viaora Of Elections to guard against
fraudulent votes. They say that if the
repeal can be passed this session of
Congress by tacking it on to an appro-
alton bill it will add at least ten thous-
and to the Democratic majority in that

will then be able to stuff the ballot box

Somerset County Thoroughly
Aroused.

The great Indignation meeting held last
night in your city, probably expressed the
feeling of all fair-minded men all over the
State. No time during the late rebellion
was there an expression of such intense in
tense Indignation in Somerset county as there
is now occasioned by the fagitious action of
Gov. Garcelon and his Council in reversing
the will of the people as declared at the polls
last September The people of Skowhegan
whose choice of representative was so en-
phatically made known by their votes, and so
properly set forth in the returns to the Sec
rotary of State are no more excited by the
outrageous action of the canvassng board in
counting out their representative and dis
franchising them without any show of law or
justice, than are the republicans all over the
county; nor are the republicans alone in de-
noucing this great wrong. The feeling is
that there must be some way devised where
by the wicked intent and atrocious action OF
