The Local Interest in the Returns

There was an intense interest i'll the
returns as received at this place; the
cloScncSS of the contest making the re
suit all the more exciting. The tele-
graph office was besieged until a late
hour Tuesday night, but there was
hardly enough to give either side as
Suance: vet the Democrats were the
most jubilant. Wednesday morning the
dispatches favored Hayes, but later in
the dav news came that the National
Repuhlican Committee and the New
York papers conceded Tilden's election.
when the Democrats were again .lubllant
and prepared to burn powder. and do
various other things. At SIX O'Clock,
however. Il despatch came that Hayes
WIS elected by one majority. The Re
publicans took heart again, and the
Democrats were correspondence de-
pressed Thursday morning, another
dispatch was received, that the Repub-
licaus claim five of the six doubtful
states Nevada only to he heard from.
Although this was slender thread to
hold upon, Il good many were supported
by il. and faces grew short, and not Il
few believed that Hayes was elected
President.

The Republican State Committee will
recollect, us will many others, that Al
the State Convention of the party al
Burlington last March, to elect dele
gates to the National Republican Con
vention, and to nominate electors al

from Hardwick, both claiming to be
Republicans. One set was allowed to
sit-John Bridgman and H. o. Stone
while of course the other was rejected
The above named persons lin reply to

committee setting forth that they
Bridgman and StOne-were not Repub-
licans and were not elected as such,
stated that they We're Republicans and
had been since the party was formed
four years ago, they had done nothing
more than other Republicans had, and
under the call of the state committee
they were entitled to seats. Now how
do these modern Republicans turn out
As soon as Tilden and Hendricks are
nominated. they blow for them. At
the September election, both vote for
Bingham for Governor. and last Tues
day both voted for Tilden and Hen
bricks. Men so utterly void of common
honesty or honor deserve the scorn and
SCOTS of all honest men, forcing them
selves into the town caucus where they
had no right to he, and taking seats in
the State Convention. Sailing in a
piIatical craft, under false colors, they
have forfeited the respect of both parties
as they deserve.
