Dr. J. N. TaJbott and Charles McKinsey, wlw were arrested for election frauds, were acquitted at their trial In Indianapolis, this week. The whole thing Beeina to be a farce, and it matters not what a man has done. We do not •say that either Talbott or McKinsey were guilty -of any intent to do wrong, but the statement that young Keller wade, is quite interesting. He says he had a great time when he went to Indianapolis to testify before the grand jary^ and got so drunk that he did not know what ho was doing, and did not know what lie testified to, and now his evidence was thai after he had -voted, in the evenjug he asked Charley McKinsey to get him some money as he was hard up aud thought' therepublicanssureiy had some campaign fund. McKinsey made up a collection among tiie brethren, and secured §15 for him, donating as the Sentinel says, out of the fullness of Jiis heart himself. This story sounds awful tame, and while we do not like to see any one convicted, we would want a more plain acquittal if we wero tlie defendants in this case. The idea of Charley McKinsey donating $15! People of Jtipley come over and help us laugh.
