MORE ELECTION MYsTERI


The extreme coseness of the Presidential vote in H.
nois, where, no longer ago than last August the De-
mocratlc majority was decisive if not overwhelming,
naturally enough exctes attention and scrutiny in those
"diggngs. The result of cursory comparison OF
votes with the results of the which has Just been
completed, solves the mystery to great extent
There, in Ohio, there can be doubt, the great
changes in favor Of Whggery which have been brought
about, can be traced directly to and sysema
ss &c frauds upon the ballet boA-the vote being many
male residents az ascertaned by the which has
just been completed. The extent TO which these frauds
have been carried may be estimated from the following
statement in regard TO single county 1t comes from
Springfield correspondent of the Chicago Democrat,
under date of Nov &:
aYou have doubtless, heard the election ere
this. We are badly beaten in all this part OF the
State. The Federalists have increased their maJo-
rites immensely, particularly in this Congressional
DISTRICT where they will probably have majority oil
about three thousand votes. The causes OF this in
crease are part, nexplicabe. In every county, as
far as heard from, the Democrats have increased their
votes since the August election, and yet the Feds
have increased their maortes. Such - the case IN
this county. Van Buren, has received more votes IMAM
any Of candidates did in August and still the fede-
raj majority has been increased 100 votes. Where
these additional! votes came from, nobody knows
7ccordng to the census ,rhch has Just been completed,
Sangamon county contains only tr0 thousand siI nun
! dyed white male persons over twenty years oil age,
and has given three thousand tco hundred votes
understand many other counties show the same result
! This matter mIst be investigated and explained
! From all the information ! can collect, am satisfied
that an extensive system offauduent voting has been
practsed by the Federal party at the late election, and
that their increased number Of votes is to be account
ed for in that way l hope the State IS safe Tor US,
nevertheless, and | believe that our majority would
have been not less than seven thousand If there had
been no imported votes, double voting, and in Short
no Illegal voting BE not disheartened our pros
poets for ultimate were never brighter The
eyes OF the people will be opened by the enormous
frauds Of the Federal party.
( Here then, is one county in which the aggregate
vote exceeds the number OF resident males over II, by
about n 600 This is about treble the average eS.
cess of above the number Of resident adults winch
we pointed out in the Is counties in Ohio, the other
day. and if il holds good through all the counties in Hi
nos, is enough to give the State to Harrison BY an
overwhelming We shall see TO what extent HI
nois has been cheated by the Gentwor,h and Looney
party, in Il day or two.
