at o'clock came the fantastic parade under
the management of Capt. Geo. M. Leach At
9 O'Clock procession was formed at the hall of

rection of w. M. Mitchell, chief marshal, as
sisted by Col j. M. Leach, consisting of Good
Templars, Juvenile Temples and members of
the Sabbath schools, and headed by the West
Poland band marched to the grove, where a
large audience had gathered to listen TO the

The Gouldsboro Return

Hon. Frank M. Fogg followed the General
in his energetic and aggressive manner, ex.
planning away all the doubts in the minds of
those present as to the legal points in the
contingent conspiracy" He charged Or
vile ID. Baker with being the guilty party in
scratching the Gouldsboro return, and gave his
reasons for believing that gentleman guilty of
the act.-Fd'mangton Special to the argus.
1t will not be claimed by the Argus or Mr..
Fogg that Mr.. Baker had any opportunity to
scratch the return before the tabulations
were made up. No Republican saw the re-
turns before that time. Yet on the tabulations
opposite Gouldsboro appears the name of
Oliver 2. Bragdon scratched out and the name
of James Flye written over it. In making up
these tabulations the Council first decided that
Oliver P. Bragdon was elected and wrote his
name in the list of those elected. Later on
they decided that James Flye was elected and
scratched out Bragdon's name and wrote Flye's
above. The Tabulators now claim that the
middle initial letter of Mr.. Bragdon's name
appeared in the Gouldsboro return to be dis
tinct "B.," and that it only became ques tiona-
BILE what it was after Mr.. Baker scratched it
If this be so how did it happen that they tabu-
lated Gouldsboro in the first place for Oliver
P. Bragdon.

The Fairfield Case Again.

Fogg's Chronicle reviews the PREss's state
ment of the Fairfield case and without deny
ing any of the facts contained therein has the
assurance to argue that the Council were JUS
tilted in treating the returns from that town
as they did We quote from the Chronicle:
The selectmen had suppressed 20 fusion
votes and made up the record accordingly.
They then testified that the returns and record
were false and this destroyed the original re-
turn as it should have done. They thus being
caught at their rascality, four DAYS afterwards,
made an amended return, which was not
copy OF the record at all, ana certified that it
was signed and sealed in open town meeting,
which was lie. Hence the original returns
could not be counted, and the amended return
was illegal.
When Tabulator Fogg states that the select
men of Fairfield suppressed twenty Fusion
votes he states what is false, we'll knowing it
to be so. What conceivable motive could the
selectmen have had to suppress those votes?
None whatever. The district was Republican
with those vote counted. Furthermore, is it
probable or possible that these selectmen, if
they had intentionally neglected to count
twenty Fusion votes, would have gone to Tab
ulator Brown and confessed that they had
done so and asked him how they could fix it?
Is that the way guilty men act? Certainly
not. If these Fairfield officers had intention
ally suppressed votes they wouldn't have con-
fessed it to Tabulato or Brown or anybody else.
The Tabulators have shifted their ground a
good deal since they made their first statement
concerning the Fairfield case. In their report
they explained that Fairfield was thrown out
simply because there were two returns, one con-
tradieting the other, and they could not tell
which was the original. Now Fogg is explain
ing why the Council could not count the orig
inal returns and why they could not count the
amended returns. This is the first time that
any OF the Tabulators has admitted that
there was any such thing as an amended re-
turn. Heretofore they have rested their de-
fence solely on their inability to tell which of
the two returns, similar in all respects, except
as to the number of votes returned for several
of the candidates, should be counted The
giving of reasons why the Council could not
count the original return and why they could
not count the amended return is a confession
that an original and an amended return existed
and that they were distinguishable one from
the other, thus proving that the first explana
| ton of the Council was falsehood
