The funeral of the late E. B. Pease
occurred yesterday morning fIom the
NJ. E. church. The building was
crowded during the services, and the
hearse was followed to the grave by a
large concourse of friends of the good
old man, who didn't wish to die yet,
because he believed there was still
much work for him to do in this world.

tits curious how the decision of tie
Electoral Commission just fits the Re-
publican case. 1t is just sufficient to 90
behind the Governors certificate in the
case of Oregon, and get at the facts there.
and not sufficient to go behind the Re-
turning Board frauds in Florida anG
reach the facts in that State; just enough
to let in the facts when they will help the
Republican candidate, but not enough to
let them in when they would sustain the
claim of the Democrats. If the Cover
nor's certificate were held conclusive.
that would make Cronin's vote good in
Oregon. Therefore, the Commission de-
cides that it can go behind the Cover
nor's certificate, and see whether it ac-
cords with the returns. And if not,what
then? Why, of course they would correct
it. So that makes the Governors certifi
cate of no value or import whatever.
But if the returns of the Returning Board
are not correct, what can be done to
them? They cannot be corrected. Though
! the Returning Board decided enormously
on points of law; though it made some of
our noble Stoughton's clerical errors;
though it acted in fraud and conspiracy.
that cannot be corrected, either by the
State, the Legislature, the Courts Con-
gress, or even by the Board itself. The
Commission will not eveninquire wheth-
er the undisputed returns before the Re
turning Board were added up correctly.
All this was necessary to meet the emer-
gency of the Florida case, and provide for
the Oregon case. So Hayes will be count
ed in the first Fraudulent President
Ne1o York Sun.

THIRD EDITION !!
From the N. Y. World. a
PuT'man on Florida

Since Francis p. Barlow, who went to
Florida after election as the representa-
tive of the Republicans of New York,
acknowledged that that State had gone
for Tilden on an honest count, there has
not been such q sensation as that created
by the speech of Congressman Purman
yesterday He is native of Pennsylvania
who, after serving on special duty at the
War Department during the rebellion,
went to Florida in 1865, and there took
part in the organization of the State
Government in 1868. He became success
sively State Senator, Secretary of State,
Assessor of Internal Revenue, and finally
member of Congress. In the campaign
of 1872 he was chairman of the Republi-
can State Executive Committee, and no
man probably knows more of the party
secrets or would be more apt, from merely
prudential considerations to. conceal them
To have such a person stand up in his
place in the House of Representatives
and after fervid eulogy of his party and
an earnest vindication OF the Northern
settlers in the South, declare solemnly, of
his knowledge. that the Democrats car
ried Florida in the last election, is tri-
umph that is worth more to us than the
decision of the committee to the Repub-
licans.
To be sure, the method by which the
tobC Vi buc ntstbe ustS Dteu ChptuIcu lOi
Hayes is confession that he has no
honest claim to it; for the Republicans
would never have consented to rest their
title on mere technicality had they not
been conscious that there was nothing
| sounder to base it on They virtually con-
fess fraud and claim that the forms OF
law have made it successful. But Pur-
| man confesses fraud specifically and re-
fuses to accept responsibility for it by
| sharing in its fruits. He acknowledges
that the Republican party of Florida
went into the election with everything ia
| its favor; that peace was faithfully pre-
served, and that the party was fairly
beaten, He cannot assume any part in
the dishonest effort that has been made to
| overturn the true result of that election
This is his protest:
"I love the principles of the Republi-
can party, and for their sake have been
singed by the fires of martyrdom, and
believe in the ultimate triumph of its re
generated mission; but cannot return
the face If. standing upon this floor, and
in the presence Of the American peopl,
anxious and entitled to know the whole
truth concerning this dangerous Presiden
tial issue, should shrink from the re
sponsibility of doing justice to my State
and defending her honest political victor,
against the wilful perversion Of n bold
dishonest and unscrupulous State Can
wasting Board, The Tilden electors wer'
truly elected ia Florida, and only b,
ways that are dark and tricks that il
this case have not proved to be vain
| were these electors and majority of tn
people of the United States defraude'
out of their fair and lawful victory"

The Electoral Commits

Before the electoral commission yes.er-
day ex-senator Carpenter concluded a
powerful speech on the facts underlying
the Louisiana case. Incidentally it was
keen and strong arrainment of the CON-
mission for the narrow and technical
course of procedure which it had adopted
and shaving that unless the case were
heard and adjudged on its merits the de-
cision of the tribunal, whatever that
might be, would not be satisfactory to
public sentiment. Ex-senator Trumbull
took up a somewhat similar line of argu-
ment. He proposed 10 go into the eVi-
dence, cited what the democratic side was
prepared to prove, including the want Of
provision in Louisiana for the choice of
electors, and asked that the evidence be
admitted. The speeches of Messrs. Car
penter and Trumbull were so forcible in
showing that the commission ought to re-
ceive evidence as to the validity of the OBJ
jections which had been set forth as tie
ground of contest, that, under the pres
sure thus put upon it, and after long
discussion, in which commissioners and
counsel participated, it was finally decid-
ed to hear arguments on the subject, and
agreed to give the speakers for this pur-
pose two hours time in addition to tie
four and a-half hours granted en-
Tuesday, with permission to combine the
argument of the case proper with the ar
eument on the admissibility of evidence
| If counsel thought fit to do so-leaving
open to the commission the final determi-
nation whether to receive evidence or
not.
A brief was then filed by Messrs. Trum-
bull, Hoadley and Green attacking the ell
igibility of Levisee and Brewster as cleo
tors for Louisisna on the ground that
they held offices Of trust under the gov
ernment at the time of their alleged ap-
pointments as electors. Mr.. Trumbull
then took up the argument to show why
evidence should not be admitted. H
was followed by Mr.. Stoughten in oppc-
sition, and also by Mr.. Shellabarger for
the republican side, who, though the
question was that of admissibility Of evil
dence, went into argument on the Louis
lana statutes, admitting that they so con-
ficted as to admit of doubt in the ma.
ter of the choosing af electors, but hold
ing that the tribunal should construe il
favor of the intent to elect. He also pass
ed in review other points, and when he
concluded the commission adjourned un-
til to-day.

Future Presiden tial Elections.

The duty of the hour, rs pertinently
suggested by the New York Express, is
not only one of present protest, but to
insist upon some kind of legislation or
amendment to the constitution which
will forbid the repetition of the wrong
about to be imposed upon the American
people. If Henry Clay, Silas Wright
and Felix Grundy had followed up the
recommendation of their report made to
Congress in 1887 respecting ineligible
electors by some practical legislation we
should have no such cases as those now
before Congress and the electoral vote
commission, Let us have at least an
amendment to the constitution or some
undisputed legislation which win make
impossible repetition of the dangerous
crisis of the past few months.
