that he would have started in the teeth Of the

mander Ryan lost his reckoning through a do

WHEN the Commission was appoint
ed, many who felt that possibly the
/ Democracy had occasion for orgreivance
acquiesced IN the measure though not
believing in it, and from a conviction
that the Democracy would honestly
accept the decision OF the Commission.
Its failure 10 do so has opened their
eyes TO the thoTouS. want of principle
IL tia organization. Nothing could
Je more petulant and childish than the
course oI those IN Congress, who have
been striving TO retard the count by
futile objections to tie votes Of States
Pennsylvania for instonce-for which
there was not a shadow of excuse.
They are reYolutionists, and the people
recognize the fact. But all their rev
oiutionary schemes will fail, as, if the
count is delayed by their fillibusting
until Saturday, the President of the
Senate will then assume the authority
of which he has been deprived by the
act creating the Commission, open the
remaining certificates, and have the
count completed.

NO REVOLUTION.

Despite the appointment of the Com
mission and its ready performance OF
duty, the Democracy are trying 10 pre-
vent the count of the vote until after
March 4th, hoping thereby TO prevent
the Inauguration of Hayes. They
have the will TO do this thing but IN
fortunately for them the Constitution
stands in the way and imperatively
commands that ''the President of the
Senate shall, in the presence of the
Senate and House of Representative
open all the certificates, and the cOtt
shall then be counted" The House
may disregard the law passed for the
express purpose of meeting the exist
ing emergency, and may refuse to per
form the duties imposed on that body
by the Constitution, but the President
of the Senate cannot avoid his sworn
duty. He must "open all the certifi'
ca.es' and see that the vote is then
counted.

would bemean and besmear SO pure
an administration as the American
people have enjoyed ior The past eight
years, with such anathema's and such
language ss the leaders OF the Demo
cratic party have applied TO President
Grant administration. But why waste
wordsi They still cry for more money
and resumption, as if initiation and re-
sumption could.go hand in hand.
We often hear tie question what is
resumption. We understand that to
resume is TO return to our former basis,
or return to the position formerly oc
cupied. To resume does not mean to
do away with all circulation of paper
as legal tender, neither does it mean
to reduce commerce TO the Use of gold
and silver exclusively 1t IEeans TO
return to specie basis by making cur
rency worth the same as silver and
gold. The premium on gold at the
present is hut little over live cents on
the dollar. Ii is well known that in
fiation raises this premium and that
contraction reduces il. hen it follows
that the retirement OF few millions
of greenbacks at the present or in the
near future, will put currency on a par
with gold, and resumption will be at
tanned. The issuing OF legal tender
notes was necessitated by the rebellion
and as a war measure was perfectly
justifable But who is responsible for
the wal! One glance into the history
Of the past, will suffice to convince any
discerning mind that the war did not
originate in the Republican party.
Why then should the Democratic par
ty denounce President Grant for the
presentation and advocacy of meas
ure which viii! soonest and best secure
