Fully five hundred voters wereiablt
gathered at the court house last the
night in response to me can oi me
Committee of Fifteen, to organize a
Puro llaliot League in Cairo, and It

city.

There were probably 4o0

enthusiasm there wu also evident
t.iyre than ordinary earntstiuss it

scnee of all sign of a disposition to
..peak lightly then- wasn't any tell
in of funny stories and no laughter,
bur muct hearty applause as the
sjk ii kers presented some of the evi s
nought to be corrected and voiced a
.letermination to correct them.
Hon. M. F. Gilbert called the meet
ing to order and said the committee
of Fifteen had suggested V. H.
lluette us temporary 'chairman-. Mr.
Ilcette was accepted by the as
semblage and Prof. T. C. Clendenen
wns chosen secretary, Prof. Iiannis
ti t tn-asi rer.
Chairman Huette made a ringing
little speech setting forth the pur
p;es of the meeting and the need of
thx organization propose.! to be
termed. He expressed the belief that
tlve people of Cairo were ready to
take action In the mutter. Some aaid
It would be impossible to check the
election frauds but he believed It
cenl.i be done, and the colored voters
Wffo going to help In the movement.
Mr Huette grew eloquent when he
appealed to the latter, referring to
tie- five thousand graves at Mound
CHjv National .'cemetery, where lay
thai many men who had left stricken
hearts at home to fight for their
country and for the negro's freedom
the rivers of blood hit I ad flowed
and the mountains of money it had
cost, to gain this end. He asked
what these five thousand men would
say if they were told that all thdr
sacrifice were made only in order
that the negro might hawk his bal
lot about the streets on election day.
He did not believe the negroes pres
ent would stand for that state of
tblns but wonld help to the extent!
of their ability to correct the evils
coin pla ined of. There were shouts of
apj roval from the negroes present.
lion. Walter Warder said he was
present becarse he wished to lie with
th; uheep and not with the goats,
win never there w as any chance for
it,' and this movement certainly c;ii
bivced the sheep, and he wished to
have his name on the list. He be
lieved the Illegitimate spending of
money waa the greatest evil: any
evils in the registration or in the
counting of votes could be easily
reached by the appointment of good
men as election judges and clerks,
and by agreement between the two
pclitlcat organizations; but the buy
ing of votes was the greater evil and
was more difficult to reach. Or
ganization whs net ess a ry to reach)
ibis. .Mr. Warder expressed himself j
In full sympathy with the move
ment. Douglas Ha'liday said he would do
Whatever he cou'd to help the move

election evils'. The primary election

Walter H. Wood, chairman cf the
li( Pfblican county central commit tea
and one cf the committee of fifteen,
assured the? meeting that the charge
i:.:;de by some people that tie? move
ment was started by people who had
axes to grind was untrue. Not a
member of the committee was a can
didate for any office; so far as he
km w not a in.n connected with the
movement had any purpose except to
correct the election evils that had
been complained of. It cost too
much money to run for office In
Cairo. He relt that to reach th? evil
would be "a treinou.lous job," and if
the good people were not any mote
active than they were at elections
they would not succeed. One great
trouble had been that so few citizens
lock any interest in their elections.
There were never more than three or
fcur In each ward who would give
any time to the elections.
At this point Chairman Huette in
terrupted t lie speaker with a call to
ail who were willing to give one day
to election work to stand up. Every
one rose
Mr. Wood continuing said if citi
zens took more interest in their elec
tions there would be less corruption.
Tin re were no men more afraid of
going to the penitentiary than the
politicians, and if they knew they
w re being watched, they would be
careful. He knew bad things had
hi en done by the Kepulicans, nut uie
other fellows had not been awleep.
Five hundred negroes had gone to
the polls and sworn they cotna not
read or write and permitted the judge
to n aik their tickets for them. They
knew they were swearing a ".1 d
lie- when they did this. Laughter
and applausel. He felt sure he could
h eak for the Republican organiza
tion and say they would aid in the
movement as far as possible. He
hoped the movement would not be
perniitted to die.
.1 S. Aisthorpe made a fervent lit
tl. speech heartily endorsing the
movement. He said it made no dif
fcinice if other cities were bad also,
or wotse; we had to act for our
selves We wanted to be assured
that our candidates for office will be
elected by the people, not by ihe cor
rt! tlenists. U could not be expected
that officials should be honest if they
had to spend three or four times as
much as a-i office was worth In order
t i get it. White people were to

London, Nov. 17. The approaching;
visit to this country cf Patrick Ford.,
t editor of the. Irish World of New
(York and O'Meaghor
Condon was the
occasion of an extraordinary at tack
in the house of commons this after
noon. James Craig, rnlonist member
from the eastern division of Down
opened the fight by nuking Premier
Asriuitli if he was aware that Mr.
Fcrd, who had been declared by three ;
bulges to he a known advocate of th
t bp of dynamite, and Mr. Condon,
who had been sentenced, to death for
the murder ol' an English policeman,
intended visiting this country. j
Mr. Craig asked also whether li .
censes perniitted them to do so, and,,
if not, what action the executive pro-;
posed to take. i
Earl Winton, Conservative, followed
this up with a reference to the find
ing of the Parnell commission by ask- j
ing whether "any steps had been ta!:-j
en to prevent these well known atJ-!
tutor from coming lo this country."!
Heme Secretary Gluds'.cne answer
ed Earl Winton in these words:
Condon Was Pardoned.
"I am no aware cf the intentioi.s
of these persons. Neither of them is
the holder cf a license."
.John Redmond immediately .jumpe I
to his feet and hotly appealed to the
speaker. One of the persons men
tioned, he informed the speaker, wuh
an official of the American govern
ment, and it was incredible that such
epithets were permitted lo be applied
to a high official, who has beon In the
servite cf the Cnited States for twen
ty years.
The speaker agreed that if th-
statements In question were true thevZnw .,,
ought net to appear. Mr. Craig offered
to send Mr. Redmond prof's of th .s
truth cf the facts stated in his tpies.
lion. Mr. CladMone, n cognizing the
insufficiency of his first reply, supple
mented it with the following state
ment :
"Mr. Ford, so far as I know, ha.t
not been convicted of any criminal
cflense in this country; as regards
Mr. Condon, a royal pardon, under tin
great steal, was 'given him in 1S7S.''

Woodward has already served two
