FRIDAY. NOVEMBER II, 1886.
THE OFFICIAL COUNT.

We publish table this week giving
the official vote of Allen county on
State, Congressional and County off,
GERS, on the Judicial Amendment and
on the proposition to sell the poor
farm. By strange blunder on the
part of the clerks of the election in
Deer Greek township, the tally sheet
of that precinct made 1t appear that
C. J. Cease received 81 votes for coun-
ty attorney, and C. E. Benton 20 votes
for probate judge. This blunder was
corrected on the certificate 80 far as
Mr.. Benton and Mr.. Cease were con.
cerned, but another one was made in.
certifying that 81. A. Ewing received
IS votes for Clerk of tn District Court.
OF course every one knows that the 20
votes received by Mr.. Benton were
cast for him for county attorney, and
the S. votes received by Capt. Ewing
were cast for him for the same Office
But the Commissioners in canvassing
the vote are not allowed to assume any
thing. They have to canvass it as it
appears on the face of the returns.
They may correct the certificate by
the tally sheet. but they cannot go::back
Of the tally sheet. Hence they count
ed Mr.. Benton's votes for Probate
Judge, as they appeared, the result
being to give Capt. Ewing q majority
of 10 for the Office of County Attorney.
We are very sorry these blunders oc-
CURED, for it gives the democrats .
chance to howl that the republican
board has counted Benton out, when
as a matter Of fact and of law they
could not have done. otherwise than
they did.
But the democrats need not be
ARMED or excited. Nobody is going to
be "counted out" Mr.. Benton will of
course contest the case, and just a.
soon as it can be brought before court
that has power to go behind the re-
turns, the mistake will be corrected 30 |
far as Deer Creek township is concern

that this contest will do, which will
be worth all the trouble and expense
it will occasion. 1t will open up the |
ballot boxes in other parts of the coun-
ty and let the people know just what |
figure was cut in the late election by
fraudulent and illegal ballots. Att

might as well state here that to do |

that he was duly elected.
In saying this we wish it distinctly
understood that we do not accuse Mr..
Benton personally of having anything
whatever to do with the fraudulent
ballots that were used to further this
election. We are told, and we believe,
that he had no idea they were to be
used until the morning of the election,
and that he then especially cautioned
his supporters not to offer them to any
voter without first explaining them to
him. But the gang that backed Mr..
Benton-not through love of him, but
to accomplish selfish and personal
ends-were utterly INSCRIPTIONS and
corrupt. That they paid no attention
to his injunction, even in this precinct,
We know, and there is every reason to
believe that in other precincts the
same deception was practiced yet
more successfully. It is in the hope of
letting daylight in upon this matter
that this contest is begun. The peo-
pie of Allen county want an honest
ballot as well as free one.
And as we said above, nobody need
be alarmed about fair count. Capt.
Ewing and Mr.. Benton are both hon
orable and highminded gentlemen.
Mr.. Ewing does not want the Office I'M
Less it can be made clear to all the
world that he is entitled to it. Mr..
Benton, we are certain, will not touch
it If he believes it is tainted with fraud.
We are in Kansas, not in Mississippi,
and the thing that 10 right is the
thing that will be done.

Whether an election to Congress
would yindicate Mr.. Goode, who is con-
Sidered by his friends everywhere as
simply a victim Of Mahone's hatred,
backed by Republican senator's, is a
question that need not DO discussed. It
is a seli.eyident proposition.
That the people Of the Second dis
trict should do all things in their power
TO repay Mr.. Goode for the sacrifice Of
his law business. his bold and fear
less defence Of their rights under pecu-
liar circumstances, admits, in our own
Inipd, Of no doubt.
When Mr.. Goode first consented to
become candidate for Congress from
that district, against his interests and
inclinatiOis, he was doing q lucrative
business in the practice Of his profess
sion, and had a comfortable home to
shelter his family and himself. When
bis term Of service expired his practice
had been swept away, and ne returned

condition--so much so as to compel
him, as an honest man, to sell mis- pro-

To Be Disappointed.

Mr.. COOPER, Of England, seems to
have had in Virginia sn experience
somewhat like that Of CHARLES H., OF
bis own country, who on his triumphal
journey to London at the time Of the
Restoration, asked, Where ere my
enemies? ?" Messrs. JOHN A. HAM.
ELTON & Co. quote MIR. COOPER as
follows:
"Mr. Cooper, the English Virgins
bopdbol6er who has been visiting Vir-
eipis. returned this week and expresses
himself as well pleased with the pros
peets Of the bondholders. MIR. Cooper
has spent n month in Virginia, has ira.
YELLED over every section of the State,
and is most enthusiastic in his belief
that the people of Virginia are anxious
aud willing to make . just and equits-
BILE settlement with the creditors Of the
State, and that a movement will soon DO
inaururated to abandon the Riddleberger
settlement and make more just COM
promise Of the debt based upon the sbil-
ity Of the State to pay. This comedies
with our own information and with the
sentiment expressed by the leading
newspapers Of the State outside oil the
city Of Richmond. We hear great
deal about the determination of the
people Of Virginia to insist upon tho
Riddleberger coercion and to compel
the bondholdeIs to accept these terms
or nothing; but when we meet gentle
men from Virginia we find that the
people Of the State are misrepresented,
and that there is Q strong desire aud
determination TO put stop to the policy
Of illegal resistance to the rights OF the
creditors Of the State and to demand
that the State authorities take steps to
bring about an honorable and just set
Element of the State debt"
Mr.. COOPER makes no allowance for
the proverbial politeness of the people
of Virginia. They do not tell him to
bis face that he is on q wild-goose chase.
That's all. In Virginia there will soon
be in the field from twelve to twenty
candidates for Congress, Republican
and Democratic. OF these candidates
not one, we take it, will say on the
stump that he is in favor of paying one
dollar more of the State debt than is
provided for by the RIDDLEBERGER
bill. Such candidates keep their hands
on the public pulse. Let Mr.. COOPER
consult them.
