THE CONTEST.
The Scheme of the Smooth
Republicans.
LING GIVES IT ALL AWAY.
He Tells How "Dummies" were
Placed jn Line by the Repub
s llcans.
The taking of testimony in Ihe Lynoh-
Vandever contest was resumed before
Notary Owen yesterday, with the attor
neys .on both sides in attendance. The
first witness examined was R. A. Lint?,
Esq. This gentleman testified that he
was at the White House precinct all day
on election day. The Btring of voters
ran from 50 to 125. It took a man from
twenty to thirty-five minutes to vote
after getting in line. Voting was much
slower at the White Houso precinct
than at any other place. The majority
of the Board was Republican. The Re
publican challenger was n man named
Fred Short, and he challenged every
man whom he thought was a Democrat,
"I think I know his object, but there are
a good many things conneoted with this
mutter that I don't care to say anylhing
about. My position was such on tbat
day that I would prefer not to say very
much about it. lam a Democrat in
politics, but I was a little off on some of
tbe ticket that day.
Q Well, we don't ask you about
anybody so far as the election was oon
cerne 1 except Mr. Lynch. You say yeu
tbink you know his motives?
A. Well, I know a good deal about
it.
Q. Well, state what it was. 1
A, Well, I was in different company
than I usually run witb, and of course
there is a good many things on Ihe other '
side I don't suppose it is necessary to 1
say anything about no*. |
Q, Well, we are on this motive cow, 1
this challenger.
A. I didn't have any motive myself 1
in the matter, but then I was cognizant '
of what waa going on. I don't kuow '
tha it will affect me in any way, but if it [
do- s I limit know as I want to tell it. '
Q. Well, we don't want you to tell '
anything that will affect you at all. We 1
wont to know what you know that will c
affect others. 1
Biiug askeci whether he informed
people after the 2d of October that leg
istration had closed, he answered: "I
have very distinct recollection tbat per
sons asked mo directly, and lit it I was
inquire ot iliie tly— by that I mean n
tn n would cc me up und say that he had
another party he wanted to register, and
inquired of too wbeth- r ho oould register.
1 say I have quite a distinct recollection
thut there waa a number of those sort
of applications; but as there waa a great
many people running around me all the
time I don't rem tuber who they were,
but th- re w,.re a number of them I know
I uniformly stated to them that while
they could register at auy time, they
couldn't vote, they couldn't register fur
the purpose of voting iv November."
Mr. White said the fir.-t intimation he
had of the continu noe of registration
was on the 21st of O -tober, when he
saw a proof of the Brierly circular. "I
went to sen Mr, Dunsmoor some days
after that, as soon as it had become
known that the Democratic Committee
had notice of this new registration, und
I said t> him, in substance—l don't
know that I can repeat the exact con
versalion: 'When are you going to close
this registration?' I said: 'Now, you
have, after giving public notice all over
the county that your registration would
close on the 2d of O ■tober, clandestinely
informed tbe Republican Committee
that you turnM register voters if they
would present themselves, and print
their names on tbe Register at any time
up to the date which is mentioned in
that oircular, the '27th.' Aod I spoke
to him pretty vigorously I took Mr.
Charles Prager in with me, and I said:
'Now, I want to know whether you are
g nng to close this thing at the date
mentioned in thut notice or not,
or whether we are going to
have another postponement of it.'
Well, he hesitated; said he
didn't know positively wbat he would
do; th.it Judge Brnuson hid said they
could register up to the day. "Well,"
( said, "Now, I am going to know r ght
here before I go away," 'tha's
c -rtain, I propose to tiud out right hern
You have got no business to carry on
auy clandestine work of this kind. You
must let mo know. And," I said, "you
can afford to toll me right now. You
are a public i tlie! t. This is not a party
affair, this is a public affair. The public
have a right io know whether they can
voto or not after doing certain acts, aud
T demand right notv to know when you
are going to close thii thing up."
"Well," he aaye, "what do you say?
shall we close it at the end of this time?"
re-furring to the 27tli of October. I says,
"Yes; all rignt; let it be so understood "
Then he said, "Yes, it will ba so uuder
stood." Audi said, "There is to be no
other registration row, so far i.s print
ing the Register is conoerned?" Aud he
Slid, "No." Ami then I went away.
Tuat was »U tbe conversation I had with
him at thnt time. The e.bject of it is
apparent from what I said to bim. I
wanted 11 find out if there was going to
be auy registration after that date, or
any third supplement, or second supple
ment published.
