1t is now announced that Tennyson's new
poem is an historical drama entitled "Har-

ten OF twenty thousand democratic majority
and declare in favor Of the Hayes electors
and 50 certify 70 the senate and house at
Washington, there is no going behind this
declaration; there must be no question
raised; we must accept the verdict. This
was the position of these radical leaders.
They had the returning boards all fixed,
and they felt secure. But about. this time
the governor Of Oregon made up his mind
that he could not, according to the laws Of
his state, certify to the election OF Mr.Watts,
as ne was ineligible on the day of the presi
Dental election, " hen he was voted for,conse
quently he gave his opponent, Mr.Cronin, the
certificate of election as one OF the electors.
Tzis gives Mr.. Tilden a majority of one vote
in the electoral college, bona fdc prilaa
facic majority This then, apparently
checkmates the radical conspiracy, and fur
nishes the dilemma for them 70 get rid OF.
1t looks as If this ought 10 block their game.
Not bit of it. Now they propose TO insist
upon the president of the senate not only 10
open the votes land that is all the constitu-
ton empowers him TO do, but To count them
and declare the result, graciously allowing
the house of representatives 10 sit quietly
and look on. They propose when the presi-
dent of the senate comes TO the vote Of Ore
gon, that evil open it and declare the
state unit for Hayes Now they have
check enough TO call this the constitu-
tional method, and they expect to do this,
and if the democrats in the house OF repre-
sentatives do not quietly acquiesce, the plot
is to have Grant send bayOnets enough into
congress 10 force them TO acquiesce,
as he did in South Carolina the other
day with the legislature. We believe
that the president if approached with sim
liar proposition at a TIME when he has been
fortifying himself with constitutional law
from a certain black bottle, which late, ire
quent and unquestionable rumor says he
cons;.l,s often, then we verify believe that
there are very serious and sorrowful times
ahead for the American people. We draw
the veil over the future here. 1t would
seem that by this time radicalism had
thoroughly disguised the nation. This one
fruit-the radical returning boards-ought
to be sufficient TO do 50. Any system
which upholds four or five scoundrels called
a returning board, and allows them to annul
and throw out 10000 votes and substitute
1000 or 5000 more, that virtually disfran-
chise thousands of American citizens and
from whom there is no appeal is worthy Of
no honorable place or mention anywhere
on Gods green earth, unless it be among
Al. IL II trail
Africa. 1t is a system worthy OF hell itself.

Wednesday, Chamberlain Declared
Elected by 3.Of4 INTERPRETATION of
the supreme COurt--rsamptOn Still

BY Telegraph 10 the Associated Press
COLUMBIA, =. c.. Dee. 5.-This morning the
troops were withdrawn fIom the doors and
entrances 20 the state house and the places of
the sentinels supplied by special constables
acting under the orders of Governor Chamber
lain. 4 large number Of special deputy ser
geants at arms were enrolled and placed ut the
doors of the senate and republican house.
The troops are still retained in the state
house for the purpose OF projecting the gov
ernOr. 4 sentinel PAGES the corridor in front
of Governor Chamberlain'S office. The senate
and house, in joint session, after the passage
OF "A concurrent resolution, met and canvassed
the vote for governor and lieutenant COVER
nor. The counties OF Edgefeld, which gave
Hampton over 1920 majority, and Laurens
which gave him over Lice majority, were pre-
viously thrown out, when the democratic SEN
'ators retired from the hall. The returns
were then canvasSed, and Lieutenant Cow
ernor Gleaves and Speaker Mackey declared
Chamberlain elected by 3.0ii votes and the two
houses then adjourned. IL is expected that
Chamberlain will be inaugurated tomorrow.
The Hampton house has been in session all
day Their action was unimportant except
that they gained two more members from the
Mackey house, making their membership t.
holding certificates of the board of state can
vassers %, including the Edgefield and
Laurens delegations who hold certif-
Gates of the supreme court. Wade Hampton
spoke this evening, declaring that he intended
to be governor. In the supreme court an ar
gument was heard on the application for
n'onddDluS compelling the secretary OF state To
deliver. the returns to Speaker Wallace, and
the pa Tsers were taken under adVfsement. The
argument on the quo ,r0rrd1fo proceedings, re-
curing the Hayes electors to show by what
authority they exercise the functions OF their
office, will be- heard tomorrow morning. The
electors meet tomorrow.

WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER l9.
THE OREGON VOTE.

In the debate on the Oregon question last
Thursday, Senator Morton said that a case
colld not be found where a minority candi-
date had ever been elected on account OF the
= ineligibiiit- OF the person receiving ma.
lOrity of the votes east. Ihe con-
duct of the governor of Oregon could find
no justification in laws, in morals or in the
testimony Of the people Of the United
States
This reckless assertion is completely met
and overcome by the decisions of our own
supreme court. In 1855 Gulick and Wal
lace were the opposing candidates for sheriff
of Marion county. Wallace received ma
jority-of the votes cast; but was ineligible
because at the time OF the election he held
judicial Office, and the constitution of the
state made him ineligible to any executive
Office during his judicial term. Gulick
claimed the Office, although he was the mi
nority candidate; and it was decided in his
faver. See Ii Ind. Rep. SO. The supreme court
cleses its decision in that case as follows:
Wallace, then. at the time he was voted for
for sheriff, was ineligible. The people knew
it. The votes east for him were thrown away,
and Cfulick was elected and has since the cleo
ton been dc ittTe. al least, sheriff of Marion
county.
The same decision is made in Carson vs..
McPhetridge t15 Ind, 327). In Price v.
Baker or Ind, 90 the supreme court uses
the following language:
1T is a principle oflaw well settled in this
state, that where majority of the ballots at
an election are gwen 10 a candidate who is not
eligible to the office, the ballots cast not
TO be counted for purpose. They can not
be counted to elect the Ineligible candidate, or
to defeat the election of an opposing candidate
of the votes cast at such election. They are re-
garded as illegal, and as having no effect upon
the election for any purpose. as a e4nse-
eligible, having the highest number of legal
votes, though that number may be less than
the number of ' OteS cast for The Ineligible can
didate, and less than a majority OF all the votes
cast at such election, Is entitled TO the Office.
The last mentioned case was decided by
the present bench. and the effect of the de
cision was to defeat the claim of a democrat
and to continue a republican in Office. We
might add to these cases from our own
courts
The governor of Oregon is completely sus-
tanned in his action by our supreme court.
The election laws are local 10 the several
states. What may be the effect Of
votes cast for an ineligible candidate
must depend upon the decision of the
courts or executive of the state. In the
states where the courts or executive hold
that such votes are not to be counted for any
purpose, that is the law, and the eligible
candidate is elected, although he may re-
ceive less than majority. The decision of
the governor of Oregon upon this question
of local law can not be reversed or disre-
crarfla1
