MISREPRESENTATION.

| The Statesman is so given to misrepresenta
ton that no one ever expects to find the trutl
in its columns. In referring to an article pub
lished in the WORLD, last week, upon the lega
tender decision recently rendered by the Su
preme Court, we are accused of inconsistency
and, as proof of it, cited to an article in for
mer issue wherein we claimed that the de-
cision of the same Court in the case of Buff
6ngton VS.. Day sustained the Democratic doc.
trine of estate Rights" We are accused OF
"fopping" around without looking over our
files, &c, and the Statesman AYERS that but a
few weeks ago we Landed the Supreme Court
to the skies and endorsed the Judges as wise
and impartial We have done nothing of the
kind We simply stated, in our issue of April
9th, the points decided by the Supreme Court
in thecase referred to, and instanced it as an
endorsement, by the highest judicial tribunal in
the land, of the Democratic doctrine of State
Sovereignty" and State Rights, which the Rad
icals deem dead issues and political heresies
We did not express "the utmost confidence in
their judicial integrity" as claimed by our
neighbor, when referring to the Judges, nor
did we speak of them as "wise and impartial"
We cited the decision, and, as Democrat, of
course we endorsed it, and we believed that
the decision was entitled to greater weight,
from the fact of its being concurred in by all
the Judges except Bradley, one of Grants po-
litical appointees who, it is admitted even by
the Radical press, was elevated to the Supreme
Bench, in company with Strong, for the very
purpose of reoPening the legal tender question,
which had been once decided, and of bringing
about n reversal of the former judgment of
,he Court. That craftsmanship was plainly dis
played in the recent action of those Judges
n majority of the Court, in re-
7ersing the former decision of the same tribu-
lal on the legal tender question, is evident to
my one except bigoted fanatic. Leading
Radical journals throughout the country con-
Tenn the action of the Court, and regard it |
lot only as bad precedent but as decision
n which the people, irrespective of party, can
AVE but little confidence as to its correctness
Our astute cotemporary attempts to be face
ious over our illegal criticisms" as he calls
hem: We have the satisfaction of knowing
hat our positions have, thus far been in accord
'ith the decisions of the Supreme Court of
IDAHO as well as of the United States, with the
RECEPTION of the legal tender matter; while

linded by personal motives, is invariably blum.

On investigating the vote of the Fourth Ward
of New Haven they have discovered that Jew
ell has been credited with one hundred more
votes according to the official returns than he
received at the election. This would indicate
that ballot-box stuffing and falsfying election

common practice with Radical election officers

THE ALLY OF THIEVES.

/
Whenever Democratic journal uses little
harsh language in condemning the iniqultles OF
Radical legislation, or calls Grant and his un-
principled aiders and abettors by their right
names it is considered in bad taste, not only
by members of the party OF great moral ideas,
but by so-called Conservatives. who are setting
astraddle of the fence, ready to drop into the
ranks of either party which promises to come
| into the ascendancy. Democratic Journals do
not monopolize all the abuse of the Admins
tration, for we have observed, of date, papers
of the "loyal" persuasion INDUCING in unmeas-
ured abuse of Mr. Grant and the leaders of
the dominant party The New York Evening
Post, one of the ablest Radical papers in the
country, edited by the veteran William Cullen
Bryant, in late review of the situation of af-
fairs in South Carolina. SCOTS ut the idea that
the Southern people are responsible for any OF
the evils which afilict that section of our coun-
try, and lays the blame where it actually be-
longs-at the doors of the carpet-baggers and
Carolina, that paper says:
Unfortunately the President, in the South Carolina
case will act on the side of the ring whose handi
work has been exhibited above. The Federal Gov
eminent is to be used under the Ku klux bi not to
redeem South Carolina from its robbers but 10 fasten
upon the tax payers the rule of the scamps who are
pundering it. The Federal power viii appear in the
Southern States under this Ku Klux bill as the ally
of thieves the protector of swinders the guardian
of their plumber.
Other leading Radical journals denounce the
so-called Kuklux bill as unconstitutional, un-
called for, and as measure calculated to es.
TRANCE from their party allegiance and afiilia-
ton large portion of the honest, thinking men
who have heretofore acted with the Republican
party.
1t is becoming pretty generally believed by a
large and respectable element in the Radical
party that the bill is an outrage without prece- |
dent, and was passed as party measure, at
the dictatiOn of Grant, in order 10 secure the |
reelection of the present occupant of the /
White House. That such an extreme meas
Ire, ostensibly for the protection of loyal men,
$ not warranted by the facts, is becoming APP
parent to all. The people are firing of party
which is controlled by a lot of corrupt and un-
'rincpled demagogues, and will demand the
adoption of policy of amnesty and peace, or
Use change OF rulers The day of bayonet
ule in America is about over. The people
ave had enough of it. They want little
wholesome legislation in the interests of the
White race, and for the good of the country,
nd little less of it in behalf of the negro.
he success of the Democratic party will pro-
nce such a change, and the people are fast
ecoming convinced that in the success of the
Democracy alone depends the hope of the per-
etuation OF republican institutions in America
