Our Democratic friends say both BY
resolution OF their county convention
and by Individual expression, legslizs
the primary elections, that fraud may
be prevented. So say Republicans one
and all, legalize the primaries, bat first
of all they say legalze the elections
that are now purported to be held &C
cording to law, but which are nothing
but bald farces owing TO an assessment
law which not only condones fraud
but purposely makes fraud easy
Democrats are holding up their hands
in holy horror q. the frauds praoticed
ut the nomination election last Satur.
day, and they are importunAte for .
law TO prevent such frauds In the fu-
ture. Let us ask our Democratic
friends q question right here. We're
the primary unlegaltzed frauds of last
Saturday more bold, daring and in
iquitous than the legallzed frauds OF
just one week before In the Third and
Eleventh wards? The latter were le-
galized, and yet we hear not word OF
condemnation against them from Demo
cratic leaders. The ballot was de-
bauched and the people defrAuded
through the operations OF the Demo
cratic assessment Law OF 1873; . law
passed with the perfect understanding
that, enforced by Democratic partisan
tax collectors, wonld defraud . suffi.
oisnt number OF Republicans out OF
their votes to keep the Democrats In
the ascendAncy. We tell our Demo
cratic friends that II they would have
honest primary elections, they mus
have honest general and municipal
elections, and II they would have the
latter they must repeal the present laws
and the laws In relation to the collec-
tion Of taxes. A law to legslizs pri-
maries would be useless while tax col
lectors have the power TO regulate the

whom they will. IL will be Just ~
easy for q collector to send out bundles

primary election rs 1t would be to send
them out at any o.her legalized cleo

held by all parties are the outgro wth OF
the enforcement OF the assessment laws
In the spirit in which they were In
tended TO be enforced, and no law to
legalize these primaries will be AvAilA.

lous politicians and partisan tax COL

say again that CALLED primary cleo

Let the Democrats purify the present

eliminate them to the possibilities OF
fraud, and then the primary elections

AT LAST the Third and Tenth wards
have been heard from, and they come
with an avalanche OF Cham bers votes
that has completely buried Mr.. Lamb
son and all other competitors out OF
sight. The Tenth ward WAS . sumner
with rs 1907 votes for Cham bers, but
the Third ward with its 1,075 votes for
the same gentleman was q regular
knock down to all who made any pre-
teuce Of standing In his way. We are
not surprised that Democrats stand
aghast at the vote as If their breath had
been knocked out Of them. We might
pity them were 1t not that their own
machine has turned out q boomerang,
and the weapons they made to destroy
the Republican party have been used
for their own destruction. No houesl
man for moment believes that either
the Third or the Tenth wards contain
anything like the Democratic vote re-
ported. But the fraud was not all CON
hned to those wards. The election wss
nothing but bald farce all over the
city, and where the Lambson, the Allen
and Smith men cheated come, the
Chambers men only took the matter in
hand and went few turns Of the ma
chine better In their own wards. The
result is the action of trained Demo
cratic FOUNDERS and repeaters, taught tc
cheat Republicans, but turned upon
their masters in fraud and prscticed
only what they had been taught. Every
honest citizen will rejoice to see the
bottom falling out of the Democratic
sub, and II the result will hereafter be
honest election laws, honest elections
and an honest collection OF taxes, the
frauds of last Saturday will have
played good part after all.

THE THIRD Is the banner Democratic
ward. At the Presidents election in
1884, Ole Roland had $40 votes, Blaine
357; total vote, 1877. At the Mayors
election year ago, RhosdS had 626,
Conrad 3Sl, total 957. The Democratic
vote alone on Saturday last vas 1,4s3,
be sting the whole vote by $50, and the
whole vote for Mayor last year by 526.
II the hIghest Republican vote Of the
ward. which is 357, was added 10 the
Democratic vote Of last Saturday, the
