that South Carolina is pot the
only State in the Union that fail
ed to vote their strength in the
tlll election OF 1888. In 1880 it
is estimated that 3373.643 voters
failed to vote. of this number
1.SSS243 were from Northern
Republican States, while l,4S4-
500 were from Democratic Stat
es. In 1888. 4,774487 voters
failed to catt a ballot, OF these
2. 920.343 were from republican
States, While l.654.l44 were
from Democratic States, showing
that l.069l99 more votes were
suppressed in Republican States
than in Democratic States. In the
face OF these figures American
should bring something more
logical than the suppression Of a
lew Republican votes of South
: Carolina TO show that Mr.. Har-
rison shuuld have had the pop
ular vote of the country. We
