Republican Officials Indicted for
Fraud

HOPKINSVILLE, KY, Oct. ll.-Thir-
teen indictments have been returned
by the Christian county grand jury
against prominent Republicans, includ-
ing several county officials, for violation
of election laws. Commonwealth At
torney Howell who has been active in
uncovering these oifenses, says the full
extent Of the corruption has not yet
been disclosed and that if the present
grand jury had had sufficient time to
have handled the mass of evidence
brought before it, indictments might
have been returned against Republicans,
both white and black, for fraudulent
registration false swearing and gross
irregularities. He says the public will
be astounded at the disclosures at trials
Of persons already indicted.
The list of indictments follows:
John p. Prowse, County Clerk, max
ing false registration book, two cases
Same, obstructing and interfering with
the election at the court house precinct
last year
Polk Cansler, County Judge, obstruct-
ing and interfering with election in the
same precinct.
Ebert Wiley Republican challenger
and John W. Wicks, election clerk in
dictment same rs above.
V. VI. Williamson, election judge: un-
lawfully opening ballot.beX and obtain
ing ballot during election.
John Wicks and Ebert Wiley; aid
ing and abetting Williamson in above
otfcnse.
SimonWilcox. colored: false swearing
to register.
Charles Shelby, colored; registering
in precinct other than his own.
The Democratic committee is deter
mined to put a stop to election rascal
titles and purify local politics rs far as
possible. With this end in view, dupli-
Gates of the registration books for the
November election are being carefully
examined and it has been found that
frauds have been perpetrated even at
this early time The names Of four
former convicts are registered as Re
pubhcans among the frauds discovered
y list of over 100 unparduned eX-con-
victs, who are living in various parts Of
Christian county, was received to-day
from the prison authorities and will
he compared with names on poll
books.
1t is probable that the next grand
jury will return more indictments for
election frauds than the late one, for
the committee is said to have mass
Of damaging evidence to lay before that
body in February.
