mmmSSm 9ffSSidU rt-W"39BF flJF THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH. THURSDAY NOVEMBER 5r 189L THE BALLOT ILLEGAL. Allegheny's Indebtedness Sot Toted on According to Law. A PROTEST CAN BE SUSTAINED. The Tickets Were Wonderfully and Mys teriously Made. THE LAW GOTERMXG SUCH CASES Suspicion, doubt and -visions of political trickery flitted through the minds of many Allegheny -voters at the election on Tues day. But without reason, lioweve. The prime cause of this feeling was due to the voting on the "bonded indebtedness" issue. Tickets for all the offices from State down to county were as plentiful as snow flakes in Siberia. The one absorbing topic to the Xorthside citizen, however, was "Will the bonded indebtedness be increased?" In the contest the nays had it by an overwhelming majority. In the first place it is alleged the major ity of voters misunderstood the ticket as framed by the election officers, and many did not vote for or against the bond issue on that account. There were four separate tickets as fol lows: "Street improvements KOO.OOO;" "Water extension, S200.000," "Public lighting, $100,000;" "Opening a street in flooded dis trict, 5150,000." Stjle of Opposition Ticket. On the outside of each ticket for and against was the sentence or caption, "In crease the debt." On the inside of the Fame slip of paper was "Xo increase of debt." and signifyingbelow what it referred to whether water, lights, streets, etc., with the amount of bonds intended to be issued. That was the style of the tickets which were against the increase. On the other hand, the ones intended to be voted for the indebtedness were thus printed: The back contained the same cap tion, "Increase the debt," as appeared on the others, while the inside had the words, Debt may be increased with the same purposes stated as above. The outside and inside type were both in pica caps, and on a whole was very mislead ing to the average voter. Not only to the common everyday uneducated voter, but to men of known brain power and keen percep tion. Clerk of Councils Dilworth framed the-ticket, and he was very bitter and ironi cal in his reference to "those smart people who think they know it all," and he got down the law on the question, which he quoted for the benefit of The Dispatch reporter and the public. The Law on the Subject. It is act 212, parsed Jane it, 1891, and en titled 'An act to regulate the increasing of indebtedness of a municipality." The clause which bears upon the subject at issue specifies the following: "Such election shall be held at the place, time and under the same regulations as provided by law for the holding of municipal elections, and it shall be the duties of the inspectors "and judges of such elections to receive tickets, either written or printed, from electors qualified under the Constitution of this State to vote in such district, tickets to be labeled on the outside, "Increase the debt," and containing on the inside, "Xo increase of debt," or "Debt maybe increased; also briefly the purpose and amount of increase, and to deposit said tickets in a box pro vided for that purpose." "Such election shall be held at the place, time aud under the same regulations as pro vided by law for the holding of municipal elections," the law says, and according to this the voting for and against the indebted ness was illegal, as the contest on Tuesday was not municipal election. Notwithstanding the overwhelming ma jority by which the increase was defeated, if those who voted for it care to protest, they can easily do so, and be upheld in the move by the statutes. The next municipal election will be held on the second Tuesday of November, when the matter should, to satisfy the law, have been voted upon. It Is Clearly Illegal. William IJ. Hodgers, ei-City Attorney ot Allegheny, and one of the authorities on municipal matters, is The Dispatch's legal informant on the point. He, like a hundred others, failed to understand the ticket at first, but when the law was read to him he said the act was now and he was not familiar with it. After hearing it, he read It over again carefully, and then said: "It was illegal anyway, aside from the badly arranged and misleading features of the ticket It is specifically stated in the act that the voting shall take place at the time of the munici pal election. I think that is plain enough. Tuesday's election was a State and county affair, and should have been confined to those offices and issues." Mr. Rogers says he was confused when he looked at the ticket for and against bonds. .He said, however, that in the Fifth ward the caption of the tickets had been torn off Senator James S. Rutan also can be quoted about as the former gentleman. An other potent feature which the Senator raises is that there is no reason why one man could not vote, if he chose, four" votes for one issue, for instance, if he lived in a neighborhood where it would beneficial to him to have street improvements, what is to prevent him from voting four times on that one matter. The ticket is verv incon sistent and conflicting, and should be modi fied or changed so as to make it more com prehensive. A number of other attornevs who live in Allegheny said practically the same thing. WHY IT WAS DEFEATED. The Idea or Increasing Allegheny's Bonded Indebtedness Does Not Meet With Ap proval Recent Disclosures In Munic ipal Affairs Help to Defeat the Measure. The people of Allegheny City do not seem to care to increase their bonded indebted ness for improvements, by the manner in which'they snowed the matter under at the polls Tuesday. Many ideas were advanced as the reasons, as the returns came in Tues day night. Yesterday C. W. Gerwig, a member of the Finance Committee of Alle gheny Councils, expressed the following opinions as to the defeat ot the measure. "It is the general disposition of the peo ple of Allegheny to vote against an increase ofdeDU This fact has been learned by ex perience of former years. This disposition was helped along by the recent disclosure in the city affairs, so that the confidences of the people were shaken in the municipal powers of the city. Then there was not suffi cient time between the introduction of the measure and the elections. The meetings held to explain the question to the public were failures.. Manv matters were dis cussed that did not have any bearing on the issue and were misleading to the people. There was a great, cry that the whole thing was the pet scheme of some Councilmen, who wanted to make a large stake. That was nonsense. The ordinance was passed at the request of a number of the best citizens of the city who wanted im provements on the streets, water, light, etc The Council considered the matter care fully and found the needed improvements in these directions could not be made wjth the present appropriations and thought it better to issue bonds and let posterity pay for it. If e nadnotdonethisanadditional tax rate would have had to be levied and then the improvements could not have been made satisfactorily. "The greatest surprise to the friends of the issue is the manner in which the citi zens of the flooded district voted against the increase. It was thought to be the greatest benefit to them, for the streets are in bad shape, and one of the sewers, which It buried 30 ieet under ground, is liable to cave in at any time, making a great expense to the city and'property holders. "Another matter that was fought hard was the extension of the water mains. I think this showed poor policy, as the amount of revenue received from' water rents in a year or two would have paid the cost of extension. "The matter will now rest until next February, when the appropriation for im provements is made, and if it is not large enough to carry the expenses alon, a higher tax will be levied. This would seem to be more in accordance with the wishes of the public than to float bonds and let our posterity settle for them." DEATHS HEKE AND ELSEWHERE. Captain Nathaniel Richards.
