The Eighth Distr,ct.-Where Was the
Fraud!

The Grand Rapids (W Wood Col Tribune
states some very able facts AS to the grounds
on which Judge Cate claims the election
of Congressman from that District These
facts sustain also the position taken by this
paper from the start to the effect that, of
the legal votes cast at the election, Judge
Cate received majority ever McDiIl, in
GLIDING McDill's irregular majorlties in the
rejected precincts of Wood county 1t ls
said that 1t is proposed to prove and that
1t Will be proved that large numbers of IL
legal votes were cast in OcOnto and on tie
line OF the West Wisconsin railroad by rail
road employ ees, for DR.. McDill 1t has, in
Tact, beer reported that bandcars, loaded
With section men, passed from station to
station on both the West Wisconsin and
the Green Bay railroads, stopping to vote
at each polling place or voting precinct
which they passed, and that these votes SO
cast were for the republican candidate
The paper quoted from above also says
that III the Lake Superior counties "hund-
reds of votes were cast by tribal Indians
redskins drawing annually from the govern.
nient their breech clouts, blankets, buck
shot and Ereenbacks, and these votes have
been eanvassed for DR.. McDiN." A bill
of particulars. as called for by Beeeher in
the 1ilton case, would, it Is said, discover
the fact that ou i.apoin;e leland, precinct
of Ashland county. Sd votes were cast where
there are only two shaniies in eSiste.ce in
" hich eight legal voters reside. 10 the vii
lage Of Ashland, reliable reports shy that
Indians were permitted to vote without let
or hindrance. Ashland county cast 2is
votes, when in fact it has not orer 90 voters
The same is true, it is alleged of Bayfield,
county. Il is said that over two hundred
Of this kind IF votes were cast and returned
for McDiil
Under these circumstances-and more
can be said about Barron and other coun-
ties, it is considered that Judge Cate may
well claim an honess .;t'a to the Congress
sional seat AID demand an investigation
from Congress Into the facts.-Nl. Nsr,.

The Men who Made the Hoosac
Tunnel.
From the 81 ringfeld Republican.


The Constructive period Of the tunuel can
hardly De dismissed without word Of praise
for the singular Irobity and detern ina, ion
with which the Shanlys have pushed their
work through to Ita completion, in the face
of unexpected and costly obstacles. The
Shanlys were the first party to take hold of
the work who seem to have thrown over
board in the outset all hopes that might be
disappointed, ali enthusiasm that might be
quenched by the internal foods of the
mountains, all brittle sentiments, and fur
nishings which might be dashed against
the rock. They went in with nothing but
their working clothes on and to stay. An
international reputation for grim determin-
alton, for skill III managing great under
takings and great bodies Of employees, for
the honest performance of their contracts,
and for inspiring probity in all their deal
ings, is about all they will realize from their
investment. Pecuniarilv, even if all their
claims are allowed they will be heavy losers
by the contract. The questions still unset,
tied between them and the Common wealth
Of Massachusetts were amicaby arrang,
at an interview between Mr. Walter Shaulv
and the Governor and Council. so far as the
Executive has authority to proceed.

MARBLE, E-g., Secretary of he Manhattan
Club DEAR SIR: II does me
good to take my old friend Tilden by the
hand at any time. But to do 80 nov, and
to greet him as the chosen executive Of the
Empire State, would fill me with Joy no
words can tell. look upon him as rep
rc.entatiye man Of courage and integrity
= as a true Democratic Republican.
! look upon lis election. at this time as
the dawn of that b5tter day when the true
spirit and theory Of our Government, ns
taught in the school of Madison and Of
Jackson, will be fully recognized by the
people Of the United Stafes and by the peo-
pie of all States. 1t is that theory alone
hich can save the Un'on from secession,
and at the same time cave the State. and
the liberties Of Their people from centralized
despauam. It Is a theory which acknowl-
edges and mainta.ns the sovereignty of the
United StG,es as one nnr.rn IN all things
delegated to it by the constitution, and
without which union is impossible; and II
is Il theory which at the same time racoE-
r1zes and maintains tho sovereignty of the
States over that great mass OF powers not
delegated to the Federal Government nor
prohibited to the States, without which
State sovereignty, home government in the
States, and the liberties of their people
cannot ling he maintained.
According TO that theory there is nation
al sovereignty and there is State sover-
eighty, each limited to its own sphere but
absolute within it, Those spheres are
bounded by each other; and the consttu
ton is written on purpose to define those
boundaries ana to show where one begins
and the other ends.
That theory is at war with tho seues
sionIst, who sees no sovereignty in the
Union which the State is bound to respect,
and 1t IL at war with the ccntraiist, who
sees no sovereignty Ill the States which the
Union Il bound to respect. 1t sees aud re
'pects the Sovereignty of both, ard insist.
upon and maintains the constitution, which
prescr.Jcs the true limitations upon the
sovereignty of each
Let me ask you, my dear sir, to present
for me tie following sentiment:
The Democrats Republican President,
to be elected in lS76-like the Governor
elect of New York, neither secessionis,
nor centralist; one who respects aud
maintains the national sovereignty estab
lished and limited by the Constitution, in
order to preserve the Union and to make
The United States great power among the
nations; and one who, at the same tlme
maintains and reyeres the sovereignty oil
the States, guaranteed by the Constitution,
in order to preserve, in iull force, republi
cuu government bv rho naonle IF o.. oh State
without which local government and liberty
must both perish, Respectfully,

between the two conflicting tendencies of

and so it !. that unrest pervades the lands.
