The United States Senate Committee Of
Privileges aud Elections, it is said, will in
quire into the facts relating to alleged ineli-
gible electors in North Carolina, Missouri,
and New Jersey-all TILDEN States. These
Republicans are very ready to look into al
legged frauds upon the honest side OF the
contest. They, however, feel uneasy about
murdered TILDES States-States captured
by military force and compelled to vote for
HAYES. The murderers are not certain that
the victims are dead, or that their work was
faithfully performed. So they have been
quite eager for their investigations Of South
Carolina, Florida, and Louisiana. Murder
ers are always troubled by fears that the
dead will rise and plague them.
They have their hands full with their
many outrages.

assigned TIE FIRST RANK by the judges at THE
