HOW IT WAS DONE,
; ■At the request of the secretary of the.
Tenth ward democratic executive com
mittee, I took charge of the window
book atjjjo poll of the sixth division,
at Li bra tint and Race streets. Preached
there at 9:50 a. M., and found the polls
in possession of the republican “ ring’’
of that division,, headed by John Bol
lock. X was informed that previous, to
jny arrival tho window book • had been
snatched, away .from 'two voters, who
had it in charge at different, times, and
who were not allowed to serve. I
learned further that during the first
hour there was not a democratic elec-,
tion officer inside. When they preson-.
ted ' themselves at seven o’clock there
was no pno there to swear them, tho
alderman having left immediately af
ter swearing in the republican officers.
They were not allowed to serve until
■they were sworn, tintl it was eight
o’clock before they could find anyone
to administer tho oath. The returns
, for the first hour show that one hun
dred and twenty-seven votes were
polled. This alone is evidence of fraud,
because under the most favorable cir
cumstances no more than seventy votes
can bo polled in an hour. Illegal vo
ting seemed to bo the rule of the day ;
two persons voted five times, three
voted three times, and a great many
twice. As many as fifty legal voters
were falsely personated. One of tho
most noticeable cases was the persona
tion of Dr. Cox, on Thirteenth street.—
' A man of .depraved, dissipated appear
ance, clad in filthy, torn garments, pro :
seated himself in a semi-lnebrlatcd
condition, and asserted that ho was Dr,
Cox. His vote was received without
hesitation, it being a fall republican
ono- A oothffr cnae was lllflC of a gen
tleman of fine appearance, who was in
formed that -not only himself but his
absent son and son-in-law had been
represented. Numbers ,of tho best
known, citizens of tho ward wore false
ly personated,'and; no objection Was
alio wad; to bo raised.' There was but
one democratic election, .officer who
wore, a poster, which was frequently
torn from his breast; At 12:30 p. m. he
■was knocked down and beaten shame
fully; so badly that to-day he is upa-,
bja to leave his house. In the morning
ndtizon from a neighboring division
was set on, beaten and locked up by a po
liceman named, Barclay, without any
provocation whatever. One of the
repeaters presented himself at the win
dow, for the purpose of voting under
the name of Charles Berio, residing at
No. 219'North Thirteenth street. The
United States supervisor C. C, Barron,
objected; to him, stating that he; was not
the party, as bo knew him well. Upon
being sworn, ho still persisted that he
was the party. . Mr. Barron asked him
his business, which raised quite a storm
of indignation item the outsiders. Al
derman Quyger interfered and said:.
“ It is none of your business, the man
was sworn ; you have to receive his
vote.” It is unnecessary to state that
this vote was received. Mr. Bar
ton came out of the room a short time
afterwards and was Immediately seized
and taken to the station house and
locked up in a cell. Mr. John O. James,
‘of the firm of James, Kent, Santee &
Co., went there to go his bail. It was
refused, ns I am informed, and the
statement made that they could not
receive any bail. Shortly afterwards
he was released by Alderman Guyger.
An election officer of the municipal
reform ticket was beaten and driven
from the pails and badly beaten,—
They also mode an attack oh Messrs
John James and Samuel M. Neeley.—
It was ns. much as a man’s, life was
worth at this poll to challenge a repub
lican voter. . In one instance,’where a
democrat voted, I myself saw the inspec
tor within Jet the ballot fall over the side,
of, the box, although his vote had been
accepted. My impression was that a
perfect UQanimltyibf' BOtlon!ahd feeling
existed within the|room,as very little
opposition was maplfeated to the con
stant illegal'voting. No' hourly returns
were read alter nine o’clock, A slight
force was enacted by Mr. .Bollock ap
pearing at the .window above on one oc
casion and. announcing that Hartranft
had received, for. that hour sixty-five
votes and Jiuckalew one, aluithat. it was
too much trouble to "read, further. At
Intervals gangs of' repeaters voted and
then moved on to other divisions. The
hourly .returns Were carried in open cigar
boxes tbrqugh a bar room out to Race
etfopt, and from thence to Lybrandt,
street; and-up a narrow staircase to the
.seCobd story of the dwelling.- ' v:

