1> I.OllM CROOKCI)
If you Will compare the vote of West
Virginia in 1K9U. when the Democratic
party won easily, with that cast in the
I..te * lection, you will set* that, while
tii- Democratic vote fell off. the loss
v\, s i >t great but that the ^ain iu the
It. publican vote was enormous.
This is significant.
l ake Ohio county, for example. The
gain in the vote was l.i»00. This would
i- 1 cate a gain in population (accord
ing to the accepted ratio of one voter
to five of population) of 7.500 in four
years.
\'o intcIH-ent mar be! - v- s that our
po' !’.<■ a has increased that much, or
Uie h-.i. cr the quarter of :u There Is
nothing whatever to show it. There
is fraud on the face of it.
Where did this increased vote come
from0 Did it come from the same
sources that rolled up such an enor
mous vote for the Ohio county ring
candidates at the last Republican pri
maries?
What Is true of Ohio county is true
of every county in the State. x\nd the
fraud was probobly greater in the
counties outside of the \\ heeling dis
trict than in this county, because the
facilities were less for detecting fraud.
The gold men had unlimited money
at their command. And money will
do pretty nearly everything except take
you to heaven. The Republican com
mittee had more money than they knew
what to do with, and corruption was
their chief card.
They played that card well, for it is
impossible t explain the enormously
increased Republican vote, in view of
the very slightly reduced Democratic
vote, on any other ground than fraud.
Taking the voting in the last Pres
idential election and allowing the nor
mal increase, trimming the vote down
to normal proportions, in view of the
Democratic ie cast the Democrats
would have won in the county and in
the State. For example. Irwin was
beaten for Sheriff by only about 400
votes in the county. The increased
v U* in the county was 1.500. at least
three-fourths of which could not be
legitimate. It is estimated that Mr.
Irwin received at least 500 Republican
votes. The Democratic vote was, as
1 we have pointed out. about as usual,
and would have elected Irwin by
about 200 had the vote been legitimate
on the other side.
In this connection it is to bo noted
that the remarkable increase is most
remarkable in Republican districts.

STILI*-LYIN<}.
The Intelligencer hasn’t stopped its
1 dirty work, although the campaign is
! over ami everybody has settled down
to the usual routine of life.
It makes the charge that the Regis
ter "faked” up news in order to influ
, enc< betting, a charge which the Intel
ligence r knows to be a falsehood made
! by it out of the whole cloth,
i The P 'gister published not a word
| in disnatch or bulletin that did not
:'come over either the long distance tel
ephone. the Western Union bulletin
wire or the Associated Press. The In
telligencer got the news at the same
time.
If there was any “faking” done,
whatever, the Intelligencer did it. for
| the R. .iso r had in a bulletin conceded
West Virginia to the Republicans while
! the intelligencer yet had up on its win
dow a claim that the State had gone
Democratic. I he Intelligencer may
hu\e been, as usual, behind hand in its
news from the State, but it looked
, oer. lu fac*. the Intelligencer’s ab
solut ly false and absurd charge
against the Register in this matter
l looks like another case of the howl of
"stop thief!”
In answer to numerous queries be
fore the election we advised inquirers,
who wanted to bet. not to do so. And
in giving the returns, the Register, as
we hav ■ said, conceded West Virginia
before the Intelligencer claimed it.
Our mendacious neighbor knows this.
Then wha does it mean by giving out
such a bald lie?
ONE OF THEIR TRICKS.
Money will do a good deal. Among
other things, it will bribe voters, es
pecially when the single gold standard
h s r* lueed those voters to the verge
of starvation.
But we are asked, how was it pos
siMe for the Hanna people to bribe
any one with certainty under the se
cret ballot system?
It was easy. And coercion was easy.
It was a simple matter for the employ
er to ascertain to a certainty how his
employes voted.
