and Challengers Daily Appointed
to Assist In Conducting the
Election Nov. sth, 1899.

Den;ucratic Executive Committee Of
this county to act at the different
voting places in the county at the
Election to be held Tuesday, Nov.
9Th, 1899; The New Law allows
the Chairman or Executive Com
mittee of the two great parties to
name a man to represent each party
ct each voting place, and no one
else has any right to challenge
mans vote. The duties of these
officers under tho New Election
Law are very important, and much
for the purity of the ballot and the
successful operation Of this system
depends on the ability, honesty and
vigilance of these Challengcrs.
Tho second named at each voting
place are the parties who have been
selected and duly appointed as Elec-
ton Clerks at the different voting
places in the county, under the law
allowing the Democrats TO mamie one

law requires the Clerks to be quail
fed voters OF the Poll at which they
CLERK, and under the New law
their duties are very important, as
they furnish the tickets 20 the Yo-
tiers ana help them make them out
when called on to do so. The law
is very strict, too, on this point,
for if any Clerk deceives the voter
OF fails to prepare the tickets us re-
quested or divulges how man
