threatened prosecution for false imprison-

where the federal officer ap-
preached Gen. Hampton, who was in the

crowd from pushing in. Gen. Hampton
Immediately appeared upon the front steps
of the capitol and addressed the crowd as
follow:

THR LESSER HUGGERMUGGFRS.


It is perfectly reasonable presumption that
if the disputed States had not been needed by
the Democratic party they never would have
been claimed. These players, desperately de-
termined to win, began to scream of fraud
almost before the pack was shuied. So eager
were they for success that they could not
wait for boards to begin even the frauds with
which they were charged, for courts OF justice
to pass upon doubtful points of law. or for the
officers of the poll to forward the figures,
whether fair or sophisticated. As the facts
were slowly but thoroughly developed, and as
one State after another slipped away from
them, they took refuge in rhetorical generali-
ties, and proclaimed themselves the worst
used people in the world, simply because they
could not have their own way, and that very
bad one.
We do not desire to anticipate official an
nouncements, but it is extremely probable that
soon the Democrats will not have much to
talk abouts except the outrageous frauds in
Vermont and in Rhode Island. 1t is equally
probable that these querulOus and impotent
protests will next appear in speeches, long or
short, savage or statistical addressed to the
House of Representatives. We must be pre-
pared for this, and reconcile ourselves to it as
best we may. Yet we may possess our souls
in peace. Only now do we begin to com
prehend the safeguards and precautions against
unscrupulous and cunning factions which the
Constitution provides, or which laws, already
venerable, furnish. These ingenious gentlemen
will soon see into what inextricable complica-
tons their sharp practice will lead them, and
will defer their great revenge to the next
Presidential contest.
Mauger threats of revolutionary proceedings,
and the devices of n party in danger OF losing
all the money which it has lavishly wagered,
and the patronage which the election OF Gov.
Tllden would restore to hands 80 long empty,
we advise all good citizens to await results to
be legitimately ascertaned, and whatever the
upshot may be TO acquiesce i'll it with that re-
spect for the decision of the majority upon
which the perpetuity of our institutions de-
pends. If there is anybody who, in this
emergency, has cOgnizaDce of any better way.
he will deserve well of the Republic if he will
advertise that way Immediately. Until they
know whereof they are talking, it would be
better for these Democratic takers to hold
their peace or at any rate to be careful how
they exalt the value of technicalities, the r1gid
assertion of which may leave them poor In
deed
New-York tribune., 1876-11-22

cess above everything else, have themselves
to thank for it.
Neither party comes into court with clean
hands. Not to 90 back to the Plaqnemlnes
frauds in this same State of Louisiana by
which the Democrats defeated Henry Clay III
1914. the same party has furnished repeated
instances continued almost up to the moment
of this writing, not only of the disposition ana
ability of its lower order OF ward iiai'"seis
and small politicians to carry eiec'ionS W
fraud. but of the willingness, we may even
saw eagerness, of its DeSe men anu
most Trusted leaders TO pronI NY '"0
wrong. And as for Gov. llideh peison-
nolly. he may solemnly asseverate thaC Ills
sole desire is for an honest count Oh hohese
holIots and as solemnly disclaim any purpose
or wish to take the Presidency except upon
sucb n declaration, and his friends may put
utter faith in what he says. But here are
hundreds of thousands of voters who are
thinking reasoning men, who remember tnat
Mr. TiIden. as chairman OF the Democratic
State Committee in 1868, III personal superin-
tendence of the machinery of the organiza-
tion. stood by consenting, when, as all the
world now knows, the most extensive frauds
ever known were perpetiated, ana III fuli knowl-
edge of the fact saw, without protest or any
sion of dissent, his patty enter upon the fruits
of tbe GREAT robbery and fraud. These voters
oro NOT TO be blamed if they distrust Gov.
Tilden and his party. Candidate and party
have deserved the suspicion which follows
them. On the other hand, The TRIBUNE has
TOO often castigated the rOgues in the Repub-
lcon party, too often denounced Republican
leaders for this same offense-profting by the
fraudulent and dishonest practices of
its own MEMBERSHIP hold that party
lid as immaculate. In the exercise of its
functions as an Independent journal, and as "A
constant and uncOmpromising hater of false
hood and wrong, it has too often found 1T
necessary to condemn the acts of the Republi-
can Administrations in the Southern States, and
especially in Louisiana, to claim now that they
are entitled to full confidence or are above sus-
picion 1t is the fault of Republican admins
tration that the country does not have full
faith in the honesty of Returning Boards. 1t
is the weakness of that insane polcy-always
opposed by THE TRIBuSE-which upheld the
scampishness of carpet-baggery, which to-day
makes it necessary not only to have national
supervision of the proceedings of the Louisiana
Returning Board, but to have every step in
the process of counting open and above board,
in order to restore public confidence in the
honesty of the transaction. Both parties may
learn, if they will, in this general dstrust OF
them and their method, that, in the long run,
honesty pays better than sharp practice.
