NEW
VIBRATOR

1t is declared to be fact that tn.
state of Tennessee was carried fol
Cleveland last wear by systematic
frauds in seven of the western coun
ties. While East Tennessee showed a
republican gain of 9,546 over 1884. the
seven manipulated counties in West.
ern Tennessee show a democratic gain
of $50 over 1884. and a republican
loss of 4,417. The United States
grand jury sitting at Memphis indicted
100 citizens for election frauds. The
inmates OF the Jail in Memphis were
taken out by the democrats and voted
in various places, the cohvicts going
from one district to another In the
manipulated counties ballot boxes
were removed and stuffed or the votes
changed before counting. Poll books
were written up to order, and every
other deviltry that could be used to
subvert the will of n free people was
unhesitatingly resorted to. This is the
southern idea of the sanctity of the
ballot. Every congressional seat in
the western counties of Tennessee
should be contested when congress
meets. Blade.
