ITEMS FROM
NEW CASTLE.
Correspondence Of the Republican.
November s, 1893,

It Is Republican day. It Is as clear as
crystal and the Democratic predictions
will bo like the clerk of the weather. The
last cannon has been fired and when tho
moke clears away then and not until then
will New Castle hundred know how nec
men voted. There may be some funny in
cidents In the course Of the day here. Tho
election booth at one voting pluce was
placed close enough to q stairway for
person standing above to soc how tho voter
vO,ed.
He had only to give the signal to the
money man outside and he would pny the
contemplate pieca Of humanity. Tho
Republicans saw the arrangement and
determined that If the Democrats bought
the voters tho party spolter would not See
them vOts. In another district the booth
was allowed to remain about six inches
from tho wall. The arrangene Mt was to
have a 'true blood" and Spurchasablo'
to enter the booth together.
Tho true blood could vote his ticket FIRST
and then exchange 1t with the other man.
The booth was far enough away from the
wall to allow the ticket and money to be
passed to the purchasable. But tie He-
publicans had their eyes open and there
will be no vote buying In this bOoth to-day
The Democrats arc desperate and II mo:
ney wins they are sure to win but the old
down to less than hundred.
Some time during the pasi summer two
men had row. One of them was Jer-
Wis Archie and he has been ut work in thi
hundred ever since. Yesterday one of our
leading Dslr ocrats determined that Archie
should be arrested. The county consta BILE
was called and Archie was placed In Jail.
But imagine the chagrin of these high
leaders. Archie was not registered and no
vote is lost. Now then Mr.. Democrat what
do you think of your little ruse that failed.
Posters are up today announcing the lee
ture by Byron W. King to be delivered
here on Friday evening. November 1S
Byron w. King Is too we'll known 10 the

Ceeds Of the lecture will be for the benefit
