clearly illegal method Of defeating q
palpable fraud then, by all means, let
him be defeated.
F.om Indianapolis News, Republican.
The less Republicans jubilate now the
better. They have nothing to boast of.
If Governor Hayes becomes President
he is shorn Of the moral consciousness
that he is fully and lairly elected.
From Evarts' speech in 1875.
Let any body take step that surpasses
the fair limits OF political competition
and political agitation, and the President
who takes MS seat under such title
shall have nothing but curses and i'm
prisoument, and not the enjoyment Of
power.
From the Chicago Tribune rep
NO CanvaSsing Board will dare at

will never engage in n civil war to up
bold the counting of votes never cast, or
offered TO be cast, or to reject lawful
votes legally cast and recorded on the
poll lists

From the Chicago Tribune, Republican.
The Republican party cannot survive
the election OF Il Republican President,
should the American people, in the light
ri all the facts, come 10 the conclusion

From the Boston Advertiser, (RepD.
Let the Republicans of the south be as
enred that they Csn do their party and
this country no greater service than by
Insisting upon n fair and open canvass OF
all the votes cast, and a speedy declara-

ans that is the offspring OF fraud. Fraud
and law have no common offices; they
cannot assert coordinate power When
they cross each others path, one or the
other must perish, and neither T1lden nor
Hayes can be ".ho legally chosen Prcsl-
dent of the United States" if the Kellogg
return board, under the dim color of law,

favor that disputes the actual vote n
polled.
Matt Carpenters Opinion In 1873.
a. object to the counting of the votes
Given Tor L 5. Grant for President and
Henry Wilson for Vice President, by
the electors of Louisiana, because there
is no proper return of votes cast by the
electors of the State of Louisiana, and
because there is no State govern ment in
said State which is Republican in form,
and because no canvass or counting Of
the votes cast for electors in the State OF
louisiana at the election held in NOvem-
Der last had been made prior to the
meeting OF the electors"
From Boston Transcript, Republican
As the matter now stands the flat of
the electoral college is irreversible. Mr..
Tilden has been constitutionally elected
President of the United States. 1t is to
be- hoped. for the sake of the American
name that some arrangements, by the
consent of Congress and the different
States, will rc,rsae the incoming Presi-
dent from that part Of the odium which
would necessarily result from owning his
election to the ballot of the Oregon Dem
ocratc clector.
