to impress upon Congress the necessity of
speedy determination upon this subject.
1t is impossible to estimate the material
loss the country daily sustains from the
existing state of uncertainty. 1t directly
and powerfully tends to unsettle and
paralyze business, to weaken public and
private credit and to create apprehen-
sions in the minds of the people that dis.
turb the peaceful tenor of their ways and
happiness. 1t does far more-it tends to
bring Republican institutions into dis
credit and to create doubts of the success
of our form of government and of the
perpetuity of the Republic. All consid-
erations of interest, or patriotism ami OF
justice unite in demanding of the law
making power q measure that will bring
peace and prosperity to the country and
show that our republican institutions are
equal to any emergency. And in this
connection we cannot refrain from ex-
preston of our satisfaction that your
committee, composed Of equal numbers
of opposing parties, have fortunately been
able to do what has been attempted in
vain heretofore, almost unanimously
agree upon plan considered by them all
to be just, wise and efficient.
We accordingly recommend the pro-
posed act to the patriotic and just judg-
judgment Of Congress:

General Assembly, Will not e1ect the
clear intention of the Legislature, that
the election of County officers should be
at the same time that Representatives in
Congress, State and Circuit officers were
elected, and that these should be elected
on one general ticket. This Act was
special, and was designed for the election
of 1868, but is important as showing that
the Legislature intended that the election
should be by general ticket, and that
county officers should be voted for on
that ticket. The acts Of the 18th Feb
ruary and the lst March, 1870, are to be
construed together, and when SO con-
strued the intention of the Legislature is
clear and all their provisions consistent.
It was that there should be one general
election, on the third Wednesday of Oc-
tober in every second year; that at that
election the electors should vote by one
general ticket, on which should be the
names OF the persons voted Tor as Repre-
sentatives in Congress, and State, Circuit
and County officers, and that the Com
missioners of election should provide one
box for each election precinct, and
labelled Congress, State, Circuit and
County officers. These Statutes were
substantially incorporated in the Revised
Statutes. See R. S., Part 1st Title 2,
Chaps. 8 and TO- Under them the cleo
ton of 1872 was held on the third We'd
nesday OF October. That being the year of
the Presidential election, another election
was held on the first Tuesday after the
first Monday in November for Presiden-
tial Electors, according to the Federal
Constitution. These two elections fol-
lowing so closely upon each other were
