Stephens, of Georgia, on the Report of the Kansas Investigating Committee, in the Case of Reeder Against Whitfield It', then, these fif't or sixty acknowledged ille gal votes be deducted from those 'cast for the Abo lition ticket, it would leave a majority for the candidates on the other side, of the actual res idents in February, even in Lawrence, the great rendezv o'us of New England emigrants, and with out any reference to the emigration froni the South after the census was taken. There 1s no evidence, by any witness sworn, that any man, even in Lawrence, was prevented from voting by force, violence, or intimidation. Some witnesses swear that they did not vote because of the crowd; but not one sivears that he could not have voted if he had wanted to, in consequence of any violence, force, or threat, and there was no crowd about the polls 1n the afterpart of the day. Therefore, in this first district, the testimony in connection with the census does not indicate that, if the election had been left to' the actual residents alone, the F1ee Soil ticket would have been elected.
