feat, the Gazette vented its impotent rage
this morning upon the Judges Of the Elec>
ton, because they did not canvass the ems
tire vote last night Ia the first place that
was impossible. for it is the work Of two
days. Secondly, the Judges were closely
confined at the polls from early in the morn
ing until late in the evening, without get
ting time to take mor.el Of food, and were
completely exhausted. Thirdly, i. has
becn the custom Of Judges Of Elections il
this township for years past to count ou,
the straight vote for one or more candidate.

Messrs. Bchrens, Kshl and Crandall were
perfectly justified in doing what they did
BE il known, also. that Mr.. Behrcns and
Mr.. Kahl are soldiers, one Of whom lost q
hand and the other lex in the war, and
were candidates on The Peoples Ticket
hence the Gazette takes especial pride in
calling them stupid, lazy, dunderheads, v
aud otherwise abusing them. All the Judges
did their duty well, and that they should
bc thus abused 10 . perfect outrage. Thai
