W. A. Fishers safe Blown.

When VIM. A. Fisher, coal dealer, with
yard and office on Salem Avenue, entered
his Office on Wednesday, it looked as
though it had been struck by lightning.
The floor was strewn with books and papers
the contents Of his safe, chairs and furn-
iture upset, and the safe door lay in the
centre Of the room. 1t took but a minute
to see what had occurred, burglars had been
there and blown the safe.
Fortunately the only money in the safe
was about dollar in pennies; many valu-
able papers were found while others are
missing
The burglars got in through window,
and the way in which the safe was blown,
shows they were experts. The crevice
around the safe door had been closed with
soap.
Some Of the neighbors heard an explosion
at 2 O'Clock, but thought it was at dis
tance.
There is no clue to the thieves.

THE MANTUA RECOUNT.

Mr.. EDITOR Chairman Pierson, OF the
County Board OF Elections, has gone to
considerable disintepested trouble to pre-
pare statement Of the recent recount Of
the ballots cast ia Mantua township at the
recent election, bat it seems to me he has
overlooked very important condition Of
those ballots.
As everybody knows, everything about
elections, and primaries, nowadays is
s.official'' and things political must toe the
scratch or be thrown out, except what is
necessary to elect Republican candidates
Now, our contention is that 35 of the
ballots cast ia that election ssere not Off
eiai and did rot comply with the plain
mandate of the statute, and we belisye we
can proye 1T. of these ballots 80 bors the
name of Elmer e. Sharp for Freehol0er
and 8 that OF Henry G Bender.
Section 384 OF the election laws, 1906,
reads:- The party ballot or party column
Of any voting machine shall coEtain the
schedule of appropriations as determined
by the voters at such primary election"
Now, both the party caucuses in Mantua
township. agreed on their appropriations,
and these appropriations were voted for and
made part of the township ticket by the
voters in the primary election, hence be-
came part of the official ticket OF the
township of Mantua. No ticket could
be complete or official that did not
contain those appropriations, and according
to Mr.. Persons 8 own statement 35 ballots
that were counted by Judge Garrison 80
for Sharp and for Bendlerwer not only
incomplete ballots, but they were not Off
eial ballots
Again, not one of these ballots was given
t, a voter by any officer OF the Township
Election Board That Board gave out only
the official ballot, as prepared by the
various parties at the Primary election -the
complete ballot.
The few ballots that were matters Q
dispute in this election because of defects
in spelling, errors in placing stickers, use
of indellible pencil, and misconcepsion Of
extent to which ballots of another party be
combined, would have cut no ice in this
election contest if the plain mandate of the
law as to what should constitute an official
ballot had been applied.
We might take up that end of the argu-
ment, however, and recite how Sharp was
given the benefit of ballot whereon the
voter wrote the name Of Daniel V. Sum
merrill for Congress with a purple pencil,
how a Sharp stioker that covered only a
portion of Bendler's name was counted for
Sharp, and Bender ssicker oyer the word
Freeholder were cast out, but what's the
use when bigger game goes through little
net.
The satisfaction we have in this result is
that Of the Official ballots cast Mr. Bender
had good majority and II the voters in
tention was yet good law, and official and
incomplete ballots all counted, he yet had
clear majority Of the votes cast by Man
tua township large enough TO overcome
Mr.. Sharp's majority in Pitman.
