The grand jury which convened in
n Tanyille, ILL.,, yesterday is expected
to follow the example of the Ohio
grand jury by indicting lot Of citi-
zens who have been in the habit ot
selling their votes. in Ohio the pro-
ceedings were very drastic and yyry
one sided, and in Illinois they mus
also be one-sided so tong as the law
exempts bribers from punishment
Still the energetic enforcement of the
law even as far as It goes probably
would have wholesome effect In
communities where vote buying and
selling has been rampant for years.
Alexander county could stand some
