II anything has come to light to the

Of Richmond. it is the disgraceful fact
that few, If single election, has been
held in this city during the past num-
Der OF years. I'm ~hich there has been

fraud and absolute unhtness on tie part
OF those who have had the handling and
counting of the ballots mas been the
cause OF this thing.

THE GREATEST ISSUE.

Tho Petersburg lndexApDeal makes
this point for honest elections:
The issue in Virginia now IL not whether
Mckinley or Bryan shall be elected Presi-
dent of the United States. but whether
our elections snail be honest or not
That f. Of infinitely more importance
than the Presidency OF the United states.
which + already settled without the aid
OF Virginia. The fight Is on In earnest
and IL will not end With the election on
the ID Of November Indeed. IL viii not

ing legislation is wiped from our statute

The Roanoke Times. a strong free silver

The Times does not expect 70 see a
fair and honest election in Virginia under
the present election law. The law was
made for the purpose Of preventing such

Why Is IL that the people who represent
