THE WHISKY RING PLAN.

From the q ST the r. gs have
been anxious TO get Hayes IN. Their
fii.t attempt was to vote him u;
the last to connt him in. They failed
ut the frst, and now they begin to
$50 that they are likely to tail in the
second. The third plan is to fill
buster him ip. That is to say, the
Senate is to talk against time, from
he second Wednesday in + bruary
until the fourth of March, when the
now House comes into being. This
new House .to be called together
by The Pre- siden., and the RepubI'-
cans claim to control majority o.
the States will elect Gov. Hayes,
President. This is the au nov
avowed with some thin veil of words
by W. NJ. Grosvenor, editor of the
New York Pubic. o. Mr.. Grosve-
nor himself, It is scare, ly necessary
o say more than that the sveldenc.
adduced in the whisky trial at St
Louis, showed him to have received
money from members of the Ring,
while an editor there, and the ONLY
answer be could make was, that b'
had given his note for the money
and expected to pay il! The Nation
made the caustic remark about this,
that it showed how unfortunate ii
was for r-Reformcrs to have relations
with Rings!
1t is difficult to conceive OF
more dangerous Or dishonist scheme.
Ii simply means that the Republ,-
cans failing in every other mode CT
getting the Presidency, shall steal ii
by means Of parliamentary filibus-
seriug. II Gov. Hayes should gain
the Presidency IN this way, would
there ever afterward DO any security
or certainty about an election
Five times during the last nine
Presidential elections, the Houses
which were to count the electoral
vote have been OF opposite poht,cs.
Has it ever proposed bsf,re that
either of them should, by flihus-
tering, reverse the verdict of ths
people when it did not suit them :!
If this should be done orc@. have
We any guarantee that it will not b,
again? Our Government will ther
be at the mercy of either Huo.s OF
Congress which choose to cheat the
people out Of their rights. Tni
idea 10 about an valuable to societ,
as the invention Of new bur
glars jimmy, or OF new style
brass knucklss would DO. 1t simply
adds one to the many known meth
DDS of political rascal'ty. We wish
Mr.. Grosvcnor and his ring Joy
hia scheme.
