Il Signdl fultIre.
Columbia, Dec. 1S.-Thes House in
~vestigating committee has concluded
its efforts to discover a flaw in the pre-
cinct returns which should change the
electoral vote as declared by the state
board of canvassers. They utterly fail
ed to accomplish anything in that line
of investigation although the witnesses
thus far examined were called in the
interests of the Democrats. They have
proven enough, however, to open the
door for a legitimate and fair increase
of the Republican majority for both the
electoral and state tickets.
The Democrats on the committees,
just before the adjournment Saturday
night, had the assurance to propose
that no further testimony be taken
here, but that the committee divide
into three subcommittee, and 80 to
different points of the state fishing for
evidence. The object of this was two
fold-first, to permit the introduction
by the Republicans of witnesses already
here, whose testimony would increase
the Republican majority; second, to try
and work up evidence to offset the
proofs which they know are to be
brought before the Senate committee
touching the intimidation, violence and
murder practiced by rifle clubs during
the presidential campaign. In other
words the House committee, completely
foiled in the sinister purpose for which
they came here, are nov to be used as
a foil to the investigation Of the Senate
committee

RandaH's Ruling.

RdnddtPS hutiilg.
Washington, Dec. 19.-It is very
doubtful whether Speaker Randall is
sustained in his position that the 22d
joint rule is still in force, eve by mem
bers of his W party in the House.
Many Democratic leaders agree with
the Republicans that any rule which re-
Quires the consent of both houses for
its passage, becomes null when the
consent of mi house is withdrawn.
Even if this be not so, they see the alb
surdity of insisting on the validity of q
rule which there is no power to enforce
on the Senate.
The Ineligible Electors.
The Senate committee on privileges
and elections to-day examined Benja-
min Williams, the alleged ineligible
elector from New Jersey, who testified
that he never received any money
through the office he held and had no
idea that he vas ineligible until he had
been chosen as an elector. He sent his
resignation to Governor Biddle asssoon
as the question of ineligibility was
raised.
Tomorrow the committee will take
testimony in the case of Frost, the al
legged ineligible elector of Missouri.
Miscellaneous Matters.
Hurd has about completed the mi
nority judiciary report, taking grounds
J against the admission of Colorado.
Edmunds will doubtless be appointed
a member of the Senate committee Of
seven, and an attempt is making tt
make Alex. II. Stephens chairman O
the House committee.
Battery, G., I'd Artillery, recently OF

pected by next Friday.

New Orleans, Dec. 1S.-Several mer-

rived here yesterday. They confirm
the news Of the capture Of Lerdo, the
death of Escobedo and the capture of
the city of Elepico by Gen. .Diaz. 1g-
lesias writing from Leon, ordered Diaz
to hold the City of Mexico and proclaim
the presidency of Iglesias, which Diaz
declined to do unless he could name
four members of the cabinet. This was
refused by Iglesias, when Diaz pro-
claimed himself provisional president,
and the revolution now continues be-
tween the rival presidents, who are pre-
pairing for q new struggle.

To the Editor of the Ledger:
DEAR SIR: Enclosed you will find s.
for subscription to the daily LEDGER;
place the same TO my credit, and oblige
me. We have had abundant rains in
the past two weeks. Crops are in fine
condition, in fact in better fix than any
time since the war. In politics the
county is extremely quiet-no sort Of
excitement-there will be none, and the
policy is to hold no conventions and not
to ring up a strict party man. Bread
and meat is more substantial than glory,
and the object is to keep the working
classes in the field until November.
Yours truly, etc.
