BULLY BYiNUM AT I1IS BEST
Abetted by James E. McCulIongb, Do
Tries to Incite a Riot at the Tolls,
And Pours a Torrent of Profanity and Vulvar
Aluse I pon a Jlan Yho Y Performing Ilia
Duty as ft Sworn Officer of tho Law.
In 1688, through the votes of insane per
sons, idiots, and imbeciles in nrecinct Nd.
4, Wayne township, the county of Marion
went for urover Cleveland. This reform
movement was managed by Smith Will
iams, superintendent of the poor-house,
who had these county charges vote the
Democratic ticket It will be remembered
that Williams was brought before Judge
Woods, of the United States Court, and
fined for voting idiots following that elec
tion. Recently the mismanagement of the
poor-house has been so notoriously bad
that the County Commissioners were forced
to demand the resignation of Williams.
Tho indiscretions of his son with female
paupers was also a factor in bringing about
this demand. Through the plead
ings of Democratic politicians that no
one but Williams could manage
tbe pauper vote he was suflered to remain
until after the election-, A few nights ago
Williams, in a speech at Haughville, de
clared that he was a Democrat, and that he
intended to vote tho paupers in his charge
for the ticket of his party. Knowing the
unscrupulousness of this man at the polls,
the Republicans took measures to see that
there should not be a repetition of the out
rages of two years ago. It was recognized
that some paupers were entitled to vote,
aud such Votes were yesterday allowed
to go unquestioned. The attempt to
vote an idiot or imbecile brought a
prompt challenge. It was following such a
challenge yesterday afternoon that Smith
Williams came up and made an affidavit as
a freeholder to support the pauper's vote.
Upon this he was promptly arrested by
David Powell, a Deputy United States
marshal, one of the regular force. Wm. D.
iiynum, Democratic candidate for re-election
to Congress, and James K. McCul
lough, Democratio candidate for State
Representative, who had been sent for as
legal advisers, arrived before Deputy
Marshal Powell could remove his prisoner
from the ground. They were livid with
rage and declaiming against tbe usurpa
tion of the government, and the illegality
of the arrest came near starting a riot.
Deputy Marshal Powell was . ar
rested by a Democratic constable
on a charge' of intimidating voters.
He was released on bond. lie held fast to
his prisoner, and brought him to the city
where Williams was released on his own
recognizance. It is thought that' this
prompt arrest of Williams had the effect of
excluding no fewer than eighty strictly il
legal votes.
Those who witnessed the scene at the
poor-house precinct, now No. 6 Wayne
township, as it is callod, pronounce it the
most disgraceful all air that has ever oc
curred in this county. "I went out to
Smith Williams's precinct." said Mr. R. O.
Alarkins, who was giving his experience
to a number of gentlemen last night, "at 2
o'clock this afternoon. On my way out, go
ing in a buggy, 'I was passed by Mr.
Rynum, Goose Eden, McCullough, Joe Fan
ning and four other persons in a procession
of buggies. The drivers were lashing their
horses, and evidently were in great haste.
When I got out at the poll my eves rested
upon a strange sight. Smith Williams had
brought down his panpers, idiots and in
sane people from the poor-farm, the same
class that he voted there two years ago.
Many of them were perched upon the fences,
enjoying the sunshine. It was a shameful
sight to see these miserable beings brought
out for political use. Mr. Rynum, Goose
Eden, 'Cockey Shea, Mr. McCullough and
others, who had come out with them, were
standing at the end of the chute, fifty
feet from the poll. Williams, who had
before this been notified that these
people were not legal voters, had,
it seems, sent word to the city
and these politicians had come out. When
Mr. Rynum arrived there, Williams took
one of the paupers and swore in his vote,
making tbe necessary affidavits. There
upon, the United States supervisor in
structed Deputy Marshal Powell, who had
been sent out in the morning, to arrest
Williams.
"This Mr. Powell did," continued Mr.
Hawkins. "Be walked Williams out to
the end of the chnte. There the deputy
marshal and his prisoner were met by
Rynum and McCullough and the persons
who were with them. Rynum and McCul
lough demanded to know'of Powell who he
was. He told them he was a United States
officer. They demanded lo see his author
ity, and Powell showed his commission.
