Special Telegram to the Register.
CHARLESTON, W. VA, November 26.-
1t is learned from tbs most reliable source
this evening that the poll hooks in Alum
Creek district show that the 36 Democratic
votes Tailed for President, Governor and
county ticket, and the 16 votas Tailed for
the Union Labor ticket have been erased.
The original tally can be seen through a
powerful magnifying glass. The Democrats
claim they can prove that the 81 Demo
cratic and 16 Union Labor tickets were
taken out and straight Republican tickets
substituted therefor, and the erased tally
sheets made to tally with their substituted
ballots. The vote of this precinct was left
at Republican headquarters and subse-
quently taken to the County Clerk Office.
This is tie most palpable Of all the
frauds perpetrated in this county. There
are quite number Of leading Republicans
who are shaking in their boots tonight.
Ia connection with thu rsturns from this
precinct it may be stated that the envelope
and file box for this precinct were return
ed with the envelops omitted and the file
box sealed with mucilsge, while all the
rsss of the returns from the county dis
tricts were brought in tied. This isolated
case of sealing is regarded as suspicious.
A HOST OF REPEATERs.
The Democrats now have the names OF
fifteen persons who repeated in Charleston
district and expect to increase the number
20 200 in the county before the wor k OF
iuve isigation is concluded.
