WASHINGTON. Nov. %. 1916


We begin to feel here in Washington
that the eyes Of America. if not of Europe,
are upon us. La two short weeks Con
gress will assemble. and tho anxious
attention of the country will be turned
toward the national capital. Never
before, it may be safely said, will Cou.
gress have assembled under moro trying
or exciting circumstances, and the words,
votes and acts OF each member will be
watched with keenest scrutiny in every
city, village and hamlet OF tao land The
newspaper clrrespo dents who have been
away during the summer are nov back 10
their DID hauus Their familiar noses
for news may be seen almost everywhere,
and their ranks have been considerably
reinforced, some papers that have not
been represented here before having
employed correspondents under the i'm.
preston that, whatever may be the result
Of the presidential contest, the next few
months will DO as lively 10 political
way as any VIC have ever known. II will
be time of making and marriSg reputa.
tons, for making history, and, the lobby.
ists say, not much OF time for making
money. The numerical balance of both
the House and the Senate after tho Alb
of March will be moro nearly even than
it has been since the war, and either Mr..
Hayes or Mr., "ildcn will have his hands

Then there will DO changes Of political
and personal interest. Mr. Blaine will
appear for the first time 10 tho Senate,
where his great parliamentary experience

national reputation. will make him ono

body. And it is not improbable that
fortune will favor him with an excellent
aud familiar roil 10 the person of Senator
Ben Hill Of Georgia, for he. it is said,
will succeed Norwood in the Senate.
Mr.. Beck of Kentucky will appear
again in the national political arena. md
he and Mr.. Lamar OF Mississippi will
divide the burden Of debate on the Dem.
oerato side. which has been borne here
tofore almost exolu-ively by Messrs.
Thurman. Bayard aud Gordon. The
Democrats will be met by such skilled
logical and orstorical giants as Cooking.
Morton. Edmunds. Logon, Sherman. Ere

Senate tho Republicans will maintain
their majority. and on all political quos
tons they will have the support of the

of Wisconsin, Chrisiiancv and Paddock.
In the House, the Republicans will
not be left without leader. Mr.. Frye
of Maine. Mr.. Hoar Gen. Banks, aud
others, will be able 10 tho absence Of Mr..

$3.50 far as our observation has ex.

EESo far as our observation has ex.
tended, and we have made the matter q
study, it is tho uniform feeling Of Re.
pubIicsns as expressed by the party
press and by prominent men 10 the party,
that no fraud or uufairness should be
tolerated in the voting or the counting
of votes. for presidential electors, let the
result be what it may. They feel as ex-
pressed by the president. that SHOULD
there be any grounds ofsuspicion of fraud
ulent counting on either side it should be
reported and denounced at once, No
man worthy of the Office of president
should lba willing to hold it if counted
in orplaced there by any fraud. Either
party can afford to be disappointed in the
result, but the country cannot afford to
have the result tainted by the suspicion
Of illegal or false returns" But on the
other hand there is quito different state
OF feeling among theDemocrats. Their de.
termination seems TO be to capture the
presidency at all hazards, honestly if con.
venient, fraudulently Unnecessary, While
VIGOROUSLY practicing aud conniving at
frauds thoy raise the cry Of "stop thief"
to divert attention from their own delin.
qucncics. If before tho election, while
they were crying "reiorm' 80 loudly,
there was some question as to whether
the Democratic party were not honest in
their professions, there is moro now. The
leaders ofthis party have demonstrated
their. unscrupulousnoss as to methods Of
comprising their ends by the most stu.
peudous frauds ever perpetratcd, and yet
cry out against the ccrruptious of their
opponents with utter reOklassness as to
whether there is even ground for suspio.
ion Of dereliction. If the election were
again toIbo held the result would be an
whelmiug majority for Hayes and
Wheeler:

S6-The Democratic leaders are raising
great hue and cry that the Republicans
aud returning boards are committing
frauds and counting out their candidates.
The Republicans are certainly very sroug
if they attempt to steal democratic thun
der. All that sort Of thing belongs ex.
clusively to the Democrats by priority of
discovery and long practice, and if they
have not already taken cut patent for
it they are entitled to one.
