"lildcn Elected" shouts our
neighbor of the Democrat in O giar-
ing plea headline this week, and
goes on to prove 1t by quoting from
Washington telegram as follows:
"Some members Of the Supreme
Court are not over-cautious in their
utterances regarding the Presidential
complication, but speak out boldly
their sentiments, thereby, In the
opinion OF unprejudicod persons, dis
qualifying themselves from acting
impartially on the disputed ques-
tions, II both branches of Congress
decide 10 refer such TO the Supreme
Court for an opinion. AT a dinner
party, given All evening or two since
by Republican Senator, Mr.. Justice
Field took occasion to declare unhesi-
tatingly his belief that Tilden had
been fairly elected, and TO denounce
In severe terms the action Of the
Louisiana Returning Board, which,
he said, could not stand before any
high legal tribunal. lie said the vote
of Louisiana might be thrown out
and Tilden declared elected. The
language was 80 strong as to create
astJnishment among his hearers, and
has since been much talked about by
gentlemen who were preseut at the
time. Judge Field Is Republican"
Now lot II be remembered that this
Judge Field Is one OF the four Judges
who, If the compromise bill Is adopt
ed, will choose the fifth Judge to
complete tho three-cornered court
which Is TO decide all disputed ques-
tion5 M to the electoral count. or
course Judge Field never said any Of
the absurd things accredited to him.
And If he did, and thus disqualified
himself, as asserted, from acting In
the place assigned him by tho bill,
isn't IL little singular that the
Democracy are heraiding his disqual-
incation and yet endorsing the bill?
Knoxville journal. [volume] (Knoxville, Iowa) 1874-1986, 1877-01-24

The Democratic meetings through
out Ohio and Indiana on the Sth inst.
were no very grand affairs. They
were intended to be monstrous dem
opstrations which should frighten
and terrorize President Grant and
the Republican party OF the nation.
The programme was to organize q
terrible gloomy war-cloud which
should by its dark shadow bring
palor to the check and trembling to
the knees of every radical In tho
land. 1t was to make way for Tilden
and clear his road to the White
House of all the radical skirmish and
heavy lines. Ii was to bc grand
display OF wooden guns, and tho rad.
icals were TO be sent scamperIng I'm
dismay 10 their inner works. But
the programme was only grand in Its
proportions as n flzzle. The New
York Herald regards such party
demonstrations as mischievous, and
admonishes Mr.. Tilden and his allies
that Mt this juncture "party feeling
does not need to be stimulated, but
to be calmed."

For forty years after the adoption
of the constitution the President Of
the Senate opened and counted the
electoral votes. fen times this was
done without objection or complaint
about one-man power. Thus were
the votes counted which placed
Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Mad
ison, Monroe and jackson In the
Presidential chair, and now Democ.
racy makes howl about the outrage
and denounce ii as an unwarrantable
exercise OF one-man power.

The Southern Pacific Steal:

davenport Gazette
The reader ca:l hardly fail TO ro-
member the flourish of virtuous re-
solve in relation To railroad grants
with which, the present Congress en-
tered upon its duties. Under this
lead Of Mr.. Holman, the Democratic
members of that body made haste to
place on record their deliberate pur-
pose TO give no support to railroad
subsidies, of whatever character. On
that avowal and pledge they went
before the people. The Reform"
which was their watchward and rail-
lying cry throughout the campaign
was everywhere made to nave spe-
cial application to railroad subsidies.
The Rennhlican ,ssaaalhora Had WELL
nigh ruined the country, tie Dnnn-
cratic orators asserted, by giving
such vast tracts Of landsnch extended
governmental aid to railroads. Not
another acre was to be given, nor am
other dollar voted, nor another bond
issued by the United States in aid of
any railroad under the sun. These
were tho promises made when votes
were wanted for Mr.. Tilden. But
now: Presto change. The Democratic
Railroad Committee of the House
have adopted and will as soon as pos
sible report favorably upon the Texas
Pacific Railroad scheme and, doubt
less, put it on its passage as speedily
and with as little regard to past
promises and pledges. This little
railroad steal is found to be Il party
necessity. The Southern Democrats
are clamorous for it: they must be
appeased. They are hungry and
must be fed. On this point the fol-
i)wing paragraph, copied approx
ingly into Shreveport tLouisiana)
Times from the Washington CORES
pondence of the New Orleans Times,
is Significant;
"The Southern members of Con-
gress are very wide awake this ses-
sion. They have concluded not to
wait any longer for outside help, but
help themselves in the matter of in
ternal improvements. am able to
say, upon the very best authority,
that the South Is unit upon two
questions. The first is that they
mean to have some system of pro-
lection against overtlows for the a.lu-
vial lands of the States ON the Missis-
sippi river. And the second is that
they mean--and IL constant exertion
will do it--they intend 10 have u
Southern railroad across the conti-
nent. They want one which will
give New Orleans, Vick9burg, Mem
phis Savannah and Charleston, direct
communication with tho great ports
on the Pacific. They mean to have
these things. No platitudes about
"the party" will satisfy them. They
believe they deserve some recogni-
ton from the party. They ask these
things-not ns favors, but AZ rights to
which they are clearly entitled. And
they mean to get what they want, or
else--to use the very expressive Ian
guage of that enthusiastic soldier,
Col. Slemmons, NJ g., from Arkan-
sas-'we will rais o h--ll.'n
So to keep these ex.rebels froUl
"raising hip with the Democratic
party the Nation Is to be plundered
at their own sweet will!

Aneye-witnesso of the Bennett May
duel says that by lot the first shot fell
to May. The principals took posi-
tiDn l2 PAGES apart. The pistols were
loaded and handed to them, and the
seconds retired to one side. Then
EcaIne the question, "Are you ready?"
Immediately, and before tho lone"
could be given, Mr.. May raised his
pistol, took hnsty aim and pulled
the trigger, but the weapon missed
fire. On receiving an intimation
that 1t was his turn, Mr.. Bennett
raised his pistol, cried, scornfully, ~
could kill you now, Ii l wished!"
and, pointing ii into the air, fired
quickly. The duelists then saluted
one another, when, suddenly over
come with shame and modification,
to the utmost amazement Of all pres
ent, Frederick May turned and hur-
ried away, unable longer to face his
disgrace.

had drawn pay for their time and
