-Ex-President Harrison returned to In
dianapolis last week. Before his arrival
at his old home he received full proof
of the afectionate regard entertained
for him by his friends, neighbors and
townsmen. A special committee met him
twenty miles east of the Indiana State line
and gave him foretaste of the welcome
that awaited him in Indianapolis The
principal demonstration there took the
form of a reception in the State House.
The addresses of welcome were couched
in the warmest terms, and Mr.. Harrison
replied in a speech full of feeling. OF
course there was an element of sadness in
his return alone at this time, and to his
deep affection more than one tender re
ference was made.

than a square, had reduced To ashes several

Of panic and distress never before cqusled

The Portland Ballot Fraud.

Ward l. in Portland, last week, afford
ed an example of crookedness In city cleo
tons, such as one sees but few times in
whole century. Proof Of palpable glar-
Ing fraud perpetTated there demonstrates
that in order to carry the ward for the
Democrats theft Of the ballots was resort
Ell TO. The fraud was engineered in
simple way. When the polls were closed
in ward | on the evening of election a
Democrat who knew the count told the
Press representative that about ll60 votes
had been thrown. When the vote was de-
clared it showed nearer 1850 The city
Clerk had sent 2000 ballots to ward in
the morning. The law requires that un-
used and defaced ballots shall be returned
to the city clerk. The number on the re-
turned ballots subtracted from the 1000
would show the total vote in ward /. An
inspection showed that the returned ballots
had been tempered with. A bundle of 100
had been stolen from the package after it
had been deposited in the city clerks office.
The Argu. of Saturday in its editorial col
umns says:
That there was an attempt made to falsi-
fly the election returns from ward /, the
developments of yesterday appear to
show cOnclusively. The warden of that
ward, in his Official returns, gives 10 the
total vote for the mayoralty candidates
a. l,241. A careful examination of the
certified voting lists used in ward l on
election day, March 9Th, made yesterday
by committee consisting Of Democrats
and Republicans discloses the fact that
only l, 1913 names of voters upon these lists
were checked as having voted for the
mayoralty candidates on that day. This
finding makes it evident that the total vote
for mayoralty candidates as returned by
the warden was 81 votes in excess of what
it should have been returned, if returned
correctly.
When the facts of this fraud became
known to Mayor Ingraham he refused to
accept the Office of mayor under the recent
election. He says he is not willing to hold
office 'unless the title is undoubted."
That is right. The act does him credit
The guilty warden is still at large. On
him should be inflicted all the pains and
penalties Of the law. A man thus guilty
should be made to wear forever the curse
of Cain.

The Duty of Republicans.

Monday next is to be the decisive day
as to who shall be at the head of the Els
worth city government during the coming
year. 1t is a question of no Sigh. i'm
portance On the decision of that day as

the prosperity of Ellsworth and the

The present status of affairs in the
municipal situation in our good city, may
be set forth as follows: On Monday
March 8, at our city election the vote

$50; Albert II. Norris, Republican, had 3S4
votes, Nehemiah H. Higgins, Jr., Demo
crat, had 373 votes; Albert F. Burnham,
Peoples Party, had 20 votes. There was
therefore no choice of mayor, Mr., Norris
lacking only five votes of an election.
The aldermen elected in the several
ward, are as follows: In ward /, Everett
S. Means, Rep. ward ?, John 2. Eldridge,
Rep; ward 3, Martin II. Haynes, Rep;
