truths in my remarks, or there
would not have been 50 much SPUR
ming upon his part; he as the spokes-
man for his party think the demo
cratic party doesn't need the help Of
any more than they have at hand.
He could not have drawn this con
clusion from the result OF the recent
national elections, nor from our
more recent county elections, the
poor dude will find before another

entire electoral was given of the Presidential
candidates and never divided A many other voters
may be lahOring under the dcuson VIII You kindly
furnish an explanation In your columns Very Truly
yours. EN-.

lAnother reading of the table he refers 10 will
show our correspondent that he has made
blunder. We gave the electoral vote each State is
now entitled to and also the electoral vote AZ cast
in 1850 In only one State-nOt several was
an electoral vote divided. In 1850 California gave
one vote for Garfield and five for Hancock In that
year the highest vote for candidate on the Reprb-
lican electoral ticket was sO.37s. Five Democratic
candidates received votes ranging from s0,3Ss to
sO.f17 but one received only 1851. Five Demo
Gratis and one Republican. therefore were elected.
and the electoral vote of the State east accord
mRlv. We did not suppose any Of our readers re-
Quired to lac informed that the electoral vote of
state may he divided. The Federal law requires
that the electors of President and Vice-Presdent
shall be appointed, in each state, on the Tuesday
next after tine first Monday in November. in every
fourth year succeeding every election of President
and Vice President" The manner of their appoint
ment is left 10 the several States. aud it Is only
