PHILADELPHIA Inquirer, Nov. IT,
Thousands of Democrats voted al
the recent election in this city upon
bogus tax receipts. What is going
to be done about these outrageous
fraudsi
The voting in most instances was
done innocentlY. The men who
furnished the receipts were the
criminals. Who were these men,
and what is gong to be done about
their crime!
Who are the men? Why, they are
known. They are not small men
FOUNDERS and heelers-but they be-

who manage the party in this city.
They have been caught in their
crime. They have issued bogus poll
tax receipts. They bought no gen.
uine receipts for the many thousands
Of Democrats whose receipts had
expired. Instead they had bogus
blanks made. They forged the
names Of tax clerks They initiated
the city seal. They sent these bogus
receipts out broadcast. By this
method they expected to carry Phil
adelphis.
A more gigantic conspiracy tol
stealing a city WAS never engineered
And this was done by men who have
been high in the management Of
local Democratic politics; men who
have had pulls" in various directions
who have managed to keep friends
or relatives from paying mercantile
taxes.

Eens of Philadelphia are invited tc

receipts were sent ont by the thou
sauds and voted upon, and now the
