American people are too intelligent to
forget that one glaring and paramount
fact. On that fact every foundation of
the republic rests. If the choice of the
nation be not realized in the serious
question of electing its supreme ruler

were given in vain. They feel that they
might as we'll cast their suffrages for q
dummy, and they number so large a
portion of the population of the whole
country that it is AN unwise experiment
to trifle with their rights. As far as
am concerned it is of little consequence
but I tell you one OF the gravest princi
pies in representative government is in
volved. and if people do not see to i,
the matter will be subject of deep re-
gret to coming generations.
Gen. Jubal Early. in a published let
ter, describes the method of cheating in
lotteries. He says the usual method of
cheating in single number lotteries is to
issue tickets containing only 100 or 200
of the numbers in each thousand from
the highest to the lowest say from l
to loo, 600 and to leave these numbers
out of those placed in the wheel. SO
that however fairly the actual drawing
is made the ticket,holder has no earthly
chance, because the number represent
ing lis ticket has never gone into the
