FLORIDA:

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, Nov. 2O.-The Demo-
cratic managers here to-day took two bold
and decisive steps that show that they intend
to force the fighting sll the way through.
Through Col. Sellers, Of Philadelphia, and
Col. Rosby, of Tallahassee, they made
application this morning to Judge White,
Of the Circuit Cour9, now holding court At
Wakaulia, for an injunction restraining
Governor Stesrns from undertaking to can
vass the returns Of the electoral vote to the
exclusion of the Board of Canvassers, and
also fora mandamus compelling the Board
of Canvassers to begin the canvasstng Of
the votes at once.
Both papers were prepared with great
care and elaborateness. The bill asking for
an injunction against the Governor recites
that the petitioners have reason to believe
that the Governor is contemplating the
taking of such step. The petitioners then
proceed to recite clearly that the Governor has
no shadow of authority for undertaking the
canvass of tho electoral vote from the hands
of the duly appointed Canvassing Board.
The petition, praying that msndamus is
sue ordering the Board to proceed at once
to the canvassing Of such returns ~ are in,
acknowledges that, while the Board cannot
be compelled to close the canvass before the
the thirty. fifth day after the election, unless
all the returns are received before that time,
argues that there is nothing to prevent the
Board from commencing at once and pro-
ceeding upon such county returns as have
been received. It further recites that -
there is ID unusual number Of county ss-
turns under contest, and - there is . vast
mass of testimony to be sitted, unless the
Board proceeds to work promptly there will
be no time for the consideration Of this tes-
timony, and alleges that the refusal Of the
order will amount practically to 4 denial Of
justice. gls8 ilas .sgl4 ,n-ait .m a,t
