Washington special says: The Democrats
are pleased over the appointment OF
Hoar az one OF the Electoral Compro-
mice Commissioners. They regard him
az the nearest to q non.partisan member
that can be found on the Republican
side. Republicans are not pleased with
his selection; but several gentlemen who
have talked with Hoar to-day insist that
he understands the case at ISSUE perfect
ly, and that he is as firm az o rock in the
conviction that Hayes was fairly elected,
and that he can not be robbed Of the
Presidency by any legal technicality in
the Oregon case le

Washington special says: The Republi-
cans have secured the services Of Evarts
and Stanley Matthews, and will probably
have another as counsel before the Elec-
toral Commission. The Democrats will
have Jerry Black, Carpenter, of Wiscon-
sin, and Richard T. Merrick, of WASH

NEW York, Jan. 90 Tho Times
Washington special says: The Democrats
in the House object to Garflald's selec-
ton by the Republicans % o member OF
the Electoral Commission because he
went to New Orleans, and 10 there fore
biased. The Republicans reply that the
purpose of the bill was to make certain
the appointment Of five Democrats who
would never waver on any question af-
fecting the election of Tilden, and five
Republicans who have perfect faith In
the rightful and legal choice of Hayes.
This would throw the responsibility of
deciding legal questions upon the JUS
tees of the Supreme Court, where il 10
placed by the theory of the bill. The
Democrats in the House will make choice
OF their own members Of the com omission
tomorrow. II they object to Garfield,
they should not select Hewitt, Field,
Payne, Proctor Knott, Tucker or Lamar,
or indeed any Of their members that ono
can think of. for they are all committed.
Indeed, among Democrats In the Senate,
there are objections to Bayard, and there
will be contest against him, because he
is not partisan enough. and Thurman ia
sure to be one of those chosen. There
may be a controversy about Conkling,
though it is not supposed he will be pre-
scented Oh a candidate. The troubles of
forming commission are not yet over,
and may prove to be serious, az there 10
some fear that the four Justices will not
be able to agree upon selection of the
fifth.
