SCRATCHED TICKET\
Candidates Don't Like Idea of
Their Distribution
Unite anil Ask Col. Jones to Distribute
No More Tickets to Candidates
Until They Themselves
Can Decide What
to Do.
Columbia Record.
unairman .Jones, of the State
Democratic executive committee,
announced Saturday thut tliesurplus
primary tickets of the com
mittee could i>o obtained by can
didatcs, and at the same time
stated that only the official tick
ets would be counted and that
ticket must contain the names of
all the candidates. Ho also announced
that any candidates who
wauted only his own name to appear
for the ollice to which he aspired
on the ticket could have it
so, by tffking the otficial ballot
and scratching the names of the
others. These plans for some
reason do not suit the views of
the candidates and they have telegraphed
Colonel Jones not to allow
candidates to receive any
more of tho otficial tickets until
they, the candidates, could decide
themselves what should bo done
about it in this particular. Colonel
Jones has followed their advice.
It is not clear what the
objection is as to candidates receiving
as many official tickets as
the committee can allow them.
Any cundidato is at liberty to
have any number of similar tickets
printed and distributed at tbo
polls. Tho official ticket may be
of any size or style just so it lias
the names of all candidates printed
on them, and tbo only difference
in the distribution of the
committee' tickets and those of
candidates would be that in the
former case they would get them
free and in tho latter they would
hnvft t ko \r
r-r xw, lucuiw.vca.
Tho objection that candidates
have to allowing candidates to
scratch iho names of all ot her can
didatcs for a particular otllce except
their own is also an impracticable
one. They claim that
such scratched tickets would get
mixed up with those not so defaced,
and that some voters might be
misled by them. As a matter of
fact even if the committee furnished
tickets to a candidate, it
would have nothing to do with
tho scratching of them. If candidates
do not receive committee
tickets they can print otHcial ticket
of their own and scratch them
and there is no rule to preyeut
them scratching names on the
tickets before they are out. The
managers of election have to ceunt
all official lmllols, however scratch
od and there is no rule to prevent
any numbei of such tickets being
presented to voters at the polls
So if scratched tickets will confuse
some voters there is no way to
prevent their me, and the only
way to obviate the difficulty would
lie for all candidates to hend out
fecratchcd tickets, hut according
to their own belief that would
make confusion worse confound

Tillman Urges Irish To Arm
Stives They Must Eight Engl ind
At tho Best Opportunity. ,
Fears Toryism Hero
Too.
|
In an mldiess to Irish-Auieri
Cms of Chicago at n park in the
suburbs of the Western metropolis
last Friday, Sen iter Tillman
urged the Irishmen of America to
prepare for armed attack on England
and to equip the people of
Ireland for revolution at an opportune
moment The address
was delivered under the auspices
of the Irish Nationalists and the
Clan-na-Gat !. As reported in
the Chicago Kocord-Herald, Sena
tor Tillman said:
"Ireland for many hundreds of
years lius been the Niobo of nations?the
footstool of tyranny
and oppression. The story of
wrongs, tyranny, murders and
infamies are all embraced in the
story of England's domination.
It is not proper or permissible
under the laws of this country to
hatch plots against England, but
1 say that it is right for Irishmen,
before the Almighty, to believe
in self-government for Ireland.
God didn't make tho Irish slaves
to England. 1 believe thut England
should be made to feel in
every possible way?by a revolution
or positive action if opportunity
affords?that it lias not
the right to put Ireland's 4,000,-!
000 people under the heel of the
English nobles who are working
them to death. Never let up.
Continue agitation until you
bring results.
"it may not be proper tor a
United States Senator to discuss]
international affairs?to point out
what is possible or proper for
Americans to do in dealing with
a friendly nation ? but I belong !
to a minority party. I'ho Demo- '
cratic party is not responsible for
the spectacle of ?Iohnny liny hugging
.Johnny Bull. I never did
have any sympathy with sending
an embassy to see Edward crowned.
1 do i.ot believe that citizens
of this free republic, which has
stood as the center of tho target
for England's hatred for years, ]
wanted to break their necks to i
sen J representatives to England
to see Qeen Vic's son get tlie
throne. J did not see that we
had any money to spare in sending
bootlicks over there.
"Wo recently had a doMonstration
of a nation brought to tho
vcreo of disintegration through a
war with 400,000 Dutchmen, j
The pitiful part was that we '
Americans, through tho adminis*
tration, had lost power and right
to even express sympathy with
the Boers. It is a disgrace. Wo
woro so much in sympathy with
British ideas that with our 9,00C000
pooi devils in the Pacific
ocean conquered under bayonets,
we did not have it in our hearts to
question John Bull about his reconcent
rado camps such as made
Weyler a pillory mark.
"Be awake, men. You'll find
some morning that .John Bul'ism
or Toryism has conquered the j
United States, and that you will
have to fight like dogs for your
liberty hero. Everything in our
governmental policy pertaining to
finances is dominated by English
influence. Toryism is rampant.
"Do all von can to heln the I
people lit home unci send arms to
take Kngland or establish your
own county, if the British lion
ever again gets in the death grapple
with another powerfnl country.
Wo in the United States
are not now far from the condition
of the down-trodden Irish under
Ki.gland's heel."
