ACCUSATIONS OF FRAUD.
TO the Rditor Of The Tribune
SIR: Your paper and many Others are full
OF statements general and particular Of the enormous
and open frauds Of the GRANTEES in PennVVaha anu
elsewhere These things stated as being positively
known. For instance it s said that repeaters were
conducted from poll TO poll by U. g. Marshas In ol-
zens cloh,s Last evening heard lady reading these
things who is an ardent we-wsher Of the Democratic
Liberal cmlse. When she had read thus far she OK
claimed "Well do MT believe it, There must be law
against such crimes and If this Is all true why are not
the perpetrators arrested and brought 10 justice But
there is nothing done in such caSeS-there never was
do MT believe the accusations are true NOW III seems
10 me this view OF the matter must strike every
person Just, and think 1t must De ehterIaneu ny
multudes of voters of both parties. IL Is certainly
after OF the highest interest TO the party against whch
the frauds perpetrated that swllt anu ape A1
ment shall follow them, but there Is nothing done pierre
assertion fraud will compel the benei OF tOse
whose party iealtY persuades them tne othoI way
few hundreds OF the scoundres at hard labor IN tne
Penitentiary would furnish visible proof that cOul
hardly he gainsayed. | think all the newspapers might
az we'll accusations OF fraud unless 5OmeIhlhB
Is 10 be done about IL. Yours, for Greeley, H.
