Being Sent out to Pogulfst Leaders,
IV bat it AlcanS. " ' ;
Are the managers bf the.populist
party in G£O f gia preparing in
desperation over the- defeat Which
they know is coming to them; to
resort to fraud?
It fooLs as if some queer business
was being done.
From; information received at
the .office of the secretary of state it
is evident that the populists are
sending out to the different coun
ties of the state. b< gus election
blanks. Just for what purpose
thie is being done it is, not clear,
but that it opens tip a number of
avenues of possible fraud 1b very
evident.
Under the law itis the 'duty of
-the secretary of state to send to the
ordinaries of the various counties
the necessary blanks for election
returns. Each ordinary is sent
district blanks and blanks upon
which the consolidated, vote of the
couuty is made out-. 'I he district
blanks go to the managers in each
militia district and the consolidated
blanks are for the use of the con
solidation boards, when they meet
the next day afted the-election aud
prepare the county leturns, one
copy of which is kept ih the office
of the ordinary and the other sent
to the secretary of state.
The law is very emphatic as to
the necessity of using the particular
blanks and the secretary of state
has always been very careful to
have them promptly prepared.
But the bogus blanks have been
sent out from Atlauta on the evi
dence all points to their having
come lrom populist headquarters.
The discovery was made through
the effort of a mail carrier to secure
from the secretary of state postage
that was due on a big handle of
election blanks. Secretary Can
dler was suspicious, because his
blanks went out three weeks ago,
and they were sent in a different
sort of package from that which
was brought to him yesterday.
An investigation showed that this
bundle was being sent to a private
citizen, and further that the blanks
were exact copies of those sent by
fhe secretary of state.
This discovery crested a genuine
sensation at the capitol,
WHERE FRAUD IS POSSIBLE..
‘‘Of course,” said Secretary Can
dler. “It is only possible to sur
mise for what purpose these blanks
have been sent out.- It is very
suspicious indeed. Now, if some
populist in a county has an extra
set of election blanks he could gll
them out to -uit himself, forge the 1
signature of the election managers,
and send them on to me so they
would have all the appearance of
being genuine. Such forged re
turns might very easily get here
first and be counted, and perhaps
have a direct bearing on the result,.
It is very suspicious to say' the
least. I can see no other reason
why bogus blanks should - be sent
out, and it is yery necessary there
fore, that democrats he on the out
look for sharp practice.” -
At democratic headquarters the
discovery also made a decided sen
sation C onsensus'of opinion there
was that it was part of a populist
plan to perpetrate fraud in this
election. The fact is very apparent
from information which the com
mittee has, that the populists have
lost all hope of winning anything
by lair means, and it is believe
that they are going to make a
strong effort to secure some mem
bers oi the legislature iu close
counties by resorting to question
able methods.—Atlanta Constitu
tion,
We differ somewhat from the
view taken, in the above clipping,
of the probable are at least possible
■reason why, the populist have sent
out duplicate sets of election
blanks. We do not believe the
pulists would attempt to carry
he coming election by wholesale
igery and fraud; we have opinion
their honest judging by those
,om we know.
Say what you please, it is a great
advantage to any party to have
any election managed by members
of a particular party, or managed
by a majority of the members ot
that party at the several precincts,
Jo make our meaning clear, we
illustrate:

the prt-cincta by cit mo-
craticTffianagers, our state execu
tive commute*,'- very -/unwise we
flunk, haying iefuscd to consent
to allow the populist a place on
floatds of the .election managers:
Now in our judgement it is to
prevent this that the duplicate
election blauks have be>n sent out-i
They .have rib doubt been sent to
zeal-Tus popuiiwt free-holders, and
J. P’s. These Lee-holders aud
J. P’s. will be at the several pre
cincts “on time,” and have blanks
in proper form, poph'ist managers
will be sworn in the moment the
polls can be lawfully opened, and
they will thus have legal control of
every election: precihct thus first
opened.
This we think is the meaning
of the duplicate blanks sent out;
and the only way to check—mate
the mov*q is for democratic free
holders and Justices of the Peace,
if the latter will be present;—if
not by all means three democratic
irte-holders should be on the
giound, with the election blanks
8?ht out by the Secretary of State;-
and ready, when the hour prescrib
ed by law arrives to open the elec
tion at each precinct in the' State,
To do this the ft\-e-holders or Jus
tices of the Peace to whom the
bla iks have been seat should have
them filled out anh ready to s 'gn,
We will aay however tilit justice
aDd business require that a popu
list should be sworn in as one of
the managers at every prcinct in
the State; and we hope it will be
done.
