We publish in another column press dis
patch from Denver giving returns from a
fow Colorado countiea which had not pro-
viously been henrd from, and confirming in
the most positive terms tho prcyions reports
Of sweeping Republican victory, that party
having elected its Governor and CongreBs-
man by over 1000 majority, and having
two-thirds Of tho Legislature. Thts triumph
has boon secured In tho face Of the fact that
tho ignorant Greasera who lire in the south
orn counties voted tho Democratic ticket as
often as WAS thought necessary. This heavy
voting by the most debased, corrupt, and ig-
norant part OF the community might have
pulled the Democrats through had Il not
been that tie Intelligent northern countiea
did what well.educated sections do every.
where-cast an overwhelming voto for the
Republican candidates.
Yet, in apite Of these reports, the accuracy
Of which cannot be impeached, wo have no
idea that tho chioago Times, with It's Demo-
cratic ideas concerning the truth, will cease
claiming that tho State Inns been car
Rod by the Confederatcs. That paper
contained yesterday mass of spurious elec-
ton returns, either forged in It's Office or
sent by somo tool IN Colorado, purporting to
show that tho Democracy bad elected theis
candidates for Governor, Congressman, etc.
The object Of this wholesale Justification was
to delude tho supporters OF Bluc-Jeau Will
1Aa.s into tho belief that they had carried 4
Northern State, and the business Il
to DO kept up persistently by tic
Tima and ita niles until Tuesday
morning. The following day it will own up
that tho now stnte has repudintod Copper.
headisnl by an overwhelming majority.
This lying, to be carried on for q week
through the medium Of bogus dispatches in
the TINES aud othor Confederate organs,
would hayo done vol enough in ths daSf
whon railroads aud telegraphs were un.
known, but now detection follows falsehood
so fast that not oven tho darkest Democrat
in Indiana is ignorant Of tie fact that some,
thing is wrong in Colorado. Would It mol

JUDGE oL1FF0RD'8 ALARMING DECISION.
The attempt Of the Democrats to explain
away Or break tho force Of Ar. B1A1HE's OK
pose Of the formal Judgment by Judge CLtr-
roEp, OF. Mnine,-a voternn Democrat,-
against Col. NEAL Dow personally, for some
sugnr taken by d foraging party Of his regi-
ment, Is signal failuro. Dow's regiment
was in Louisiaua. and the foraging party
camo across sugar refinery, md tho mon
took quantity Of sugar. The owner applied
to tho Colonel for payment, and was told
that II he would provo his loyalty l.o would
bc given receipt This he refused to do,
and brought suit for tho value Of tho sugar
in State court. Dow not being present,
judgment WIS given against him for 81 100.
After the War this judgment was sent 10
Maino and suit was brought upon 1t. Judge
C11rFoaD hal the case before him for
eight years, md made no decision; but
lately, in view Of tho probable res
torntion OF the Democratic party to
power, ho concluded to affirm tho
judgment agninat Dow. This decision is re-
gartlea at tho South aa vast atride towards
general recognition Of the Southern clailns.
The judgment Ia against Dow personally for
tho yaluo OF sugar taken by foraging party
of his regiment. THIS decision is 10 the ef-
/ feet tint the national troops were actually,
~ Mr.. TILDEN said they were, trcspassors
upon Southern soil, and each soldier was
personally responsible for all tho acts Of
himself and his companions. logical de-
duotion from this would be that the use OF

person, and property was Of necessity. en-
titled to compensation. This would cntitlc
tho people of tho Rebel States not only to be
compensated for all their Losses, OF whatever
kind. inflicted by tie War, but that the
wounded, who were only defending them
selves against unjust invasion. should
be paid pensions, and the Burviy-
ing representatives OF tho killed should
be adequately remunesated for the loss Of
husband, father, brother, or son. II this
decision In the Dow case be held to be cor
rect, and each officer and soldier personally
ia responsible for whatever damage he may
have caused in the War, then 1t follows that
tho War itself WIS an unconstitutional and
unjust invaaion OF tho Southern States aud
people. for which both tho soldiers engaged
In It and the Government must Justly make
full compensation. Such decision, made
lust at this time, will OF course fire the

ANOTHER BAMPLE SOUTHERN CLAIM.
The Cincinnati Commercial, which has
boom making very rigid examination Of tho
Southern claims, has unoarthel one which
may stand rs fair sample Of tho impudsnce
and assurance OF tho ox-Rebe1s, The follow.
ing is the official entry Of tho claim:
No. II 103. CHARLES q. KsRA. FtT1Huou
LEE, and GsoRag ". @. LEx. executors OF ANNA
II. Fs7xtuou. late Of Alexandria County, Va, d.
ceascd.
Claim fled Nay 70, 1879. Value of 1875, 600
cords oak and p!ae tim bcs, cut md taken from tho
cAtato Of Rayenswotsh. Fairfax County, by orders
Of various QuafteEnusttss, in 1901, 02, '03, '0i,
and '05, ut 50 per cord, 1875, 900.
Tho primary condition Of establishing
claim before the Commissioners is proof Of
tho loyalty Of tho claimant, "a worry necessary
restriction, sinoe tho admission Of oil tho
Southern claims without any regard to tho
question Of loyalty would apoedily bankrupt
the Treasury, besides establishing precedent
contrary to the usagos Of all nations in time
Of war The ANNA FrTxnUan claimant in
this .case was cousin OF Gen. Lee and the
testimony before the Commissioners estab-
lished tho fact OF her dialoyalty, aud also
allowed that on one occasion sha remarked
that, "befors she would take tho oath OF
allegiance to tho United States, she would
sacrifice all tho property that abe haa." The
reaiduary logatee Of Mrs. Frrznuau was
MARY Cusr1s LEE, the widow Of Gen. LEE,
who mover made any protenslons TO 10y
atty. The disloyalsy Of alt parties con-
cerned being established. Of course tho
claim was rejected But there Is another
