three corresponding with his descrip-
ton, except that they contained Peck s
name. If he is mistaken, he in fact
voted for Peck instead of Seeds. This
accounts for the sixth ballot missing.
A. Gantenbine says he voted for
Seeds and his brother also. He says
his ballots are not here. We are unable
to determine which tickets are here
written by him.
MIR. Peck testiies that all the ballots
received by him as judge of election
were placed in box and honestly
counted. The other members of board
and the spectators are positive in their
opinions that no ballots were obstruct-
ed or found inside.
Since the close of the argument we
have considered the evidence for al
most two entire days and have at times
entertained doubts whether the evil
dence would not warrant us in finding
that fraud was perpetrated in Jefferson
as charged and that returns from said
township should be excluded from the
count; and if so found we would not
have besitated to have applied the
remedy afforded by law and rendered
our decision for confession, but after re-
viewing tue decisions of the courts in
similar cases we are of the opinion
that the contestor has failed to estab-
his claim of fraud and corruption in
Jefferson township by preponderance
of evidence.
All authorities hold that the returns

our Oldest citizens and native born boys
are not put down by the incoming mass of
money seekers. Do not let them disfran-

not respect our rights; let us force this
respect which is due from the opposite side
