this manner the purchase of votes may
be continued all day with but one
forged ballot to the precinct and the
purchasers may know to a certainty
that the vote they bought was cast as
they intended to vote it before they
pay for it.
The State committee in calling atten-
ton to the intention of the Republicans
to adopt this method OF purchasing
votes, says: Every precaution should
be taken by election commissioners,
poll clerks and challengers to prevent
the working of this scheme. and at the
very first attempt the perpetrators
should be promptly arrested. Such
conduct is criminal and the law pro-
vides a severe penalty therefor. Any
person found with an official ballot in
his possession on the day of election
outside OF the election room is subject
to arrest and severe punishment"

IN BERKELEY COUNTY.
Two Fine Meetings Held on Tuesday.
Fine Reception to Judge Holt.

MARTINSBURG, w. Va, October 81.
This has been a great day for the De-
mocracy Of Berkeley. TWO large meet
ings were held in the county. At 2
O'Clock a meeting was held at the town
of Hedgesville, seven miles northwest
of Martinsburg, which was addressed
by Hon. John n. Holt the Democratic
candidate for Governor, and ex-Judge
r 6. Tharin. of South Caroline. There
were a large number Of Gold Demo
Gratis at He'd gesville, who voted against
BRYAN in 1896, and they had an effect
i've organization at that point. This
wear there is no such organization in
this county. and it is safe 10 say that
fully 90 per cent of the Gold Demo-
Gratis OF the county are in line working
and doing all in their power for Bryan
and the whole ticket The speeches
AZ Hedgesyille were well received by
the vast crowd and have done great
good.
The Democratic demonstration in
this city tonight was the largest and
most enthusiastic held here in a great
many years. The announcement that
Judge Holt would speak at the opera
house was the talk Of the community

Never Time In the History or the
Country When There Was as Much
Mt stake.
CLARKSBURG, w. Va. October 20.
To the Voters of West Virginia.
There was never a time in the
history of this great country of ours
that demanded your service of pa
triotism more earnestly than the pres
ent time.
We, in a very short time will meet
at the polls to say whether we will
continue this republican form of gov
eminent or whether we will surrender
to a new form of Imperialism. l no
tice very many able and staunch Re-
publicans of the country have COM
pletely severed their connection from
their old party to save their country
from imperialism and desolation. Our
forefathers went through many hard
ships to establish free and independ-
ent government for themselves and
their children, and all generations to
come Shall we, who have enjoyed
this liberty and freedom so dearly
bought more than one hundred years
ago let it go by default. Let every
man who loves his home, his neighbor,
polls on the 9Th day of next month and
there cast his vote in the negative with
the same spirit of duty, patriotism and
love of liberty as the fifty-six who
placed their names to the Declaration
of Independence on the Fourth Day of
July 1776. Do that and you will save
that Declaration from being trampled
in the dust by the plutocracy of this
country and of Great Britain. Presi-
dent Lincoln is reported to have said
less than five days before his death,
speaking of the danger in the future
of the money power or plutocracy of
this country and Great Britain, that
they were a class of people that was
never known to be satisfied They
would manipulate matters in such a
way to forever keep the American peo-
pie paying tribute to them in dollars
and cents. One of their first man.pu-
lations was to have one ERNST, said
to come from England, to work the
characterization scheme. He succeeded
about the 18th of February, 1873, which
caused the greatest panic this or any
other country ever witnessed. The
next manipulation was the protective
tariff, all working in grove to bring
us to a single gold standard. So the
last manipulation is to place us I'M
der Imperialism, fully ruled and con-
trolled by militarism. When you have
given your permission to this class of
people to complete the last manipulate
ing scheme / ask you where is your
liberty and freedom? Where is our
forefathers' Declaration that the above
fifty-six names we're placed on in
1875? The signing of this instrument
was equal to singing their own death
warrant had they been conquered by
Great Britain. In conclusion. | say
go up to the polls on the 9th of No
vember and with all the bravery that
belongs to true American. then and
there cast ballot against imperialism.
(Which Is present Republicanism)
against trustism. and Mark Hannaism
and you will have done your plain
patriotic duty.

encouraging to the Democrats. The
Davis Democratic Club, more than 500
in number, headed by a band of mu-
sic, paraded the principal streets of the
town and then accompanied the speak
ers to the hall, which was packed to
its full capacity. The meeting was
magnificent.
Judge Hollis reception was splendid.
The applause lasted several minutes
before the speaker could proceed. and
his speech, was continuously applaud
ed. After discussing State issues and
Imperialism, he spoke in part of trusts
as follows:
The junior Senator from this State
Mr. Scott. says that trusts are good
things. Let us see how they effect the
farmer and the laborer. They do not
increase the price of corn or wheat or
any of the ordinary farm products that
the farmer has for sale, but they do
increase the price of nails and wire.
sugar and clothing and everything he
buys. In other words, he is made to
pay tribute TO the trusts. And how
is it with the laborer? Take the steel
mills as an illustration. An organiza-
ton is effected which buys UP all the
mills. 1t then first seeks to establish
uniformity in prices of labor and the
product of the various mills combined.
1t does not select the highest wages
paid at any mill as its standard, but
the lowest. and seeks 70 bring the 9th
er scales down TO its level. II the la
borer objects and sends a committee
of union labor to call upon the man
agement ii will not be received or rec
ognized, for while the trust combines
TO rob labor. it will not permit labor
to combine TO protect itself. And then
protesting labor strikers are met with
government by injunction. Mr.. Scott
has peculiar notions of what is good
for the country and its people,"
After Judge Holt concluded his
speech, ex-Judge R. S. Turin, OF Wash
ington, made an able speech of over
an hour.

