NEGRO VOTES TO
SWELL THE POLLS
STAUNTON BOOSTED ITS REGIS
TRATTON BOOKS BY OUT
SIDE REGISTRATIONS.

Especial to The Richmond Eirginan.)
STANTON, VA, Oct. 1.-THE
Friends of the liquor interests have
sought assiduously to make the inn
preston abroad that the people of
stanton grew tired of the dry re-
gimc, and that there was a gr sit
change of sentiment from two years
ago, when the drys won the local OPP
ton election here by the majority ~
20 votes In total vote of LESS, not
counting defective ballots.
Such an impr ession is an erroneous
one the drys in Staunton did not
lose votes in the last election, held
on August l. as compared with two
years ago: on the contrary. they
gained 70 votes, the dry vote this
year being 6s3. against 654 two yeats
ago. The vets increased their vote
materially this year, polling 7s6 votes
this year, against ga two years ago,
gain OF 152 votes in the two years.
The vets did not. therefore. win
the election by gaining dry votes. but
by working up new material. going To
all parts of the country and finding
men who had not for years been iden-
titled with the community, and ring
tilted with the community, and bring
ing them here to vote; men nominal
were on the books, but whose poll
taxes had not for years been paid. but
were somehow paid this year. These
men turned up to vote.
The many travelling men who work
this territory were induced. some of
them by hotel and other influences.
to claim this as their home and reg
lister and vote. Negro hotel walters
and other shifting laborers were sim
! ilarly gotten on the books. and a large
number of irresponsible persons who
had not recently voted were found to
have paid three years poll taxes.

that much money At one time and

| or the 243 negroes on the books.
/ It Ia known that only about forty,
and these among the better element,
and taxpayers voted dry. The woods
were secured for votes and the vets
won. It IL capable OF mathematical
/ demonstration that II the election had
been confined to the white people who
spend their entire time in Stauntcn

seen above. furnished nearly double
the majority needed by the vets,
