FORK FOB THE GRAND JURY TO DO.
VIOLATIONS OF THE ELECTION LAWS WHOM


VIOLATIONS OF THE ELECTION LAWS WH1o0
HAVE NOT BEEN PUNISHED.
The election is and there Is natural tendency
TO bury out OF sight everything connected with It, bus
the sanctty OF the ballot box demands that the Grand
Jury should take immediate steps to Investigate the
many violations Of the laws which occurred In tho
days Of registration and election day. The Tribune
and other newspapers have pointed out many cases
Of frand and crime in which Tammany men were en-
gagged, and the Grand Jury II to the community
10 find indictments against the men who have set
the laws at defiance. on election day there occurred
a number OF outrages voters and election officers
which were clearly nfractlons Of tho statutes. Men
were thrown out Of polling places who had perfect
right to be there, and violence was used In other
instances.
A number OF cases OF colonization have been made
public which demand the attention OF the Grand Jury.
In tho With Assembly District, there were many
such which described in Tho Tribune. In the
house Of ill-famc at No. 1Oj Clinton Place, known a.
the Riato. which was the headquarters OF a Tanmany
club, twenty men were registered. The ex-
posure of the fraud and the raid on the house BY
Police Captain Brogan's men, frightened some OF the
cOlOnsts, only sixteen voted from the house.
There be 10 question about the guilt OF some or
all of tine eleven who did not vote. II they had
legal residence in the place. than sixteen OF the
twenty seven would undoubtedly have voted.
Seven men were also Illegally registered from No
1874 Macdouga-st. a house, but none OF these
tried 70 vote. Two OF tho men who registered from
Nos 100 and 1872 Macdouga-st We're arraigned In
police court but there Others who said they lived
in the place who were not entitled TO register TO
vote.
number OF inmates Of city institutions also regis
tered although they clearly had no right to do SO.
and some OF them swOrc in their votes. There were
dozens OF violations OF the law Of this kind. The
Grand Jury has investigated perhaps half dozen
eIn m and has fnd1ctmenta.
number OF cases will be laid before the United
States Grand Jury. and when indictments are found.
the United states DstrictAttorney will prosecute tho
accused vigorously.
The Investigation OF violations OF the election laws
Is not a political affair for the Is one In which
all good citizens would like To see the guilty men
punished The Grand Jury has material enough 70
20 to work on, and the OF good government
demands that Justice be meted out to the rascas ~
once.
