we're omitted when they had the true and full

A COUNTY RETURN THROWN ovr.
In Clay county the Board have been guilty of a
practical disregard Of the order OF the Court which
that body will hardly overlook. In this county
vassers had excluded from their county returns ono
precinct because the election officers did appear
have sworn, but the county canvassers had &C.
companci their return with the vote ircm this
precinct for the Information oil the State
Board with all the facts. Tho state Board in their
previous canvass added tho Of this precinct Tho
return and counted IT, This addition the Court told
ihom they had no right to make but must count the
return before them. They have. 10 the canvass to.

there has been immense outside pressure for count
