A six page report concerning the plebiscite of Oct. 2, 1870, with a date line from Rome, Italy. In it is shown the fact that the plebiscite was a farce, with actual freedom of voting interfered with, ballot boxes were stuffed, the voter had to select a Yes or No vote held out to him by the officials, and that terrorism was the basis of the elections. It is pointed out that the people sympathise with the Pope and not with the invaders and that this is strikingly demonstrated by the adherence of public officials to the Pope. It is pointed out that many have quit their civil posts, and that a handful of the aristocrats have gone over to the invaders while the immense majority are with the Pope. The middle classes have shown their sympathy by staying away from the public rejoicings got up by the invaders. Whereas when the Pope appeared, there used to be crowds of 60,000 or more, now there are but a few thousands to cheer the invader, and these are mostly from the Ghetto. Another proof is the fact that the Catholic churches, even as late as 11:00, are filled with crowds praying for deliverance from the present heavy oppression. :: I-1-n 6pp. 12mo.
