The negroes were given names at the
gate. They then repaired to the
polling place, and in many instances
forgot their names, and TO remedy
this defect in the system they were
given slips of paper with their names
appearing upon them. 1t appears
that Dr.'G r. Buskirk, q Democratic
election commissioner, made an eff
fort to prevent some Of these negroes
from voting. ThereLpon the plan
was changed, and Postmaster Hat
field would stand at the gate and he
was occasionally relieved by a man
by the name Of Harmon. AS the me-
groes would approach the door OF the
polling place they would shout out

in each instance, they were permitted

CONGRESS SAYS INTENT

This man by the name OF Har-
mon" referred to in the report Of
the House elections committee as
having assisted in these fragrant
frauds, is at the present time one
of the Republican nominees for mem.
Der of the legislature from Nc
Dowell county and was on the ticket
for which DR. Hatfield was working
on the day of the primary election
when Hatfield was nominated for
Governor and Harmon was nomin.
ated for the House Of Delegates.
As TO DR.. Hatfields part in the
elections of two years ago in Nc
Dowell county, the same committee
of the House of Representatives. re-
ported to Congress in the same case
as follows:
The testimony shows that the
president of the county court, one DR..
Fl. d Hatfield, who rs also president
OF the Senate of West Virginia, re-
fused to appoint challensers for the
Democratic party at the various yot.
ing precincts Of Mcdowell county. al
thought the law of West Virginia
seems clear that the county chair
men of the two leading political par
tex shall dominates and the county
court shall appoint challengers Of
election. The testimony shows ths<
this same DR. Hatfield was very
active in the actual conduct OF the
election in Mcdowell county. and
the refusal TO appoint Democratic
ehallengers raises a strong presump-
ton that the conduct OF the election
was to be neither fair nor honest
THE circumstances are all strong
as showing a deliberate intention to
commit fraud In the interest Of the
contesee."
