Hunter Township had 2nl white* voters registered and 2$3 colored registered making 4-T registered voters. But "197 votos wore polled. Whore was tho falling otr, att i what the cause? Assuming then that all tho whites voted and al! went "dry," you have had :\t least It'd negro votes. Again as. suming that tn? w hite man voted "wet" at your box, y.*0 have the ne gro vote li-- dry to 53 wet.
