The provision of the compromise which
the Louisiana conservatives have violated is
this: "That the House of Representatives
as to its members as constituted under the
award of Messrs. George F. Hoar, W. A.
Wheeler, w. P. Frye, Samuel F. Marshall,
Phelps, shall remain without change ercept
BIZ the resignation or death of its members,
until a neao general election" The compro-
mise was framed by aid of the conservatives,
and they pledged themselves to support each
and every provision of it. The names of the
four Democrats whom the House has seated
are not to be found in the award of the COM
mittee. The PRESS justifies no illegal action
OF the Louisiana factions. 1t only asks that
the conservatives shall honorably abide by
the compromise which they assisted in franz
ing. Had they not accepted that compro-
mise they would not now hold majority of
the House, and so be able to expel Republi-
can members. They have violated the ar
rangement in letter and in spirit. The ar
gus ought to know that the committee of ar
bitration was not bound by the action of the
returning board, and that neither Democrats
nor Republicans desired that it should be so
bound. In the interests of Cancellation both
parties consented to go outside of the re-
turns, and to abide by the arbitration. The
Republicans have held to their agreement
and have given the House to the Democrats,
though it is doubtful if the Democrats had
any right to that control. The Democrats,
in order to geta majority on joint ballot
have broken their agreement. Neither party
had the right, after the solemn promises
made, to go behind the decision of the COM
mittee,

The New Hampshire Conspiracy.

Since the March election the Democratic
papers of New Hampshire have persistently
refused to acknowledge that there is a lawful
Republican majority in the state House of
Representatives. Why they persisted in
stultifying themselves, in refusing to accept
the logic of events, was for some time not
clear. But it now appears, from admissions
made, that they were paving the way for a
piece of political rascality throwing into the
shade anything Of the sort ever attempted in
American history; for the introduction of
Louisiana tactics into New England. The
rascality in question is to get possession of
the House by rejecting legally elected Re-
publican members.
According to the returns and certificates Of
election received 191 members of the House
of Representatives are Republicans and 1872
are Democrats, giving Republican majority
of nine. The Senate stands five and five,
leaving two vacancies to be filed on joint
ballot. The certificates of election are made
out by the town clerks and sent to the Sec
retary of State, who transmits them, sealed,
to the clerk of the old House. The duties of
the clerk have ever been held to be only
clerical, and he simply has the power to
make up the roll from the legal certificates.
But the clerk Of the old House is Demo-
crat, and the Democrats are claiming that he
is the proper judge of the qualifications OF
members and that he has the power to go
back of the certificates and pass upon the
evidence that may be submitted to impeach
them. Notices have been served on some
twenty members of the House that their
seats will be contested on the ground of fraud
and illegality. The old clerk is relied upon
tants upon the roll. This will give the DEM
ocrats the organization of the House, the
selection Of two Senators on joint ballot, the
consequent possession of the Senate and tho
choice Of governor through the Legislature.
1t seems almost incredible that such a
scheme can be seriously entertained, or that
if can have the support of any number of
people for moment. But the Democrats of
New Hampshire have repeatedly exhibited
themselves as the most violent and unscru-
pulous of partsans, and there is no telling
to what lengths their folly and vindictiveness
will carry them. That the conspiracy will
succeed is not at all probable. The Repub-
licans of the granite state are men used to
political contests, possessing an abundance of
pluck, and ever ready to resist all attempts
to defeat the will of the people. 1t is easy
to believe their declaration that the old clerk
will be thrown out of the window of the state
house should he attempt the desperate game
charged to him.

THE announcement that Athens is to be
put in a state of siege will crate harshly upon
the ears of all lovers of Greece, her history,
and her traditions. The measure is excused
on the ground of the great excitement which
prevails over the coming elections. The situ-
alton is this: In the last month of last year
the opposition members refused to take their
seats in parliament, hoping thus to defeat all
legislative measures for want of quorum.
But the ministry declared that those who abb
sented themselves had forfeited their seats,
and determined the quorum by only counting
the members actually present. The public
indignation at this measure was SO great that
the king was compelled to dismiss the parlia-
ment and proclaim new election. The dis
content has not subsided, however, and the
government, apprehensive of serious conse-
quences, has ordered out the troops and, will
proclaim the capital in state of siege.

THOSE who are fond of argument can
amuse themselves by discussing the Mecklen-
burg Declaration of Independence. There is
sufficient doubt about its existence to make
the controversy interesting. 1t does not ap-

some of the fathers are quoted as denouncing
IT as fabrication. IT there were no declara-
tion there ought to have been, and so it is