Here was one method and the favor
ite with the bribers and coercionists:
To get by hook or crook an official bal
lot. To forge the poll clerks’ names
on that ballot was an easy matter. The
voter to be bribed or coerced was given
this ballot already marked and this
ballot he was to vote, delivering to the
briber or coercer the blank ballot he
received from the poll clerk when he
went into the polling place. This \
I blank ballot contained the regular sig
! natures of the poll clerks and was
. veil to the ne\t voter, who In turn
i was i bring back the blank ballot as
| m evidence that ho had voted ns the
corruptionists wished him to vote. It
I was a slick scheme and one not hard
I to work. |
-o
Just before the Chicago convention
' i? will b* remembered that the Repub
licans said we <mid not get any one
to run for President. Then after Bry
an s nomination, they said he wouldn’t
carry a State in the I'nion. Rut he has
come pretty near carrying enough to
give him a majority in the electoral
colb just the same, although be bat
ti* >1 almost single handed against such
odds and money as no candidate ever
fought against.
—■ ■ cv
io«* mi cii roi.iru s
I* would lie a desirable change in our
political system if we would make the
term of rhe President six instead of
four years.
As it is uow. one campaign is scarce
lv off until another is on. It keeps us
m’king politics from one year’s end to
the other, it keeps us in a continual
turmoil of partisan discussion that is
not a good thing from any point of
view. It is particularly bad for busi
ness. which it is a serious matter to
disturb every four years as a political
campaign disturbs it.
This is a government by the people,
and political agitation ought not to
h**' c tii is effect ou the business com mu
nity. But the fact remains that it does
have that effect, and that it entails a
serious periodical loss on the business
community, and in a greater or less
degree upon the whole people.
There is another point in our elect
oral system that might be improved
upon, and that is the system of elect
ing the President by the electoral votes
of the States instead of the popular
vote.
If a majority of the people elect the
President, why not let the majority
of the people do it? As it is now, a
majority of the people may cast their
votes for one candidate, while the
electoral college casts its vote for the
other, and that is not distinctly popu
lar government.
-o
We have it from pretty good author
ity that Chairman William M. O. Daw
son. who so ably managed the late cam
paign in this State for the Republicans,
is to lie made Secretary of State. We
hope so, for while Mr. Dawson is an
uncompromising Republican, he is fair
and square in all his dealings and has
always been an opponent whom we
could sincerely honor. Governor At
kinson could not make a better ap
pointment, or one more popular in and
out of the Republican party.
Money unlimited was spent to defeat
Bryan. He had nothing against it but
his own tremendous power and
strength. Fraud and bribery and co
ercion were rampant in every State.
The allied forces of Plutocracy were
desperate and stopped at nothing. And,
still, with all these forces against him
—unlimited money and all that that
means—it was not dead certain sure
yesterday that they had beaten him.
He should go down in history as
Bryan, the Magnificent. No other can
didate over made such a mighty fight
against such tremendous odds, and !
came so near winning that there was an
element of doubt about it even three
days after the election.
Well, Chairman Jones concedes it.
So, now let us watch out for that pros
perity that the “advance agent” is to
bring so thick and fast.
If it hadn't been for their unlimited
boodle we would have whipped them
easily in State and nation.
MIGHTY CLOSE CUTTING.
Republicans Now Claim Kentucky By
Only GOO to 1,000, and Not Assured of
That.
Louisville, Ky„ November 5.—To
M. E. Stone, General Manager Associ
ated Press:
On the face of complete unofficial re
turns from all but 'three mountain*
counties, Bryan leads by 1,544. The
votes of these three counties gave Gov
ernor Bradley 1.S64 majority and have
been counted on for considerably in
creased Republican majorities. Ono
precinct in one of these counties has
just reported loO increased Republican
majority. We believe we have carried
Kentucky for McKinley by 600 to 1.000.
SAM J. ROBERTS. Chairman.
LOUISVILLE. Ky., November 5.—7:30
p. m.—Corrected returns just received.
