Election Outrages.

Senator Hoar and the sub committee OF
the Committee on Privileges and Elections
have gone South to investigate the cleo
ton outrages committed in Mississippi
last November. They will begin their in
vestigaiion next Friday, holding their ses-
sion at New Orleans. which is about $50
miles from Copiah. the scene of the
Matthews murder. II il understood that
the reason for selecting New Orleans as
the place for holding the investigation in
stead of Copiah. was because the people
Of the latter place would not dare to testify
there lest il they told the truth they might
meet tate similar to that OF Matthews.
Perhaps New Orleans may be better
place than Copiah. but it must have i'm
proved within few years II it is. The
truth Is. there are few places IN the South
at the present time where a iair investiga-
ton into election outrages IL possible.
The fear Of violence stiles the voice of
honesty. The bull-dozer is powerful in
the community. The blood of such
martyrs as Matthews appeals to Southern
ears tor justice in vain. Still the facts OF
the murder at Copiah have been so gen.
orally published that the committee of in
vestigation can scarcely fail to ascertain
the facts and reach reliable conclusions.
