LIE PARTY OF THE PENITESTIARY.-The
Washington correspondent Of the Virginia
Chronicle gives graphic account of the
way of the RAIDS. in Pennsylvania. We
republish the following extract from his
his letter:
In the City of Philadelphia alone there
We're 1900 more votes registered than
were polled at the last election for Gov.
ernor, and the lists it is said were CORES
pondlngly increased in all the large cities
where repeating " could be safely play
ed by the managers. The process Of
voting these fraudulent names was by
importing the professional thieves and
ruffians of cities in adjoining States a
day or two before election. and drillino
them in the part assigned to each par.
tlcular villain. At the "Invincible "
Headquarters in Philadelphia they work
ed cargo of 500 New York Repeaters.
Here was printed copy of the register
OF each district, presided over by a big
rutfian. who deity piled pair of shears,
Jack Sheppard, of New York. is called
up and informed by the man-ui.b-,he-
shears that he is TO vote in the first dis
trlct as Elisha Smith, merchant. LOSS
Arch street, in the second district as
Thomas johnson, plumber, 500 Rose
street, and so on through every district
In the city. As they were fictitious
names, no one was at the polls to dispute
their right to vote; or if they were ehal-
lenged, pal was on hand to identify him
under oath, and the challenger either
bought on or choked off. In this wsv.
the New York Sun estimates. this Club
alone worked through 1000 fraudulent
votes for Hartranft. while it is elsewhere
stated that not less than 10000 sueh
votes were polled in Philadelphia, aside
from those polled along the line OF the

A RADICAL LIE.

One Of the msanest f.lsehoo-ds that the
Radical papers circulate, Is the assertion
that the southern people can exercise the
privilege Of voting as freely a. those Of
the North This is not the case, and
those papers that know anything about
the matter know it Is not. They, how
ever. ignore this knowledge. and then
publish willful lie, while their brethren
do the same through ignorance. In four
States-Arkansas, Mississippi, LoGisianA
and Texas-the y hole machinery OF regis
tr4tiOn Is under the sole control OF the
Radical Governors, seoundrels that no
decent society would tolerate for an in
slant. Hadey, the Governor Of Arkansas,
is the tool Of Clayton, man tha. Grant
saved from The penitenti4ry and sent to
the {. 5. Senate, by dischsrying TIE U.
5. District Attorney who WIS about to
prosecute Clayton Davis. the Governor
OF Texas, Is still worse, for he has con-
--Aa- - a A---A Ne---S-A rNCA NAA-r 10 u
committed to maintain the Radical rule.
I WarmOth, Of louisiana, is another OF
| the same kind, as is also the Governor OF
Mississippi, The latter being the best Of
the bunch, though God knows in that
! case, bad indeed IS the bzst. In these
four States the number OF men who
| register and vote. are determined solely
By the fears of what the people may en-
/ dure, There Is no redress, no appeal.
/ The Registrars who are appointed by
! these Governors, put on or strike off
/ whom they please: and worse still. the
| Boards Of Election take upon themselves
! to accept or refuse what votes they
/ choose, no matter whether the voter is
/ registered or not. The voters of Nevada
are II happy ignorance OF tie insu IS,
frauds and dan gers that positively attends
every white citizen Of the four States We
have named, when he attempts 10 e1er-
else the franchise. First, he has to be
registered by man who can receive his
name or refuse, Just as he (the Re.is-
trar) pleasss, without giving any r-ason.
| Through that ordeal, he offers his vote
to an election board who will take or de-
cline it just as caprice may dictate. In
| Texas, there is only one polling pace for
each county, and many voters have to
travel from 50 TO $50 miles to vote.
These are no eXaggerations, ba. hard,
stern, positive facts; and yet the Radical
papers viii coolly print ana publish the
lie, that only a few hundred of the
Southern P ople are disfr.nchised.
! There are tens of thousands deprived
Of all chance of voting by the infamous
State laws passed by ignorant and venal
legislatures, approved by Governors who
ought to be in the prison of their State
| instead of the Executive chair, backed
by Grants influence or bayonets Just As
occasion may need. That is the way the
franchise Is exercised by the people Of
the southern States that remain under
Radical rnIe. How would the citizens of
Nevada Ike to vote under similar laws:

