rzu coNNGcTTCUT FRAUD.

New and Startling Development
Fraud of One Hundred Votes In
New Haven-Jewen Elected by the
People.
From the Hartford Coursnt.l
At last we have clear and full evi-
dence of one ofthe frauds which the
Republicans believe have for several
years been committed in New Haven.
The Democratic counters figured
and the Democratic moderator re-
turned one hundred more votes for
English in the Fourth Ward of New
Haven than were actually cast! The
facts can be established to the per
feet satisfaction Of any honest man.
They are substantially as follows:
Whole number Of votes registered. /, ,4Ol
Number not voting. g........-ss.-.-.-..--...- IsO
Number legally voting. li2l4
Illegal votes cast. ...,.........-.-,..........
Total. i,2I8
Subtract 10 votes for assessors put
in the State box, and the total for
Governor becomes ,197.
But the vote returned is:
For Jewell. .......................,.,. SO
For English. us oo-
Fraudulent sxoess.........-.......,.. loo
One year ago the Republican can
vass in this ward gave the Democrats
about 80 majority, and the Demo
Gratis themselves only claimed about
65. But they made the returns give
English about $50. The Republi-
cans then believed that they were
cheated, and they determined to
keep closer watch the next time.
The check list has been repeatedly
and most carefully counted. II JUS
titles the statement above given
l ,404 voters registered, 100 not vot
ing, 2 illegal votes. Total for gov
ernor, after subtracting the votes for
assessors, 1897. But by giving
English us votes instead of 616,
they made the total 1897, which is
100 more than could possibly have
been given.
After the count had been finish
ed on the evening of the election,
Democratic tickets were found be-
/ tween the oil-cloth cover and the ia
ble. One theory as to the manner
In which the fraud was committed
is this: The Democratic counters
proposed to count the "clean" (oI
unscrstched) tickets by fifties. But
after the bundles had been quite OF
nearly made up, they concluded to
count By hundreds, but they did not
| double up all the packages! So
that in two instances packs Of fifty
were counted as hundreds, making
clear gain Of hundred. In the
meantime the Republican counters
were kept busy counting Republi-
can clean tickets or scattering
votes.
How many ballots are now sealed
up in that box? If there are but
1897 for State officers, then the re-
turn of l ,297 is plainly a mistake or
fraud. If 1897 ballots for State
officers are found, while only I,l97
we're cast for representatives, and
the check list carefully counted over
and over again shows that, deduct
ing the 16 blunders, only 1897 could
have been lawfully put in, then it is
q clear case Of ballot-box stufifng, a
pure specimen of Tammany tactics.
Let them take which horn of the
dilemma they please, the detected
error or fraud shows that Marshall
Jewell was elected Governor by
clear majority.

KANSAS LETTER.

WSANDoTTE KAN, April 7th, 1871.
FRIEND BALsLEY: notice by your jour
NAL of April lst, that we are posted as having
gone to Florida. This doubtless is not mis-
take Of the printer but some one else. As
many of the good people Of Fremont are
aware, we left home for Kansas and Colorado,
March l4th. It may be of interest TO our
friends to know Of our Randerings and where
abouts, and will take the trouble to write, if
you can afford to take the time to set up and
occupy your valuable space, with an OCCASION
al letter from the West. As stated, we left
home, via Toledo, Wabash & Western Rail
Road, which brought us safely to St. Louis,
next day, with the usual pleasure, and discom-
forts of railroad travelling. We found southern
Illinois just merging into the beautiful glory
of spring. The harbingers of warm weather,
were so high in their glee, that their sharp
peculiarPee-wee wecould distinctly hear above
the roar Of the rushing train Of cars, as we
neared the great and would be capital city.
In crossing the Mississippi River, at East
st. Louis, we had a fair view of the effects of
the late tornado, which, in three minutes time
smashed steam boats, cars, depots, locomotives,
trees and things generally, causing considera-
BILE loss of life. We staid at the Planters
House, and found the comforts OF home and
enjoyed the warm and genial spring. or rather
summer air, for two days. Having visited
this place, fourteen years ago, 1 could not but
be impressed with the vaStness Of the changes
in the city during the time. 1t would weary
your readers TO enumerate the great features
of this city. Everything in the way OF busi-
ness, its buildings, its rail road and population,
is Just perfectly immense, and few people at
the East realize that there is so great city as
ST. Louis out West, sitting like queen on her
throne, drawing admiration and reverence
from an hundred cities, and half OF the domain
Of Uncle Samuel.
The rail road bridge across the Mississippi |

tight more new rail roads, that desire con-

Fighting the Railroad.

There are abundant indications that the long
excepted revolt OF the people against the en-
eroachments Of railway managers is about tc
begin in earnest. The New York papers oil
the 29th Of March contained petition signed
by five hundred OF the leading mercantile
firms of that city, in which IS set forth long
series of e4tortion and really unlawful viola
tions of the responsibilities of public carriers
by the New York Central and Hudson River
railroads. The document is SO specifically
drawn and so strongly attested as to form the
most powerful protest yet uttered against the
encroachLIents of the railroad.
The same spirit has been ncspeciallynoticeable
in the Ohio Legislature during tho debate on
the bill to enlarge the duties of the Railway
Commissioners of Ohio. While this measure
was before the State Senate, it was supported
by Hon L. D. Woodwork, of the Mahonine
district, in q speech which certainly makes q
strong case in favor of putting our State Com
missi0ners in position to grapple mora sue
cesfully than they have hitherto done with
the injustice so often noticeable In the con-
duct Of great railroad lines. Mr.. WoodWorth's
speech is long and elaborate, but its essence
may be condensed into lew lines.
He holds that the laws which formerly SUI
feed to control short local railroads are utterly
powerles against great lines, which reach
across three or four states. He asserts that
the legislatures of at least ten leading states
are owned and controlled By railroads who.
gained any legislation they want by the cor
Tupt use ofmoney, The position of Ohio, Mr..
Woodworth thinks, renders her likely to en-
counter great difficulties with the railway
kings, 7nless the state assert her rights i'm
mediately and without fear. As long as
freights fron Toledo to New York are higher
than from Chicago to New York Ula Toledo.
there is injustice done to Ohio for which the
law should provide remedy.
In Illinois, where new fields OF legislation
are so often and so brayely entered, the Leg
islature has actually passed law providing
that the state shall have power to fix the scale
of freight tariffs on all roads within her bor
ders. Michigan made feeble effort in the
same direction, but the movement has mysterj-
ously failed, as 50 meny anti-railroad measures
have been known to fall under similar circum-
stances. 1t is evident, however, that the spirit
IF the shipping and stockholding community
IS fully reused, and that the next two years
ire to see determined effort made to restore
.ome of the ancient ideas with regard to the
rights of the people in the matter Of transpor
alton and locomotion.
