REPORT OF THE CONGRESSION-
AL COMMITTEE ON LOUISIANA
MATTERS.
TIE BLAME THROWN ON THE KELLOGG
USURPERS.
The Registration Board Itself at
Fault.

Below we give Extracts from the
Report which is signed by two Re-
pubIicans and one Democrat.
You're committee are constrained
to declare that the action of the Re
turning Board, in rejecting these
returns in the parish OF Rapides, and
giving the seats for that parish 10
the Republican candidates, was ar
biirary, unfair and without warrant
of law. 1T the committee were to
70 behind the papers before the
Board, and consider the alleged
charge of intimidation upon the
proofs before the committee their
finding would necessarily be the
same.
1t was asserted in Gov. Wells af:
fi1avit that TIE McEnery Officials
had u,urped the offices of the parish
and thereby intimidatcd voters. I'm.
mediatcly after the 14th Of Scptem
Der, when the Kellogg authorities
in New Orleans were put out by the
Penn authorities, certain changes
took place in some of the parishes
When the news from New Orleans
reached these parishes, the NcEn
cry officials demanded their places
of the Kellogg officials, and they
were ut once given up.
When the federal government in.
tcrfercd, and unseated the Meme
ry authorities, the Kellogg official.
demanded and received back theil
places, but in Rapides some tim,
seems to have elapsed before tn.
Kellogg officials took the place.
back. Indeed, the McEncry regis
ter of deeds was still acting as sucl
when your committee was in New
Orleans, the Kellogg register never
having come to reclaim the place
which was said 10 be worth nothing
now in Rapidcs.
The Kellogg clerk was Mr.. Well.
son. Having yielded his place t,
the McEnery competitor in Septem
Der, he does not appear to have re
claimed 1t. and he was accordingl,
sent for after the election to com,
from his residence, some miles dis
,aut, to sign the returns of the cleo
ton, viii IN he did. Your cOmmitte,
are ut II loss TO sec, in their action
any intimidation OF Mr.. Wclls-stii
less of the electors of the parish.
1t so happened that the parish wa
taken as a sample parish OF intinida
ton; many witnesses from boti
parties were examined with refer
ence to it. They show beyond qnes
ton that there was full, free, tail
and peaceaJle elect on and req,strdtio,
there. There vas no ertdence Of ana
thfin'iddfiGn of voters practiced OF
the day of the election, although i
was asserted that intimidation Of
colorrd men before the election hao
been effected by threats of refusal
TO employ them, or to discharge
them if they voted the Republican
ticket; no evidence either of dis
charge or refusal to employ was
produced.
Certain witnesses, themselves every
one office holders, testified general
ly to such action, but hardly any
one was able to specify a single in
stance in which he had heard ana
employee so Threatened or discharged
or knew of any employee being ST
threatened or di enlarged. Not d
single cototed man throughout the
entire parish WIS produced to test
ty either TO shch q threat or to til,
execution Of such Il purpose, either
before or after the election.
