Editor Times: The acquittal Of
Governor jackson en- the bribery
charge does not mean that Jackson
was not guilty. The evidences Of
Ex-Governor McCray and his SON
in-law. william p Evans. James
Noel, d. c. Stephenson ell show
that Jackson is guilty Of bribery.
/ The jury no dCUb. would have
found him guilty. The court not
wanting the jury TO make a
mistake, took the case away from
them.
This condition leaves Jackson, We
think, guilty of bribery. The evil
dence stands undisputcd, except ty
his attorneys. VINO claim that Jack
son will prove himself clear Of this
crime as soon as he finds what
the State is going to DO with the
men who were indicted at the same
time. If he was guilty as charged
that was the case when he too, the

diana.
Under such conditions, no man
should be allowed to act longer as
oyerseer Of our good State. The
people of Indiana for the pest
years have been in bad company.
and if allowed to remain in such
company as Jackson, the bottom
will fall clear out Of our Constltu-
ton
If the Governor would desire to
redeem himself and his State from
a panic caused by the acts of him
self and the Republican party. let
him resign at once. and let US
elect Tom Adams, who has been a
great factor in showing uD the
recent scandalous conditions Of our
State under Republican rule.
The indianapolis Times also has
published much evidence which
has caused the conviction CT a

positions through the Ku-KluX

Perfume-dozens of different kinds of
expensive perfume-gave the effect of
burning incense. There's one of the
senses that opening nights at the
Metropolitan quicken nowadays more
than they used to-the sense Of smell.
