CHARLESTON. s. c., Nov. St was discovered
today that serious error had been made in
printing the Democratic electoral ticket in this
state which will result in their being thrown
out unless corrected. The tickets have been in
the hands of the commissioners for some time
and have been partly distributed. 1t is hard to
tell what portion OF the tickets sent out ile-
gal. Most Of those heard from are one-sixteenth
OF an inch too long, some are too small and some
too large. The Law says tnat they must be FIVE
by two and one-half inches Strenuous efforts
will be made to remedy the error.
