rRESLDENTLlL CONTESTS.

Five Presidential elections in which the vote
of some one State might have changed the
result occurred ont of the ID from 11S9 to
1872. In 1896, when the State Legislatures
chose the electors, Adams had only majority
Of two over Jefferson, the vote being II To
90. In 1912 President Madison was chosen
over De Witt Clinton by 12S to 80. In this
contest the vote of either Pennsylvania (23)
or VireinIa (23) would have made De WITT
Clinton President. In 1924 the full electoral
vote of New-York (3D would have
given Andrew Jackson majority of all TIE
votes east. As it was he received only one
vote from this State, and the election dcyolved
upon the House of Representatives.
The contest in 1914 was exceedingly close.
Polk received 10 votes Clay, 1O5. The loss
of Ncw-Y orl Oh votes was fatal to Henry Clay.
Folks plurality in this State was only
5,1O6-sO that a change of 2,55l votes
would have secured Che election of Henry
Clay, with all its evcntful consequences.
At the sixteenth Presidential election QSls),
the vote of New-York (3D or Pennsylvania
en- would have given Cass a majority over
Taylor. Buchanan won in 1856 by 80 votes.
Without the aid of Pennsylvania he would
have had only 14S notes.-the exact number
necessary TO u choice. Had Pennsylvania gone
Republican in October, his defeat was inev-
liable. Lincoln received in 1860, $50 votes,
against 1913 for his opponents. Notwitlstand-
ing his great plurality, lie needed the vote Of

by the different States for filling vacancies IN
the electoral colleges is of interest. From this
il appears among the four States that have
failed to make provision for filling vacancies
caused by death or otherwise are found
Louisiana and Florida, two of the disputed
States. If Gov. Hayes should be about to re-
ceive the 1S5 electoral votes to which he
seems to be entitled, and one of the electors OF
these four States should die or absent himself,
it is now mere matter of conjecture how the
vacancy would be filed and the single vote
necessary to Gov. Hayes's majority secured.
Th, statement only adds one to the disclosures of
impeTfections in our electoral system of which
we have lately learned so much. The present
pcTplcxing and, IN some respects, threatening
situation will have at least ono good effect III
mpresSing the country with the necessity OF
immediate attention to this subject, and OF
summoniug to its consideration the highest
skill and the purest patriotism.
All the changes which the past forty-eiglt
hours have brought in the political situation
tend only to strengthen the Republican claim
70 the three contested States. In South Caro-
lima Gov. Tilden is found to have dropped
considerably behind Hampton, and the Demo-
Gratis are now claiming a majority of only
100 on the electoral ticket. From Florida
there is little further information that Is ut all
definite. The majority is likely to be so small
either way that the official count will he ncccs-
sary to decide. In Louisiana the Democratic
claims seem to be undated, and the impress
son has gained ground in Washington that
the present purpose of the Democrats Is
to abandon Florida and South Carolina and
make their last struggle i'll louisiana In the
latter State the Republicans are already pre-
fcIring serious charges Of intimidation. They
show that in tho two parishes of East and
West Felciana, where a heavy Republican
vote was pollcd four years ago and counted
by the Democratic Returning Board, now but
one Republican vote has been cast and that
by Republican official. Meanwhile the prom
isa of a fair count continues to brighten. The
list Of prominent Republicans invited to go
South by tho President has been enlarged with
: new list headed by William NJ. Evarts, and
the President has issued orders taking every
pos.ibe prccautiOn against fraud. The begin
ming of the end of the uncertainty Is already
appalcnt. The Board of CanvasSorS OF south
Carolina meets to-day and tho count III that

that Mr.. Chandler has never uttered word
or syllable in the remOtest degree resembling
this. and, on the particular occasion named, We
know he did not.
Mr.. Chandler spent that evening, mp TO the
hour when he started to take the train, at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel, in the company OF a
number of wcll-knOwn gentlemen, discussing
the best means OF procuring such an elective
scrutiny of the Louisiana count by high
minded citizens from the North OF national
reputation, belonging to both parties, as
should make any other result than
an honest count of the votes ac-
maly cast an impossblity. His manner
and conversation were serious. as became
the occasion, and he evidently felt profound
sense of responsibility. He displayed no
brayado AMI showed no other disposition than
an earnest desire to do the best and most pru-
dent thing in critical emergency. To attrlb-
ute such wild and criminal utteranccs to

The nalacs OF the last few parishes, mainly
ia tho Red River country, viii at Cncc sug-
sost TO every intelligent reader some OF the
most bloody and infamous pages in the dark
history of Louisiana. In three of them the
Democrats triumphrd III 1871, and ia three
others reduced the majoritias to almost moth
ing by means of prolonged course Of yio-
lcncc; and though the Republican vote is
vastly increased this year, il Is not yet nearly
what it would be in y fair and free election.
Excepting these, the Republicans carried every
large colorcd parish in 1874, even according
to the Democratic count, by handsome ma
iorties. And all of these counties they have
also carried this year, according to Democratic
admission. by majortics generally increased,
excepting tine five TO which attention is es-
pccially called. Excluding these the other
parishes having colorcd maj0ntics gave Is, 1913
Republican majority in 1874, and by Demo
cratic admission have given 20,SGi Republican
majority in 1876. But the impudcnt claim is
made that the five colorcd parishes which gave
3,9S4 Republican majority in 1874 hayc>now
given 4,4lG Democratic majority, scarcely a
Republican vote having been pOllcd in either
of them.
This is the situation which candid men are
now called upon to consider. We ask that the
returns be impartially compared with the os-
tablshed facts. Is it not manifest that, rs the
five Red River parishes were conquered by
fraud. assassination, and massacre, so five
others have now been seized and the actual
will of the people defeated9 Elsewhere the
Republicans have maintained their strength or
made gains wherever there is cOlorcd ma
iority. In these five parishes the Governor
publicly declares that 10 free and honest cleo
ton was held. Yet the Democrats telegraph
to their friends at the North, as basis for
the claim that they have carried the State,
assertions that in these five parishes they have

The Russian Emperor's speech is decidedly
warlike. He declares that he will require
guarantees from Turkey for the welfare OF
the Christians, and if refused he will appeal
TO arms. He likewise reminds Europe that
Turkey has yielded" to his "demand" fol
an armistice, and pays significant compli-
nJent to the heroic Montenegrins. This decla-
ration may preclude the holding of the pro-
posed conference. Unless the Powers are pre-
pared to sanction the demands which Russia
will make, it will be needless for them to con-
fer. This doubtless accounts for the misgiv-
ings of Germany and Austria.
