held, sntl the candidate ttcclared eleciod hss received s majority of sll ih* votes
cast. Wss this such sn election? An election, under th* «.tatut«, must tw htld.
sulntsntlally at th* time, in the manner and vith all the safeguards providod by
Uw. A choice of ih* elecU>r* mlirhi be determined In some otber way, but it would
not be an election; It woold o«t bave the snactina of the lsw. Any other conclusion would annul, in practice, every enactment for the purity of the ballot and giv*
to corrupt officials the power of control.
In the rase before us It appear* an entire township, a political divinion of ihe
oounty. containing one hundred and seventy electom. had no voice In th* election:
that the electors residing therein were deprived of their right to cast thejr ballot by
the wrongful conduct of lh« official* in chargo of lhe polls. At least niitety-ihre*
electors tendered their voles and th* samo were wrongfully refused. Her© sre
enough voles lo have changed lhe declared result and sixty-six morr. The deposition* of these ninety-three elector* ani on file slating for whom tbey would have
voted. Csui we consider for whom tippet vote* would have been cast or give such
testimony sny effect? Wr tblnk mit. Reason a* we msy, it wouhl. In practical
•ffect, call upon th« court to hold an election ln t'nlon township, where such an
election would not tx. surrounded by any of tbo mtfejrtntrds. or at the time ur plaee,
ot in the manner prescribed by law, and tinder such circumstance* that we can
hardly suppott* Iho samo result would be reached as at a »tatutory election, while
the temptation to jtfrjury and subortlination of prjurs wouid certainly Ihj grtsv.
Beside*!, the whole policy of our election laws now i* to purify elocilon* by prott-ci-
Ing thc secrecy of tho ballot, and It certainly confer* U(KM) lbs elector tbe prlvftsg*
of refusing to testify lidw he voted. Or for whom bo would tisve cast hi* tote, and
thc court, for information, would be nt the mercy of the wltno*. A choice oould
never be determined In this way.
From the admitted fact* in this case, the rncnl Conservative conrlu*lon at
which we can arrive I* that, as to the office Of Probate Judge, no valid stacttoQ wa*
hold, and no choice, by the elec^.r* of the county, for this i>tt!r«> was mad*-, and
that the OODtsStcs wa* nol legally td.cn-d to the office of Probate Judge of Pik*
county.    An entry may be made accordingly. J. M. Wootvt. Jodgs,
As ihi* case was submitted ujy.»n an agreed statement ttf fact*, the ait/.rn_-\»
on bqth sides agreeing lo let the evidence In this case represent the other election
cases, tbe decision in lb* above case will cover all of ihe contest cases. The attorneys for the Democratic office lie! der*. however, ant making a dttsnalftsd effort to
sneak out of th t agreement, hoping thus to delay a hearing of the other cavn, snd
v> hold op to ihelr office* in the meantime.' Tho facu hsve been submitted io the
court and a final decision ts expected In a few days.