1st Discussion on the Draft Of Budget for
1928. The Vicegovernor commented on the
unlavorable results of the Draft, shelving an ex-
cess of expenditure of upwards $4,000. But
the different sums are merely maxima, and ex-
perieuce for past years proved that the actual
disbursements are not as large as put down on
the Budgets but at the same time there was
no ignoring that something similar may happen
on the revenue side, as some of the items depen-
dent on the crop might perhaps turn out less.
But 10 comparing the expenses for this year
with those posted for IS71-72, it will be found
that they are now So, 1000 less, notwithstanding
many extraordinary building works that are
now proposed. Deficiencies have occurred on the
budgets of previous years, but in not one case
has the position of the Island been so favourable
to meet the emergency as now and in dealing
with the question as to how we are to cover this
years deficit, the answer is found in the financial
state of the colony. The money in the Colo
NAL Treasury Up to the end Of February was
$93,737, but of that sum a portion was due to
special funds, so that the amount really belong
ing TO the Colonial Treasury is about $67, 1903,
against which there is a debt of $3s, 512, so that
the actual balance is about $4,000. OF the
revenue and expenditure for the present year
there Is every reason to lookfor a considerable
surplus. From that the efficiency may with

ANNIVERSARY DAYS N APRIL.

From tho Springfield Caass.) Republican,
Many secular anniversaries, ancient
and modern, occur IN the month Of
April; some Of worldwide interest
others Of national importance ; still
others as days Of peculiar remem-
brance. We can allude'to only a very
few of them. 1t WAS on the 4th Of
April. 1855. that Richmond fell Into
the hands of the Federal Government,
after so many long and desperate
struggles. On the 9th General Lee
surrendered his forces, and the confed'
eracy collapsed; events which were
among the many momentous ones Of
our grapple with the great rebellion.
And the first shot at Fort Sumter,
which opened the .'dance of DEATH foi
us, occurred OH the 18th Of April, 1861,
The 18th day Of April, 1865, was the
day of doom to our great and good
Lincoln, through the bullet of the
assassin Booth. The 18th was the day
of his death. Future generations will
take more heed of this anniversary
than the one which was privileged to
know the man himself. Especially
will that race, in whose freedom the
mighty struggle resulted, love to re.
member and honor the day Wherein
that noble martyr to their cause yielded
up his life. On tho 18th of April, 1870,
Benjamin Franklin, now world-known
and world-respectsd, departed this life,
laden with years and honors. The
18th Of April, 1776, opened the drama
Of the revolutionary war by the battle
OF Lexington. Lord Byron died at
Missolonghi, in Italy. the 18th of April,
1924; his fiery but erratic genius finally
queuched while aiding the Greeks in
their struggle for independence. The
23d Of April, 1SlG, will always be
memorable as the II which closed the
mortal existence of the rarest and
most brilliant mind which tue annals
Of poesy can boast In any age-that Of
William Shakespeare. On the Both oil
April, 1883, George Washington waa
inaugurated the first President Of tho
now great and prosperous Republic,
having conducted to a triumphant tor.
mination the revolutionary conflict, as
our last one has done that Of the great
rebellion.

Yesterday Afternoon a very singular
accident occurred at the Potrero.. A
ma was trying to Induce a horse to
back into the shafts, OF a buggy. The
animal was n little stubborn. and 30
was the man. The latter picked up a
broom .iandle and made n thrust Mt the
formers head. The horse opened his
mouth and the broom-handls almost
disappeared down his throat and broke
of. Ali efforts to, pull IL out again
were unayailing, and finally a veteri-
nary surgeon formed a new mouth In
the horses neck by cutting a gash, md
Ia that way the broom handle was re-
covered.
A Market street undertaken yester-
day received an order to prepare a
plain redwood coffin, to be covered
with plain white linen, and unadorned
with plates or other funeral gimcracks.
The mother Of the deceased-who Is q
