MAKING VOTES IN OHIO,

7he Aethod Manufacturers 5n Columbus
adopted to Nake Democrats Cast Repub-
Lican Votes.
The Columbus Buggy company, of Colum-
bus, O., is one of the largest in this coun-
try, and over 600 voters are employed by
its managers. The large majority of them
are Democrats. The company sells nearly
all of IFS work in the South, and has built
up an immense business, and its managers
have made fortunes.
Before the late election they notified their
employees that if Hancock was elected they
would shut down the works, while if Garfield
was elected they would not only be able to
maintain present prices for labor, brt in
crease them. Their lawyer further posted
them how to manage the workmen and still
evade the statutes. A census was taken
of the voters, and printed lists, with
name, age and residence, were placed at all
the polling places where any of them voted,
and under the eye of the Republican ticket
holder and challenger. By this means not
single one of them could vote the Demo
cratic ticket without being detected, and
feeling that detection meant dismissal,
nearly or quite 400 Democrats voted the Be-
publican ticket, and Columbus, instead of
giving Democratic majority, gave q Re
publican majority. as many other Repub-
lIcan employers adopted similar methods.
Now the employees of the Buggy company
have been informed that they will get 20 per
cent. of their wages in cash and the remain
der in ''store orders.'' The stores, of course,
put up the prices on the workingmen and
make heavy discount to the company, so
that the wages of the workingmen will be
cut down from 20 to 25 per cent. in addition
to being disfranchised at the polls.
The Republicans having obtained major
ity at the late election in the city are sys-
tematicallY at work to secure it for the fu-
ture. The plan is this: All the wealthy
Republicans and Republican firms are dis
charging white laborers where skilled labor
is not required, and filling their places with
negroes from Kentucky and the two Virgin
las. The whites who are being discharged
will be compelled to go elsewhere for en-
ployment, and from 500 to 700
negroes will take their places on the
voting lists. The white laborer cannot be
depended on to vote the Republican ticket;
he negro can. This colonization ia not
being carried on in Columbus alone, but in
number of Democratic cities where a few
hundreds reliable Republican votes will pre-
vent the election of Democratic Senators
and Representatives in the legislature next
winter. Hare in Ohio colonization of the
colored people of the South is being adopted
as system and for the purpose Of making
Ohio solidly Republican for many years to
come.

The HartsKsnD Trouble.

The statement OF Mrs. Ellen King relative
to the treatment she received at our hands Is
utterly false. In the first place we bought n
lot and built house and paid for them, and
have notes and papers to show for it, and she
did not give it to us as she represents. Neither
have struck or abused her in any way.
Her intemperance is the cause of all the
trouble. and but for that there would never
have been q complaint. We have lived in this
community for twenty seven yeara and this is

fore the public. Justice to Ourselves demands

MoNrrrLrER, VT, Nov. 1s.-A rumor be-
ing current that Gen. N. W. Grant, member
of Congress elect Of the Third district of
Vermont, is ineligible, he having been born
in Canada and never been naturalized. Gen.
Grant says his parents we're natives of Yer
mont and about six weeks prior to his birth
moved into Canada, where he was born and
where he lived for about ten years. They
then came back to the States. His father
never exercised any rights of citizenship
while in Canada, and under the statute of
1902 the children of parents who are citizens
of the United States were, if born outside
the jurisdiction of the United States, not
disqualified from exercising rights as citizens
of the United States.

Wheat and Grain Storage,

From undoubtedly correct information
the GLOBE learns that storage facilities for
grain in Chicago are very meager, and that
all the vessels laying up there for the winter,
which ere capable of holding grain, are
chartered for winter storage at two cents per
bushel. When spring opens these vessels
will move out with the grain in their holds
which they have stored during the winter,
and the two cents storage before mentioned
will be added to the price of spring trans-
portation, whatever that may be. There is
little doubt that the spring movement of
grain toward the East will be the heaviest
ever known In the history.

twelve, when something struck it and In twen-
