THE RETURNING HOARD.
The Conviction Of Wells ct ais. WIZ Not
Touch MIR. Hayes Title.
NEW OLI.EANs. July IL 1877

New OLLEAEs, July 10. 1877.
Editor Democrat-I I think it worth while to
call your attention to q passage of Senator
Morton's article in the July number of the
North American Revieto. His subject is the
American constitution in so far as it provides
for the election Of the President. At page 10
he says: ~. a4e ssz'9 ..=4-
"Though electors may have been chosen
by violence or manifest fraud, and though
the whole world may know It, their votes
must be received and counted; and there is
no power in Congress or anywhere else to re-
ject such O vote"
This was Morton's doctrine in the to
Commission, 1t is the doctrine of the Repub-
lican party, and Hayes carried it into prac-
tical effect. by accepting the Presidency.
Hence the frauds committed by the Louisi-
ana Returningl BOard-its perjuries and for
geries are immaterial to Hayes. At least
this is his logical position.
Why then should the prosecution of Wells
and the others disturb his equanimity? In a
but legally and officially he cannot, accord
ing to his view, be affected and therefore
should not care whether they are convicted
or not.
ent and repeats without reserve what he said
in and out of Congress during the sessions cf
the commission Provided the vote of Uotlisi-
ana, as cast by the Wells Returning Board
was counted, he did not and does not object
to their frauds and forgeries being made man
ifest to the whole world.
Compare the passage we have quoted with
what Judge Black says at pages Is and 20 of
the same publication, and note particularly
that ruling Of the immortal eight" which
was as follows:
IF q returning board behaves llnfaithfully,
the State herself, by her own authorities,
must see to it and correct the wrong
Thus Louisiana is expressly urged to have
tHs IOrgerS cOvICted and punished. The
prosecution is provoked by the very men who
prOfted by the frauds. Why then should
there be any hesitancy or fear, In the per-
formance of this duty. $**

ANOTHER BLAST AT THE PRESIDENT.
baltimore Sun.1

WASHINGTON, July s.-A full report Of
the remarkable speech made by Gen.
ex- Congressman from Michi-
gan, at Blissfield, in that State, on the
Fourth Of July, has been received here.
The meeting was understood to be one
for Republicans only, and it was known
that the Presidents policy was to be
discussed. Gen. Sherwood was not less
violent In his denun citation Of the Presf-
dent than was Gov. Chamberlain at
Woodstock on the same day. He COM
pared Grant with Hayes Id a manner
exceedingly uncomplimentary to the
latter. Grant, he said, would be called
to the presidency in 1880. ALI of his re-
marks, but particularly the illusions to
Grant, were received with great ap-
plause, and it was said by many OF the
prominent Republicans present that Mr..
Sherwood's views were the views OF
nine-tenths OF the party in Michigan.
These simultaneous attacks on the
President In different sections Of country
indicate concert OF action. Now that
the war on him has been started among
the radical Republicans it Is believed
here that 1t will increase in volume from
now unil the meeting OF Congress.

A STRANGE STORY.
How Two Government Employees Got Rid
of Ugly witnesses.


WASHINGTON, July 10.-Wallace w.
Gordon, a graduate Of West Point;
Henry w. Neil, James r. Neil and An
see, were arrested by the officers of the
secret service, in 1876, for dealing in
counterfeit money. They were indicted
for conspiracy by the grand jury in
Huntsville, Ala, in the United States
District Court. The parties were tried
in April, 1875. Ex. Gov. Parsons, of Ala
bama, was appointed special United
States Attorney to try the case for the
government. The defendants at the
trial were represented by seven attor-
neys. This trial resulted in disagree
ment, the jury standing eleven for con-
viction to one for acquittal.
Soon after this j. 8. Mabry, secret
service officer, who was an important
sinated at Blount Springs, being shot In
the head. About the same time Paul
Boulton, who had testified for the gov
eminent in the trial, was shot at Tusca-
loosa, Ala, and killed. The case came
on for trial again in April last, resulting
in the conviction Of Henry M. Neil and
the Jury disagreeing as to the other de-
fendant. A few days thereafter Thos.
Maxwell, merchant at Tuscaloosa,
who testified in the case, was poisoned
and died. Another witness for the gov
ernment. named Dill, was stabbed and
killed Information has just been re-
ceived at the office Of the secret service
that George *. Davis, the present
Mayor Of Tuscaloosa, Ala, who was an
Important witness in these trials, has

RAILROAD RATES


RAILROAD RATES.
Several meetings of railroad officials have
been held in this city of late on the subject Oh
live stock rates. 1t appears that all the roads
have been cutting rates fearfully on the ship
ment of live stock from Texas to st. Louis,
and from st. Louis East. The object OF the
meetings was to get q schedule OF rates
adopted and hold the roads to it. Chicago is
making all the fuss because st. Louis is
getting all the live stock.
The superior facilities for handling this
class of freight here renders it advantageous
to ship to this point, and hence the increase
in this branch. Chicago objects to this and
has been howling about the roads cutting
rates. The result of the meeting is that q
schedule of rates has been adopted, but the
roads will not maintain it. Competition is
brisk and rates will be cut wherever an oppor-
tuhity to get shipment offers. This is the
advantage of having competing lines.
COTTON SHIPMENTS.
The Cotton Exchange and commission mer-
chants are making active exertions to secure
largely increased shipments of cotton to st.
Louis this year. Heretofore complaints have
proper facilities and low enough rates, and
it is proposed to remedy this, If possible,
this year. By beginning early in the season
they hope to get things in proper shape, but
really very little can be accomplished. The
fact is, st. Louis is trying to get the cotton
from section of country that is naturally
tributary to New Orleans, and she cannot
offer Inducements enough
Last year it was frequently remarked and
commented upon with some wonder that
cotton from Arkansas goes to New Orleans in
large quantities. The merchants here scenes
to think that all that was necessary to pro-
cure this cotton was to build a railroad
through that country. The road was built and
although it labors honestly in the interest Of
St Louis the cotton still goes to New Orleans,
and, no doubt, will continue to go. Well,
perhaps, in a few years more st. Louis will
abandon her efforts to become the great cot
ton market.
