NEWPORT ELECTION The elect on
OF Mr.. Ca'ver' by one majority was
reached by the rejection Of several
votes one was that of man whose
name was not en- the list, but who, we
understand, was otherwise qualified, ,and
his name omitted by accident, He ties.
tifcd that he voted for Cranston, and
the Board OF Aldermen rejected his
vote. Two otI.er votes for Cransron
were rejected because the words ''ior
Mayor" were cut oil the ballot another
was rejected because The name Of
Crans'on was scratched. The rrjcc-
ton Of the two votes on account Of the
omission OF the words 'ior Mayor is 50
clearly wrong that we are surprised
that it should be thought Of for n mo-
meui. II more than one officer had
been voted TO-, and the ballot did not
designate the office Tor which the vote
was given, then the vote might be re-
j"cted although even IN that case,
where the intention Of the voter is clear
and the law is complied with, it has
been cus,omtry TO give liberal con-
s,ructlon to the righ, Of suffrage. Thus
in The congressional election Of 1851, "A
Mr.. kIDy, as representative TO 3 ST Con.
grcss when he was 4 candidate Tor lhe
32d Congress, and the votes were count
ed so a great many votes for Tristan
Rurges, were once counted for Tristan
Burgess, lcr whom they were clearly
intended.
The Newport case, is clearer than
either OF these. The election was Tor
Mayor only, and every vote was given
for Mayor" whether 1t bore those
words or not. The law does not require
any such words on the ballot and the
other ballots might just as well have
been rejected because they were no,
pr inted Tor Mayor of the city of New
port The Newport News, from which
we gather the facts in the case, says
that the right Of MIR. Calvert TO hold the
Office i'll be contested. We have en-
deavored to keep clear of the uniortu-
nate quarrel in which our friends in
Newport have involved themselves, lut
it is only simple justice to say that the
decision of The Board of Aldermen upon
the facts as stated, is most singular
one, and we have not the leas, idea
that ii can he sustained. We are sur
prlsed that Mr.. Calvert, who has every.
where the reputation OF Il high minded
man, should accept the Office into " hich
he is counted in this manner -PJor.
