Col. Aull Says
Count WSH Wrong.
Col. Elbert H. Aull, of Newberry,
was In Auderson last night and while
hnre told a reporter for The Intelli
gencer that there were a number of
mistakes made in counting the votes
cast In the last election. Mr. Aull says
that figures for Ocnnee county show
that Mr. Aiken. In his race for con
gress, received a total of 1.912 votes,
when the totals ?rom thc precincts lc
Oconee county, when added together,
gav him a total of only 1.642 voteB.
Mr. Aull eayn that while this particu
lar Instance may atnouut to but little,
nevertheless enough such mistakes
would make a big difference In the
total of any vote.
