GOT
DEMOCRATS COIN
Cunning Attempt to Violate
Anti-Bribery Law Brought
to Light
THREE DISTRICTS
YET TO REPORT

While the total registration IN VIII
mington up to and including Saturday
last, showed decrease Of about 5000
compared with the registration OF two
years ago, there was an increase Of
several hundred In the last days ng-
ures this year over those OF two years
ago. The total decrease Is estimated
to be about equally divided between
the two parties.
Big Republican Majority.
The Republican leaders are jubiiant
as result OF the registration. The
Democrats always make an extra ef-
fort on the last day to get their voters
out but the Republicans we're equally
as jealous. with the result that tho
two parties split even. which gives the
Republican party, counting the total
registration, a majority in this city Of
between 1900 and 1000 votes.
Boomerang for Democrats.
The cry OF bribery that went up, from
the Democrats concerning money being
sent through the mails by Republicans
for registration purposes has proved a
boomerang to the Democrats Il has
been learned that this money was
Democratic cash and that much OF IL
reached the hands OF the Republicans
through the stupidity Of the Democrats
In misjudging the politics OF the men
to whom the cash was sent
Republicans Naturally Were lnoensed.
The Evening Journal announced last
week that the Democratic party would
issue money for registration purposes
and In order that the work could be
done without detection the money was
sent through the mails.
