PEACEFUL STATEs.-Democratic ora
tors think they have made good point
when they point to such States MS Arkan-
sas, and tell how peaceful they are under
Democratic rule But they are careful
TO avoid telling why this peaceful condi-
ton. If, as in Georgia, the Republicans,
white and black are 50 cowed that they
do not attempt to vote, there is no need
of further intimidation. When a State
once gets under Democratic control it is
easier to keep it 50 than It was to make
it 50. That is the reason of this condi-
ton. Georgia rolls up $4,000 Democratic
majority. There is no fear that Repub-
Leans can overcome such odds, so the
few OF that party who care to go through
the farce of an election are kindly per-
mitted to do SO quietly. With many of
the negroes the ballot is a thing of the
past, right they hold but dare not exer-
else. Others have been bribed or bullied
or starved into voting with their enemies,
and the weapon given them for their
protection is used to rivet the chains of
oppression more firmly upon their limbs.
But it is not altogether true that so
peaceful a state Of society exists in every
Democratic State. In the month of Au-
gust a saturnalia of crime held carnival
in Texas, and Hamburg and Coushatta
were equ0led, if not eclipsad by the
scenes of Eagle Lake and Decatur. In
the language Of the Austin Statesman, a
Democratic paper, murder is daily on
the increase and in portions of the State
whole communities are given over to the
work of blood" And another Demo-
cratic paper, the state Gazette, calls on
Governor Coke to exhaust every power
to ferret out these horrd atrocities, and
pertnently asks if he desires the success
of Iilden and Hendricks. But no South
ern gentleman would "kill negro"
according to Mr.. Henley. 1t is the out
laws of society, the low creatures. But
why are not these outlaws brought to
justice Democratic speakers may try
to gloss over these horrors, but they will
rise against them There is lawess
! element in some of the Southern States
that can be controlled in only one way
by the stern hand of justice. The moral
support of their communities is either in
sympathy with these elements, or else is
utterly powerless to control them.
Weekly Trinity journal., 1876-10-21

CONFEDERATE CLAIMs.-Nono Of the
Democratic speakers who have visited
this place have treated the Southern
claims with that candor which we have q
right to expect of the champions of re-
form" The Republicans do not say that
these claims are part of the war debt of
the Conledcracy, nor that they are for
cmancipatcd slaves. Those two classes
OF debts are barred by the 14th Amend
ment. Bat claims outside of these, bas-
cd upon every conceivable ground are
prepared for presentation, some Of them
in fact already before Congress, and
amount in the aggregate to a sum great
or than the national debt. This class of
claims is not barred by the Amendment
referred to. According to th bill before
Congress TO prescribe procedure in the
case of claims of this character, (Which
are becoming too numerous for Congress
10 deal with,) the oath Of the claimant
and one other reputable citizen, shall be
deemed sufficient proof of the justice of
the claim, and is all the evidence requir-
ed to be adduced before the United States
Court having jurisdiction. And no one
can know this fact better than Messrs.
Luttrell and Henley.

OHIO AND INDIANA.

We have at last enough definite news
of the elections in Ohio and Indiana to
draw conclusions as to what will be their
verdict in November. They are such as
to justify Republicans in the belief Of the
further triumph Of the grand principles
which guide their party. The Buckeye
State, notwithstanding the local questions
which mingled in the canvass, has rolled
up majority which shows or which side
she will range herself in the great con-
test so soon to follow. Aside from the
! triumph Of the State ticket the gain of
/ five Congressman indicates that where
national principles are concerned the peo-
Pile are alive to the importance of the
contest.
In Indiana substantially the same re-
suits have been obtained although the
Democracy have carried the State ticket
But in the case of Indiana it was death
struggle on the part Of the Democracy
ii they lost Indiana they lost all, with the
Republicans it was but the loss of one
State, and that State more uniformly
Democratic than Republican. Hence
the prodigous efforts made by both par
ties, the one to wrest--the other to retain
the prestige of victory in the Hoasier
State. The Democrats have, through
the aid Of the Greenback" party re
tanned control of the State government,
but the prestige of victory is with their
opponents. The Republicans have gam
ed four members Of Congress, showing
that the people of Indiana, like their
Ohio brethren have no idea of surrender
ing the National government into the
hands Of its enemies, have carried both
branches of the Legislature, and have re-
duced the Democratic majority Of 1874
from more than II 600 to 5,494.
If this is the kind of victory for Dem
ocrats to rejoice over, they are entitled to
the cred: of being able to extract conso-
Iation from very small source. -Four
years ago the October election of India
thousand majority, but that verdict
was reversed in November and Grant
carried the State by $4,000. II Demo
cracy are only able to hold one of their
own States by a meager vote where by
all the rules of political warfare they
should have maintained their prestige
before the people, in the Legislature and
in the Congressional delegations, it aug
urs we'll for triumph OF the true princi-
pie in the campaign to follow.
The legitimate consequences of the
Democratic programme are beginning to
develop. Their boast Of being able to
carry United South and the means
they are taking to make that boast true
one, are awakening the people to a sense
OF the situation in which a Democratic
national triumph would leave tie coun-
try. And if the Presidential election is
fought on sectional lines in this Centen-
nial year we have only to thank Demo-
cracy. Alabama, Arkansas and Geor-
gia have led off the Democratic column
with majorities indicative of what the
Southern vote will be in November, but
on the soil consecrated to human free
dom from The beginning the voice OF the
people is still for the grand party of lib
erty and progress. Maine, Vermont,
Connecticut, Ohio, Indiana and Colorado
each have spoken, and their words wil.be
rc-echoed in November by the nation.

