County, - separately certified by tho only oflcor who cottld = muko (t certificate of that vote, the , County Auditor, That abstract shows that 3tr. Washburn received G38 votes and Donnelly 137, und two senttering. This proves tho vote Independently of tho alleged defestive return, and there [s no attempt anywhero In the record to disprove it; but Donnelly, uside from the ad- nifasion alenarly contained {n tho notico of his brief, ndmits the voto wns cast as stated. Tha only thing he does say Js that Mr. Washburn ought to have proved ft, and should not have relied upon bis (Donnelly's) proving it, Done nelly says: “Had ho proved this vote, 1 was prepared to prove the grossest irreyuluritics in THE CONDUCT OF TI ELECTION inthat county. Mis notice of cunteat nowhere set forth, howover, that there were any Irregu- lnrities In this vote. ‘Tho Committee throw out 100 yotes in Tamarnok Preelnut, 740 in ‘Two River Preeinet, 213 In Crookston Precinct, and 40 votes In Kitson Preeinet.

The returned vote” for Donnelly fs 17.020. Tho Comnilttca deducts for nuinbered ballots, G2; for Isantl County (that county being thrown out), 137; ono vote for Tamarack Preoinet, ono from Two-Klver Pre- oluct, 45 in Crookston Precinct, and 195 from Kitgon, This make #41 to be dedueted FROM DONNELLY'S RETUUNED VOTE, leaving him 17,004, to which thoy ndd 601 votes for Stenrns and Morrison Countics, not returned, making a total of 17,049, and gives hin amajonty of 165 over Washburn . The minority of tha Committco claim that the statute of Minnesota—which rpiicy ony to the Cities of Sinuorpolis oud St. Paul—requiring: ballots to bo nuinbered is constitutional, Ithax never been held othorwiso, except by tho Judge of ni Inferior court of record of that State, The Conetitution of tho Stato of Minnesota docs not prohibit, in terms, legislation on tho subject of the manner of counting votes, hut only provides that a vote in that State shail he by ballot. Sov- eral of the States of the Union require baliota to bo nutnbered,—-nimong the number Pennmsl- yunin, Before the War Virginian voted viva yore, and Kentucky yotes fin that way now, There is no question a8 to the constitutionallty of such voting, Dut to assume THAT A LAW 18 UNCONSTITUTIONAL, under the Constitution of Minnesota, would not nfect it under tho Constitution of the United States. This question arising under the Constl- tution is one which hns been decided atrendy by ® previous Congress, Some years ago a case caine up which is known ns fhe Michigan ense, During the War tho‘ Leplelaturo of Michiscun issed n Inw authorizing soldiors to vote, Tho Eonstiution of that state provides thut no person shall bo puthorized to. voto who shall not proviousl yhuve revided ten days ingomo part of lt. Tho Legislature nuthorized tho soldiers: to vote wherever they might bo. ‘The Supremo Court flooldsa this Inw was Hncon- stltutional eo fur us ft applied to the election of nny ollicer of tho State of Michtian, ‘but the question camo up before Congress, thd there it wna held that while the law might be unconsti- tutional so fnr us itapplied to State ofiices, gut itavns unconstitutional inno sense In violntion of the Constitution of the United States, which Constitution alone conferred pen tho Legisii- ture the right and power to muke a luw regulat ing tho election of Representatives to Congress, TNE EXODUS. OAUGHT A TAUTAL, Special Dispatch to ‘The Chteaga Tribune, Wasuixaton, D.C, Feb. 18—Tho Democrats feom determined not to allow Itepublican it- nesses to got summoned before tho Exodus Com- mittee, but to-day thoy caught a Tartar In one of tholr own witnesses, Iudger, son of ex-Bon- ator Budger, of North Carolinn. Ho was sum- moned by the Demoernts and 1s opposed te the exodus, During his examination he made some romarks as to Ku-Klux outrages in North Caro- Ina, which led Senator Windom, who ornss- examined him, to question bim yery closely on that subject, Tho witnoas sufd that tho negroes dil not hnyve equal justice in tho courts, ant that thoy wero discriminated against, When asked about tho Ku-Klux outrages, he suld that he was appointed by tho Government a fow yenrs ayo to Investigate thoin, and he knew all about thom. Ile sntd there wore hundreds of cusos of whipping, shooting, and