LOOK OUT FOR FRAUD.

The Republicans are determined to
capture the electoral vote of West lir-
ginia and eject a majority Of the Legs
lature by fraudulent means if fairness
fails. They are determined 70 succeed,
by any method, no matter how question
able, and at any cost, no odds how
large. The thing to do is to make their
efforts futile and of no avail. Money
is being poured into the State through
secret channels, in large sums, and in
almost every country town, n GER
tainly in every magisterial district in
a large majority of the counties strang-
ers have made their appearance, COM
ing from no n knows where, having
no visible means of support, and yet
we'll supplied with spending money.
They aggregate thousands, white and
black, and other thousands will doubt
less make their appearance before cleo
ton day, and on that day they will to
a man demand the right to vote.
TURN THEM DOWN! 1t should be the
especial business of every Democrat, as
we'll as OF every other citizen who be-
lieves in a fair ballot and an honest

zens, and to spot those who are de-
termined to cast a fraudulent vote

doing so. Now is the time to take pre-
cautions. Election day will be the time
to act in protection of the purity OF
the ballot box. Let every citizen be on

THE DiNNER PAIL.

An officer of Typographical Union No,
6 ("Big Six"), of New York, has these
interesting remarks to make to work
ingmen:
IF Senator Hanna, Governor Roose-
welt and the rest of the Republican
leaders imagine that the w~orkingmen
of this country will accept without
question their statements regarding the
full dinner pail they will soon discover
their error. The workingmen, and par
~ticularly thase who are affiliated with
trade unions, reserve the right to lift
the cover of the full dinner pail and
examine the contents for themselves.
They are curious to know whether it
is full of smoke, Sawdust or gas. If it
contains anything more nourishing 1t
will be found that the flour trust, the
meat trust, the sugar trust, the salt
trust or ONE of their associates, are
represented.
THE contents of the full dinner
pail which forms a part of the outfit
of the Rough Rider in his stampede
through the West, are well known to
the members of trade unions in New
York State. Governor Roosevelt has
never been accused of friendliness to-
ward labor organizations. His hos
tility to various labor measures, his ac-
ton in calling out the militia at an ex-
pense of something like $4,000 to set
tie an insignificant strike in West
chester county, and particularly his
selection Of the foremost energy of trade
unions as one of the Official
of the Republican party, have demon
strated his position beyond question.
by designating this n%on-union news
paper as one in which certain lucra-
tive State advertisements were to ap-
pear, he indirectly used the State funds
TO assist the New York Sun in its war
fare on Typographical Union No. 6, and
organized labor in general. The mem
bers of trade unions will remember this
and govern themselves accordingly on
election day.
'On July p, 1890, this Official Repub-
lican newspaper published an editorial
entitled, The Root of the Strike Trou-
bles,' concluding as follows:
THE root OF the strike trouble, there
fore, is not in the alleged ~greediness of
employees, but in the irrepressible ten
dency of the human race TO multiply
beyond the means Of subsistence. =
y $ 1t is a struggle for existence like
that of shipwrecked sailors on a raft
in the ocean with a scant supply of
food and drink, and the weaker have 10
succumb.'
This blasphemous statement ap-
peared on the very day on which the
manager of that newspaper entered
into an agreement with one Charles
William Edwards, the object of which
was to import non-union men to take
the places of the faithful employees of
the Sun, who left that Office eleven DAYS
later on learning that the non-union
men were already On their way to New
! York. The details of this infamous
conspiracy against the homes and hap
piness of the old employees are matters
of record in the office of the clerk of
the United States Circuit Court for the
southern district of New York, in a suit
for damages brought by Edwards
against the Sun.

lowing under the Evils Of Dense Pop
