TIE ELECTION FRAUDS IN PHILADELPHIA.
fFrem the Philadelphia Ledger, Oct TO-
The charges or fraud In the election On Tuesday last
appear be based entirely upon the increased vote OF
the city. The aggregate o8c'a vote for the two candi-
datee for Mayor In Nay last amounted TO 5.,979. The
aggregate oca Tor the two candidates for Canal
creased vote Of Is sea In population Of half million
nbabsnts, which Philadelphia possesscs, VIII not De
pretended that this vote reaches the fair proportion OF
persons entitled TO that privilege. IL not more than
two thirds Of the number Of persons legally entitled 70
that right. New York cnn less aggregate vote than
PHILADELPHIA and has for many years, because Nes York
has higher relative foreign population not entitled 70
suffrage. II will be remembered that an extraordinary
excitement preceded our election and extraordinary
uyity was used by all parties to bring out the voters
third party In the field which brought out persons
who do not usually 20 to the polls and moreover the
and In counties much greater increase than Ia
Philadelphia There nothing then In the increased vote
proport cnate gains of the parties there any res
sonsble ground for such suspicion.
The vote Tuesday last for the democratic candidate
Dor Canal Comm issoner was as follows
ysux, dem, IN May last .................. 1854
Democratic increase ........................ 6,504
The vote Tor the fusion candidate for Canal Com.
missioner on Tuesday last was as follows
Cochran. 5zto4
Fer Moore, A., in May ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. 25,4l5
Fusion increase. 7.s4e
This comparison shows that the ste increased vote
over May is very nearly equally divided, the union
ticket having only s45 votes Of the increased
mens than the democratic ticket the increased vote
n Indicative Of fraud one party appears 70 be ~ justly
chsrgeabe with AZ the other. II viii OF do for the
defeated party charge all upon the other when IL
vote on hibn relatively creator increase. But We
do no, believe that fraud had anything 10 do with
this result n the natural effect OF The cx;raor-
binary efforts madc by the various parties 70 bring
out all the votes Of their pre,incts.
from the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, Oct. 90
In quite electorate and spccous but very unsound ar
t,ce the Ledger OF this morning attempts TO justify the
frauds committed by It's friends At Tho late election In this
city. With that extraordinary faith In the immaculate
purity Of the democratic tfArty which has resisted
pcatcd demonstration Of fraud which have been publish
cd In its columns, insists THAI there could have
been no frauds pcrpcuated Tuesday last BY way OF
persuang people that Is right hrefers TO the vote
Tor Mayor May last, ana By making comparison with
The present vote II arrives al the conclusion that "
party committed frauds the other did also. To do this
assumes the vote cast for Mr. Naux represented &C
curatey the democratic vote whereas knows, and the
whole Community know, that beside the democratic VOTE
Mr. received the votes Of old wings ocans and
