Presidential campaign has scared for it hosts Of
new friends, and has placed beyond controversy
the United States During the political struggle
preceding the election. the tulness, accuracy nd
fairness Of its news reports were as obvious AS
its vigor and breadth ofview as organ OF pu Bile
opinion. the critical situation in which the
country is placed by the disputed result OF the
election has been promptly recognized by the
Times but it has seen no reaso to modify the
claim which it urged alone among its cotempo-
raries. that the vote of the 18th OF November Sc
cured majority Of electoral votes for Hayes and
Wheeler. Readers of the weekly Times on
the day following the election were placed in pos
session OF returns and conclusions based upon
them, which were simply the most complete and
trustworthy published i'll any part OF the Union.
The more Thoroughly the facts of the election are
disentangled from the mass OF Democratic false
hood and pretense which has been thrown around
them, the more clearly is the justice reveal
ed of the claims made by the Times the morn
ing after the election.
Steadfastly claiming. therefore, the election OF
the Republican candidates, the .sTimes'' recogni-
yes the fresh responsibilities which this renewal
of a great public trust imposes upon the party,
The Times was among the foremost defenders
in the party which triumphed in the nomination
of Rutherford 3 Hayes at Cincinnati 1t will be
as prominent and as uncompromising in its de-
mand Tor the embodiment OF these principles in
administrative and legislative action. The cleo
ton has given rise TO constitutional controver-
sizes whose discussion NAV last for months ia
come and whose settlement may tax all the good
sense, forbearance, and law-abiding instincts OF
the people at large. 1t will be our constant en-
deavor to correct excited feeling by dspassionate
argument, to urge the supreme necessity OF mod
GRAFTON and fair dealing, and to place the respor-
Sibility for stirring up strife where it belongs
But shall do so, without abating one lot of the
just demands Of party which stands securely on
the right, and Of people, the integrity OF whose
institutions depends on q Scrupulous obedience
to the demands of law.
The weekly Times containing as it does Sc
I.cted editorials on topic OF national and general
