Mr. Justice Rose said that if it were granted that Mr. GaITOW and the loeal organization did not know of corrupt practices, "then it must be that the Moneys which were illegally and im- properly expended were supplied by outsiders who sent their agents into the riding and interfered with the manageMen e of the election."
