4 Few Truths for the Return.
ing Board.

The right to choose our rulers by
the ballot IL inherent and cannot be
legally Invested. 1t is one OF those
privileges of an American citizens
that will never he relinquished and
will he jealousy guarded against
any invasion or Infringement: In
the exercise of that right we find
!. The deposit Of the ballot in the
box or receptacle provided to receive
t. il "the election" The voter hay
inc deposited his ballot, has declar
cd lis choice in the manner pointed
out by law.
2. The counting of the ballots is not
the election it is the means by which
the election is to be ascertained and
this duty is performed by the agents
appointed by the law, and all the
voter can do is to stand by and see
the votes properly counted.
He has no control over the officers
nor is he to lose an iota of his rights
by reason Of any omission, neglect,
fault or fraud Of any commissioner or
other officers, over whose acts he has
no supervision or control.
3. The great object Of election laws
regulating the registry, the voting
and the returns thereof is to protect
and guard the right Of the voter
against fraud or violence but these
safe guards are not to be used to
defeat that right by the omissions, ne
glect or frauds of the officers to whom
these trusts are conided. i
4. When the voting has been fair
and no charge made and established
of fraud or unfairness, then no return
OF the votes should he thrown out by
reason Of any omission Of form by
commissioners, supervisors or deputy
supervisors or any of tho crowd of
officials whom tho present laws ap-
point.
Finally, the Returning Board must
keep prominently in view, as their
polar star Of action, that the laws are
made to secure tho right of the citi-
zen not to take it away, and that he
is not to lose his right by any act
over which he can have no control. If
any other construction were permit
ted then the managers of election,
and not the electors, could and would
control the elections by controlling
the returns. EE
The people, then, will hold the Re-
turning Board to strict accounta-
'bility, aud will not submit to any
decision whereby their votes are to
he thrown out. They have been long
patient under oppression, and have
tolerated fraud and corruption, and
quietly submitted to wrongs that no
other people could have borne. They
have resolved to yield no more, and
they will repeat history by rising
against their oppressors and making
them feel the power Of an outraged
people, if any attempt be made by
the Returning Board to repeat the |
frauds If 1877. IN. o. Bulletin.
