Tho ChallsnRers the Trouble
Ex Clerk OF the Senate W. Ia. G. Hard
castle, OF Smyrna. does not favor Senator
Pyes bill which abolishes the Office OF
voters assistants at the general election
Mr. Hafdcastle, who Is one OF the most
astute and experienced politicians OF
/ Dnck Creek hundred says that the
fault Is rot with the voters gssisi ants so
much as with the challengers who have
access to the voting room and use their
opportunity to assist materially in the
work OF bribery In his opinion the law
should be so amended ,as to compel the
ohallengers to remain beyond the chain
When they challenge q man for anv
cause they should only be allowed Ia the
voting room long enough to state their
objections, and should be compelled to
retire before the election officers have
passed upon the qualifications Of the
voters SO challenged AS the matter,now
Is they stand at the door OF the voting
room all the time they are not inside,
and when they ID 20 inside they remain
until the elector in question has been
voted or refused the privilege
