FRAUDULENT REGISTRATION IN PIILA-
DELPHiA.

Robert Welsh. III the November Forum.
The expediept by which the Lincoln
Independents supplied the Republican
voters in Philadelphia with vest-pocket
election-tickets unexpectedly brought to
light the extent to which election frauds
based on false registration had been car
ried by the Republican party leaders. ana
led to the prompt enactment of a more
strict registra tion law, which will greatly
aid in excluding such frauds in future.
The Lincoln Committee sent out to reg
istered voters. presumably Republicans,
ID the cityof Philadelphia. election tick
cts in $50, coo two-cenr stamped envelopes.
The names of the voters thus supplied
were taken directly from the official reg
istration list. More than fifteen thousand
of these letters were returned to the COM
mittee by the postoffice authorities,
marked mot found" The inference was
plain. The registration list had been
swelled, between June and September. to
the number of aIittle less than fifteen
thousand names. Investigation has since
shown that 16. 900 fictitious names were
on the list, under cover of which swarms
of r~epeaters and FOUNDERS got in their
fine work. on election day. There is
good reason to believe that the leaders
depended on a reserve fraudulent vote,
ranging from fifteen thousand to twenty
Thousand. to offset the Independent vote.