Af'er that I had another con
e sat ion with bim on ano h.-r
topic I beard that ttere was com,
question as to tha acceptance by the
Couuty Clerk of the reiuros of the As
sessor; that be claimed that the As
sensor's deputies bad not filed
their official oaths, or qualified
properly before registering certain men,
and that for tbat reason be did not in
lend, he the Counly Clerk did not in
tend to place upon the Register the
names of any parties who were register
ed by the Deputy Assessors. I under
stood that be was not going to put any
of those parlies upon tho Register unless
it appeared that the appointment of the
Deputy who bad taken the name and en
rolled the voter—unless thi qualifica
tion appeared on the record in tbe
County Clerk's office. I went to see
him, and I talked to him in the Board of
Supervisors' room. I bad opened tbo
Political Code und showed him a provi m n
—1 have not looked at it since, I don't
think, but it is something to tbe
effect that tbe Assessor shall enroll the
electors in a certain way and shall make
a certain return with the affidavit to tbe
clerk, who shall thereupon put the
names upon the Register. I told bim
tbat if tbe Assessor returned these par
ties as having been properly enrolled,
that it was none of his business whether
the Assessor properly or improperly en
rolled ihem; that toat was no affiir of
bis, and that I thought that he ought to
put tbem on- I told him I wanted to
know what be was going to do about it.
Well, he looked at the Code with me,
and I told bim tbat I didn't tbink he
bad any judicial power in the matter, or
any right to go behind tbe mere state
ment of the A-aessor; tbat his
duties were purely ministerial.
Wei!, we discussed the matter some
what, aud I don't recollect tbe exact
words that Mr. Dunsmoor used, but he
left me fully satisfied that be was going
to put tbe names upon the register
And I went away, Aad, in fact, I was
so oontident abont it that I met Mr.
Hamilton, bis deputy, aud I made tbe
re nark to him that I was glad that
Charley, referring' to Dunsmoor, had de
termioed to put those names ou, because
it was a matter that was creatiug si me
feelii g, and so forth. And that was a
sort of subject for discussion, because ii
was pretty apparent that the action of
Mr. Dunsmoor was creatiug seme feel
ing, whioh ultimately did him a groat
deal of injury, no doubt. Then after
tbat I went and notified a good many
persons who were engaged in registia
A. Well, I was in a sort of oonfer
enca that day with tbe Republicans
down there—the workers; that is all. I
don't want to give the boys away.
Q. Well, who were you in conference
with?
A. got a little off; I got a
little mad at Hellman because I thought
he wanted to buiidose me into something
I didn't want to do, through somebody
else, and I kicked out on the treasury
ship a little, and in kicking out on thi
treasuryship a little I didn't kick out on
the Congressman, more than I could
help, ot curse.
Q. Who ivere you in conference
witb?
A. Well, there was Joe Manning and
Short and Mr. Hammell—young Ham
im II — andjMr. Gard a d a few mure.
Q. These all Republicans?
A. Yes eir.
Q. Well, sir, what occuned there?
A. Well, we bad a little side issue of
our own there.
Q. Well, what was it? Tell us all
about it.
A. Well, I don't know ai I will ever
want to run for office ngain, but I dun't
know as I like to tell it exactly.
Q. Well, we insist upon an answer.
A. Well, it was only—just the mat
tfr was that we tbougtit Uellimn was
gitting too many votes in there for
Broaded, and we wanted to kind of
head it off; tbat was all.
Q Well, how did you want to head
it off?
A, Well, the thing was—several
ways to head it off; and I was sort of in
the coun-els that day, because I wa
pretty anxious to beat Broaded, and I
wanted to do anything I pos-ibly could
legitimately to beat him. Aod in order
to do it, I could not do it by working
with my own party, so I had to go over
on the other side a little. I thought I
could do it more effectively that.way.
(j Well, what plans did you arrange
in that conference?
A, Well, I can't really call it a con
ference. We kind of got together on one 1
aide, and thought the Democrats were I
getting in too many vote*, aud somebody i
auggested that we obstruct tbe polls »
little, in other words that we—l had
nothing to do with tbat; they suggested
it.
Q. Well, who do you mean by
"they"?
A. Well, brother Joe. Manning and
some of the rest of the boys.
Q. Republicans?
A Yes, sir, they were Republicans.
Joe Manning. I don't know bow many
there was. There was a dozen them
probably, and one Democrat like my
self—a little off. That was Mr. Berry.
Q. What plan did you form to ob
■truot the voting?
A. It was not really to obstruct the
voting; it was—Well, I don't know;
they agreed upon a plan there among
themselves some way that there were it
lot of "stiffs" there, they called them,
and tramps, you know. You see they
bought them to get in the line and filled
the line up to keep other people from
voting.
Q. How many do yoa suppose were
employed that way ?
A. Well, I don't know I am sure;
pretty much all day—in tbe forenoon; it
was not bo bad in the afternoon. They
would go to tbe head and probably give
—for instance, the plan agreed upon was
to give a wrong name, a wrong number.
That would bother tbe judges and clerks
—conldu't find them; and they would
want to swear their name in, and that
would all take time. And then when
they were fired off the line they would
go in foot and get up ngain, sometimes
get up pretty near head, and dodge ont
and get in again, or get somewheres;
and all tbat took time.