Bryan receives 404 more votes in Calloway
county, and Hardin county 633 more for
Bryan. However, the Republicans still
claim the State will go for McKinley by
4TS.

Still at Work. Though He Has Lost Much
of That Supreme Confidence and Nerve
That He Displayed Before the Election.
New York, November 5.—M. A. Han
na, chairman of the Republican Na
tional Committee, gave out the follow
ing statement at 2 p. m. to-day:
"Sufficient returns have been receiv
ed to satisfy me that the following
States have been carried for McKinley
and Hobart, without a doubt:
"California, 9; Connecticut, 6; Dela
ware. 3: Illinois. 24; Indiana, 15; Iowa.
13: Maine, 6; Maryland, 8: Massachu
setts. 15; Minnesota. 9; Michigan, 14;
North Dakota, 3; New Hampshire, 1;
New Jersey, 10; New York, 36; Ohio,
23; Oregon, 4 ; Pennsylvania, 32; Rhode
Island, 4;’ South Dakota. 4; Vermont,
4- West Virginia. 6: Wisconsin, 12;
Wyoming, 1. Total, 265. which in
sures the election by a majority of 81
in the electoral college if every other i
electoral vote goes against us.
"Another most significant feature of
this victory is in the fact that McKinley
and Hobart's election has been secured
by a plurality of over 1.000,000 of the
popular vote—the largest ever given.
"I am confident that we shall secure
the other fwo electors in Wyoming and
the thirteen in Kentucky. That North
Carolina (eleven votes) Is in doubt.
“The importance to the country of
this result cannot be over-estimated
and is a matter of congratulation to
all loyal and patriotic citizens of the
United States. Incendiary utterances
and pretended claims which question
the accuracy of this statement should
not disturb the public mind.
(Signed.) “M. A. HANNA,
“Chairman.”

People Still Wondering Where That
Big County Vote Came From.
Over Five Thousand Sturdy
Democrats Still in Line in Ohio
County — The Register Salutes
Them—Republican Election Offi
cers Numbered Ballots, in Viola
tion of Law—Gossip About Com
ing Republican Appointments
Various Facts, Figures and Inci* i
dents.
A good many people were wondering,
yesterday, where the phenomenal total ;
vote of Ohio eounty came from.
More than 11,950 votes were cast in the ’
county, adding nil the scattering figures to
the votes registered for the three party ,
tickets, which is over fifteen hundred J
more than were ever cast before.
These fifteen hundred votes represent an <
increase ia the population of 7.500, and no j
sane man will say that has occurred, la
Madison district alone the increase in the |
total vote over four years ago was about ,
three hundred, representing an increase!
in population of 1,500. In four /ears there ,
has possibly been an Increase in the popu
lation of the Seventh ward of 300. but
there are probably not fifty more people :
In the Second ward than there were four j
years ago. Where did those voters com. j
from? 1
in Ritchie the total vote for President J
four years ago was 1.34t*. Tuesday It was !
1,643, an increase of 300. This again repre
sents an increase of 1,500 in the population i
of the Eighth ward, in four years. No- I
body in Wheeling believes that the Eighth j
ward has increased even four hundred in '
four years. Other districts under Reptib- 1
lican management show heavy gains. In 1
plain language, it looks very much as ;
though non-resident voters had been
brought here and each voted at several
precincts under different names, for the |
Republican ticket. The big increase in the :
vote can’t be reasonably accounted for in
any other way.
Another thought in this lino: Tho total
Republican vote in the county, cast Tues
day, was just about, in round numbers.,
what was polled at the Republican pri
mary. last Anri!. The difference is ineon- ;
sequential. Everybody who knows any- i
thing about Ohio county polities knows
and believes that the Republican primary
election was a bald-headed fraud, to the
extent of I.OM votes, at least. Hundreds I
of Republicans did not vote at that pri
mary. while hundreds of Democrats, non
residents and minors did vote, and not
only that, but repeated. Yet the Republi
can Presidential vote was about up to the
fraudulent primary vote. Where did the ;
Increase come from? There are not twelve
thousand legal voters in Ohio county. If'
there were, we would have a population ,
in the county of very close to 60,000.
