following proclamation extraordin-
ary was issued by J. G.. Thompson
this evening, and bulletined in front
of the Democratic headquarters in
this city:
"The claims of the leading Re
publican newspapers and commit
tees, to the effect that Hayes is elect
ed, is without foundation and con-
spiracy to usurp the government. 1t
is a revolution. It is the despera-
ton of desperate men. 1t will all
fail. The people have declared by
their ballots that 1'ilden is elected
President by 2O3 electoral votes, and

their voices. expressed at the ballot
box, shall be respected. Be patient
and wait the retributive justice that
will surely fall on the heads of the
men who are divising a conspiracy
to break up this republic"
