TILE RECANYASS OF VOTES.
LOUISIANA.

If 'the vote actually cast" in Lou
isiana had been counted as "the vote
actually cast" in every other State ex-
cept two is compelled TO be counted
by law, the Democratic electors would
have been declared chosen. 1t is
claimed that an arbitrary law sane.
tons an entirely different course in
that State. The burden of proof,
therefore, is upon the Republicans.
They must justify every step in the
proceedings, both in law and in FACT,
or be condemned by every honest and
intelligent man in the country. BY
this Judgment every Democrat is will
ing to abide. Republicans, however,
are not willing to do so. They con-
tess the weakness Of Their case in adj
vance, They admit that they have
stolen the electoral votes of Florida
and Louisiana. But they pretend that
they have stolen them through the
forms Of law, and they defy public
opinion. They have been thus de-
tiant, unit! right here, in the central
conservative States Of the Republic,
they have been reduced to a minority,
without any support whatever from
the cultured moral sense Of the COM
munity. The Democracy can stand
such defianc" as long as Republicans
can. If Republicans are not willing
to meet the issue on the merits, so
much the worse for them. They then
confess defeat in advance.

lille BLESSING OF THE Poor. Those
IN Montpelier, and in several other
towns in the county--notably Plain
field and East Montpeler-who have
recently contributed clothing and
money ia aid of the eighty Or ninety
destitute children at the Home in Bur-
ington, hardly need be told that the
grateful Acknowledgements of these
needy little ones comes back to them
in full measure. The managers say ::
eve wish we could tell you how much
you have helped us. The ready SYM
pathy and willingness to laid of our
friends in your vicinity have served us
many times before, and we wish we
could express TO them, in some way,
our appreciation Of their kindness. ="
Our only wonder is. that there are any
who can resist, especially as the cold
season comes on, the mute appeal
OF these innocent, suffering little ones
most emphatically Chrlst's poor.

The Oregon Electoral Question.

Gov. Grover has recently published
q long and deliberately prepared state
ment of his official action regarding
the recent electoral middle in Oregon.
The statement is a defence of his off
cial conduct. After discussing at
great length the legal features Of the
case and citing numerous authorities
in support of his position, the Gov
ernor concludes as follows ''Believ-
ing this to be the inevitable logic de-
duclble from the law and the facts in
the premises. | conclude that Watts
is not eutitled to certificate of cleo.
ton, because the Constitution Of the
United States declares he shall not be
appointed, and that L. A. Cronin is
entitled to q certificate of election as
one of the electors OF the State, be-
cause he is an eligible candidate, and
has the highest number Of legal votes
cast Tor that office next after the cleo
tors VIM. n. Odell and John G. Cart
wright, whose elections are not con.
tested. Any other conclusion would
dsfranchise the State Of Oregon as to
one third of her representation in the
College Of Electors, TO my mind it
is clear that the positive injunction of
the Constitution of the United States
on the subject Of electors should be
enforced.

The Constitution provides that
"The president Of the Senate shall, in
presence of the Senate and House of
Representatives, open all the certifi-
Gates, and the votes shall then be
counted" BY virtue of this provision
it is claimed that the president ofthe
Senate is empowed to count the voted.
If the trainers of the Constitution has
any such intention did they not know
enough about the use of language to
express it by providing as they natur-
ally would that the president of the
Senate should open all the certificates
and then count the votes?

If the old maxim, that the receiv-
er Of stolen goods is as bad as the
thief, remains in force until March,
Rutherford B. Hayes cannot mount
the steps ofthe Capitol at Washing

as President, without seeing millions
of scornIul fingers pointed at him
from all quarters of the Union, nor
without hearing millions Of indignant
voices muttering in his ears, "There
stands a receiver of stolen votes"

The Hon. William 4. Chandler
writes from Concord, N. H., to the
Neao York Tribune to warn the
Northern people that the Democrats
are preparing to inaugurate another
rebellion and civil war rather than
submit to Hayess Inauguration. W..
E. is a great discoverer. He discov-
cred majorities in Florida that did not
exist, and now, looking through the
same glass that Zachariah uses, he
dscerns the gathering Of the war
cloud. Anything to get those cotton
claims through. If the "rascaIIy'
Democrats want to ''inaugurate an
ether rebellion they cannot do il for
the army of the United States is now
entirely under the control OF the So
called Republican party, Who are
willing and ready to use it "to inaug.
crate Hayes q Wheeler on the 9TH of
March next" Such statements as the
above from W. L. Chandler are false
and only calculated for clectioneering
clap-trap. But will the honest people
of the Granite State, put any depend
ence upon the political ''bosh" put
forth by that uuprincipled heartless
demagogue, ". Z. Chandler. We
shall see?

Samuel j. Tilden is still writing
editorials for the Democratic papers,
according to the Philadelphia Press.
It's pity that the Press doesn't Sc
cure his services and shed q beam of
sense on its pages occasionally. Is it
not pity that Brother Greene of the
Standard, and other Republican edi
tors in the State, do not, also secure
the services Of Gov. Tilden or some
other person of equal ability and mer,
it to write their political "leaders 2
They would then be all right, and not
the stale, bogus matter as at present.

On Monday the 18th INST, the
"Rebel" House Of Representatives. at
Washington, adopted a resolution in
structing the Judiciary Committee to
report Constitutional amendment
prohibiting the payment of Rebel
War Claims, We believe there is an
amendment already, that meets this
object. But any way let this one
pass it can do no hurt. The "bloody
shirt" issue is fast playing out 1t
will have no existence in the next
Presidential campaign. We are glad
to get rid OF this hnmbug issue.
