the devil out of Butte he would regard it as
one of his greatest achievements. When he

Of Mississippi. F. H. Threct Of Alabama
both colored, and f 'gsr Allen and F. T
McCue, whites, of Virginia. on the subject
of the necessity wh ch they alleged eIi-te 4
for federal election laws in their States
Lynch said he wanten to call attention to
some improper methods prevailing in Miss
issippi in the conduct of elections which
bad come un Ter his personal observations.
He said that probably there were 5000 to
80. eco more colored voters in Mississippi
than white voters. third of the white
voters were republicans, and tenth Of the
negroes voted the democratic ticket, yet
the State is always relied upon to return a
democratic msjori'y. He related the diff
ference of the methods By which he as
serted the results were accomplished. The
method generally adopted vas to change
the ballots.
during election day be said the election
officers would take recesa for dinner, or
other purposes. Officers separated, the
democrats taking the ballot box. and the
republicans the key to the same. The
democrats would change several hundre d
votes, when the votes were counted, would
be found the democrats had Q ma rify
Among other methods by which democratic
ms jorities we're returned, the rejection of
returns by some county returning board for
trlfiing irreRuiariis the failure to hold
elections in some precincts for . trivial
cause and the formation of election pre-
cir cts in q manner to prevent republicans
