"To the Members of the Society of
Friends in Ohio-My Dear Co Religion
ists / have been delighted to hear that
John r. Mclean has been nominated as
a candidate for the governorship of
Ohio, and 1t gives me great pleasure to
urge you to cast your votes for him. l
believe him to be eminently fitted as a
thoroughly upright and conscientious
man to lead the councils of your state
government in the ways of righteous
ness and prosperity. Many years ago
he and his wife opened their beautiful
house in Washington for me to speak to
their friends. Mrs. Mclean has some of
the best Quaker blood in her veins, and
1 have always been glad to know that
their influence for good was being ex-
erted in the heart of the political world
in Washington. 1 believe in securing
Mr.. Mclean for your governor, you will
secure a man whose influence and guild
ance will be of infinite value to your
state; and will find in his wife one who
will help you in all good things. Yours
in Christian fellowship,

John r. Mclean has a great friend in
Hannah Whitall Smith, the distinguish

that she takes an active interest in the
canvass. 1t WILL no doubt, be circulated

the election machinery throughout the
State. Each precinct board of election
consisted of three registrars of cleo
ton and three judges of election, and 1t
was required that one registrar and one
judge should be appointed from each
of the three political parties, Republican,
Populist and Democrat. In the Sixth
Congressional district the majority OF
each precinct board of election com
sisted of Fllsionists, hostile to contes-
tee, with the exception OF a few pre-
cincts in Mecklenburg county, where
no Populists could be found FOR appoint
ment. SO that the election machinery
was in the hands of the Fusionists, and
no question is made as to the regularity
and correctness of the election returns.
THE evidence shows that Mr.. Dock
ery's political career did not commend
him to- the confidence and support of the
people of the district. In 1896 he was
a candidate before the Republican State
convention for the nomination for Gov
ernor and was defeated by a few votes
by Daniel l.. Russell. He did not yield
to the action of the convention, but
bolted the nomination and became
candidate on the Populist State ticket
for Lieutenant Governor. He canvass
ed the State ON behalf of the Populist
for Governor, the other cam
didates for State officers with the eX-
ception of Governor and Lieutenant
GOVERNOR being the same on both Re
publican and Populist tickets combina
ton or Fusion nominees. ais action in
that campaign did not coffiiii1hd him i'll
1898 to the united support Of the Repub-
licans of his district and he did not re-
ceiye it,"

ground for a re-opening OF the case"
The brief then considers in detail the
evidence in relation to the election in
each county in the district In summing
this up at the end of his brief, Mr.. Bel
lamy says:
"Contestee respectfully submits that
there is no evidence of any violence in
any county, not excepting Richmond.
that in any way did or possibly could
affect the vote cast at the election. III
New Hanover county there is absolutely
no evidence of any violence until some
days after the election, and 10 evil
dence connecting the events Of ,oycm-
Der 10 and II with the election. On
the contrary, it is shown by undisputed
testimony that there was absolute free
dom from anything that savorad Of vl9-
lence or intimidation prior 10 or duuing
the election; that the election was fairy
held, peaceable and undisturbed, and
that the vote cast was full one, within
IS votes of the vote cast in 1895
''In Robson county there is no evil
dence showing that the voters or any
of them were intimldated, or that any
fraud or violence was perpntrated. The
evidence is conclusive THAI the election
was peaceable, free from violence or
intimidation upon the part Of anyone,
and that very full vote was cast, be
ing 5GS in excess of the vote cast in
1896. 1t is to be noted that such wit
nesses as testified to any alleged act or
suggestion of intimidation voted without
trouble or molestation.
There is no evidence in the record
which will even warrant criticism that
the election in the other counties of the
district, Arson, Brunswick, Columbus,
The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1899-09-10

Mecklenburg, Fender and Union, con-
stituting more than three-fifths of the
vote cast, was not altogether free and
fair without irregularity, fraud, vio-
lence or intimidation or other undue or
improper influence"
The fact is that upon the evidence in
this case the authorities are all adj
verse to contestant Dockery. He does
not contend that, even granting that all
the testimony preferred by him concern
ing alleged violence and intimidation be
taken as true, he has shown that
sufficient number of individuals were
excluded from the polls or prevented
from voting by violence or intimidation
to render the election of contestee void
1t is hard, therefore, to see what eX-
cuse even a Republican Congress will
be able to find, with such evidence, for
unseating Mr.. Bellamy.

that the conditions existing in said dis

electors of said district to such an ex-
tent as to render said election a farce,
a mocSery and a fraud. From Oliver
II. Dockery's notice to John ID. Bella
my that he will contest his seat in Con-
gress as member from the Sixth North
Carolina district.
1t will be noted by reference to the
above notice of contest:

ed.
I'd. That no allegation is made that
the sitting member was in any way
connected with or responsible for any
alleged irregularities, fraud, violence
or intimidation"
Sd. That no allegation is made that
the election was not fairly held and
the votes fairly counted and the returns
duly certified.
4th. That the allegations set out in
the notice are lacking in specific and
definite statement
The Congressional election held on
the Sth day of November 1898, in the
Sixth district of North Carolina, re-
suited I'M the following vote:
Tor John ID. Bellamy ......... %, 16S
For Oliver I'll. Dockery ........ 1899
Bellamy's majority .......... $3.50
There were six votes for II. NJ. Nor
nlent, making the aggregate vote 49,
500.
This was the largest vote ever cast
i'll the district, the aggregate vote in
1896, the next highest vote, having
been 1929, and that was a Presidential
year.
This change is accounted for by Mr..
Bellamy's attorneys Messrs. Chas. NJ.
Busbee, of Raleigh, and Frank i. Os-
DVlnt, VI lutlI just
printed, as follows:
The change of majorities in the
counties of the district simply kept pace
with the change in other counties in
the State. 1t resulted from the dissat-
isfaction of the people with the fusion
government which had been imposed
upon them by the election of 1896, and
especially with the imposition of vicious
and corrupt municipal governments in
several Eastern cities and towns. An
examination of the election returns in
1898, and comparison with the vote
in 1896, will show that the change
was not confined to the Sixth district,
but was general throughout the State.
But i'll the Sixth district, however, the
political career of the contestant, and
the hostility to him of many Republi-
cans on account thereof, are additional
explanations of the change
