McLean, of the Cincinnati Enquirer, caused a poll tobe made of the State. He took this, to the national Democratic committee and compared notes with theirpoll, which showed about the sameresult. Then Mr. McLean asked: “ ‘Do you know what this means?’ ” “The members of the committeesaid they did. “ ‘It means,’ said Mr. McLean, ‘that our poll shows the State to be500 Republican.’ “Mr. McLean then, said that he made a poll four years ago and theresult showed 700 Republican majority, and the State want 2,300 forHarrison. And here is another, a special to the Commercial Gazette from Indianapolis in the same strain. It says: The Democratic poll of Indiana shows them just 300 votes short of a plurality and unless Republicans are counted out or hired to go hunting, the State is believed to- be certain to > go Republican. It appears that the chief schemes relied upon is .to throw out every Republican ballot possible under the-, law.. The Democratic election officers have been advised in a circularletter sent out from the State committee, that if 'three Republican ballots technically, questionable, can bo thrown out in each precinct, and’ three of the same kind of Democratic ballots counted in, the Statewill give a Democratic plurality of 15,000. Another circular letter, which came to light to-day, instruct, ed the election officers, “in order-ifo* facilitate the count,” to airange the straight Democratic tickets in one-, lot, the straight Republican in another, and all mixed tickets in a. third lot. This is clearly in violation of law, which directs that eachballot must be counted as it is taken from the ballot-box: The purpose of' this instruction is hinted at in the> emphatic injunction closing the instruction, thus: “Then count.” Any person wishing a Webster’s."
