TO CONTEST MIR. EPEs's SEAT.
The Notice Served On the Congress
man-EIcct Yesterday.

mau-tlcct 1esterduy.
Notice Of contest was served on Mr..
Sydney p. Epes. of the Fourth District.
yesterday.
The notice IS a voluminous document.
of dfty-two long, typewriter pages. and
may be characterized. in the phraseology
Of the lawyers. as "scandalous and I'M
pertinent"
It IS full Of generalities, charges con
spiracy'' at nearly every precinct in the
district: alleges all manner Of malefea-
sance by election officers. and claims all
the negro vote as of right belonging TO
MIR Thorp.
Mr. Epes's friends assert, on the con-
trary. that a very large per cent. OF
the most reputable and influential white
Republicans had been estranged from
Thorp by his sudden flop from an ar
dent advocate Of free silver 10 pro-
nOunced gold man. Yet all, or nearly all.
the gold Democrats in the district voted
Cor Epes. They say too. that the many
Populists in the Fourth District were
especially indignant with Thorp for his
abandonment Of silver; and that Colonel
Goode, lately their nominee for Congress,
and Messrs. Mann Page ana Haskins
Hobson, well-known Populists leaders in
this State. stumped the district for Epes
Il is also claimed that many Of the ne
groes refused 10 vote at all; that many
undertook to prepare their own ballots,
and made such O. botch Of II that they
had to be thrown out; and that a very
considerable number of them voted for
Epes and the straight silver ticket.
Mr.. Thorpe's attorneys are Messrs. j.
i. Brady and Edgar Allan; Mr.. Epes
will be represented by Hon. W. j. Nell
waine and Francis Z. Lassiter. Esq.
