1,472 votes. A certificate on the
back OF the tally sheet certified
that j. r. Chalmers received 1,472 |
votes and SO on. AS appears from
the foregoing tally sheet, which
they further certify to be correct,
Manning's counsel objected toI
counting the Chambless votes f'rI
Chalmers. Chalmers insisted on
having the votes, and asked to be
heard by counsel. A recess was
taken that the parties might pre-
pare for the argument. W. L. NJ
gent, OF Jackson, appeared for Chal-
mers, and additional counsel in the
person of Ed. Clarke, of Vicksburg,
appeared for Manning, the latter Of
whom opened the argument, but
before he had proceeded far the
Sheriff appeared and served an Or
der on The Secretary of State sued
out before the Circuit Judge on Ike
petition OF Chalmers, setting forth
that he was elected to Congress,
and that the Secretary of State re-
fused to count ,472 votes received
by him, thus defeating him OF his
election. The order forbids his is
suing a certificate Of election TO any
other person than j. Il. Chalmers,
or taking any other steps until fur
ther orders Of the Court. Mr.
Clarke concluded his argument and
was followed by Mr.. Nugent, after
which a recess Was taken. On re-
assembling The Secretary OF State
said that he had heard rgumeDts
on both sides, and had arrived at
the conclusion that his duties are
purely ministerial and that he could
only count the votes as they ar-
peared in the returns, and that he
fels it his duty 10 count the votes
in Tate County as given in The tally
sheet, and he refused to count the
l,472 votes therein for Chalmers,
as claimed by hlm, but would count
lhe same for J. r. Cham bless,
and having canvaSsed the whole
cote, he declared Manning electe
from the the returns received. Ac.
cording to the vote ds counted. -
Manning received 8,749; Chalmers
S,257; Carter l29; ChambleSS l ,472;
Howry l..
Under the laws of the State it is
the duty Of the Secretary of State to
count the votes aud declare the re-
suit, and upon his declaration the
Governor issues the commission.
The commission has been issued by
the Governor to Van Fl. Manning.
Mr.. Manning was preparing TO con
test Chalmers seat Or the ground
that he (Chalmers) had secured his
election by the lavish use of Hub
BELLS corruption fund, aud the al
legged interference of United States
Deputy Marshals in the rura. dis.
tricts, but by this decision Manning
will be the contestee instead of the
contestant, if contest should be
made.
1t is the conclusion Of the bal
here and other eminent visiting
lawyers that the decision of the
Secretary Of State is correct, and
that the Circuit Judges interfer
ference was without authority o
law.