ABOUT POsTPoNEMENT.-Mr Henley
says the JOURNAL is mistaken in calling
certain expenses Of government which
were cut down by the Democratic House
merely postponements." The with
holding of appropriations which necessi-
tates the discharge of five thousand en-
ployes, he says, is "no postponement."-
Certainly not, provided these employees
were useless ones But if the conduct of
public affairs is crippled by these dis
charges in such manner as will require
an additional host of employees to bring
up the business, is not that " merely post
ponement ?" And that such i. the case is
patent to every reading man. The Post
Office Department is weakened so that it
cannot return dead letters to their writers
and other Departments are in a. bad fix.
This is not the kind of reform " the
people want.
Weekly Trinity journal., 1876-10-21

FALSE Economy Among the appro-
priations cut off by the Democratic House,
mas one of $4,000 for the examination of
rebel archives. These archives were cap
tured soon after the fall of Richmond and
the examination of them has thrown
great light upon the Southern Claims, and
has already been the means of saving
millions of dollars to the Government.
Where SO many millions of dollars of
these claims are being prepared for pres
entation, the archives would throw much
needed light upon the antecedents of the
claimants. Among those having claims
in the list there are said to be several
who were jaiIors, guards and officers in
charge of Libby, Andersonville and Sal
isbury prisons, yet the desire to make a
cheap reputation for economy, il not per
haps to favor these claimants and let them
get their clutches into the Treasury, has
led to this safeguard being swept away.
Weekly Trinity journal., 1876-10-21

UNION Men FOR TILpEN.-The Dem
ocratic press and speakers place great
stress upon the fact that some who were
Unionists and early Republicans are for
Tilden. Mcclellan leads the military
and Charles Francis Adams The civil
list. Now this only proves one thing
that certain prominent men after fighting
the rebellion and the Democratic party
have turned around and are trying to
undo their own work, like the COW in the
fable, which gave large bucket of milk
and then kicked it over. 1t is no argu-
ment for a cause that any man is for it..
In country where freedom of opinion is
permitted, it is to be expected that men
will change their views. And it is a
poorer argument when the men are of
the Mcclellan stripe who affiliated with
Democracy while the rebellion was in
progress.
Weekly Trinity journal., 1876-10-21

ABOUT SAMBo.-Mr. Henley, in his
speech Monday night walled because the
Republican speakers and writers had so
much to say in reference to the negroes
and the treatment they were receiving.
And he had hoped to get through an cleo
tion without Sambo playing the leading
part. As Squeers says Here's rich
ness" The niger" has been the sta
Pile of Democratic oratory for the last
twenty years, and the length of his heel, !,
the crooked shins, bow-leg, woody head
and thick lips of the unfortunate descend
ants Of Ham have been enlarged upon Mt
every Democratic meeting since 1856. 1t
certainly is ggravating to have that pre-
cieus plank stolen from their platform,
but when Henley admits that his party
will steal private correspondence it must
expect to lose little in the same way.
Weekly Trinity journal., 1876-10-21
A SAMPLE ARGUMENT.

