The reported majority for Hazelton
IN this district is 10 1t is generally
understood that Mr.. King will contest
the election, on account Of alleged
fraudulent voting in different portions
Of The district. We have every reas-
OH to believe that the voting was very
fir from being everywhere conducted
OH the square. Bogus tickets were
issued by the Republicans in Grant,
Green and Lafayette counties and
the most Inscriptions measures were
rcsortcd To in order to secure the de-
feat of the opposition candidates. If
Mr. King can establish the fact that
enough fraudulent votes were cast to
change the result Of the election, OF

Mrs. Cochran has good voice, fair delivery
