The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1876-11-16

Since Saturday morning all the dispat-
ches that have borne any semblance OF
reliability have made it more and more
certain that Tilden has carried the States
of South Carolina, Florida and Louisi-
ana. The Associated Press dispatches,
the A. and P. dispatches and the special
dispatches to the Philadelphia Times,
New York Herald, World and Sun, the
Boston Post, and in fact all the Demo-
cratic and Independent papers in the
whole country have given the vote in all
the States in detail by counties, and all
the dispatches, from all sources, agree
within few hundred votes, and all in
diCate the same result-namely, that Mr..
Tilden has a majority in each of the
States-l 900 at least in South Carolina,
2,O00in Florida, and 5000 in Louisiana.
Opposed to this is the bare assertion Of
Chamberlain in South Carolina, Stearns
in Florida, and Kellogg in Louisiana,
claiming these States for Hayes. Mr..
Bennett, of the Herald, telegraphed to
each of them on Saturday night, as he
did to the leading Democrats in these
States, to send the actual returns showing
the grounds for their respective claims -
Neither Chamberlain, Stearns or Kellogg
deigned to return single figure, but only
reiterated their claims to a majority but
nothing further. Mr.. SimontOn, Charles
ton, telegraphed the detailed returns we
give elsewhere. Mr.. Wilkinson Call, of
Jacksonville, Fla, telegraphed the de-
tailed returns from every county but six,
and fair and liberal estimates from these.
Mr.. Patton, of New Orleans, gave the
vote by parishes in detail, showing
clear Democratic majority of more than
9000
All these things indicate the unques-
ton election of Gov. Tilden, the same
as on Wednesday morning, when nearly
all the Republican papers conceded Til
den's election. 1t was on Wednesday
when Don Cameron and Zach Chandler
after hearing from Chamberlain and
Kellogg, set up the claim that Hayes was
elected by one majority, and all the Ad-
ministration papers were ordered to per-
sist in that claim in defiance of any and
all returns that might come to hand.
This was done for purpose, and we
shall tell what that purpose is Cameron
and Chandler are in conspiracy with
Chamberlain and Kellogg and few 9TH
ers of the more desperate Radical leaders
to throw out the Democratic majorities
in South Carolina, Louisiana and Flori-
da. They prefer revolution to being dis
possessed of office. They have deliber-
ately put the country's peace and sa 'ety
in the balance, and have cast all their
own reasonable ambition against it,
They intend that the people shall choose
between them and a civil revolution, too
horrible in its results even to be contem-
plated.
On Saturday last Don Cameron passed
through this city on his way South, and
we have the best authority for saying
that he directed the editors Of the Com
mercial and Gazette to Keep up the claim
of Hayes's election, and pay no attention
to any returns from the three disputed
States, that they would come all right in
due time.
This is the situation this morning, and
we do not hesitate to say it is grave-nay
more than this, it is threatening. I'm
less the patriotic people, regardless of
party, in all PARTS Of the country, rise in
their majesty and might, and compel
these bad men, these jobbers with the
nations honor, these desperadoes who
are bent on the rule and ruin policy, to
abstain from the desperate plot in which
they are engaged, the consequences will
be terrible. Well may capital trem BILE
in the presence of this menace. We be-
seech all men to be calm-to Danish par
tisan bias and preudice-to bury party
now in the hour Of peril. Calmness and
Judgment here in the North will avert
the storm. The representative men of
both parties, now gone South, if support
ed by Northern sentiment, will prevent
Cameron, Chandler, Kellogg, Chamber
lain and their CO. conspirators from inn
periling the life of the Republic.
We commend to all the words Of warn
ing from the Herald, elsewhere publish
ed. Read them and be guided by them
