PAVING THE WAY FOR FRAUD
A Scheme to Clear the Path for

Count,

A Scheme to Clear the Path for
Fraudulent Ballot and Fraudulent
Count.
The Dem ccats here, says Chicago
special, think they have discovered the
true reason for Buffers candidacy, and
that the charge that he is acting in col
fusion with the Republicans is receiving
added proof every day. The latest and
strongest evidence is the course pursued
by the Republican State Central Commit
tee. The United States laws provide
for the appointment of Government
Supervisors of election by the United
States Marshals. The only restriction is
that the two to be appointed for each dis
trict shall be of different political parties.
The Republican State Central Committee
is making up list of names for recon-
mendation to that important position. 1t
does not recognize the Democratic party
at all in the matter, but is making two
complete lists, one Republican and one
Butlerite, for each district. AS "Long''
Jones is both United States Marshal and
Chairman of the State Central Committee
1t is to be presumed he will make the APP
polntments as recommended.
There is shreWd suspicion that Uni
ted states Marshals who are not chair
men 0fState committees will be called on
elsewhere to do a like favor for the G. o.
p, and thereby shut out the Democratic
party all over the country from having
any supervisors OF election in their behalf
at the polls

SENATOR BAYARD, OF DELAWARE.


Taking them in alphabetical order, the
first Of these three is Senator Bayard.
Bis grandfather, James Ashton Bayard,
was member Of the Fifth, Sixth, and Sew
enth Congresses, and became a Senator
in 1906, holding the position for many
years. His son, James A. Bayard, fol-
lowed in his footsteps later on, being a
Senator from 1851 to 1869, at which date
the mantle fell upon the present Senator,
his son, who has since served, the Bayard
family having thus monopoliZed the seat
in question for more than half of the pres
ent century.
Secretary Frelinghuysen is another of
this celebrated trio. He was, as is well
known, Senator from New Jersey for a
number of years. He was also, the record
shows, the nephew and adopted son Of
Theodore Frelinghuysen, who was also a
Senator, and who was, in his turn, son
of Senator Frelinghuysen, who entered the
Senate in 1893 after a considerable service
in the Continental Congress.
The third in the list is the present Sena-
tor from Indiana, Ben Harrison, and he is
entitled to special mention because he Is
fourth in succession and direct descent as
a member of the Harrison family in the
Congress of the United States.
His father, John Scott Harrison.
who was in the Thirty-third
son of President Harrison, who was in
the Fourteenth Congress before he became
President, and was son Of Benjamin
Harrison, a member of the Continental
Congress. Thus Mr.. Harrison has the
''recOrd' thus far, for beside being the
grandson of a President, he is fourth in
direct succession of the generations Of
Harrisons who have been in Congress
from the Continental Congress down.
Should Mr.. John Quincy Adams succeed
in his ambition, however, he will lower
the record on the proud Benjamin, for he
will not only be fourth in generation Of
Congressman and grandson of Presi-
dent, as is Mr.. Harrison, but great-grand-
son Of another President in the same line
rs well.

AN EXODUS OF NEGROES.
Trains for the River Counties of Ohio
and West Virginia EiIIad With Them

Trains for the River Counties of Ohio
and West Virginia Filled With Them.
Guests leaving this and other mountain
resorts, says a White Sulphur Springs
special of Oct. s, have viewed with grow
ing wonder during the past week the
rows of dusky faces that fill the windows
of trains bound westward. The faces be-
long to men. 1t is rare that a woman or
child is seen among them. So large is the
exodus that separate smoking cars Tor
white persons are called into requsitiOn
for nearly every train, by night as well as
by day. Train men report that similar
phenomena are observable at Charleston,
where the river division of the Ohio Cen
trail terminates; at Ashland, from which
the Scioto Valley Road runs to Columbus,
and at Lexington, where the Cincinnati
Southern abutS the Chesapeake and Ohio.
Each car is under the charge of Cap
tain.
Where these eXcursionists are going, at
whose expense-clearly not their own-or
for what, is something of mystery. They
are without traps, except what they wear,
and talk of their homes in Virginia as
though they were to be away but short
time. Each car load is made up of ac-
quaintances, and they make a jolly trip
OF 1t. Such illusions to politics as crop
out in their talk are involuntary and are
quickly smothered, the captain of each
car being very alert for transgressions in
this line. The men answer no questions
as to their destination, but their talk
turns frequently to speculations on the
kind of people they will find ''along the
river" The river, OF course, is the Ohio,
and the people ''along It's will vote In the
State of that name and in West Virginia.
The river counties of both States contain
so many negroes that they offer unusual
openings for a brisk smuggling trade in
persons of that complexion. If there is
any disposition to cOloniZe for election
purposes it can be done along the river
counties with less expense and less
danger than in the interior of either State.
The excursions have been in progress
through this State for about a week.
During the week remaining before cleo
ton, if the SciOtO Valley and Cincinnati
Southern shall do as we'll as the Chesa-
peake and Ohio is doing, 5000 voters can
easily be laid along the river counties of
the two States. One-half of that number
would give this State to the Republicans,
unless expectations of gains from the
Greenbackers are mistaken; while the
other half would probably be quite as
heavy quota as Ohio could stand from
the South and as large as would be needed,
considering the fertility of Indiana, Penn
sylvania and New York for such enter

