
which might jcopardi1e the reputa-
ton of United States senator and
which, II proven true, might send hlm
TO the penitcntiary-is that true?

How do you know this money was
given to Edmonds to commit bribery
and to accomplish other corrupt
ends?" Blaine was asked.
II had Edmonds word that he re-

purposes. The words "corruptlng and
