Democratic subserviency.

The demand made upon the In
an sto- of the election in some Of the
wards OF this city by Democrats is sueh
that the more honorable iuen OF thu
party ara unwilling to act in that
capacity. In nors than one instance
Inspectors have been insulted and ma
liaped for acting fairly and honorablJ
toward Republicans. This was notably
so in the case OF Dennis Kane, the In
8 e ,tor Of the Western precinct OF the
Third Ward at the Presidential slec
t on. Because he would not take the
b .llot Of avery seallawsg that vas ten
d 40 ihe was.grossly insultsd by q police
o Eicer from Washington, and was also
b.rstei by Pat Gardiner and other men
o, ths. ilk, who held that man who
i,n,t willing to use his Office to con.
ye t Republican majorities into minori-
ties. as was done at the Little Election,
should not act as Inspector. The ten
dency Of such unwarranted attacks is
to place unserupulous partizans in this
i'm portant position-lnsn who are will
lag to wink at fraudulent voting, who
&c willing to lie, to chest to commit
perjury in order to insure the SUCCESS
OF the Democratic party. The Southern
method plesfss them, and they would
like to introduce it In our State in
order that It too may be kept solid. Pat
Gardner, Bill Lee and knight are the
kind OF men that some Of the Dsmocr! 10
wish to hold the election in order To In.
sure success. The prosecution Of all
parties guilty Of fraud, or aiding or
abe ting the same, may cause a moro
wholesome respect for the. law and lead
to more honorable dealing. II such
bs the case 1t will not have bet 4
in vain.
