The seat: Congress Of Hon,
George S. Legare is again being
contested by \. P. Prioleau, the
negro aspirant, recently dis
charged from jail after serving
a sentence of the United States
court, convicted of tampering
with the mails. Clerk of Court
Barron has been informed that
one G. P. Ragin of St. Paul, this
county, has testified that no box
had been open at the St, Paul
precinct on election day, and
that there are 500 Republican
voters in that precinct, and there
are between 5000 and 5000 Re
publican voters in the county.
Ragin's testimony is confirmed
by Sancho Benbow, Mcdonald
Ragin, and July Watson. There
is no record to ascertain how
many negro voters there are in
the St. Paul precinct, and for
that matter, the same condition
exists with regard to the number
of negro voters in the county,
but it is our judgment that
Ragin, the affidavit maker, has
sworn fast and furiously. If
there was no box opened at st.
Paul in the last election it was
because the managers failed to
serve. and had they served not
over fifty votes could have been
cast, and out of that number not
over two negroes would have
applied to vote.
The people Of the st. Paul
section should see these affidavit
makers and persuade them that
it is wrong to attempt to create
mischief, especially by making
such extravaganza and malicious
statements merely for the sake
Of giving a convict an oppor-
tunity Of making some money
out OF the government.
