the Democratic candidate, and the testimony
shows that hundreds Of such votes which were
not cast at all were actually counted for him
by the obliging and complacent election officers
who were his partsans and had been appointed
in violation of the plain and we'll understood
requirements of the State Election law. In
order to carry out the fraud without friction
and lessen the danger of detection, in cases
where Republicans had been allowed to serve
as election officers. they We're turned out of the
polling places before the votes counted.
TRICKERY CLEARLY SHOWN.
At Cahaba precinct, Dallas County, in which
there were only ten white voters, 127 votes were
returned for Robbins and "a for Aldrich. The
Republican clerk and marker were expelled
from the polling place while the votes were be-
ing counted. The appointment of the inspector
recommended by the Republican managers was
refused, and colored man, a cripple who had
to be carried into the polling place and was
physically unable to perform his duties even II
he mentally capable, appointed. This
was Of the precincts where the Republicans
did not keep away from the polls, and the Eec-
tions Committee observes:
We are unable to comprehend the reason
which caused the inspectors to give Aldrlch SO
large a vote. Under the circumstances Ihey
might just as we'll have given Robbins all the
votes cast. The evidence of fraud is oVerWhelm-
ing and unquestioned. The returns should pe
disregarded.
Cahaba precinct is pretty fair sample OF all
the other disputed precincts. AS to the Selma
precinct which includes the entire city of Selma
containing a population of more than ten thou
sand the Democratic minority of the commit
tee, among other things, says:
We insist that the credible and trustworthy
evidence does not show that much larger vote
was cast for Aldrich than was returned for
him. While it is true that some OF the voters
on the poll list who testified that they voted Tor
Robbins are not TO be found on the registration
list there are not many as eighty.
Therefore the minority concludes that the cleo
ton in this precinct fairly and honestly
held and the returns honestly and correctly
made
Further comment on the conclusions OF the
minority would seem to be superfuous.

NOTES OF THE LINKS.

Women will play an important part In the dongs
on local links this week. To-day there is TO be a
women's foursome at Harbor Hin and a team
match between the Dyker Meadow and Shinnecock
teams at Dyker Meadow. The feminine contingent
of the Van Cortlandt Park Golf Club will begin its
championship tomorrow. while Thursday a
number of matches are scheduled among the teams
comprising the Womens Metropolitan Golf Asso-
ciatton
No official statement to the standing OF these
has yet been made, though 1t is evident that
some announcement would do much to stimulate
the interest OF the less successful competitors.
The matches nave been in progress since last June,
yet there have been many defaults and post
ponements that II VIII take official adjudication
straighten the tangle. The Morris County
team is evidently entitled to first place, for its
record has been victories and defeats.
The Wee Burn team had similar record until it
beaten by the Nassau team a week ago, al
though one match of its series was won by default
The Englewood and Powelton teams should also
stand well on the list.
