thus keeping themselves in place. He said
ia Vermont, where the people never heard
of money being paid before, money was
poured out like water to induce Democrats
TO vote for the Grant ticket or stay away
from she polls. So in Maine. A hundred
thousand dollars was paid in Maine for
votes, and if they elect their ticket this fall,
it will be because they have 500 to our
one"
| Mr.. Greeley continued at some length.
