Clarksville Fraud-At his old Tricks

The Registrars who conducted the election
In our county acted SO fairly. and manifested
such a determination to prevent all fraud and
illegality In voting that we were inspired
with the hope that the past contest would not
be stained with any of those acts so disgrace
ful to the perpetrators, and yet, of late years
so common in our country. We were destin-
ed to he sadly disappointed, if we are correct
ly informed of the proceedings at the town Of
Clarksville in johnson County. 1t is reported
on good authority, that the polls were closed
at sun down on the day Of the election in the
Clarksvillc precinct, about 200 votes having
been cast. These could easily have been
counted by the judges in one hour, but fol
reasons that the sequel develops, it was deem
ed necessary to postpone the counting until
the following morning. The ballot box was
entrusted to FITCH of the Standard. who had
the custody thereof until morning. Morning
came and with it the counting of the enor-
NOUS vote. Every one, at all posted, as to the
political complexion the town Of Clarksvillc
and the entire precinct was well aware ofthe
fact that the Constitution would be largely de-
feated there. Lo and behold the counting
manifested the manipulation of the custodian
Of the ballot-box and the sovereigns of the
Clarksville precinct were astoundcd by the
announcement that the Constitution was car
ricd by over one handred myorty' Here was
a clear ease of the basest fraud upon the most
sacred rights OF the people. Clarksvlle saw
she had been grossly swindled and would not
tamcly submit. She is made of sterner stuff.
Runners were sent in all directions and the
voters were summoned to town. and when
our Informant left the result had been chang
ed to about one hundred majority against the
Constitution. Shame, eternal shame rest up-
on the head Of the bastard who would thus at
tempt to stab LIBERTY In the dark. This in
fanny was pcrpetrated by one of the lights of
the Radical party in Northwest Arkansas.
Can honorable men longer affiliate with this
creature. Honesty demands that the Radical
party spurn this blot on the fair face Of hu-
manity from their ranks. II they continue to
put him forward as the exponent of their
principles. can they refuse to share In his in
famys This case loudly demands the inter-
ference ofthe military under whose auspices
this creature was afforded the opportuni ity
to thus attempt this foul fraud upon the rights
of the people. Let all concerned in this scan
dalous proceeding be punished as they deserve.
They have attempted to stihe the voice of the
people by invading the sacred ballot box.
They thus indirectly attempt to rob the peo-
pie oftheir liberty. Away with them! Let
justice be done. The halter is too good for
them. Such creatures should suffer the high
est rehnements of torture. Their fate should
be as a warning to Others who rob the people
Of their rights. Every honorable sentiment
known to human nature loudly demands the
punishment Of these men. VIII the command

Arksnsas Redeemed White men Still

We feel confident that the State will vote
down the infamous and degrading instrument
miscalled Constitution adopted by the Mig
ger Convention, on the llth February. The
returns from the counties received are all
cheering. The rotten composition is over
5000 votes behind and this is from counties
some of which were claimed by the carpet

the result can hardly be mistaken. The chief

dealer goes to count the votes and judge of his
own election, and he says the RAIDS intend to

the people vote it down or not. They expect
Congress TO interfere and by some Kind of
robbery and swindle' arrangements called

person more worthy and better suited to fill

for our readers prevents us from particular

that will be easily understood. Gen. Kinds
