ADDICKS MEN
RUSH FOR CASH
(Continud From First Pagel

Several thousand pin buttons with a
picture of Dr. Ball on them have been
distributed through the two lower
counties and many were seen wearing
the buttons in thls city today.
Willard salisbury State chairman
of the Democratic organization, has
thrown the Democrats who propose to
sell their votes into a panic II il is
carried cut it will result in the ex-
iposuIe. of every Democrat who sells his
vote. Tho cause of the attacks OF heart
failure the Democratic 'foaters are
having is contained in the following let
ter which is being sent out today:
viii Defeat Foaters
To the Good Citizens Of Delaware
and to Democratic Voters Assist
ants in particular:
Orders have been issued by the
Addicks Republicans that all their
voters shall ask for the voters as
sistants. The object of this is TO
prevent a voter who has been
bought from being easily known,
and at the same time the Union
Republicans Will have exact knowl-
> edge that each purchased voter
has delivered the goods"
There is no penalty in the law to
prevent the voters assistant from
. disclosing how each man has
! voted The law was probably drawn
in that way for the express purpose
OF enabling the voters assistant,
without danger To- himself TO in
form the purchaser how this man
had voted
There is a sure method to defeat
Il the whole nefariOus scheme. The
y Democratic voters assistant must
be present and see hcw each man
votes who asks for assistance. The
= Republican voters assistant cannot
act unless the Democyat Is pres.
y ent
= There is absolutely no penalty
Z, in the law IL the voters assistant
y shall proclaim i'm loud voice how
- each man marks his ballot, or has
~ it marked. Publicity and public
" opinion is the remedy for this
y abominable plot. Whenever a man
~ who has pretended to be
oe an honest or an incorwuDtible
Democratic voter votes the Addicks
~ ticket let the Democratic voters
" assistant announce in a loud voice
a1 how he has voted. The man will
=, be disgraced and ostracised by his
lh friends and neighbors. This will stol
/ the corrupt scheme at once.
- willard Salisbury,
Chairman of Democratic State
le Committee.
The point was raised that this was
legal. but it is not. The old law ma
ing It an offensa for the voters assif
ants to tell how a man voted was o
pealed before the passage Of the pre-
20 20 ent law.
