\ Scotch Verdict

TRUMAN II. NEWBERRY was elected to
the United States Senate from Michi-
gan through Il prodgal expenditure OF
money. In all human probability he could
not have been either nominated or elected
by any other means. His title TO q; seat in
the highest legislative body was chal-
lengcd on the ground that il was bought
and paid for contrary TO the spirit and letter
OF the law and contrary to ali political de-
cency and conscience. The Senate by lis
vote yesterday, virtually placed the brand
OF guilt upon him, condemning the lavish use
OF money with which his seat was bought,
yet it permitted him TO return to his place
in this body.
The Senator, his political fate in the bal
ances, rose in his place in the Senate and
answered for the first time The charges which
had been laid against him. charges which
first were preferred i'll court, thereafter be-
fore a Senate committee and lastly before
the Senate itself. Ills defense consisted
solely of ignorance on his part of the use
OF money in his behalf. He dared not con
done the outrageous OUTLAWS. He had not
the courage even to offer an apology for
the practices by which he profte-! All lie
could do, ana all that he did do. was fer
vcntly 10 swear that he knew nothing of
what was going on until il was too late

the receiver becomes guilty of crime. If he
receives it unknowimgiy he may escape prose
cuton and punishment perhaps, but he must
surrender the goods upon demand OF the
owner or of II court Of justice.
Morally if not legally, Truman H. New
berry has become the posscssOr of Il scat in
the Senate that was purchased in The open
market That seat is not literally stolen
goods. OF course, but there is barely shade
of difference. in the minds of millions of
American people Ii il was wrong for his
family and his friends to spend an almost
unprecedented sum of money to accomplish
his election, ii is wrong for him to hold

berry may not undo the crime that was COM
mittcd i'll his name, but he may give IN that
which he was not entitled To receive.
If Mr.. Ncwbcrry wishes to do the manly
thing, he Will resign at once. He will hand
back to the people Of Michigan the commits
sion for which the money OF his family paid
lie Will then announce his candidacy for
election to the vacancy and allow his fellow
citizens to pass once for all upon his con
duet II he should be reelected under such
circumstances, the whole world would ac-
cord him vndication. There is no other
way i'll which he can gain it,
