ELECTIONS ~ TEOY.

IF the citizens Of Troy have read the testi-
mony which has been presented in the Rogers
Collins contested election case their local pride
must have stuff tered a compound fracture. For
Troy, as revealed in thi, testimony, is prey 10
the most dcmoralzidg Influences. She doe,
not believe in. or. at all events. does not care
for. the republican system. She turns the APP
peal 10 the ballot-boX into broad farce. She
suffers government Of Democratic bosses to
take the place Of government Of the people.
In her political vocabulary there are no such
words as Justice and fair play This is not an
cXtrayagant Statcmcnt-wc wish for TrOyS
sake that it was. 4, it stands, il is justified hy
the evidence which mimpeachcd witnesses have
given under oath in Che case in question.
What does the testimony show? 1t shows
that a gang Of IcpcatcrS on the last general
election day went from poll to poll in Troy
ana voted * often aS they pleased, or, at all
events, voted frequently. 1t shows that Re
publican inspectors and watchers challenged
the votes Of these reporters in vain, Demo
cratic inspectors declining to drive them away
from the balot-boX and Democratic policemen
declining to arrest them. IT shows that a
large number of persons Swore in their votes
after the names which they gave had already
been voted upon and after they themselves had
once voted. II shows that in the Seventh Ward
no fewer than A. names were voted uUOn two
or three times II shows that "Whcn the Re
uuLlican inspectors refused the fraudulent votes
and nut their hands over the balot-boXcS the
Democratic inspectors pushed their hand, away
and admitted the vOtc>.' II shows that when
a Republican inspector cndcayorcd to shut out
a repeator's vote by questioning him touching
his qualifications, the Democratic inspectors
nterfercd.
We submit that these facts warrant the
Indictment which we have drawn against Troy.
The last election there was brazen and out
rageous fraud The heelers of Edward Murphy,
the chairman of the Democratic Committee,
acting presumably under his orders, deter
mined that there should not be an honest count
of honest votes. to the end tina; General Rogers,
the Republican candidate for the Senate should
at all hazards be defeated. 1t will not do for
the friends OF Mr. Murphy to protest that he
knew nothing about the frauds. Mr.. Murphy
is one OF the ShrcwdcSt OF politicians and can
be depended upon TO keep a close watch upon
his own city upon Election Day. Hence more
than any one man he is to be held responsible
for the dsgraceful state of things which the
Probe vi the Senate Committee has brought to

The officials of the Finance Department, hay
ing at last found out that there is a question
at least as to whether the elevated railroad com
pancS have been paying enough into the city
treasury, propose to press the matter to an
issue. They viii first examine the Manhattan
CompanyS books, and then proceed to deter
mine the meaning of the term "net earnings Z"
as used in the charters Of the original com
ranies This will probably lead to prolonged
litigation.
The hearing on the SaXton Ballot Reform
bill before the Assembly judiciary Committee
yesterday was significant because one of the
amendments suggested was pronounced good
one by Mr.. SaXton and promptly accepted by
him. The amendment was that in this city
and Brooklyn nominations by petition should
require at least 800 signatures, instead OF 80,
as at first proposed throughout the State. 1t
was wisely pointed out that if so signatures
could secure nomination and place on the
official ballot, the ballot mik soon come to be
of unwieldy and even impossible dimensions.
The 5OO-limit will obviate all difficulty.