Mr.. Tilden was elected Governor
lie at once began to look into the conduct
of public affairs, and by cutting off use
less expenses here and there reduced tax
alton in the State of New York nearly
fifty per cent"
Such is the substance OF a statement
made by Hon. Barclay Henley in the
meeting Of Monday night. If this state
mcnt were literally true it would be an
argument in favor Of Mr.. Tilden's elec
tion very hard to controvert. 1t would
bo simply unanswerable.
Now then les see," what are the
facts ; how much foundation Mr.. Henley
had for making the statement. NON f.
whatever. M. 1Uden Mcrer Sdred q
doiidy in the way of taxation to the peo.
pie Of New York. How are the true fig.
ures
In 1873 the State tax of New York was
six mills, divided as follows Schools Ia
mills; general purposes, rs mills; bounty
debt, . mills canal debt, Ia mills
canal awards, l-5 mill; deficiency and
asylums / 20 mills. This year the levy
tor schools and general purposes is the
same, but the bounty debt is 50 neal
paid of that it required only tax of q
mill TO pay it. Therefore Mr.. Tlden
saves nothing-the taxes are nearly
fifty per cent lower because the bounty
debt of over S20,O0O,O0 has been all
paid off under the four years of Republi.
can rule except about three fourths of q
million dollars. The claims Of Mr.. Til
den and his friends that he has reduced
taxation to the extent of fifty per cent
are totally false and without any founda
tion whatever. This is fair sample Of
Democratic argument. 1t is only through
misrepresentation that they can hope t.
succeed and they follow it up with per.
slstcnco worthy Of better cause.
Weekly Trinity journal., 1876-10-21

GOVERNOR WOODS. The Ex- Cover
nor of Oregon must be bitter pill from
the manner in which he is spoken of by
the Democratic press and speakers. He
was denounced in the Democratic meet
ing on Monday night as the champion
talsifer of the Pacific Coast" What
end is to be gained by this kind of whole
sale dcnunciation we do not know, unless
it be to keep Democrats from going to
hear him. Our advice is to hear all sides
first and judge afterwards, but if Woods
can outlie the Democratic speakers who
have been here, he ought to be hung on
a cherry tree with Il box of hatchets tied
to his heels.
Weekly Trinity journal., 1876-10-21

A QuEsrIoH.-The Democrats say
that the assumption Of the Confederate
debt is barred by the l4th amendment
But it is only within short time that
Democrats admit the amendments to be
binding. When they were being acted
upon by the States the Democratic party
held that they could not be legally rati-
fled that the assent Of three-fourths of
the States was necessary, and that this
assent has not been legally obtained in
nll the States. IT suits Democratic pur-
poses now to take the other view, but we
believe that if that party once gains full
control Of the government there will be a
desperate effort made to bring the ques-
tions before the Courts in such a manner
as to have the last two declared null ard
void.
Weekly Trinity journal., 1876-10-21

Too BAD.-The "Republican Commit
tee, (says Mr.. Henley in order to con
eeal the issues of the canvass have for
bid their speakers to meet with Demo
Gratis in joint discussion" 1t might have
been more candid in Mr.. Henley if he
had said that himself and Governor
Woods held a joint discussion at Suisun,
and that the result of that was not par
ticularly agreeable to those on Mr.. Hen
lcy's side Of the question.

the Sun threw out bulletins that Til.
den was without doubt the nation.
choice, and the Herald had every.
thing lin doubt. All the afternoon
Thousands Of men, acting more like
demons than human beings, shouted
and cheered and shouted again, a,
new returns were exhibited. The
evening newspapers sent out extra.
every half hour. Men rushed from
their places Of business to the streets
and the gamblers thronged the pool
rooms to hedge and make new bets.
The crazy throng in Printing House
Square was increased to multitude,
and there was the widest enthusiasm
for both candidates. Both parties
confidently elaine the election. AT
FIVE o'clock the Times was sure for
Wisconsin, Louisiana, Florida, Cali.
fornia, South Carolina, Oregon and
Nevada. and the Tribune followed
suit. The World and Sun continued
to put up reassuring bulletins, and
every crumb of comfort for either
side was received with terrific yells.
Such was the situation up to the
close Of the week both parties claim
ing the three States. On the result in
these States therefore hangs the elec'
ton Of either Tilden or Hayes. 1t il
useless to listen to further reports, al
the result can only be determined by
the official count of votes. This may
not be known for some days yet, as re-
turns do not come in as rapidly in the
South as in the North. 1t is matter
Of congratulation that with the public
mind so highly excited there have
been no outbreaks Of disorder or tur'
bulence. The pervading feeling Of
each party seems to be, let there be
an honest count and return Of the
vote in each State, and whether it ell
ects Tilden or Hayes we shall be sat
isfied. This is the true view, which
every good citizen, republican or dem
ocrat, will take Of the matter. KeeF
calm. Let us have Peace.