Relieve that Horace. Greeley will receive
, ifrotn ’ (be party ten more
’voles Iti every township In Ohio than the
■Demboraiio, Auditor General Wiley did
for Secretary of Slate from that party?
[lt .id’hot J reasonable 'lp so suppose ? As
.there are two thousand townships, this
Would make a feiange of twenty,thbti
sand, which, taken from Wlkoff, the
Republican Secretary of State, and ad
ded pn .to Greeley, would give us an .ad
vantage i of, ,40,050 over tho October
election. We may rely upon It that the
Republican Vote for Greeley in Novem
ber Is going to be far heavier than it was
for General Wiley In October. Wp h?ar
on every hand of men who voted for the
Republican State ticket now announcing'
that ■ they will vote for Greeley. But,
says an objector, wo don’t doubt that
Greeley will gain largely on Wiley from
tho Republican's, but won’t be lose from
tho Democratic side of the house? We
(to not believe be will. There is among
the rank and file of the' Democracy the
strongest fear that ohr Government will
(re destroyed if Grant is re-elected and
the present reign of tyranny and corrupi
tion Is continued for four years more. In
addition, there is an aversion and dislike
to Grant personally among the Demo
crats which excels their hostility to
almost any other man in th,e country.—
Morton, Simon Cameron and Butler are
pot more' 'generally hated and de
spised. No Democrat Is going to vote
for Grant. . Democrats are loyal to their
organization, and, as It has pronounced
for Mr. Greeley, and as lie Is Grant's on
ly competitor, they will. support him
with unanimity. The Presidential vote
Will bring thousands of Democrats but
who have not, been,out since 1888. Bo
we can reasonably expect, In addition to
increased Republican vote for Mr. Gree
ley. a much larger Democratic vote than
was thrown in October. If there are any
Democrats so foolish as to refuse to sup-,
port Mr: Greeley, they absonteod, .them
selves In 'Octobbr In order to do him ah
Injury.' We cah count as firm and relia
ble allbf Gene Val Wiley’s' vote, and that
'will be enough, with the Republican're
inforcements we are bound to receive, to
give us the State: '
OAMEEON MD FOEIfEX,
Sincelhe late election Forney's .Press
has “ returned to Its vomit,” andis quite
obsequious again to the Grant Interest,
although It openly acknowledges that
the great bulk of Hartranft’s majority
was accomplished by bribery and fraud.
On the other hand Simon Cameron and
hia.aatelitea, the Harrisburg Telegraph,
Philadelphia Bulletin, and even the staid
old .North American, loudly demand the
ostracism of Forney, McClure, Curtin,
Slifer and all other Republicans who
supported Buokatew. Cameron even
went to Washington, it Is reported, and
demanded that Instantly the frowns of
the federal administration should be
lowered against the “return to the to Id”
of any of the recalcitrants, and Russell
Errett, the Radical, Chairman of the
State Committee', opeuly declares that
neither Forney nor Curtin shall be per
mitted to make speeches for Grant.—
Thus the ill-gotten victory of the Cam
efohites'has caused them to put on airs.
iHerels how the Philadelphia Bulletin
piifa it: ,
“We want no help in November from
the men who deserted us In October.—
We protest in the name of the working
men of the republican party, in advance,
against any recognition of Johu \V. For-,
pey or Governor Curtin as advocates of
President Grant in the remaining cam
paign. They would have beaten him at
the election on the Bth inst., if they
eeuld. We do not want their services
nbw. And we demand in the name of
the thousands whom we Enow that we
represent, that no republican committee,
national, state, or local, shall permit
these men to speak for us anywhere in
pretended support of the national ticket
whose success we have insured. We
Will fight It out on October lines, under
October's banners, and with October’s
leaders. Others may vote for Gran tor
not as they please, ft is only those who
voted for him at the recen t election that
have, any right to. enter into his coming
triumph.”., ....