murders of evory kind. Tho wit- neas furthor sald that THERK WERE THREE ORGANIZATIONS fu tha State,—tho White Brotharhoad, tho Con- atitutionsl Union Guard, and tho Invisible Em- pire, One was politienl, to carry the Btute for tho Democrata; anothor had for tts objoct to reinstate the Coufederacy,—to restore tho Lost Causo; ant tho think was ono which was organized for tha purpose of committing murdor, Tho firat two wero not dangurous, he said, but tho last was, Ifmnogro,as he oxpreased it, “got too big for his breeches," or a Republican was too active, this Ordor would decree hig death in the county whero he Ifvod, and would thon send to some other county, to a Iike organization, who would furnish tho executioner to commit tho murder. As to the discrimination in the courts, tho witness said that if negrocs wore arrested for larecny thoy were always convicted much moro cortainly than a white man, In ordor to make himeelf more plainly understood on this point, ho gave ‘TI: FOLLOWING ILLUBTHATION: Acolorod woman was at work in 1 barn huske ing corn. Bho was singling, and making a good deal of noise. Tho white man in churgo of the farm came along and told her to make tess nolaa and sho would got ulong fastor with hor work. She anawered back rather hnpudently for a ne- gro, Tho man then replied with insulting Inne guage, and tho woman retorted in the samo fashion, Theroupon ho seized a bludgeon and beat bor over tho shouldors with it until: tho stick dropped from his hands, Ho then took his pletol and hammered hor over the head with it, tho woman all the tho defending herself os best sho could by scratching him. They wore ‘both arreatod, and tho colored woman was con vioted and tho whito man acquitted, When questioned as to tho elections in North Carolina, Hadger auld that the colored mon wore swindled out of their votes. For Instunco, ho satd that when Vanoo was elected bo gut 27,000 more votca than thoro wero Democrats in tho Stato, BYPIIAX'S BILLY BENSATION, To the Western Associated Press, Wasntnartoy, 2, 0, Fob, 18.—The Sonate Exo- dus Committeo to-day reaumed the examination ot witnesses.

Spectal Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune Wasiinaton, D, C., Fob. 18—Mr. Ackten had his day in the House to-day, and It wasn day of which the State of Loulalana will bardly be proud. Mr. Acklen himeclf, often as be bas nae aertced bis superiority to the newspnpers, will hardly soon nguln eny that thelr charges nro as “false as thoy are foul." At all events, Mr. Ackien’s collengues to-day, without exception, were undoubtedly of the opinion that not only ‘wns uvery statement made. In the nowspnpers relative to Acklen’s misconduct in emuggling a report Into the House truc, but that there was much cven that had not been told. Tho report of the Foreign Affairs Committee has already been foreshadowed, It’ found, brictlys that the chargu was true; that Mr. Acklen, who was not ainember of the Committee, had re- ported to tho House, as coming from tho Com- mittee, a doctment designated as 0 report of that Comimittes In favor of a cuse to which tho Committee was in fact opposed, The Committco loft the ense there, saying in substance to the House that tho resolution did not constitute the Forolgn Affairs Committee tho keeper of tho morals of tho Houso or ompower it to ANQUIE INTO THE MOTIVES ofMr. Acklon. As one of the mombors of tho Committes afterwards said in private: “Tho question of motive or intent fs, nt best, epeculn- ‘ye Jf your horso Is stolen, and tha person wh stole it ndmits tho thoft, It is notnimatter gurd to its proceedings, and, of course, that charge was n Very grave one. The chargu alsa affected the Committeo on Forvign Affairs, In ono senso that Committee was injured by it, and in an especial sengy one of its inembers wis tho injured party. On the ather hand, the necessary witneases were, tirst, tho member of tho Com- mittee on Foreign Aifairs (King) whose 1unmo was concerned in Ue paper presented by Acklon, and, sccondly, all the members of that Commit- tee, who could state the original fucts better than anybady else, ‘That Committee had re- ported the facts, but hud sald nothing whatever about the question of motive, which question was, of course, essential.
