The Ballot Boxes Used In the Ohio
Elections.

Perkins of Kansas, moved to suspend
the rules and put upon its passage the Sen.
ate bill for the organization of the Terri
tory Of Oklahoma. with the House substi-
tute therefor The motion was lost.
Houk of Tennessee, called up the con.
tested election case of Feaiherston W.
Cate.
Uuthwaite Of Ohio. in advocating the
case of the contestee. exhibited the double
action ballot box. which the republicans
assert was used in 81 precincts. and which
ems bled the precinct judges to cast aside
the vote Of any ps rson they might see fit
He showed the manipulation by which
such judges could deceive the voter and
lead him to believe that his ballot was
properly deposited.
Ee quoted from the returns of precinc's
where it is alleged these were used in order
to show the vote for Fea,hers,one far ex-
ceeded that for Cate. and further asserted
there WAS not particle of evidence in the
case to show that such q box as he now pre-
sented WAS used at elections. The ballot
box was brought into the case by attorney
for contestant, and nobody had told where
it had come from. The speaker in speak
ing of the ballot box, said some people
were inclined to think if certain ballot
boxes, with accompanying forgery, had
been kept out of the Ohio campaign the
result of the late election might have been
different.
Pending further debate the House at SIS
adjourned.
