awkward and inexperienced, a mai neaf by
pushes against you or the policeman seizes you
you and accuses you having vottd befo OF
course ample apologies are rendered Tor the
rudeness, the inspectors are indignant that so
respectable gentleman should Oe insulted,
they abuse the rough or policeman, you are
shown out with great respect; but your ballot
went down on the floor and the substitute got
into the box. Repeating is expensive, false
counting is troublesome, our Tammany men
are not experts az arithmetic, and figures are
often troublesome, AS our amiabe Controller
VIII ad NIT at this moment: but Ringing pal
lots IS a complete success. II is only necessary
to buy Republican inspector, and a small
place or few hundred dollars will usually do
that.
FALSE COUNTING.
The third plan is false counting This is
done generally by transferring the figures
bodily. For Instance, il Jones, the Tammany
candidate, gets 100 votes, and Smith, the OppO-
sltlon candidate, receives 200, tue 200 of Smith
are transferred to Jones, no gives his l00 to
smith. Ibis is an exquisitely simple process,
but IN practice it is said to work BADLY, and
great complaint is made of it by those who
have tried it. In the first place, the candidates
are often too nearly equal to give Tammahy
its Just preponderance, or to overcome some
persistent opposition in a district where this
0lan canuot be worked, for it is found utterly
'Gpracticable in some districts. LIS detects
can sometimes be cured by false count. mat
Is to say. the votes are Counted by teus, one
canvasser taking them up and counting ten,
when he calls tally, and slips piece OF elias
TIC around the bundle. OF course he has only
to take five votes instead of ten, and call tai
~" to augment greatly the chances OF his
'avorite Io one instance this was done SO eE-
Enthusiastically that the T.DmaDy candidate had
