were several hundred more votes in the
box than there were names on the tally
sheet of votes cast. There were 94O
votes in the box. The clerk, q. M.
Smell. was asked to produce the tally
sheet for the extra votes found In
the box. He claimed that he did not
have it; that he had taken it home and
would produce it in the morning. A
great cry then went up from the out
side, and Sergeant Morton was asked to
step in and prevent riot. He declined,
as he had no right to interfere with the
count, and no breach of the peace had
occurred. So it was continued until the
end.
A DoUBLE-ACTIoN BALLoT-Box.
After the count was finished, it was
easy to account for the 200 extra names
in the box. 1t had been stuffed. A
large crack was found in the back Of the
box, through which tickets could be
showed. During the day the judge and
the clerks were requested to turn the
box around, but they refused to do 80.
After it was ascertained that the
crooked work had been accomplished, a
large crowd assembled and went to the
rooms of the county committee, and
registered strong protest. They had
the ballot box and the votes with them
as evidence.
IN THE EIGHTH.
Down in the Eighth ward there were
three tickets in the field, and while
there was great deal of contention no
serious fights are to be recorded. The
battle there was between the McLaln
and the Cline forces, with Constable
Clements as an intermediate iseue. The
McLain ticket was showed under. The
Cline ticket carried the ward. There
were nearly $50 votes cast, and there are
only $50 Republican votes in the ward.
The McLain forces were strongly
backed up and probably would have car
ried the ward if it had not been for the
fact that at 80 p. m. George Flint, who
was handling the McLain end disap-
peared from the polling place and was
not again seen. He had all OF 'the
stuff" 80 it is said, and the consequence
was that the Cline men had an easy
thing of it.
A cLERGYMAN's OPINION.
Rev. John II. Collins was at every
polling place yesterday watching the
methods used by the Republican ward
leaders, and their emissaries, to carry
the primaries. He stated last evening
to representative of the HERALD that
they were the most disgraceful he had
ever seen anywhere at any time, and he
had seen some tough primaries.
"Why, "said Rev. Collins, Indignantly.
81 saw one man in the Eighth ward pay
500 for seventeen votes. l saw the
money turned over, and then | saw those
identical men put into carriages and
driven to the Second ward, where they
repeated" Mr.. Collins will preach a
sermon on.Sunday next taking for his
text the scenes, incidents and practices
he witnessedsat the primary election of
the Grand Old Republican party yester-
day. !.
1t was indeed spectacle, the like OF
which has never been seen in this city.