Q Do yon know whether any of those
parties were paid money or not?
A. Well, I could not swear positively
that tbey got the money. Let me Bee—
of course lam under oath, —yes, I think
I do.
Q. How many were paid, do you
tbink?
A. Ob, well, maybe there was a balf
a dozen that Iwnow of of my own per
sonal knowledge, probably.
Q. Half a dozen. Do yon know bow
much money they got?
A. I think tbey got four bits apieoe
for standing iv tbe line.
Q Now, do yo= know who paid
tbem?
A. I don't think that it would.be fair
to answer tbat question.
Q Well, do yon know whether it
was Republicans or Democrats that paid
them?
A. Well, it was Republicans.
Q. Do you know whether that is a
precinot that usually carries a Democratic
or Republican majority?
A. Largely Democratic.
Q. How many men were in line at
tbe time the polls closed?
A. Well, I should judge from seven
tiou or enrollment; notified Mr. Bilder
rain. I told some persons who
were taking a great deal of inter
est ia it — I think Mr. Hamilton
here, who was very aotive abont n.l
those matters at tbe time—aod spoke, in
faot, to those who were mainly engaged
in looking these things up, telling them
that it was all right. Before I went to
Mr. Dunsmoor we had spoken about ihe
possibility of procuring a great numb r
of these people to be registered oyer
again in oase he objected to putting
their names ou. After be had left tbe
impression on my mind that he waa noi
going to refuse, that he would put them
on, I made no further effort, aud I don't
think anybody else did, to procure the
re-registration of any of these people,
anil f heard nothing of his contrary de
termination until just at the very eve of
the election, when it was too late to
make any efftOtive efforts to procure the
•e-registrution of the parties.
(j. Do you know the date that be
inuily determined that he would not
jjutthemon?
Witnes-i—My recollection is that it
was the day before election that I found
out about it, because we wont and pro
pared a complaint, some of us, after we
a certained the fact that Dunsmoor had
made up his mind not to register these
parties, and I tbink that that was the
first notice I had of it. That is my im.
pression. I know it was very late any
way—too late to do anything in the way
of re registration.
Q. During the campaign, Mr. White,
were y> v in and out of Mr. Dunsrnoor's
utfioe at all?
A. Ytfl, Sir, almost every day,
Q. Did Mr. Dunsmoor at any time
prior lo your conversation with him and
subsiciutntly to the publication cf the
Brierly manifesto, ever inform you thut
he intended to extend ths time for regis
tration?
A. No, he never did, and when I, in
the presence of Mr Prager accused him
o[ diing this thing clandestinely he
made a very slight excuse abut it. He
smd that Judge Brunson advised him
that it could be doni. And then I
a-ked him why he hadn't given notice o
it as be bad given public notice that
the registration would close on the 2I)
why he hadn't posted similar v. t cm up
announcing that it would be continued
until the 27th, and he seemed very much
obagrinrd and annoyed about it. He
. idn't any much by way of explanation.
Mr. White also testified to the crowd
ed condition of the White House pre
cinct and the slowness of the vote there.
A half dozen witnesses testified to the
number in line at the White House and
th • examination was adjourned until
Tuesday a' 10 a. m.
ty-tivo to n hundred; iv that neighbor
hood, aa near a* I oan approximate it
now,
CROSS-EXAMINATION.
Q. Did you see anybody get four
bits?
A. Ye«, air; one fellow would oome
up and they would give him enough to
no arouud.
Q. I aaked you if you saw anybody
getting four bits?
A. Yes, sir.
Q. For what?
A. To get tbe "dummies" in line.
Q. To get "dummies" in the line.
Did you see any "dummies" get four
bits?
A. Well, yes sir, in one instance I
saw one fellow. I tbink he said he bad
six "dummies" around the corner; he
got four bits for himself and for the
other six. I think it wus six be said.
Q. Who was the man that said he
had six "ilumm es."
A. I don't know what his name is.
He is one of those all-around fellows on
election day.
Q Yes sir. Who didjho get the four
bits from? —.-• trnWr W-
A, Well, 1 d n't want to tell. He
didn't get it from me, I will say; but I
don't want to tell who he got it from.
Mr. Campbell—That will do, sir.
HON. S. M. WHITB
Was the next withers called. He testi
fied to the fact that he was informed
and believed that registration woul-i
close on the 2d of last October. He
said "wherever I went I made it my
business to inquire around concerning
registration to see about how many
there were, as fur I could find out, my
way of thinking, that were not register
ed. Naturally I was interested in hav
ing all tbe Democralio voters reg
istered and accordingly I very
frequently made mention of the
necessi yof registering by tho 2d of
October, because I supposed aud it was
gmerally supposed that the registration
would fiually close at that time. In
- aot most of us thought it was the law
that it should close then,"
