AN ISFAMoUs nOsUMEsr.

The vote Of some 100000 Democrats
in Louisiana was thrown out on fraud.
uIent and illegal papers, The certld'
Gates gwen to the Hayes electors were
issued On this fraudulent canvass. The
papers upon which the right to the Of
ice of President was decided were
forged, and the forgery was certified to
by Governor (now Senator) Kellogg,
with guilty knowledge of the crime. 1t
is conceded that if the forgery had been
known at the time the title was decided
the forged papers would have been re-
jected. Thus, upon superstructure Of
fraud and forgery, reared by known
scoundrels, rests the title of Hayes to
the Presidency. Is he not contented
with bis elevation to the top of this
pinnacle of crime2 If so. it will remain
forever monument to his own infamy.