generally: confessed that If. this man’s

AN UNBLUSHING PROCESS OF RADICAL REPEATIROj
:How Hartranft's Majority was Manafao'
tnied,
(Correspondence of tlio Washington Putrpn.)
: Pmr.ADELPiri'A, October 0, IS72.—The
result of the election has probably been a
surprise to you almost ns great as to.those
here who thought tbemfleives weliposted.
But the result caa be easily explained
jby those who were here and watched the
ivptlng. , .. . '■ .
Your correspondent, during the day,'
visited the precincts’of the Fourth, Fifth,
Eighth, Ninth, Tenth)
■Eleventh, Fourteenth and Fifteenth
wards, and In nearly every one of these,
at two o’clock,
DUCKIADW HAD RUN DARGEDY AHEAD
of his ticket, and Hartranft had been
badly .scratched by his own party- Tu
the Eleventh ward a gang of twenty-four
New York repeaters visited precinct
after precinct and votedon the names of
Democrats whose votes bad not been
polled. In many oases the Democratic
canvassers challenged them, but were
compelled to allow their voles to go lu
under threats of arrest ami closing of the
polls by the police.
. The.FbUrth ward, a Democratic strong-
JioldpWnS'a there market place) the Re
publicans openly offering from five' to
fifteen dollars for a vole; the result Is
seen in the! Democratic majority being
only 800, When it should have heed at
least‘2,ooo. It was, and now is, openly
Charged that
ALDKUHAN MCMOLLIN AND 9AM’I/ JOSEPHS
bud received a large sum, and the pardon
of one bf thblr gang, named Bob Dialer)
as, a consideration for the sale of their
tneu to the Republicans. M'MulUn was.
attacked .op the, street, and barely e/)r
caped by the aid of. those whom be paid
to, vote the Republican, ticket. Josephs,
nominated ,pu,..the,. Democratic ticket,
.was, at the last moment, placed on the
Republican ticket, and received the votes
of that party, and an election to the legis
lature as a consideration for his services.
Arid this, 1 after every Republican paper,
|n' Philadelphia had over arid oyer again
denounced him as a rascal; .So in aupfhv
er eaSe;'' Captairi jßach, ari honest Re'-'
publican, was forced off - the'ticket, arid a'
Democrat, John Welch, placed on Itl
Welch' Was elected by a large majority.
The law makes it compulsory upon
the election ofllcera to read the vote
every hour, Not'forty precincts In the
city, did: this, and after two o’clock not"
ten of 'them did it. At that time, so far
aa,could;be told.
DrAETRANET OKiY LED TWENTY-ONE HUNDRED
IN THE CITY,
but. at six o’clock they had him 15,000.
It la well known that the heavy Demo
cratic vote la polled after two o’clock,
and at that hour beta could be obtained
that Harlranft would not get 5,000 In tl\e
oily. ' " ' ’
The poll at Sixth ami Lombard showed
X FEARFULLY INCREASED NEGRO 'vote.
the polling being 125 to 1, and no Dem
ocrat standing a chance to get a vote, the
polls being almost blockaded. Aa I
warned you In my letter, on,Monday,
tb© trouble would be, not Ini the voting,
but in the counting, and it is suscepti-
ble of proof that In precincts where the
municipal reformers and Republicans
scratched Hartranftto the extent of forty
votes, on the total count he led the poll.
It was known at Democratic headquar
ters that our own Inspection officers bad
been tampered with, but It was too late'
to change them.
:To sum up, we were bought out by the
Ring, and sold out largely by our own
raon.
Grant's Economy,
(Barnstable Is a port of entry in the
very Radical State of Massachusetts.
During tbo yuut eliding on lb* 18th of
April last, its commerce consisted of:
Imports.
Exports.
In order to take charge of Ihe enor
mous business of the Port as above ex
hibited, Barnstable has the following
Custom House officers, at the salaries
named ;
One collector .. ~ ..81.993
One deputy collector and inspector JUO9S
One deputy collector and inspector: 900
Two deputy collectors and 1,600

who winks at and fosters corruption by

tq be such—who violates bis oath of of

office, when, it Is expressly forbidden by
ait of Congress—by makins'Jtho civil

Tub amount of money expended In.
this Btate by the Grant State Committee,
to carry Hartranft, Is placed at threq mil;
lion dollars., This Is the estimate made
by said committee and vouched for by
one who has unusual facilities far ascer
