Bribery in the United States Senate

The June issue of the "Cosmopolitan" declares that the re-election of Isaac Stevenson, of Wisconsin, to the United States Senate, cost him $11,385.49, and declares that another investigation will have to be undertaken in his case. It was thought that expense like that would indicate that money was used dishonestly to purchase the seat. This is another item to show how the tendency of the world is downward. It is quite a serious question whether, if there were no laws against bribery, bribery would not be far more widespread than now.
