FRAUD THERE, SURE.

HtOD iuIHAg OOILt
The more one investigates the more
certain becomes the assurance that the
vote recently cast in the Democratic
primary in the city of Norfolk is largely
fraudulent.
Just after the primary there was
much talk about the vote cast in Nor
folk being larger than had been cast in
the presidential election in 1908. We
find that the combined vote given Mann
and Tucker in Norfolk at the primary
was 4,191, while in the presidential cleo
ton last year the combined vote of Bry-
an and Taft was only 1862. So, the
Democratic vote in Norfolk in 1909 was
929 more than the combined Democratic
and Republican vote in 1908, Mr.. Taft
got 991 votes and Bryan 2,21. This
makes the Democratic vote in Norfolk
1927 more in 1909 than it was in 1908.
Are not these figures a little suspi-
cious, considering that there was gen.
eral cry of Democratic apathy previous
to the primary Where did these near
ly two thousand Democrats, who did not
vote in 1908 but who either voted or
were counted as voting in 1909, come
from? But it may be claimed that the
small Democratic vote in Norfolk last
year was occasioned by the unpopular
ity of Mr.. Bryan. Let US see about
that.
The first State primary in Virginia
was held four years ago. A very heat
ed campaign between the popular lead
ers of the two Democratic factions pre-
coded the primary, and every Demo
crat was urged to vote in the contest.
Well what was done in Norfolk then?
Martin received 2,Ol6 votes and Monta-
que got 865, a total of 1881, or l, 314
fewer votes than the combined vote of
Mann and Tucker in 1909.
These facts and figures are very sig
nifcant, but within the past few days
something more significant of fraud has
come to light. The Anti-Saloon League
has determined to have a local option
election in the city of Norfolk. The
first gun in that election was fired on
the 18th instant, when notices were
posted by the Anti-Saloon organization
in Norfolk for the purging of the poll
books of the First and Second wards in
that city. This list claims that of the
1000 or $500 votes on the registration
books in these two wards that / 800 or
more are illegal; and the Anti-Saloon
people confidently expect to take not
less than 1, 800 names from the regis
tration books within four days, the time
they have by law to do the work 1t is
claimed that some of these fifteen hun
dred persons are dead and some have
moved away. 1t is strange that the
Anti-Saloon people who were the strong
supporters of Judge Mann did not make
the discovery before the recent pri-
mary. Claiming to be great morslists
and eager to regulate the morals of
others, it was the duty of the Anti-Sa-
loon men to purge the registration lists
before the primary.
Of course very small proportion of

ANOTHER BILL OF PARTICULARS.

ANUlHtR BILL UF PARTICULARS.
The Richmond News Leader and the
Lynchburg News were very insistent a
few weeks ago that the Virginia Re-
publicans should file bill of particulars
in support of the charge that Demo
cratic administrations had been very ex-
travsgant and wasteful with the public
funds. The News Leader defied us to
show where a single dollar had been
wasted by the Democratic administra-
tons. We have already published two
bills, but our Richmond contemporary
has not attempted to controvert the
items we mentioned in those, therefore,
we will take them for confessed.
In compliance with our promise last
week we will file another bill of particu-
lars this week, and will continue to file
other bills until the election in Novem-
Der. Some of the items may be con-
sidered small, but a number of small
things put together will aggregate
large amount.
We mention as an item in this bill the
five school examiners. They are purely
fifth wheel in the department of edu-
cation, and the places were made for
hungry members of the tribe. There
are five of these examiners who are ex-
pected to perform the duties that should
be performed by county and division
superintendent. Good school men de-
clare they are unnecessary but expen-
sive appendages to the school system
Their salaries were originally 81, 500
each, per year. but they have been ad.
vanced to $1,000, each, per year, with
unlimited travelling and incidental ex.
penses. Last year, 1908, the five ex.
aminers received $4,000 for salaries
and spent So, 900 or more for travelling
expenses. The same amounts will be
paid them and expended by them il
1909. Thus we find $50, 900 of the pub.
lie funds thrown away in two years t.
supply places for five members of the
tribe. This amount would have built
thirty very good school houses in the
country.
Another item which we find in the
Act appropriating the public revenue
for the years 1908 and 1909 is as follows
Salaries of such other assistants anC
expenses necessary for publishing the
Journal of the House of Burgesses ant
for travelling libraries the sum of 81,
thousand dollars"
This appropriation is listed under tn,
appropriations to the State Library, anC
the appropriation is made for each o.
the two years, 1908, 1909. We under
stand that the principal part of thes,
appropriations went to the Clerk of the
House of Delegates and his assistants
for work done in the publication of the
Journal of the House of Burgesses
This was pretty good sum, $12, 900, t.
turn over to members of the "office
holders trust" and was an useless
waste of the public funds. 1t looks
like job.
The next and the last item of extrav
agance and waste we shall mention il
this bill of particulars will be the ap
preparations made by Democratic Leg
islatures to the jamestown Exposition
We find in the Acts Of the General AS
sembly of 1904, that a bill was passed
which appropriated two hundred thous
and dollars to the jamestown EXPOSE
ton. Recent exposures show that there
was right smart jobbery connected with
