If, as has been claimed by the Republicans
In the senate, congress has no power to go be-
hind the returns from the several States. then
Hlden and Hendricks must be declared elect
ed by the Vioe-President If, on the other
hand, the senate and house of representatives
determine that they have the right to 90 be-
hind the certified vote of the State of Oregon.
then they must look into the validity of the
vote as certified from the States of Louisiana,
South Carolina, and Florida. In that case.
as the actual vote III all three States was cast
for TIlden and Hendricks, congress must de-
eide that the electoral vote of those States be
given as the majority of the people voted,
thus electing Tilden and Hendricks by 2O4
instead Of lS5 votes.

THE New York Erening Post, treating Of
the Oregon case, notwithstanding it has all
along been Republican and has supported
Hayes, says:
Whatever differing theories concerning that de
cison may be entertained, this much Is plain: The
same Theory must be applied 70 all cases Ii will moi
40 20 make various laws for various States II il be
heid that when the votes come 10 be counted In
washington the certificates may be inquired into
further than Is necessary TO ascertain their genuine
ness, that rule must be impaTtially applied IT, as
We nave Inclined 10 believe the appointment OF elect
ors Is purely state matter. and II there is no power
70 go behind the authentic certificates OF State Off
Gers, that rule must be impartialy applied II the
Democrats insist upon inquiring into the proceedings
OF the Louisiana returning board. they cannot pre-
vent the Republicans from inQUirlng into the pro
ceedings OF the Oregon governor On the other hand
II the Republicans insist that the authentic action OF
the state Is conclusive IN louisiana they must adj
init that II Is conclusive in Oregon.
The Post is right The Radicals have been
hoisted by their own petard, and must stay
hoisted.

MoRToN AND MITCHELL may howl, but
the facts are against them. The governor of
each State issues a certificate Of election con-
tanning the names Of the Presidential electors
appointed for that State. The names are
al contained in one certificate. The assertion
that the Democratic elector Of Oregon refused
to deliver their certificates to the Republican
electors Is therefore false. There is but one
certificate IN each State, and that contains
the names Of the electors declared bY the
governor TO have been legally elected In
Oregon, as that State is entitled to three
electors, the certificate contains three names.
The Republican electors withdrew from the
room where they had met to receive the GER
tihcate. The elector who remained therefore
filed the vacancies caused by the absence Of
the other electors, as he was bound by law
10 do.

SENATOR JoHN SHERMAN disgraced HIM
self and wilfully lied when he stated in his
bull1ozing address that the Pinkston case was
one Of political intimidation. All the facts
addlced before4im and the returning board
were the other way. And now comes a tele-
gram from New Orleans informing us that on
the ninth instant Phillips and others were
brought up for preliminary hearing on the
charge of killing Pinkston. Mrs. Pinkston
was a witness, and on the discrimination
contradicted herself so frequently that the
attorney representing the State SAID that
there was nothing IN the prosecution. What
does Sherman andhis fellow -bulldozers of the
senate say to that?

for this moral earthquake as the

to every command and endured
every outrage. They have been
the willing advocates Of every act
Of usurpatiOu which has marked

crowd Of adventures and jobbers,
whose representative is now
under impeachment, were enable
