TTMrLr NO HELr.

KELLOGG. IE SHOWN ELECTED. Can NOT EE

! Now. gentlemen, dismiss the disagree.
! able subject. / repeat that in what have
said with regard to the late election here.
and respecting the rights of these contest
! ing Governors. am speaking only in re
/! gard 20 the ease as it was presented. 1t

en-: If you Kellogg men can show. as You
| tel. me YOU can. that on the votes actually
cas-. Ke.iog. had an unauestioned aiority,
| and that the returns OF the election have
beer fabricated and forged, then the fact
! That Kellogg obtained possession OF his office
! IL g. most eccentric way vii. not show
that lie ought to be displaced. Let NE say
to YOU McEnery men that if you can show
:ha: McEEery was fairly elected, that the
! impression produced upon the committee in
, re sacti 20 the manipulation of the election
ma. no foundation. and that the election
was fair one. and that McEnery received
! a majority Of votes. there is not Repub-
| iicar il Congress who would not at once
declare that McEnery ought to have his
rights AID he admitted to tine gubernatoIiai
.ttice. This the Senate could 60 Dy simply

that McEneiy vas elected but elected only :
by trald. then l shall certainly advocate
