Hayes on the contraiy, las 1876 undispuied
electoral votes
He claims 10 more, and they have been
accorded to him by The Returning Boards.
Every one OF these 10 votes is furnished
with iLeradicable suspicion.
The States giving them were under the
control Of RudIpuI Ian of I,,,l
character
The polling apparatus in these States was
entirely Republican.
The United States troops We're on the
ground, and under The direct control of the
Republican candidates and their friends,
the United STATES marshas.
Every possible appliance was brought to
bear that would deprive Tildcn OF the votes
oil these States ana secure them TO HAYES
In spite OF ali this Hayes has not been able
to secure one OF them, except through VIC
lations OF the sanctily OF the ballot and out
RACES put upon the courts
lie cannot claim one of these votes eXCept
from the hands OF rasculy adventures, W ON
the leading men of his own party have been
foremost 10 disaVow und dcnOncc
lie mot receive one Of them, when the
vote comes to be counted in joint meeting OF
the Houses, except 10y is fri nds doing vic.
lence to presidents which they themselves
h-yeseI up and been guided by.
He will be not only a minority President
but yoiceless i'll the councils OF his own party
unless he chooses 10 break with the men
who haze conducted his canvass for him.
with them hostile to him lie will be pow
crless.
With them controlling lie will be the
worst tool CT the worst element in the Re
publican party.
He willepresent nobody and control moth
ing.
In Ii s hands we will have four years more
OF business proslratiOn aud of the contention
of factions too fierce TO attend to The bushes,
of the country.
Under his Administr ton there can be NJ
hope Of the in ,uguraliOn of single reform
furnished at the outset, il must dwinde in
imbecilily and soften into rotlenness, or con
sumnlaic by additional force the usurpalior
OF authority i'll the lhroes OF which it wa
born
The business men OF the country shoulC
see to this thing.
They have it in their power to prevent tn,
inauguration of The spurious President ant
secure the Inauguration OF the one duly cleo
ted.
They can inlimidate Congress and the ad
yenturers at Washington and force them Il
do their duty.
They can, by holding public meetings an,
organizing public sentiment, put such pres
sure upon the people at Washington as L
settle this question definitely before Fcbru
airy
In New York the movement has alrcad
begun
The business men of Baltimore must nc
be idle. Every co sideralion which can in
fluence men now impels them 10 prompt an
immediate actio... The action must be ten
perate, but il must be firm and unmisal
able.