Rynum and McCullough both asked what
he was coing to do. He said he bad ar
rested this man and was going to take him
to the city.
You are a G d liar,' shouted Ry
num, who was pale with anger." You are
not going to take him. Neither you nor
any other G d United States mar
shal can arrest that man and take him
away. I'm not afraid of . any G d
United States marsbal that, was ever made;
I'm a bixger man than any United States
marshal.7"
This man, who disgraces the people of
the Seventh Indiana district by being al
lowed to represent them in CongTess, then
turned to the men who had come out with
him, tho account was further given,
and said: "Come here and pre
vent this man from being arrested."
At this McCullough shook his fist under
Powell's nose and called him "a G d low
lived dead beat," and "a Gd scoundrel."
"If Rynum and McCullough called Powell
a 'G d loafer " said Mr. Hawkins, "and
a G - d dead beat,' and like epithets,
once, they aid fifty times. Powell was try
ing to advance with his prisoner, saying he
wns iioing to take him, but Rynum and Mc
Cullough asked who had sworn him in as
United States marshal, and Powell said
Judge Woods.' Then McCullough said:
Woods is a G d political loafer.'
Powell kept pushing on with his
man to get througn the crowd. Rynum
then asked 'Where are these deputy sheriffs
that came out here? I want tbem to see
that this man is not taken away from here.'
At this, Williams threw up his hands and
said, 'Hold up, gentlemen; Pve been ar
rested: I don't want to get into any tronble
here; Pin willing to go.' Rynum turned to
Williams and said: G d you, jou
shall not bo; G d your soul, go back
there and swear every one of those men in.'
"Williams said: M am willing to swear
them in if they will let me.1 Powell said,
No, sir, you can't go back; I have arrest
ed you. You'll have to go with . me.
Rynum, even more violently excited than
before, shouted, No, he isn't going away
from here; ho won't go a step, you G
d son ; yon can't take him
away from here.' Well, the language
was simplv tho worst I ever heard. Pow
ell turned to ibe men wbo bad come
with Rynnm. Goose Eden and McCullough.
and said, 'Gentlemen. I am a llni ted States
marshal, and I've arrested this man. If
you interfere with me yon will get into
trouble. I call on you gentlemen to assist
me in getting this man away.' At this
they all jeered, laughed and crowded
around Powell. Rynum and Powell stood
in front with others backing tbem. and
whichever way Powell turned with his
prisoner they would gt before him and
obstruct his way. Williams as .well as
Powell pleaded with tbe crowd to let them
through, but they refused. At that point
1 left to ao to the city to notify the United
States Marshal what was going on.
Unce when Iiynum was shaking his fist
under Powell's nose," continued Mr.
Hawkins.V'and calling him a G d
loafer and like foul-mouthed epithets,
Powell turned and said, 'Why, Rynum,
you must think you are talking to
Speaker Reed.' Thin caused quite a
laugh. Even Goose Eden laughed at that.
Rynum retorted. Well, I can talk to yon,
or Speaker Reed, or any G d man
who lives.' It was. all things considered,
tht most disgraceful thing I ever saw. This
took place at a farm-house, out in tho coun
try, about a mile from tbe poor-farm. Most
of the voters ousido the idiots, imbeciles
and insane persons were honest farming
people. It must have given them a new
idcn of fttatewnifu. Th fact that Rvnum
and McCullough, who went out to bulldoze
tho United Mates marshal and prevent any
impediment from being placed in tae way
of voting tbe paupers was plain to every
one. That this effort came to nothing is
due entirely to the firmness of United
States Marshal Powell."
It is not unlikely that Mr. Rynum will
be arrested on n charge of resisting a
United States officer, and that the same
steps will be taken in tho case of McCul
lough. There was an auimatcd discussion
late yesterday afternoon among lawyers
of the offense committed by these men in
their foul abuse of Judge "Woods. Mr. W.
P. Fisbback expressed the opiuion that the
matter should be investigated, and if they
used the language attributed to them they
should, as lawyers, be disbarred.
