The eyidence and the written con- fession prove that when the election was in progress an organized party of strangers from the outside practically took possession of the constituency. This party was captained and led by special political agents among whom are cited Mr. W. T. R. Iheston, who dropped a remunerative government position to become government organ- izer for the bye-election. The tasks allotted to the strangers partook of various forms of rascality. Some were harbOured by local supportâ€" ers of Mr. Macnish. These men were employed, Mr. Macnish says, in the payment of large sums “of money" to electors to induce them to vote for him. Others performed the work of personation. They appeared at the polling booths, and voted for Mr. Mac- L nish in the names of qualified voters, ' who were thus prevented from voting. Others again actually became deputy returning officers under false names. One of these political brigands was a ‘ man named “Marty” Cahill, well- tknown in Lindsay as a hotel' porter. These presided at certain polling booths and stuffed the ballot- boxes. Mr. \Iac- nish admits that they recorded for him more votes than were cast in his behalf, and that by nefarious and corrupt means they manipulated the ballot cast for Mr. McDiarmid so as to affect the election disadvantageously to him.; Three of these men, it may be said, have been discovered, and are fugitives from justice. We do not believe thal this West Elgin rascality, admitted to be such by Mr. Macnish, is an isolated case of fraud. On the contrary, it is merely a sample. In South Ontario the very men who carried West Elgin for Mr. Macnish carried that eonstitu- ency for Mr. Dryden. In West Huron the same men worked for Mr. Garrows : In all the constituencies in which bye- ? elections have been held, there has ' been deliberate fraud and the only difference between West Elgin and these other constituencies is that in the , one case the thing has been found out, proven, and confessed to, whereas in the others the fraud is known to have been perpetrated but has not been legally established.
