But still there was fear that this corrupt police force had not done enough in contributing $20.000 to the fund to pay these repeaters and in driving from the polling places in that district the deputy sheriffs. men having equal authority with themselves. and driving away the challengers. Squads of them went down to the polling place just as "the Indians" were coming. aad cleared the way to see that no one interfered with them. Now. by these methods. by fraudulent naturalization. by void naturalization. by corrupt use of money. by fraudulent registration. by using repeaters. by every means known to man by which the ballot box may be debauched. they succeeded in carrying this election. as they claim. for James J. Butler. But all these things were not. they feared. sufficient.
