noon tho election Of the Democratic ticket
rave way TO doubt. and this morning some
Republicans are insisting that Hayes and
Wheeler are elected. As We have waited
so long. IL 10 we'll to wait . little
before making up n minds upon
Tho question. We should like 10 stop at
Tho doubts Of the Presidential question.
We would prefer 10 believe that there will
DO NO dangers connected with IL. The
political revolution BY which the
people change their rulers every
Tour years, and the chssrfulness with
which nearly half Of them submit TO the
decision Of the other half. are provsrbial.
Once, indeed. the minority refused to
submit. and . great war ensued. That,
however. was an exceptional case. The
Of Lincoln was the occasion. rather
than the cause. Of the rebellion. and II has
been taken for granted since the war. ~
fully ~ before Il. that there will be no
appeal from tho ballot box. We do not
look for uny trouble now. whatever may
be the vote VI the Electoral College; but
a. some Of the newspapers arc directing
attention 10 the grave possibilities Of
dangers In the event OF the casting
Of . majority Of the electoral votes for
Hayes and Wheeler. 10 10 we'll 70 consider
the subject. Danger can arise out OF two
sets Of facts: first. the popular vote OF o
Stats for Presidential electors may be
fraudulently cast or counted. or friends Of
the defeated candidates may. believe or
pretend TO believe that IL has been 30 cast
or counted ; secondly. when the returns Of
the electoral vote CONE up from the several
States 70 be counted In the Capitol at
Washington In presence % the two houses
Of Congress. the friends OF tho candi-
date who would be defeated II tho
vote Of = certain State should be east
against him. may object In good
faith. OF upon some convenisnt preteXt. TO
the counting OF that vote. The loose and
indefinite provisions OF the Federal Con-
~stitution prepare the way for difficulties.
II anybody chooses 10 make them. Tho
Constitution provides that the President
Of the senate shall. In the presence OF tho
Senate and House OF Representatives open
all certificates Of electoral votes and tho
votes shall then DO counted. II will be
seen that there is wide room for . CON.
stltutional question here. who shall count

unjust and has been practically Abrogatsd,
and the only guide for proceedings upon
