have testified to having voted from
nine To ,!irty-ninr times. and That Mr.

vented the science Of repetition from
further unlimited progress. Among
the witnesses TO the naturalization
frauds il II printer. who testified that
his press had ruin from June to No
vcmbcr with these ingenious citizen-
making papers. 1t has been NrGloped
also that number otnotorious thieves
and burglars had been compelled by
the Democrats TO act rs rcpcaters or
be sent 10 the 'pcnitcnliary OH indict-
mcnis which hal been found against
them, aud were in the hands, of the
District ATTORNEY. who gave them their
choice. They voted from ten 10 forty
TIMES each, and are willing TO testify
to al Tie facts because the Democratic
committee has failed TO keep its word
respecting payment. The inve>tiGat-
