Fraud May Not Prevail.

There is evidence in the high-handed
proceedings of the Grant administration in
South Carolina, in the past history and
present proceedings Of the Republican
party in Louisiana, and in the indications
from Florida, sufficient to convince most
men that the electoral votes of all those
states are to be cast for the Republican
candidates. That we regard as Il ioregone
conclusion. 1t mattered not to the Re-
turning Board of Louisiana in 1872 that its
whole action was q farce aud q fraud, as
four Republican United States Senators
declared alter a full investigation 1t will
matter not to the present officials that
their proceedings are equally scaudalous
The point is to declare the three states

The history OF the proceeding will next
come before the country, with a flood of
| light poured upon them. exposed to the
| scrutiny ot the outraged and indignant
people oi the community. The press
| will blazon it, speakers at public meet
ings viii denounce it, and the righteous
| Indignation Of :; people will scout such Il
mockery OF fairness and justice Before
the day appointed Ion opening and count
ing the votes Il public sentiment will eN-
| i3t which no nlAu or body o! men with a
sense of accountability will care to resist
and which no party hoping tor a future
can afford tp outrage.
We hold that the majority Of the Senate
OF the mhcd States. partizan as it i, tare
not under the sanclity of thcr oaths, make
oi this q party question, while the very
fate of cur country may be trembling in
the balance. 1t will happen again, rs it
| has happened before, that in the majority
will be found men OF nerve and brain to
act with the minority and prevent great
wrongs For every occasion Providence
raises up the man. When PRESIDENT Grant
under the counsel Of bad advisers, set out
on 4 cafccf OF lOfelgn conquest anu sent 4
fleet to San Domingo, it was Charles sum
ner. one Of the founders of the Republican
party, who stood forth and denounced the
scheme until it was abanuoned-and vet il
was a party measure. When the Republi-
can party sought to uniustly impeach an(
remove President johnson, it was William
Fit Fessenden who gave his influence ant
vote to the opposition, and averted the
scandalous injustice.
Who he may be, or what state he may
represent, we cannot predict-but some
leader. with amind above frauds and trick
cry, will lend his powers aud weight 0
character TO the cause OF right as agains
his party, and that cause will prevail

ccived. After some delay another package was
produced and found to contain consolidated

members of the Board were unable to explain
the matter and Senator Aherman, of the Re-

there was no use to disguise the fact that the

FLORIDA.
The returns in Florida reported TO have been
very nearly completed on Tuesday, the following is
the Associated Press dispatch
The Republican net majority is AZ. Dade county is
not yet in and its majority cannot be 20 either
way. The Democrats have claim Of % omitted
votes in Clay county, which appear the face of the
returns from that county, but not added up In the
general result because it is not in evidence that the
Inspectors and Clerk were sworn. The % votes will
probably be counted by consent. This would
leave majority OF 10 for the Republican Electors.
The county that made the only violent nroad on the
Democratic calculation was Baker. They have a
regularly certified copy OF return from that county
giving Democratic majority OF ninety Tour ms
return wa regular and it was thought final This
morning new return read, signed by the Judge
and Sheriff. bat not the County Clerk, which by the
throwing out of several Democratic precincts gives
a Republican majority of II, making difference OF
rs votes. The Democrats astonshed at this
alteration and will produce the precinct returns to
show that it is not a correct return
Upon completing the counting OF returns, the Board
adjourned until O'Clock Z. Nj.
on assembling of the Board this evening Mr.. Pasco
Democratic counsel, asserted that another return
than the one received had been sent to the Board
from Baker County, signed by the Clerk and a jas
tce and giving a different result. The Chairman
said Baker County not under discussion, but
after further remarks the Secretary without opposi
lion read return signed by the Clerk and justice
giving Tiden % majority. 1t appears that two re-
turns, signed by the Clerk and justice and the
| other by the Judge, Sheriff, and justice were
| sent up,
With the first return counted Tiden Electors haN t
| ~ majority, and With both returns held subject To
| further decision the Democrats have two Electors
| BY majority and one by , majority and the Repub

need be contested, that he final result is still in
