Mr. Speaker. scores and hundreds of these unnaturalized foreigners were stopped as they were going along the street and were told to come up to the election booth. They protested that they were not naturalized. and the eply was. "Never mind . this is a wet and dry fight. everybody can vote." And they were )rought up and their ballots marked for them. and these men testified to that fact. Boys were induced to come to the polls. boys 18 years old. and to swear to false affidavits that they were of age. and were allowed to vote. Hundreds of men were permitted to vote whose names were not on the voting list. who made no affidavits as required by the laws of the State of Pennsylvania. and they were allowed to vote by the election officials.
