There were ;o many implicated among the money .-hangers' during .that trial that to al­ low the Matthews case to be unravel­ ed would necessarily mean the men- lonlng of new names and a review it past history that cent chills up and town the backs of certain so-ealled ■reformers like shafts of lightning, ’ The cases ' against .Matthews have men nollied by Judge Kyle on the •ecommendation of the prosecutor who acid there was not sufficient evi- .tence for conviction. The Matthews case was no more a .’lagrant violation of the election Jaws ban was the policy adopted by cer- :ain reformers to gain the, election of -.heir constitutional delegate 'candidate ,ind the filing of as false a report as in expense account as any criminal _'ould devise.
