An examination of the figures
of last Tuesday's vote retulta in
some very curious and interesting
revelations. It will be remembered
that the Post, from tb
insisted that Bryan's chances were
gooa, mat at any stage of the cam
paign his election was a possibility,
and that 3IcKinley's election, al
though we regarded it as highly
probable, depended after all upon a
rery narrow and uncertain margin.
As unanswerable proof that we were
right in this, we now call attention
to tbe following table, showing how
a change of little more than '.,000
votes, distributed over nine States,
would have elected Bryan, notwith
standing his big majorities elserhere:

The Challenge.
For The Caucasian.
My recent challenge that "The na
tional Republican nmrty ha3 commit
ted more frauds against the ballot box
than any and all other parties that ever
had an existence in itiis country com
bined," not having been accepted, I beg
leave to submit a few remarks for the
purpose of establishing the above alle
gation. In lNU;i, (during the war) on the
morning of the election in Kentucky
60,000 Federal soldiers were distribut
ed among the various election prer
clncts in said State. They took pos
wtston ot the toU and had everything
their own way, which gave them an
ODnortunitv to "fix" matters before the
vote was counted. As a result, Thos.
K. Bramlette, the Republican candi
date for Governor, was elected by a
large majority, and I believe the entire
Republican ticket alao.
Maryland was also carried at or about
the same time by the Republicans,
methods similar to the above beingem-
Eloyed. (See "Our Country's Crisis,"
y Amos Kendall, who was Postmaster
General under Gen. Jackson. Also,
"Object of the Administration in Pros
ecuting the War," by the undersigned.
This document and probably Mr. Ken
dall's also, is on file in the Congress
ional Library at Washington.)
It is a well known fact that Hayes
was a fraud from beginning to end,
never having been elected, but simply
fraudulently counted in. Consequent
ly the word, President, should never be
associated with bis name.
To elect Hayes it was necessary for
him to carry South Carolina, Florida,
Louisiana and Oregon, and would then
have bad but 1 majority.
Soon after the election McLynn, the
Republican manipulator of Florid-,
lost his wife and several children. Be
linvincrth&t it was a iudsrment from
heaven and probably fearing other di3
Total
These changes would have given
every one of the nine .States to Bry
an, and adding their CO votes to the
1C he got elsewhere, would have
made his strength in the electoral
college lit three more than fcc
needed to make him'Pregidcnt.
It is a serious rpllection that the
changing of only J5,3'J3 votes as a I
matter of fact the change of 23,020
votes would have accomplished the
result is all that stood between the
election of McKinley aDd the elec-l
tion of Bryan. We commend this
reflection to the gentlemen who are
mrowin up tceir nats ana scream
ing tbejiselvcs black in the faco'
vith nonsense about landslides and
similar absurdities. Mr. Mckinley
got tremendous majorities in New
England, New York, Pennsylvania,
Iowa, Michigan, and Illinois, but in
tne iesir ot tue country he had a
mighty narrow escape from defeat.

Xot only the newspaper correspond
ents, bur a majority of the election
officials in California, admit that some
thousands of votes have been deliber
ately taken away from Bryan by the
returning officers or certain localities,
who insisted upon counting me jopu
list tickets in one column and the
Democratic tickets in another, thus
dividing the Bryan vote and giving a
plurality on McKinley it tne two
tickets Led differed in anything but
the legend or symbol at the top, their
division in the count wouia nave neen
perfectly legitimate. Tliore was no
such difference, however. The tickets
contained exactly the same names.
Both were Bryan and Sewall tickets,
and both should have been eel aowu in
the Democratic column. If tne act ot
dividing the Bryan vote on tins siiai-
low pretext is not iraua, we corneas
that we do net know the meaning of
the wora.
In Kentuckv the chicanery is mere
elaborate and more determined. There,
if we may believe apparently authen

firmed by appearances, rne returns
from the strong Kep'. blican district,
the Eleventh, were held back, pre

approved political device much. "re

remember how the re! urns from the
Coney Inland district were held up in
2834, and how, for three whole days,
the country palpitated with uncer
tainty as to whether Blaine or Cleve
land had been elected. It turned cut,
finally. that Mr. Cleveland had about
1,100 the better of ttrj count, and upon
that showhig he became President of

show a little change in value, being
worth $43,107,131 in 1895 as against
$13,02(1,711 in 1804.
The iteina of personal property and

The unlisted taxables this year are
S9,U0,21. Last year they were only
$53,154,27. This increase of $33,731,94
is due to the tax of $10 on lawyers
doctors and dentists imposed by the
last legislature, from which 01,790 was
realized ; the tax of 50 cents on each
bed in every hotel and boarding, house
which paid into the treasury $2,5C3,
and the corporation tax which paid
5,910.
The rate of taxation fixed by the
laf.t legislature was 21 2-3 cents for the
Mate, instead of 22 cents as heretofore
ai;d l! cents f r tchools as against 1G
cents before. This caused an increase
of $o2,(" 0.3,30 in the school tax, and an
increase in county taxes of $373,137.80.
School taxes this year amounted to
$347,578,57 as against $705,510,27 in
1391, and are divided as follows:
White polls, $205,990,20; colored polls,
$112,019,01; bank and building and

$45,184,37; generaly property (white),
$402,829,05; general property (colored),

County taxes in 1895 aggregated
$1,911,305,56 as compared with $1,039,

tha mmnnicrt
Inasmuch as other appointees of the
present -administration, including
many in your own department, have
been permitted to take an active part
against Mr. Bryan in the campaign
not only on the stump, but in the work
of organization, without rebuke
nr removal, it is evident that the
cause of my effending lies not in my
actions, but in my convictions.
It follows, therefore, that you have
caused your great oflice to suppress
freedom of thought and action, and lo
punish those wno aare to amer irum
you a thing msupponaDie m u
governmentby terrorizing over the
weak urirl humble.
For such abuse of public oflice, wnicn
is a public trust, you cannot but be
held accountable at tne Dar oi puouc
opinion as well as by the verdict of
msiory.
In conclusion I can only say tnat
humble as I am I would rather be a
discharged employe of the Treasury
Department, discharged lor doing my
duty as I see it for my people, than to
be Secretary oi tne l reasury witn a
record oi seir-stuitiucation, such as
you have made for yourself, staring
me in tne iace. .
This much of a protest I deem it
proper to make against your treach
erous and tyranous action.
Very truly yours,

"The first movement he will make
will be to obtain sufficient revenue to
conduct the government. Further is
sues of bond3 would be altogether too
dangerous. Business prosperity and
stability demand that as soon as possi

"To this end, an extra session of
Congress will be necessary, and Presi

one soon after his inauguration.

To the Editor of tbe New York "World.
Baltimore, Md , Nov. 5, 189G
Now that the campaign is over
and tho "World is triumphing over
the defeat of Mr. Bryan, permit me
to ask whether the trusts, which will
undoubtedly tighten their grip on
the people, are a greater evil than
the election of Mr. Bryan would
have been? Of what benefit is a gold
RtTtda.Td to the poor man, when
there is a trust on his left, a trust on
his right, a trust behind nim and a
trust in front , of him! Yon fought
the trusts for a number of years. Is
not now all your labor lest? Ignor
ant as the masses may be, their eyes
are not closed to the greater evil
which will result from protection
and trusts. I for cno are not thank