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-The recent an
nouncement of the nomination OF John
Quincy Adams, of Massachusetts,. for
Congress calls attention to the grip that
certain families in this country have on
public life. The John Quincy Adams in
question is a grandson Of the illustrious
person whose name he bears, and conse-
quently great grandson of that other
Adams who was father of the son, and
President before him. He is also a son of
Charles Francis, who, although not Pres
ident, as was his father and grandfather,
has been member Of Congress.
as they were. Had he not declined,
the Forty-ninth Congress probably would
have not only had the honor of
having in it grandson and great grand
son of Chief Magistrates of the United
States, but also of having in the same
person a member Of a family whose every
generation has been represented in Con-
gress since the country had Congress.
JOnn ADAMS, Lne second HreSlQenG, was
member of the Continental Congress be-
fore he became President. His son, John
Quincy Adams, was member Of Con-
gress before he became President. Charles
Francis Adams, has son, was a member of
Congress before he fell victim to the
bunco man.
This somewhat remarkable succession
in Congressional office of the Adams fam
lily by every generation leads to some fur
Their inquiry upon the subject, and devel-
ops the somewhat interesting fact that
there are now two men in public life
whose families have been represented In
Congress by every generation since the
DAYS of the Continental Congress, and q
third whose Congressional record runs
back to within few years Of the Conti-
mental Congress. Two Of these three are
now in the Senate; the third has been
there, but is now In a Cabinet position.

Sister Grimes, Mistake.


Sister Grimes, after hearing the an
nouncement from the pulpit of the annual
camp meeting, at once determined to 60.
EFF the weather parmits,' said she to
aher friend, Miss Simpkins, ''and ProVi-
dence is willin', L shall go an stay
through the meetin'."
Accordingly the ancient hair trunk was
packed and Sister Grimes set out. The
first few miles were uneVenffIIl. and were
passed in counting the telegraph poles and
musing upon the infinite. Suddenly a
change came over the spirit of her dreams.
She sat upright with a startled express
sion, which soon changed to one of indig-
nation. Suddenly she faced about, and
addressing mild-lOoking man with a
white necktie, who sat behind her, in
quired in voice of terror:
"What do you mean by insulting me in
this mannerr
Indeed, madam"
''You needn't indeed, madam me.
You know you did it and you needn't deny
1t, you sanctimOniOus old hypocrite."
''Pray, excuse me, madame, but"
81 won't excuse you, you reprobate."
"What is the matter, madamY inquir-
ed the conductor, who was attracted by

MADAM" said the solemn-looking
man, ''what a monstrous fabrication"
Suppose you arise for a moment"
suggested the conductor.
"There, he's just done it again."
screamed Sister Grimes.
"Bless my soulp' CIRCULATED the ac-
cused.
Sister Grimes leaped from her seat to
the aisle, with fire in her eye, and the con-
ductor pulled from beneath the seat a
large bag, from hole in which prOtruded
the head of a large game cock, glazing
fiercely about and lunging with his power
full beak at whatever lay near.
MADAM, +" said the sOlemn-loOking man,
''you see it was your own wretched bird
that has done the mischief. You have
accused an innocent man of a heinous
offense, while you, yourself, are on your
way to attend a cock fight. Thus it IS
that Satan betrays his followers"

TattOoing Among Alaska Indians.

A man who has passed much time trap
ping and hunting in Alaska says: SAL
though the Yukon Indians have aban-
doned many of their old customs, under
the teaching of occasional missionaries,
all of them still keep to the queer habit of
tattooing. The way they do this is differ
emit from any ever saw or heard of. In
stead of pricking the stuff Ia with sharp
ened bones or needles, they make a paste
out of charcoal and grease, soak thread
in it, punch a needle through the flesh so
that it comes out different hole from the
one where it entered, and then draw the
thread through under the skin. The Ops-
ration is painful, for the flesh swells up
and looks very mueh infamed. Men
tattoo only their hsnds and wrists with
pictures OF the 0p5ler animals or fish, but
the women t94ctOo their faces also. These
latter begin the process when they are
quite youTg, making birds, turtles, Oh
some other insignificant things on theil
hands end wrists, while they draw lines
of different kinds on their chins and this
lowe part of their cheeks. AS a rul'

Dor and the sparseness of the population
afording peculiar opportunities for carry
ing on the nefarious business. Several
time efforts to catch the ghouls were
made, but proved unsuccessful except in
one case in Delaware county, where, at
least, one man was sent up for three
years, with the additional punishment OF
$1,000 fine. About six months ago
tremendous excitement was created
by the discovery of four or five
rifled graves at Baylor. An organ.
lied effort to stop the dissertation was
then determined upon, and a detective
was employed, who is still at work, but
so far without result. The excitement
had abated to considerable extent, when
last Friday the grave of Miss Dyer, at
FoStoria, was discovered to have been
robbed, and this was followed by a rumor
that the ghOuls were at work at Jones
town. Two fresh graves in the village
cemetery were examined and found
empty, the bodies taken being those OF
Henry Snyder and Maria Jacobs, both
middle-aged people.
To satisfy curiosity and to remove
doubts more than twenty graves Of per.
sons buried within two years were opened
and eleven were found empty. The dis
cOvery has created a profound sensation.
