JUDGE AYREs decides that he has power to
appoint a commission to recount votes, and to
issue an order to them detailing how it shall
be done. He also decides that this order may
be fagrantly and notoriously violated in his
very courtroom, and that he has no power to
remedy the wrong or to punish those who
openly and insultingly express their contempt
for his court Judge Ayres will not be very
much older before he learns that this is not
learn it too late to save himself. He has
given rein to those who did not believe from
the first that he intended to interfere with
whatever his party friends might do.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1885-11-02

JUDGE AYRES prescribed a method for the
recount. A difference of opinion arose be-
tween the commissioners. Judge Ayres put
it in writing at midnight that, unless there
could be "peaceabe procedure" by "unani-
nous agreement" he would hear and deter
mine the matter. His creature pocketed that
order until he had left town, and then took q
Ratchet and broke open a ballot box 1t was
only possible for authority to have been given
for this act in the midnight interview with
Coy and Sullivan, or over the telephone from
Danville. Was such authority given in either
instance? If not, the act was unauthorized,
and in defiance of the written order of the
Judge. And yet, with this state Of facts
Judge Ayres says he can do nothing Mr.
Holt and the other Ayres owe it to themselves,
if they had authority for their violation Of the
midnight order, to tell the public what it was
and when they received it. So far as the
record shows, the order of the court was de-
family set aside. What, if anything trans
pired that is not in the record9 There will be
natural curiosity until the mystery is ex-
planned.

A PEOPLE that do not care enough for the
suffrage to defend it will soon lose it. If the
act of Sterling r. Holt, in breaking open a
ballot box with Ratchet, is to be passed
without comment, it will be because the
rights Of the people Of Indianapolis have been
committed to unworthy hands, or because the
people themselves are not worthy the high
and sacred privilege and responsibility of free
suffrage. Such acts as Mr.. Hollis are not
light matters, Notwithstanding they may be
committed on occasions which do not seem to
involve much. The act is the same, whether
the result involved be an alderman or Pres
ident of the United States.

The common people of Foo Chow, China,
appear to be much like those of Montreal
very superstitious, credulous and religious.
At the latter place, the churches have gath
cred the people to implore divine interposition
to stay the plague of smallpox, instead of re-
sorting to vigorous and systematic cleaning
up and vaccination. AS a result, there is no
interposition, and the populace continue to
die like flies. At Foo Chow they had relig-
ious parade, much the same as at Montreal,
and worshiped two idols, the "Tall White
Devil" and the ''Short Black Devil" the idea
being to thus reduce the ravages made by
cholera. Instead of doing so, it appears that
of the twenty deaths that occurred i'm
mediately following the parade, all had par
ticipated in it. 1t is pretty well established
that the prayer cure will not avail in these
two epidemics, at least.

Ii the recount was legal part of the city
election; if the box in which the ballots were
locked, under the sacredness of judicial pro-
ceeding, was box used at that election, and
if to take a Ratchet and break it open is an
'unlawful' way of opening such a box, then,
we submit, that the act of Sterling R. Holt,
on Tuesday morning last, is of character
that demands judicial investigation, to see
whether Section 2l95 of the Revised Statutes
has or has not been violated. It is for such
things that the people pay for a Criminal
Court and elect prosecuting attorney.

Indianapolis People.
We have no sympathy with ballot-box suffers
or ballot box breakers. This to begin with. If
we desire that our government shall be pre-
served, we must guard with jealous care and
hold inviolate and inviolable the ballot-box
that great palladium of our liberties The
man who hampers with ballots and the ballot
box cannot possibly be good citizen. He may
be a politician, but certainly not a patriot.
Hardly any punishment would be too severe for
the ballot box suffer or the wanton ballot box
breaker No party should be sustained in a

Holt did an unlawful thing and he and
his aiders and abettors should be punished for
it. The ballots were virtually out of
the possession of the counters when they were
put back, sealed, into the bags and box. They
had no authority for another count With as
much proprety they could have made dozen
recounts. One recount made and their duty
was done But not so pretended to think the
Democratic counters and watchers. They pro-
ceeded to another recount-contrary to law
against the plain order of Judge Ayres, and sue

it, and if there is any law the perpetrators
should be punished. 1t is all stuff about the
majority ruling A majority, even, cannot rule

evil. Another recount could be had with as
much propriety and as much law and authority
as the second 1t was lawless proceeding and
as such should be condemned by all good citizens

1T is not that Mr.. Pritchard might lose his

Every other INSCRIPTIONS partisan act Of the
Democratic recount board might well have
been left for correction to the peaceful meth
DDS provided by law. But when Sterling r.
Holt took a Ratchet to break open a ballot-box
he committed an unspeakable and dangerous
outrage-an outrage against the sanctity of
the ballot; high-handed and fagitious con-
tempt against the court-whether the present
judge knows or cares makes no difference in
the fact-and unsettled the future security Of
elections. If Mr.. Holt can break open bal

not he, or some other partisan ruffian, break
open one being used in the first count, or one
being used before there is any count at all7

of a Ratchet against ballot-box can be JUST
