-Four years ago, during the counting
of the electoral votes, Mr.. Garfield Of
fsred the following resolution:
6 RESOLVED, That in the Judgment
of this House, none Of the returns re-
ported by the Tellers as the Electoral
vote of the State of Louisiana should
be counted"
On The same day the Senate adopted
the following resolution:
I" RESOLVED, That all objections pre-
sented having been considered no
electoral vote purporting to be that of
the State of Louisiana be counted"
For these resolutions Messrs. Gar
field, Hoar, Morton, Edmunds, and
present members of
the Joint Commission, voted in their
respective Houses of Congress They
then declared the right of Congress
to so behind the certificates of the
Governor and the action of the RI
turning Board, even to throw out alto
gether the vote Of the State and debar
her people wholly of any participation
in the choice of President. They then
declared that Congress had the right
TO go behind the returns, and this
was clothed with all the
powers that Congress possessed i'm the
matter, yet they declare that the lying
certificate of the Governor is q finality,
and that they have no constitutional
right to go behind it.. Did they COM
nit perjury in 1878, or are they false TO
heir trust and to the people now?

In the House on Tuesday the report
OF the Commission on counting the
Electoral vote OF Louisiana was disa-
greed to by a vote of 112 to 80. Seeyle
and Pierce, Republicans, OF Massachu-
sets, voting with the Democrats
against confirming the report.
The Senate by strictly party vote
confirmed the report.
At half-past one O'Clock in the after
noon the two houses met in Joint Con-
vention and proceeded with the count
till Michigan was reached, when Mr..
Tucker objected to the count on the
ground that one of the electors was
Ineligible, being United States Com
missioner, when the Senate withdrew.
The objections were considered and
overruled, but few voting to sustain
them in either house.
The count continued till Nevada
was reached when objections were
made 10 counting the vote OF an elec-
tor on the ground that he was Clerk
of the u. S. Circuit Court aud, there
fore, ineligible. After the two houses
separated, the Senate voted not to sus-
tain the objections, and the two houses
took q recess till 10 o'clock Wednes-
day morning. -t 1l.~f,ss 9sl r,r

and by tramrliag under foot the pop
ular will-has, practically, wrought
out its infamous verdict. The Elect
oral Commission in the case of the
Electoral vote OF Louisiana decided,
by the chronic vote of eight to seven
that the Constitution Of the United
States, which they were sworn 10 obey,
should not even be read iu their pres
ence in comparison with the facts TO
which they were sworn TO apply it,.
Eight Commissioners that had taken a
solemn oath 10 ascertain who had re-
ceived the Electoral votes of certain
States, "agreeably TO the Constitution
and the laws, refused TO listen TO any
evidence W hich would enable them so
to ascertain in accordance with their
Oaths. The settled purpose of the oc-
tagonal perjurer, surnancd Com
mission, being to count in Hayes and
Wheeler. oefhs or no Oalbs, Constitu-

Renewed Indian Outrages

DEADwooD, ID. r., February b.
During last week number of re-
ports of Indian deprelations have been
coming in from small towns adjacent
here. To-day these rumors assumed
an alarming aspect, and substantiated
news of simultaneous attacks in differ
ent directions, leads to the belief that
the Indians are surrounding this vi
cinity. Nolens' large cattle train was
captured entire near Bear Butte, yes
terday. F'letcher's herd of mules was
also captured in the same vicinity
The Montana rancho, a short distance
from here, was attacked about the same
time, the Indians capturing all the
stock. WIyginton's herd OF horses,
which was hear Crook City. We're all
captured, Wigeinto wounded, and
his assistant killed. Considerable stock
in the vicinity of Spearfish was also
run off.

An Imrrac,Icab,e condition.


Il The Electoral Commission by its
decision IN the Florida case, holds that
State, the vote OF which has been
falsiiied, and which has itself been
falsely personated al u meeting OF the
Electoral College, just as Harvey Bur-
dell was at his fictitious marriage with
Mrs Cunningham with an eye to his
prOximaie murder). may redress the
wrong, provided il does 30 before the
elec Ors deposit their votes for trans
mission ION the first Wednesday in
Decenber,' to he counted on the l4th
OF February next ensuing.
Now, nothing can better illustrate
how this theory keeps the word of
promise 10 the ear aud breaks it To the
hope than the facts in the Florida case.
The canvass, false and fraudulent. was
Completed about 3 O'Clock in the morn
ing of December q. The electors met
al - :0j on that day. This is the in
terval-an interval of nine hours
which the Electoral Commission pre-
scribes, within which the deirauded
State must institute, prosecute aud
consummafe IFS measures of relief and
redress The two months and a half
before the votes are TO be counted, on
which occasion 1t must be decided
whether they are valid or not, are
made Il useless waste of time for the
purpose of rectifying wrong and de-
Ieating fraud! No proof is to be adj
mitted, however perfect in character
or absolute and indisputable in effect,
if that proof is not produced "within
nine hours" which expire two months
and half before the sealed packages
OF votes are opened, or the counting
tribunal assemblies which must finally
decide whether the votes are or are
not to be counted.
And yet grave and reverend judges
of the highest tribunal make long
speeches and read long written argu-
ments TO support such preposterous
proposition as this. - New York
