INELIGIBLE.

The fact is becoming apparent that
Federal office holders in several of the
States have run for Presidential cleo
tors. on the Republican ticket. One
in Vermont named Henry A. Solace,
who holds the Office of Postmaster at
Bridgeport, received a majority of the
votes polled in the State, though dis
qualified for the position. Several
others in different States are said to be
disqualified for similar reasons, among
Others j. F. Miller, of California, who
is Government agent at Alaska. or in
some way connected with the seal
fisheries in that icy region. 1t is upne-
cessary, however. to go outside the
State of Nevada to find cases of this
character. r. NJ Daggett of Virginia
City, one of the Presidential electors
on the Republican ticket, in this State,
is Clerk of the United States District
Court of Nevada. He has acted in that
capacity up to the day Of eieCllon. and,
we believe, since that tine. If such is
the fact. r. NJ. Daggett is constitution.
ally disqualified from holding the posi-
ton of Presidential elector; and it will
devolve upon the State Board Of Can
vassers to declare the person receiving
the next highest number of votes,
elected to the position. The DISPOSE
ton manifested by Republicans to mo-
nopolize two or more officers, may in
this Instance, result to their disadvan.
tage. 1t is not improbable that dozen
or more of the Hayes electors are dis
qualified by the Constitution of the .
United States from filling the office.

OUTRAGES IN LOUISIANA.

=. George Foester. editor of the New
Orleans Deutsche Zeitung, says that
on the eve of election the names of over
5000 white voters were stricken from
the registration books. and thousands
OF citizens residing in New Orleans for
years were thus deprived of the cleo.
tive franchise. The Democrats offere 1
to name 1000 blacks. mostly imported
from other States, who had registered
falsely. but the radicals refused to
strike the name of one single negro
from the lists. This is modern Repub.
icanism as illustrated and put into
effect by Kellogg d Co. in Louisiana.
Can anybody doubt for moment that
such men will count the State for
Hayes. whether he is entitled to its
vote or not, unless they are paid their
price for fair canvass OF the vote.

THE PRESIDENTIAL OUTLOOK.

There is nothing new in the Presi-
Dental outlook to-day, as reported by
telegraph. Oregon hangs fire and is
claimed by both parties. Returns
from Florida and Louisiana leave no
doubt of Democratic majority 10 these
States; and the election of Hampton in
South Carolina is conceded. Not
withstanding all this and the fact that
Iilden has 1874 electoral votes, undis
puted, and Hayes ouly 1853. Republican
Journals of the San Francisco Chronicle
type, claim the election of Hayes.
TIlden has within one of majority of
the electoral vote. and q majority of
some 400 600 of the popular vote, and
returns from the three carpet. bag gov
erned States of Florida, South Carolina
and Louisiana, indicate a Democratic
majority in each and all of them, vet
the Republican leaders, with chara. ter

elected. Fortunately the better class
OF Republican journals, such as the
San Francisco Bulletin. discounten.
ance the idea of depriving the popular
candidate. S. j. Tilden, of the Presi-
deucy by the corrupt Returning Boards
of Louisiana and South Carolina.
