testimony, states that the strangers CON-
menced crowding around the polls. and
that then the residents left. Threats
were made before and during the cleo.
ton day that there should be no Free
State candidates, although there were
nearly or quite Is many free State as
pro-slavery men resident In the district.
Most Of the crowd were drinking and ca
rousing. cursing the sbohtionists and
threatening the only free State Judge
Of Election. A majority Of those who
voted " ore hemp In their button holes.

were known, and are named by the wit
nesses. Several speeches were made
by Oh EN- az the polls. and among those
who spoke were Major Oliver, one Of

Ian Williams Of Platte county. Major
Oliver urged upon all present TO use no

commended all TO vote, AMI hoped none
