WAYS THAT ARE DARK AND TRICKS
THAT AREDAMNABLE.

A New Orleans special to the New
York World gives the following as
specimen of the rascalitics of the
Louisiana Returning Board:
Further analysis of the Returning
Board figures developes degree OF
rascallty which could scarcely have
been even suspected. 1t is found ON
examination that every poll thrown
out had defeated some Republican
candidate. Here in every case of
throwing out poll the effect was to
elect some defeated Republican. Thus,
small poll in Tangipahoa, which was
not contested, was excluded because
(even after robbing Robertson, the
Democratic candidate, of over 5000
votes), it was necessary to throw out
that poll in order TO elect his antagon-
ist. 1t is discovered likewise that the
returns of the Board differ enormous
ly in the various compilations; for in
stance, in order to count i'm the Hayes
electors they threw ont polls giving
1000 Democratic majority, but in or
der to get the State Senate by ma
jority they threw out Is O0ODemocrat-
ic votes. thus counting out for senator's
about G.OOO votes which they had al
lowed for electors. In ORDER to beat
Robertson forCongress they threw out
Democratic votes, about 5000 in ex-
cess of the number thrown out for the
electors, and to restore the aggregate
in the Senate they counted back IN
Leonard's district, which is Republi-
can by several thousand on their show
ing, the number of Democratic voters
which they had thrown out for elec-
tors equal to the number they stole
from Robertson, Some polls have
been counted for Representatives
which were excluded for senators.
Others were thrown ont for Congress
which were excluded for senators.
Others were thrown out for Congress
which were included on the electoral
return. The whole canyass is hotch-
potch of Inconsistency and fraud.
Subp9nas were sent out early this
morning for all the members Of the
Returning Board.

perfectly absurd-it is preposterous.
ave must change the laws of the
land, aud prevent these ignorant pau
pers here from voting and holding
Office. They are a set of unprincipled
and unworthy men, who congregate
in and around our large cities and

Americans. Would you haye an
American citizen stand back. and let
| bloated. red. yisaged, drunken brute Of
an lrishman vote instead of yourself?
See the wretch as he approaches- his
knees knocking and the slobber Of to-
bacco juice running down his jaws;
as he comes you hear him hurrah for
"Dimocracy," and here he comes fresh
from the bogs just one year ago, and
wants to vote-and if he should hap
pen to get knocked down for his inn
pudence. great cry Is made about it
by old demagogues. l say it is right,
let them stand back.

sticking in his horse-tail whiskers,
and his breath smelling of garlic and

hundred yards, and before he can say
anything to the world but "Dimocrat"
he must vote, and that vote counts ~
much as yours or mine. This is out
rageous and abominable.
"Thcse Foreigners that have carried
