SMALL SATISFACTION.

Considerable debate has often been heard
relative to the suffering of victims of fires. 1t
has been generally understood that they under
go extreme physical anguish However, that is
dead wrong and relatives and loved ones left
behind by fearful hoOcausts may now enjoy the
small satisfaction of knowing that the dead suf-
fer none from the flames. The opinion ex-
pressed by the New York Medical journal is as
follows:
Unnecessary anguish of mind has
probably been felt by relatives of the
unfortunate workers who were killed i'll

count gave him a plurality of twenty
two votes. The changes occurred ir
five precincts as follows:

gave harrington 149, Froshaug 8
and McElligott Al. The recount gave
harrington $50, Froshaug 6 and Nc
Elligott Al, net gain of four for
harrington.
CLINTON-The original count gave

gott 10, a net gain of IL for Earring
ton.

He did not sign either report for that
reason.
wish that every man, woman and
child in the state could know how
thoroly this committee investigated
and how conscientious were their
conclusions. I wish that every citi-
zen might read and analyse the full
majority report. Their findings and
an adequate discussion Of the case
would justify book, rather than one
or two columns in newspaper. I saw
this because consider suffrage a
sacred thing.
This committee found what it con-
sidered conclusive proof that the Edi-
son ballot box had been opened and in
it's report submitted facts which ap-
peared plainly to prove that the re-
turns in each OF the other four pre-
cincts in question had been tempered
with. Froshaug, in the five precincts,
lost 80 votes because on that many
ballots the recount showed a cross
marked for him and also for one other
candidate for senator. The majority
report stated:
"An examination Of each double
crossed ballot convinces your commit
tee that with the exception of one,
there was cross placed thereon for
senator by some person other than
the voter who voted the ballot. 1t is
somewhat significant that the judges
testified that there was one ballot
double crossed for senator on the ORR
ginal count, and your committees ex
of all the crossed ballots
confirms that statement.

Deliberately. designedly. defiantly
did the friends of Harrington tampel
with ballot boxes and reverse the yer
dict of the voters in the senatorial
election in the 56th legislative dis
trict. This is my opinion. But nj
statement of mine could in candor o.
conclusiveness approach the emphatic
charges of fraud made by members Of
the Senate in discussing this confess
last Friday.
First consider how the Senate votec

significant phases of the case:

sion of the majority report. After
recital in detail of the history and
conditions of the ballots and boxes
in the five precincts. the committee
reported:
"Out of the remaining thirty seven
precincts in this district recounted by
the inspectors, no irregularities such
as stated above were found to exist
at all, and this fact is conceded by
both parties to this contest. that one
of these conditions might exist alone
and yet admit of explanation may be
conceded; but that all of these condi-
tions should exist together and con-
cur cannot be explained reconcoriled.
The chain of circumstances proven by
the existence and concurrence Of these
unusual, abnormal conditions consti-
tutes almost absolute proof that these
ballots and ballot boxes have not only
not been properly kept. but in fact
have been tempered with; and such
testimony and chain of circumstances
prohibit finding which could affect
the correctness of the original re-
turns.
I have already given the final vote
which followed five hours of acrimon-
ious controversy over the case. The
result gave DR.. Froshaug his seat in
the senate by the narrow margin
of one vote. But that does not in
itself suggest the danger he was in.
There were four distinct stages in
the fight for harrington. First the
early indications were that the figures
of the recount would stand.
Next the elections committee pro-
bed deeper into the case and discover
ed additional and seemingly conclusive
evidence that ballot boxes had been
entered and votes changed. which
turned the tide in Froshaug's favor.
This condition continued up to the
day before the contest was decided
and it was the general opinion that
Harrington would not receive more
than twenty votes.

that nocturnal hunt for votes. But
the influences used were quite success
full. They cracked the party whip
over the democrats. Farrington's
personal popularity was employed to
bring a few of his old legislative
friends into line. Most potent how
ever. was the brewery organization,
which brought into "the combina-
tom number of the "old guard. !"
AS a result, Farrington's friends.
jaded but happy. entered the contest
claiming "a votes.
The final stage was the closing hour
of the debate in which the four swung
back to Froshaug and gave him the
victory. That debate was dramatic
and of epochical Importance to the
state. Senators Putnam. Gunderson,
Sagend. Haycraft and Boyle bore the
brlnt of the battle for the integrity of
the ballot, and the later closed the
debate with a challenge to every
friend of Harrington to inspect the
changed ballots which were in the
building, before voting to unseat the
man who was obviously being cheated
out of his position.
l cannot believe that Mr.. Earring
ton was a party to the ballot box
tampering. which was repeatedly char
acterized as ga wholesale crime"
The brewery element of his district
and the state resented the presence
of prohibitionist in the seat so long
held by one of their ablest and most
faithful followers. That was Far
rington's misfortune-to have the
backing of an influence so unscrupul-
GUS in politics.
AS I predicted, the house temper
ance committee has begun to do bust
ness for the brewers. One of their
recent acts was to indefinitely post
pone' the J. N. johnson bill extend

class. "A minority report however,
