ELECTlON FRAUDS.

Nothing is more essential TO the preseIVa-

tie purity of the elective franchise. We would

ahemanner in which the right Of suffrage s
assaulted, in order thai be may know how to
guard against this most insIdiUus and fatal en-
omy of free government in modern times.
That the practice OF fraud in elections has
been very extensive in the United Statos since
1887, no intelligent man doubts. Successive
disclosures have proved that the elections in
New York city were carried by fraud in 1888
and 1889. The instruments, the means, and
mode Of operation, have all been laid bare, SO
as to place the matter beyond doubt o. caSh.
But these disclosures are contained in state.
meuts embracing much detail, and too long
and complicated to be generally read and un-
derslood.
We proposeto coudense and connect them
together BY explanatory remarks, so as to ena-
BILE every reader clearly 10 understand their sp
plication, bringing the whole within the COM
pass Of q single number Of Kendall's Exposi"
tor. On the main points the language OF the
statements will be retained, and on allpoiAts
our aim will be neither 10 add or 10 detract
any Thing of substance 10 or from The evidence
therein embraced, but 10 present facts precise"

We shall endeavor 10 avail ourselves OF fur
thsr evidence not YET published but known to
exist, showing that the scheme Of fraud Was
no, confined 10 the city Of New York.
These facts should be brought 10 the know

Of 81 to LIZ. These restrictions were a part
Of the Wing prescription system Of the extra

WING CONSISTENCY.

While the House was discussing the resolu-
tvn Of Mr. McClelland of New York, directing
the Secretary of War to repor % the House by
what authority General Winfield Scott received
$4,000 extra compensation from the War De-
parmcn', we heard several members cry out that
General Jackson received extra compensation
before him. Allowing this to be true, and what
does it prove! Why, simply this-tliat when
General Jackson received his crfra, there was
no law OF Congress to prevent it: BUT, wHE';
GEN SCoTT RECEIVED Ills, THERE WAS AN EX-
prEss STATUTE OF THE UNITED STATES AGAINST
THE ALLOWANCE. There is no sin without The
law, according TO Saint Paul, and those wise men
Of Congress, Who feel an itching to draw the o!d
Roman in for an extra allowance, had: bette.
