CHANDLER SHOWS urs HAND.

William Z. Chandler Is q nsar rsla.
tive Of Zachariah Chandler. late Sscrs-
tary OF the Interior. through whose in.
fusucs rs Chairman OF the National Re
publican Committee. hs 70 made Sso-
rotary Of that body. OF courss In that
position hs Is supposed to know Of all
the transactions Of the Committee. pub
lie aud private; and he must. In con.
junction with the Chairman. have taken
IN active part in all these transactions.
II any corrupt msa were used BY the
Committee to carry the recent election.
or 10 by any fraud they succeeded in
cheating the people out OF the lsgiti-
mate results Of their votes. these two
msn more than any others NJ primarily
responsible for the corruption and the
fraud. and are amsnabls to the criminal
law. The money 70 corrupt must have
been furnished through them. and the
after frauds must have been manipula-
ted by them. These are premises which
every reader with the slightsst knewl.
edge Of tho methods adopted by Politi-
clans will readily admit.
Now IN this william Z. Chandler
with the Democratic war vhoop OF
"fraud r. "fraud Z" He addressed the
voters Of New Hampshire on wsdnss-
day. On the second Tuesday OF March
next there is to be an election in that
State. and the disaffsctsd Republicans
have already opensd the campaign. The
object Of Chandler was to prove that
President Hayes by his appointments
and Southern policy had betrayed his
party. But he did not stop here. lie
boldly affirmed that Mr.. Hayes WA not
elected. but counted INN other
words. that the legally appointed Prssi-
dent Of these United States Is Samuel
]. Tilden. and that Hayes is u fraud and
n hypocrits. We believe that this man
Chandler 10 the only Republican who
has gone thus far in venting his spite
against the Chief Magistrate Of the
nation.
The utter falsity OF the charge il APP
parent on its face. II II were true this
man Chandler. who is in reality bat the
mouthpiece Of Zach Chandler. would be
the last TO utter 1t. II II Do true he and
his uncle can be criminally held as prin.
cipals in ono Of the most stupsndous
swindles Of the ninetsenth century. II
Hayes was counted in. it was not by
Congress, for they simply took the duly
certified returns. II was not by the
Electoral Commission. for they simply
decided according to the law which
,eers the duly certified returns. II
was by msans OF fraudulent re-
turns from the different States.
which this man Chandler manipulated
through the Returning Boards. lie
knows that his infamous charge Is soi
true. and therefore he darss to utter IL,
in tho hope Of influencing New Hamp-
shire Republicans against the President.
and perhaps catching q few renegade
Democratic votes.
The motive for tho detection Of the
Chambers IL very apparent. Zach
Chandler has been accustomed for many
years to control the patronage Of the
Administration. and he has come to re.
gard the President as only . machine to
be played upon to suit his fancy. lie
expected to use Mr.. Hayes In the same
manner. but that gentleman very soon
gave him to understand that rs he was
elected President. he proposed to DO
President. Tho old man got angry and
left Washington with the usual oath on
his lips. He has ever since been in
reality the head and front Of the oppo-
sition faction in the Republican party,
but this 10 the first time he has plainly
shown his hand. II the words Of his
nephew have any effect upon the voters
Of New Hampshire, We have very much
mistaken the character Of hsr people.