Special to the Register
CLARKSBURG, w Va. October
31.-The present political campaign In
Harrison county is an enigma. Both
political parties have made quiet,
courageous fight. Up to this time
there has been no demonstration and
little enthusiasm. The Democratic or
ganiZation is equal TO that of any for
mer year. What makes the matter
more prOblematlcal Is that since the
last presidential election the vote in
this county has increased $500 OF
which two-thirds are foreigners. But
a few days ago about four or five hum
dred Italians from the neighborhood
of the Watson mines were natural
lied From Clarksburg to Shinnston
are dotted mines along the NJ. r. X.
r.. and 1t is estimated that the ag-
gregate vote of miners along this
route In this county will be not less
than 500. Both sides therefore are
sanguine and confident. each claiming
the county for the presidential and
State tickets The Democrats with
out these new voters would have had
to overcome majority OF 400. The
fight upon the county ticket has be-
come very warm, and particularly ex-
citing as to Sheriff and prosecuting at
torney and for member of the county
court. To a large extent politics are
eliminated and such issues as the
license question and county fiscal
management are controlling. Unless
the parties are lined mp by election
day there will be found Democrats
voting for Republicans, and Republic
cans voting for Democrats as TO these
three offices. Outside OF this the Stu
alton is as usual, each side eontendlng
for its success from political stand
point What the lack Of enthusiasm
omens no one knows, and that the
election will be close Is certain.

NOTHING BUT FRAUD
On the Part of the Republicans Can
Prevent West Virginia From Elect
ing the Democratic Ticket.

Special to the Register.
PARKERSBURG, w. Va, October 81.
Not content with their colonization
schemes, the use of repeaters and 9TH
er methods already under way to cor
rupt and debauch the ballot next Tues
day, the Republican managers have hit
upon another plan which they will at
tempt to work
The information has been given to
the State committee that this plan is
to be carried out whenever 1t is prac-
ticable. 1t is practical method BY
which they may buy the votes and be
sure before they are paid that they
have actually delivered the goods
They expect by hook or by crook TO
secure few OF the official ballots
printed for each district in certain
counties and either to buy the sigma
lures OF the poll clerks or to have them
cleverly initiated, and to keep one or
more ballots so signed at each pre-
cinct for use. When man whose vose
has been bought appears at the polls
he will be given this ballot with all
the tickets erased except the Repub1l-
can ticket With the ballot folded MP
and in his pocket. he will go into the
polling place and ask for a ballot. On
taking it into the booth he will fold
up the genuine ballot and put it IN
marked into his pocket He will take
the bogus ballot out OF his pocket and
hand it TO the election commissioner.
who will put it into the ballot box.
The voter will then deliver TO the per-
son who has been purchasing his vote
the unmarked ballot TO show that the
one he voted was the one which had
been prepared for him. and VIII then
receive his reward The unmarked
ballot which he brought back with him
i prepared Tor the next one. and II

1t is alleged in Boston that the ar
rest of Note Teller Alvord was a fake.
that the bank officials were in COM
munication with him for a week be-
fore he was taken into custody, and
that the embezzler was simply hiding
from the public and not from the po-
lice. 1t is further alleged that when
the officers called it was by appoint
ment, that Alvord was expecting
them, and went to the door himself to
admit them. All of which looks a
little bit strange, it being presumed to
be true.

seven figure column, and ten years
hence, If the growth OF the past few
years is kept up, we will number
100000 souls. That is pretty certain,
but is yet in the future. The present
figures are striking. In West Vir-
ginia, when the State was admitted to
the Union, the population was about
$4,000. In 1870 it was 442,014, in
1880, 61S,457; and in 1890, 1862, TAO.
The jump to 95S,9OO thus almost dou-
bles the population of 1870, and the
increase since 1880 is equal to the en-
tire population of the State when it
was formed. This shows the big ad-
vance which has been made
By the report made, one State
New York-has population of over
seven millions (7,26S, O09); one
Pennsylvania-has over six millions
(6,301, 1863, two others have over
three millions missouri and Texas),
and eight others over two millions
each, while the list of States which
number between one and two million
inhabitants is no less than thirteen.
There are thus twenty-seven States
with a population in excess of one
million.
Detailed bulletins for the various
States, showing the population by
counties. districts and towns. will be
issued shortly.
