jority Of the national Republican commit

for Grant as first choice Many of the

HOSKINS OR POTTER.
DOUBT As TO WHO HAS BEEN ELECTED
LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR.

4 DOUBT AS TO WHO HAS BEEN ELECTED
LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR.
Although weeks have passed since the
election it is not yet really determined who
is to be the next ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
For few days after the election it was
thought that Clarkson n. Potter had beer
chosen, but it was afterwards declared that
the Republican nominee, Mr.. Hoskins,
had been elected by very small majority.
Every since the Democrats have boldly
proclaimed that Mr.. Potter's defeat was
comprised by corrupt means, and in sup
port Of this assertion ask why it took 80
long to have all the returns from Rcpubii-
can counties filed. The bolder members
of the party said that these returns were
kept back in order that they might be
altered in such manner as to effect any
Democratic maioritles that might be given
in other parts of the State. Even after
all the returns had been sent in it was
found that according to them Mr.. Hoskins
was only about so votes ahead Of Mr..
Potter The smallness of the majority
served to make the Democrats doubly sure
that some ''chicancry" had been practice,
and accordingly it was resolved
TO have each return closely examined BE-
fore the formal result OF the election was
declared by the State board of canvassers
An investigation, it is said, satisfied tho,o
who made it that many illegal acts were
perpetrated by election officers in different
parts Of the State. twas discovered that
in some counties ballots had been cast
which, through typographical or other
error, were made TO read sc. NJ. Potter. -
instead Of "Clarkson n. Potter" All such
ballots, together with those having SIM
lar dcIecs, were returned by the canvasscrs
Of some of the counties in which they were
cast as defective" or scattering Tho
facts as detailed above leaked out ycstcr
day, and created great excitement among
politicians.
