Republican Committee Report.
New York, Nov. 6-The following ad-
dress has just been Issued:
Headquarters Republican National
Committee, New York City, Nov 6-The
republican national committee rejolcea
that thu returns now received warrant il
in announcing the triumphant election
OF Blaine and Logan. The republicans
have carried every northern state except
New Jersey and Connections. Virgins
seems also to have given . majority fol
the republican cause and ticket, and
there is a strong probability that West
Virginia has also, while other states are
still in doubt. The northern states alope'
however, give to Blaine aud Logan
225 electoral votes, and insure their cleo.
tion. In New York attempts to tampel
with the returns have already been de-
tected. The actual vote cast in New
York City. Kings county, and 1852
other election precincts give at the ut
most only l4s plurality to Cleveland
while l6s precincts not yet heard from
gave 2,l7l plurality to Garfield. There
is therefore NJ ground for doubt that
the honest vote Of the state has been
given to the republican candidates.
Though the defeated candidate for the
presidency, is at the head of the election
machinery of the state demo-
cratic party, which has notoriously
been the party of fraud in elec.
tions for years, it will not be permitted
to thwart the will Of the people. The
national republican committee calls on
the chairmen aud individual members OF
all county committees to take prompt
and most stringent means to protect the
of the ballot. The republican
have been honestly elected
beyond question, and any attempt to
cheat the people and to defeat their will
thus expressed at the polls, must be
sternly exposed and resisted by every
law respecting citizen.
