THE CASE OF NIB. BROOKS.

The Committee on Elections of the House
yesterday agreed to Dust the Hon. Jas. Brooks,
a supporter of the Administration, and to give
the seat to William +. Dodge, the contestant
The district is conservative by 5000 majority,
and Mr.. Brooks could be reelected by that
vote if he desires reelection.
This action Of the Committee, in partizan one.
sidedness surpasses the most notorious cases
of English Parliamentary committee partizan
fayoritism. Mr.. Brooks brief makes a re-
markable exhibit of the manner in which the
campaign was conducted by his wealthy op-
ponent with items as to how q bogus
Tammany Hall candidate was hired to
run against Mr.. Brooks, to divide the
conservative vote. Accompanying this ex-
hibit is significant extract from the Anti
Bribery law OF New York. The further de-
yelopments, when the case shall come up in
the House for debate, promise to be exceeding
ly creamy, as illustrative of the manner in
which New Y ork ELECTIONS" are managed by
those who can afford to pay the piper.
MIR. Brooks has proved himself one of the
ablest and most accomplished representatives
New York has ever sent here, and the En-
pire State and city can i'll afford to spare him.
