Remarks About Richmond.

Newport News Pregs: II there has been
the slightest doubt regarding Richmond's
position In regard to the jamestown lie !
Centennial Exposition. It should he set
atsrcst by the resolutions adopted by the
Richmond Chamber OF Commerce.
a The people Of Richmond endorsed the
project when It first was proposed. and
made vigorous cffortto have the Capital
City selected as the site for the exposi-s
ton. Failing In this. the business men
"a; Richmond promised to do everything
In their power to assist the enterprise
realizing that 1t was a State and ma
tlonal undertaking and that It would re-
dcund to the honor, glory and bencrt
OF the Old Dominion. *
Everybody knew that this promise
would be redeemed. Therefore. this ac-5
ton Of ono of Richmond's most #ls'iluesi'T
tial ORGANIZATIONS Is no surprise.

WHAT NEGLEcTDOES.

writer in the Philadelphia Ledger
III makes some startling disclosures IN re-
AZ gard to fraudulent transactions IN the
%1ata election Hc declares that 4o,eoo
illegal votes were cast by what he calls
d tba nol,tical gang He further de-
clares that there was compact between
the Republicans and Democrats by which
"A q Democrat in one of the Republican dis
tr,cts was elected.
@ In order to show how these frauds We're
committed we reproduce tho following
contract from his letter.
ti TO nv kn owledge Of the methods OF the,
machine on election days there were over
III 500 ilegtimate votes cast in the Twen-
ltty-sixth Ward alone 500 OF those votes
Were stuffed in the ballot boxes OF two
divisions of said ward.
The way this is done Is very easy
when the minority election officers q
II the board are fixed and with the gang in
II the game.
Here Is the way 1t IS done A list Of
( the stay-at-hom voters in n division Is
registered on the tally sheets of the
clerks OF both inspectors Of the election
5. board; then the judge of election gives
the Suffers of .the ballot box sufficient
amount Of ballots to be marked up and
placed Illegally in the box.
There are several very interesting and
afimportant lessons to be learned from
this incident, but that to which we call
special attention is the fact that If these
4 900 stay-at-homes had gone TO the
polls and voted there had been no OPP
4 portunity for these frauds. but as they
we're not in their places on election day
70 prfar N
the interest OF the machine. That is thu
= great danger in our form OF government
the danger Of indifference. When th'
nspeople are thoroughly alive to their pc
iitical interests and take an active par
IL in elections and in the conduct of thu
public affairs, there is little chance 70
tricky politicians TO get In their work.
But when the people do not take al
interest in their affairs and do not at
tend political meetings and nominatih
conventions and especially when they d
not go to the polls ON election day, tn
rlngsters have their own way and the
ARE quite sure to make the most of the
advantage and to turn It TO their ow
account,
These voters In Philadelphia who sta.
cd at home on election day furnished
the ringsters the opportunity which Tho
so much desired and gave the rlngste
the opportunity 10 vote them as so maj
dumb cattle.
The rngsters ought to be punished f
iheir misdoings, but what right have Il
stay-at- homes 10 complain? It was the
m
polls and cast vote, their own far
that this opportunity was given Il
ringsters, The citizen who pnrsues SUI
course must put a very low cstima
on his right OF franchise.

THE FORGED BONDS.
