The Crescent, with unusual courtesy,
states that the claims of the Republican
Committee of 2l,OoO Republican registered
voters In this city is incorrect, because the
Democrats count $4,000 votes of 1900
registered. Our amiable neighbor fails to

fraudulent voting, and the fact that 1t ex-
poets to prove that between seven and
eight thousand fraudulent Democratic
votes were counted in this city alone.
