Room OF ELECTIONS AND QUALIFICATIONS, !
House OF Representatives, State of Louisiana,
rev Orleans, September "A, 1858.
To the Honorable Speaker and Members of the
House of Representatives
GENTLEMEN--fh The undersigned, members
OF your Committee on Elections and QuAlif-
cations, to whom was committed the con.
tested election case of the parish of East
Baton Rouge, wherein Victor NJ. LANCE and
Robert Lange contest the seats of B. E.
CLANCY and IJohn s. Huguet. beg leave to
report to your honorable body that they
differ with the majority report for the fol-
lowing reasons:
First-That the chairman Of the commit
tee would not allow Robert LANCE, con.
testant, to appear to file exceptions to GER
tain rebutting testimony.
Second--That witnesses who were charged
with fraud were allowed to come forward
and purge themselves by their own oaths of
such charges, which is contrary to law.
Third-That the evidence Of all colored
men who testified in favor of CLANCY and
Huguet, and who made their mark, is mad
Missile, by reason of said mark being unac.
companied by any attesting witnesses, and
the law provides that two attesting wit.
nesses shall sign in such instances in all
contested election cases.
Fourth-That the certificate Of General
Sykes and Lieutenant MCGEE are inadmis-
sible by reason of not being sworn to ac-
cordlng to law.
Fifth-That the evidence shows clearly to
our minds that immense frauds were perpe-
ttated, and that Victor NJ. Lapge and Rob
ert Lange would have been elected had the
election been conducted fairly aud honestly.
And we feel justified for the foregoing
reasons to recommend that the said Victor
M. Lange and Robert LANCE be allowed to
take their seats in your honorable body as
Representatives of the parish Of East Baton
Rouge.
Respectfully submitted.
