oUAY's LATEST.

In our news columns will be found an
authentic exposition of a scheme to
steal the electoral votes Of three states
ia ls9a. The scheme is equalled in
brlzen rascality only by the notorious
deeds of MATHEW STANLEY QUAY in
ISIS, by which the nation was robbed
of It's suffrage right
The engineer of this new scheme is
the same MATHEW STANLEY QUAY. 1t is
proposed. in brief, to transport enough
southern negroes into the States Of
West Virginia, Indiana aud Couuecti-
cut 20 overcome the legal Democratic
maioritics OF those States.
The New York World is our authori-
ty. Il publishes detailed statement,
which consists OF documentary facts
and data and autograph letters from
QUAY himself.
The Republican Congressman from
these States which QrAY intends 90 coli
onize are parties 10 the scheme. The
correspondence published includes let
tiers from Mr.. G.. w. ATKINSON and Mr..
G.. Il. SVru and other prominent Re
publicans Of West Virginia.
The expose clears up the mystery of
QUAY's opposition 20 the force bin,
which people wondered at lie has a
better scheme than that TO defeat the
will OF the people.
The REGISTER lays these facts before
the people OF West virsiuia-bcfore the
honest Republicans Of West Virginia
without comment.
