COLORADO cast her maiden State vote
last Tuesday for the Radical ticket.
The Radicals elected their candidates
for the State offices, Congressman, and
. majority Of the Legislature-thus Sc
curing two United States Senators. The
Legislature viii select Presidential cleo
tors. The vote Of the State is therefore
secured for Hays and Wheeler. Two
years ago the Democrats elected the
Congressional delegate by 2, 100 majority;
but the Republicans carried the territory
in 1872 by 1886 majority, and in 1870
by majority of 1872. The recent
election is not as we would have 1t, but
if our readers will turn to the estimates
which we have repeatedly published,
they will see that Colorado has not been
set down among the Tilden States.
Somehow an impression was abroad that
the Democratic majority Of 1874 was
more apparent than real; and the late
election has shown that it was we'll.
founded.

Half n million is not much. Besides, the
Southern Claims which the House voted Ia
pay were not very different ia character
from other claims, urged by patriotic car
pet-bSggerS at other sessions, aud passed bN
Republican msiorities. The trouble is that
the South is full of them. We confess some

Some Radical orators and newspapers
essay to make the colored people believe
that none but Northern Republicans
fought ON the side of the Union in the
late war, and that they are therefore in
debted to that class exclusively for their
newly acquired privileges. Now, as the
Southern whites are willing to let the
dead past bury its dead in their concern
about the future, care nothing about
who fought or who did not fight in the
North on the Union side. But as the
question has been raised, a correspondent
of the New York Sun gives the names
of six soldiers on each side in the i'm.

IT now appears that the original cir.
culAr of the Attorney General was pre-
pared in haste, although there was a pre-
tence that it was under thoughtful con-
sideration for several weeks. In the
first place, the Attorney General did not
know of the importance of section 5,522
of the revised statutes, which makes
every person, whether with or without
any authority, power or process, or pre-
tended authority, power or process, re-
spOnsible for interference at elections.
When the general of the army, however,
issued general order No. 50 and incorpo-
rated this section in his order, Judge
Taft thought it was time to call the at
tention of the United States Marshals to
it. So he has issued an amended order,
with the above section included in the
references, and sent the same to his
subordinates throughout the country.
The weekly clarion., 1876-10-11

Over SIR and three quarter btAtoRs OF
dollars have therefore been squandered
simply in running the Government.
The annual expenses of the Government
for the ten years Immediately preceding
the war averaged about s6O, 100000. At
this rate, the expenses for the II years,
from 1865 to 1875 inclusive, should
amount to 5000, 900, 900. If we allow
three times as much for each item of ex-
.pense-a most liberal and adequate
allowance the cost of running the Gov
ernment would have amounted, for those
IL years, to 81, $3.50. 600, 900. Deduct
this together with the amount of payments
made on account of war expenses, the
public debt, pensions, interest," etc, from
the amount of revenues collected, and we
have the following startling results:
