flames were seen shooting up in the direc-

alarm, either, for tho tent belonging to a.

across the creek had caught fire. 1t soon
burned down, together with all the belong

vented the flames from spreading to ada

The Troy Election NIurders.

Troy has added another chapter to New
York's disgraceful political record. Troy
has always been lively town on election
day, for its politicians are the most
"practicap' IN the state, outside of New
York city. Seldom do the polls close IN
Troy that the country is not treated to
tale of riot, disorder intimidation, and
sometimes murder. This time it was
murder. The Democratic managers were
running in repeatcrs at one of the pre-
cincts, as is their wont in Troy, and two
Republican watchers protested. They
even went SO far as to push one of the
fraudulent voters away as he was about
to enter the polling booth. This was the
signal for battle. bat" Shea, one of
tie Democratic heelers, fired at the watch.
er2 and ley returned the fire. One OF
the watchers was killed and the othez
rlorte!ly wounded. Shea was killed IN
stantly. It painfully evident from thie
that the Lesson OF the wholesale convic
tions of violatera OF election law in the
metropolis has not reached ns far ss
Troy. There must be come decent Tro-
jams, and, If there are, they should organ
!ze and prosecute the thugs and plug
uglieS that Disgrace the city at every elec-
ton until Sing Sing is crowded with
them. 1. is one of the burning disSracer
of this country that crimes against TIC
franchioe are committed with greater in.
punity than any other species Of felony.
Tie good work begun in New York city
should be taken up everywhere and kept
up until it Is az unsafe to tri1e with the
ballot as 1t Is to take e human life
