THE BRIBERS ARE BALKED. The Man Who Offers the Bribe Is Criminally Liable Even If the Goods Are Not Delivered. VIGILANCE WILL DEFEAT HANNA. If the silver men are vigilant Mark Hanna’s millions will hot be of much use in Indiana under th<- decision of the appellate court handed down Tuesday, Sept. 29. The use of money in campaigns for the purpose of influencing voters will practically be done away with, as the person unscrupulous enough to sell his vote can accept a proposition and then turn around and sue for and recover the statutory limitation, $llOO, from the man who attempts to debauch the ballot by purchasing his vote. Those who handle the money will be very careful not to pay $360 for votes, us they would be very expensive at this price. The decision of the appellate court, as written Ly JudgeHoss. was given in the case of Charles Thompson vs. the state on the part of John McKinney. The case waS sent from Knox to Gibson county on a change of vt-nu and there tried, and an appeal was taken to the appellate court from the decision of. the lower court. The parties to the suit live in Vinceunes and in the presidential election of 1892 Thompson attempted to influence McKinney to vote for the Republican candidates and offered him $5 to do so, or, if not to. vote for the Republican candidates to remain away from the polls. McKinney accepted the $5, but went to the polls and voted and then sued Thompson to recover S3OO. The action was brought for the xholation of Sec. 6325, Burn's R. S., 1894, to recover the penalty provided for its violation. We quote the law and resume of the case and finding below, and it will be found very interesting matter for all interested in the purity of the ballot: The Law. “That whoever hires or buys, directly or indirectly, or handles any money or other means, knowing the same is to be used, to induce, hire or buy any person to vote or refrain from voting any ticket or for any candidate for any office at any election held pursuant to law, or at any primary election or convention of any political party, then the person so offending in any one of the foregoing particulars, and all other persons aiding, abetting, counseling, encouraging or advising such acta, shall thereby become liable Jointly and severally to the person hired, bought or induced to vote or refrain from voting by the means above enumerated, in the sum of S3O<> and reasonable attorney’s fees for collecting the same in an action to be brought as hereinafter provided on the relation of the voter in wiiose favor the liability is created by this section.” Resume of the Case. McKinney, who was a duly qualified and legal voter at the general election held. in-. mi... election .day. ..went to., the proper Voting place to cast" his-vote but was approached by ThompsoiWuld paid #5 not to vote, but to go away and refrain from voting. Later he returned to the polls and voted and notwithstanding he failed to comply with his contract with Thompson he sued to recover the penalty. It was contended by counsel for Thompson that no recovery could be had unless it was shown iu addition to the fact that McKinney was hired by Thompson to refrain from voting, that he did not in fact cast a vote at the election: that if he was hired to go away from the polls and refrain from voting at the time he went there for that purpose, but subsequently returned then cast his vote, the statute was not violated;,that he did eventually cast his vote, no damage was done ami McKinney having lost no right could not recover under the statute. . -«j, Construing the statute the’eourt said: “The section of the statute under which this twtion was instituted defines a number of offenses, namely: (1), For hiring or buying any person, directly or 'indirectly, to vote any ticket or for any particular candidate; (2), for hiring or buying any pei'son, directly or indirectly. to refrain from voting any ticket or for any candidate; (3). for handling any money or other means, knowing the same is to be used to induce, hire or buy any person either to vote or to refrain from voting any ticket or for any candidate, aud (4), for aiding, abetting, counseling, encouraging or advising either the hiring or buying of a voter either to vote or refrain from voting any ticket, or for any candidate. Any person. therefore, w’ho hires or buys, directly or indirectly, a voter to vote for any ticket or for any particular candidate, or w'lio hires or buys such voter to refrain from Voting any ticket or for anV candidate, or who handles any money or other means to be used to induce, hire or buy any voter, either to vote or to refrain from voting any ticket or for any candidate, or who aids, abets, counsels, encourages or advisedeither the hiring or buying of a voter either to vote any particular ticket or for any particular candidate, or to refrain from voting any ticket or for any candidate, is liable under the provisions of said net. * * * The plain language of the act conveys to the ordinary mind that' the intention of the legislature was to punish the person who hires the voter either to vote or refrain from voting any ticket or for any candidate, whether the voter fulfills his part of the agreement or not. * * * “The offense charged does not consist in inducing the voter, by hiring him to vote or to refrain from voting a particular ticket or for or against a particular ouadidate, but it consists in the giving or Affrftftiucr to triva to tbo vntar

thing in consideration that he will or will not vote, and th", agreement qd the part of the voter tot to so ” The court further holds thnt<w’fien Thompson gave McKinney the .>> “to refrain from voting and the hitter copied the money, agreeing not to cast his vote, the hiring was completed,” • * * “the statute was violated and the right of iction aceraed. legislature in the use of .the word hire, in this act, did not have’ in contemplation its use with r’s 'renco to enforceable contracts, but havifi , in view an evil tp be corrected m u.io use of : t in its plainest and bro-uhst set s •. ior they declare that the person who, d redly or indirectly, hires a voter to vo'e or refrain from voting, etc., shall it- eorne liable to such voter in the sum rtt •? ,;)<). “The evid'-it: yarp<>s"of t lie legislature was not bn! .' to prevent parries from knowingly;entering into such Contracts, but also to pn-vt-.g . party from making, by any fc«bt ; . luge, trlbk or artifice, any contract or agr'‘>'in“iit which will prevent the other parry from voting any ticket or for iu- against any candidate. It is no less an offense under this statute to hire a voter to change his place of r sidence, and thus lose his vote, than to hire liim to remain away or to go away from the polls and not to vote. One who induces a voter, for a consideration, to change his residence at a time wh n to move will destroyjiis right to though thermal pur pse iuay not be understood by th 0 voter, if aon ■ fra’ the purpose of preventing his yo, troying his right to vote, as a i n all > r hers aiding, abetting, con'is")aig. . en.-oiiraging or advising such act:-., shall o • liable to the person thus lifted, as provided in such section.. “It is to be regretted that the necessities of the law require, in oirinS to compel an observance of its provisions, that one. of the parties to such an infamous contract should be made a beneficiary, but if it were not so it would be almost impossible to detect and punish the real criminal ”