We haven't anything near it. and never i
had. There is some food for thought. |
and perhaps for investigation, in these j
few lines.
When the returns from the prccinets of
this county were read off to the newspa- •
per men. at the Court House, election
night, then' was an omission of eight votes
for Palmer and Ruekner in the fifth pro- i
cinet of Washington distriet. An inspec- '
tion of the certificate yesterday showed j
that these eight votes were east and
counted, along with one Prohibition vote, j
and they should be credited.
Tn tho hurry of footing up the Register
table of the vote of Ohio county, an error
of addition in the vote of Mr. John A.
White, caused him to bo only Riven credit
in the grand total for 4.S41 votes, whereas
tho total was really 5,041 votes. The
figures were printed all right by precincts,
and a glance showed the error of addition.
Mr. White polled 25 more votes than Bry
an in Ohio county.
The politicians are already busy with
the appointments of the Republican coun
ty ofHeers-elect. It is persistently stated
that William McCormack will he the first
Deputy Sheriff under Sheriff Richards, and
that Councilman Herman Zwickor will also
have a place on tho force. These reports
were denied before the election, but it Is
insisted they are true. It is said that City
Clerk Dannenborg will l"1 deputy clerk in
the office of County Clerk Robertson, and
that Charley Watkins and Wm. Stein
becker. of the Eighth ward, will become
rival Republican candidates for City
Clerk. Several persons are named for
places under Circuit Clerk Henning, but
it Is Just possible that Clerk John Walton
will continue to have something to do with
the books and papers, out of deference to
the wishes of the attorneys. Clerk Moffat
will remain at his post as Cl^rk of the
Board of Commissioners, beyond a doubt.
The Board of Commissioners will can
vass the vote of the county next Mon
day.
This evening Sheriff-elect ftichards will
entertain the Six 7" nters at his r> sal a ■.
There is a dt tided disposition to re-organ
ize the Six Footers in permanent form.
Democrats are talking of nominating
W. W. Irwin for M tyor. He would make
a great run, and would he elected. Men
of all parties would vot' ter hipt.
Andy Stoetzer ha.- be.n added to the
list of Democratio candidates for Chief
cf Police. Messrs. McNichol. Shoots and
Stoetzer would make a lively prime.ly
election.
All honor to the r.,000 and more sturdy
Democrats of Ohio county. They nearly
held up to tluar total vote of four years
ago. notwithstanding the gold-bug defec
tion of over one hundred, and fought a
good tight. They stood shoulder to
shoulder, and will be right in line for the
next battle.
The following courteous interehango of
telegrams between General Watts and
■Governor Atkinson took place yesterday.
“CHARLESTON. W. Va.. Nov. 5, fif.
"Hon. George W. Atkinson, Wheeling,
W. Va.:
“Accept my conprattilatlons upon your
election us Oowrnor. «md I trust your ud
; mine t rat ion may be beneficial to the peo
ple of this State.
“C. C. WATTS.’*
To the above this reply was sent by the
Governor elect:
"WHEELING W. Va.. Nov. K. >>.
“General C. C. Watts. Charleston. W*. Va.:
wAccept my thanks for your courteous
telegram of congratulations o\er my elec
tion. You conducted an able, vigorous
and gentlemanly campaign, acquitting
yourself in an honor :tnd tnanly man
ner. which I and my friends fully appre
ei -cd. X will be the Governor of all the
people, and my ‘latch-string’ will always
be on the outside for you.
”G. \V. ATKINSON.”
A permanent Democratic Asso> iation
should he formed in Ohio county at once.
There are a good many of ns It ft, and
there are future fights to he made and vic
tories to be won. That's the way they
do ovt’r in Ohio. You can’t discourage an
Ohio Democrat by defl ating his party at
the polls. Close up the ranks.
