fully tho membrr of the oli'rttnn hoard
guilty of the crime and docs not entire
ly hold the other monitor of tho hoard
blium'li'Hs. Following 1 Judgo Kued'a
d'H'iBion:
"Tho potltlnnor ulli'go thnt tho vote
cant for constable In the north precinct
of tho election district of Punxsutnwney
borough was falsely read, computed und
certified by the election officer of that
district, and the evidence fully mistnlns,
In thl respect, the allegations of the
petition, and disclose a Htato of affair
truly startllnif. A disposition to ex
culpute, us far as possible, all who were
not actively concerned In thl astound
ing criminal conduct, leads n to remark
that tho testimony points to but one
member of the election board who acted
corruptly. Tho other member of the
board are only censurable in so far a
their passive conduct and neglect of
duty miule it possible for their nssocluto
to carry into effect his criminal purpose.
They cannot, however, be held entirely
blameless, because if they had exorcised
that degree of care and vigilance which
tho law impose upon every election
officer, this bold, despicable scheme to
defeat tho will of the majority never
could have succeeded to tho extent It
did.
The right to cast a freo ballot, and to
have it honestly counted, is inherent in
our form of government, and tho election
officer who wilfully and corruptly
tampers with this right is at once an
object of pity and contempt. Ha rlcnly
deserves the political ostracism which
follow such criminal conduct, and he
should kIro be mitdu to suffer the legal
penality of his crime.
Tho testimony in thl case Is clear,
convincing, and beyond dispute that the
ballots in tho north precinct, so far
as they reluted to the office or constable,
were falsely and fraudulently read.
computed and oertlrlod. The second
night following the election, tho ballot
box for this precinct was broken open,
and 113 ballots removed therefrom, no
doubt with a view of destroying the
evidence of the fraudulent count
previously made. There wore 37H bul-
lotg cast, and of this number zo.i remain-
ed in the box. An examination of these
ballots showed 142 for Hen Hecord, 100
for I. N. Grafflus, 7 blunk and 5 void as
to constable, and by an inspection or
tho ballot numbers, and chocking them
on the tally list remaining in the box,
it was ascertained who cast the 11.'!
missing ballots. Tho testimony of 102
of those electors was taken, and of that
number HO swore thev voted for Ben.
Record, 40 for I. Ji. Gurffius. and 2
declined to disclose for whom they
voted. The count or the vote as cast in
tho south precinct is not questioned,
and the return shows that Ben. Record
received 152 votes, and I. N. Grading
105 votes.
A recapitulation of the vote for
constable, in the two election districts
of Punxsutawney borough as disclosed
by tho return of tho election officers,

case, show the rollowlng result;

It is seldom thai the courts are called
upon to investigate a more palpable
una outraguous iruua than the one per
pctratod in thl case. Its denunciation
cannot he couched In languuge too
sevoro. Tho ulfonce is closely allied to
treason, und mo man who is mostloath
ed und despised is the man who is I
traitor to his country and to his
country's institutions. By his treachery
and totruyul of a sacred trust he
becomes a marked inun at whom the
ages point the finger of contempt and
soorn, and his posterity welcome the
time when they can deny that they
ever Knew mm.
And now, June Oth, 180(1. having fully
heard and considered this case, It is
ordered, ajudged and decreed that the
return of the election bourd of Punxsu
tawney Borough of the election of I. N.
Grulltus to the office of Constable be set
aside, und it is further ordered, ajudifed
and deureed that Ben. Record, at the
election held February 18, 180(1, received
the greatest number of legal votos oast
for the offioo of constable in the said
borough, und was duly elected, and is
entitled to the said otlloe of oonstuble,
as appears by the foregoing statemont
. of the votes oust at said election, and
computed by the Court. It is ulso
ordered that the borough of Punxsu
tawney puy the costs of this contest, In
eluding the stenographer's und
examiner's charges."
