count in the indictment, that Darrov
had bribed George N Lockwood, Q

Hutton instructed, did not justify q

The second count charged Darrov
with attempting corruptly to influence

The court also instructed that yer
dict of guilty could not be found on

IF you had no evidence independent
of the testimony of accomplices," said
the Judge, you must find the defend

require corroboration." This instruc

A Foolish Plank

one of the fatuOus blanks of the dorsing Senators Smith and Ashurst with special reference to their oppo- sition to the confirmation of Judge Sloan. From the democratic point of view these gentlemen had already ac- complished enough in congress to de serve endorsement.
 The plank is a foolish one for two reasons. It stamps the opposition to Judge Sloan as purely political.
 It will be remembered that the majority in the legislature last spring in presenting a memorial to the sen ate, protesting against Judge Sloan's confirmation expressly stated that the matter was not political and that the memorial was not a partisan eX- pression It was a decent statement though it did not conceal the partisan character of the memorial. The plat form plank lets the cat wholly out of the bag.
 Another reason why it was foolish to insert this plank is that it. does not represent the best democratic sen timent in the state We do not be- lieve it represents the sentiment of a majority of the members of the party council It represents the sentiment of the extreme radical element of the party which is now plainly in the minority. That was first shown by the advisory election last June of Reese M Ling as democratic national committeeman at the end of a cam paign in which his friendliness to Judge Sloan became a clear cut issue.
 The ascendancy of the conservative element was shown again in the or ganiZation of the democratic county and state committees at the end of a well defined struggle between the conservatives and the radicals.
 As we have said the anti-Sloan plank did not represent the senti- ments of the majority. It was a concession to the defeated and hu- initiated radicals. Almost any other concession could have been more profitably made.