The Republican election officers in a
number of Ohio county precincts num
bered the ballots before opening the. polls,
iu violation of law, which says there shall
he no distinctive mark upon the ballot.
The offense is a felony under the election
law.
A’good many election stories are being
told. One of the best, concerns a‘jovial
Irishman, who was naturalized a short
time before the election. He was very
enthusiastic about his first vote, and went
to the polls with very apparent joy. When
he came out, some of his friends, who
had awaited him. asked: “Well. Mike,
did you vote all right?" “Dom ,if Oi
didn't.” was the reply, “at\d Oi’ve got her
here!” and he produced a neatly folded
ballot from an Inside coat pocket. The
situation was explained to the new voter,
and he went back to the poll and the bal
lot was duly placed in the box.
Manager Tracy, of the Western T’nion,
maintained a splendid bulletin service
Tuesday night, for the distribution of elec
tion returns. Several hundred bulletins
were handled with despatch, and those
who took the service were more than
pleased. In many portions of the city the
situation in the various States was known
almost as soon as in the newspaper of
lices.
A number of local l)i moorats win money
oji Ohio, Kentucky and th<- majority for
Richards in this county. All the winners
do not belong to tin Republican side.
The local Republicans will hold their
jollification Saturday night, and arrange- j
merits are being made l'or an elaborate (
affair.
All the Indians are back on the reserva
tion. and the streets are once more qul t
ut night.
The Republicans on the South Side,
whose enthusiasm over the election
results could not be contained, gave
expression to their feelings in a way
that they thought would make their
Democratic neighbors as uncomforta
ble as possible. They were deeply
anxious that those on the losing side
should he impressed as much as possi
ble with the meaning of the result. A
strong Democrat in the Ei ;hth ward,
who had decorated his place of busi
ness last Saturday night in honor of
the Democratic demonstration, al
lowed his decorations to remain.
Tuesday night notwithstanding the
bad news coming in. the Democrats
still displayed his colors, ilis place
became the object of much attention
on the part of Republicans who
abound in his neighborhood and about
midnight about a hundred and fifty
men, women and children appeared on
the opposite side of the street and
made the air deafening with their
noise. Later in tin- uight giant fire
crackers were exploded with a tremen
dous racket in front of his residence
and every effort was made to make his
life miserable.
Salt River rickets w re being sold by
small boys on ifie streets yesterday.
There have been some unique designs.
The contests on the county ticket in
several districts were exceedingly close.
Hare defeated Voilinger, for Commis
sioner. in Centr ■, by a narrow margin,
after a very hard fight. Bryan carried
Centre by one vote. Hess defeated
Whyte, in Webster, by four votes, for
Commissioner.
Democrats started to pay their elec
tion bets yesterday. A bet was made
by George .Myers and his broth r. of the
Eighth ward, one of whom is a Repub
lican and the other a Democrat. The
loser was to haul his brother in a
vehicle from Thirty-eighth street t i
Tenth and back. Til- bet was fulfilled
last night. Preceded by a drum corps
and follow, d by a crowd of over a hun
dred. the loser pushed his brother in a
•hand cart over the route prescribed.
The spirit of th Democracy of Bur
lington. a free silver stronghold above
Martin’s Ferry, has not died out by any
means. This township gave Bryan a
majority 0f TO votes. Defeat over there
has only made the D mocrats stronger
an 1 more determined to win in succes
sive campaigns. Last night the Demo
crats of Burlington held a rousing
meeting and enthusiastically endorsed
Bryan and fre-’ silver for 1900. rAhe
voters over the river are fighting for
principle, and will allow no temporary
set-back to discourage them.
LOW RATES TO MICHIGAN.
The Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway
will run its usual annual excursion to
many Michigan points on Tuesday, No
vember 10th. The rates will bo only
me fare for the round trip. The tickets
wVt be good for thirty days, affording
ample lime to enjoy the splendid hunt
ing and fishing, for visiting friende and
