Indiana Politicians
in Jail.

The consumma ton of the Terre
Hante election frauds has been
reached by the conviction of the
mayor and other prominent offic-
ials OF the Indiana town. Their
indictment and trial is the first
undertaken by the Federal Offic-
ials Tor election frauds. This
action meets with the approval
OF the American people.
The election fraud has been far
too prevalent all over our coun-
try from Maine to California.
1t is good sign to see the guilty
brought to punishment. It's to
be feared, however. that 1t is
more a spasm OF virtue. rather
than true house cleaning"

While the law makes national

a bank to keep money idle. The
reason Seattle has such a large re,
