S0SAY WE,
Senator Conklings Speech in the United States
e Senate January 4th, 1871

[senator Conkling's Speech in the United States
Senate, January 4th, 1871
Obedience to law, the Observance of
the Constitution, and the maintenance
of truth, is not party question or pro-
ceeding. It is beyond party and above
party. Parties may contend, and be-
iieve it wholesome ia free government
that parties should contend, over mea-
sures and candidates. But when the con-
test has been submitted to the ballot-box
the final arbitrament of popular contests
known in our system, the only duty, the
only lawful proceeding connected with it
which remains is to find an honest true
resolt, to declare it, bow to it and stand
by it, That is the duty of the hour 1t
rests on the two Houses of Congress, it
rests on the nation, it rests on every citi-
zen Of the Republic. Thatlit will be done
and done peacefully, decently and in or
der, these petitioners do not, | think, dis
believe. They, in common with all men,
may derive confidence from the fact that
interest and expedienoy, not less than
patriotism and honor, point in one di-
rection and teach one lesson. That les
son is: "Whoever stands on truth and
right shall not fall; whoever stands on
falsehood and wrong shall be over
thrown" t.;.,..,.t a.

ted if he was elected. The words we got
Immediately after the speech from "a.
pable gentleman who heard Mr. Martin,
and who yet claims his report correct
We give Mr.. Martin the benefit of his de-
NAL but we remember that he claimed
Hayes's election right along after the No
vember election, as the conspirators
at Washington and elsewhere did. In
our conversation with Mr.. Martin, who
is fresh from Washington, and no doubt
posted as to the designs of the leaders
there, he exhltingly declared that Grant
says, "let the proper authority declare
who is elected, and | will see that he is
inaugurated." We informed Mr.. M. tLat
as we understand it, President Grants
term of Office expires at noon, March 4th,
1877, and he is then private Citizen
No doubt Mr.. Martin, like the rest, wants
to hold on, but good citizen cheerfully
acouesces in the verdict Of the People
This verdict cannot be set aside or re-
versed by fraud, Returning Boards or
their fellow conspirators.
We should like to enquire of Mr.. Mar
tin, and as Grants time is short he need
not conceal now" if he, Grant, is not
"drunk all the time" now, as he was at
the time of his removing Bristow from
the Treasury Department. To Mr. Mar
tins credit we believe he was friendly to
Bristow and desired his nomination at
Cincinnati, rather than that of Ruther-
ford. Bristow undoubtedly is man of
positive points Of character, and on that
account would not suit the Camerons,
Chambers. Shermans, &C., as would one
more pliabe.

SCOUNDRELS PROTECTED AT
WASHLNGT0N% nt

A few days ago Congress abolished the
Board of Police Commissioners at
Washington by unanimous vote in
both Houses. II seems these ex'officials
protected gamblers and other criminals {;
but the villainous conspiracy Of w J,
Murtagh, the Presidentof the Board and
proprietor of the Administration organ,
to blast the good name of the Hon. w.
c. Whiuhorne, while investigating the
corruption of the Navy Department was
too atrocious to make defence possible.
Grant had requested the resignation
of the Board probably for two reasons,
one because they allowed testimony to
be taken rejecting upon his own con-
duct in betting at a race course and
secondly, because he wanted a vacancy
in the office of Chief Of Police, in order
that he might appoint Guerrilla Mosby
to the place, -
The Board resigned, but Grant retain
ed Murtagh, who was the most objection
able and guilty Of them ALL and then ap'
pointed four new members Congress,
however, acted at once and swept the
Board away, SO far as they can The
President has not signed the bill, but has
commissioned the new Board and that
too. when the investigation is going on
as to Murtagh's conspiracy to ruin Mr..
Whitthorne. 1t sthought that Robson,
Secretary of the Navy,js mixed in the
business, directly or indirectly,
The special committee of the House
investigating the Board of Police last
week, elected a very straight story from
Major Richards, Superintendent of Police
that he had been approached by Muir
tagh, President Of the Board, to carry
out plot to destroy the moral reputa
ton of Representative Whitthorne. The
Congressman was to be decoyed to a
disreputable house and then arrested,
and only released on condition that he
would "let up" on the naval investiga-
ton into Secretary Robeson's misdeeds.
The detectives pretended to join in Muir,
tagh's game, but in reality did not do
SO. There is an odor Of knavery about
Secretary Robson that justi6es the i'm
preston he was party to Murtagh' S

THE New York EVeHtng Post of Tues.
day drops from the fence, and rejects
the preposterous claim that President
Ferry has any power over the electoral
count, The Post says:
Indeed, but for the doubt in which the
close vote for the rival candidates leaves
the present election, there would, in our
opinion. have been no question of the
sole power of the two Houses to keep in
their hands the authority to examine
and count the votes for President and
Vice President of the United States
There is therefore no alternative left for
the two houses but to proceed as they
have hitherto done in exercising the con.
stitutional and traditional power in count.
ing the votes. The party which seeks to
depart from it, and to substitute the de.
cision of the presiding officer of the Sen.
ate for those of Congress, ventures on
dangerous, not to say fatal, expert
ment.

SECOND DANIEL RISEN 10
JUDGMENT.

Before the Congressional Investigation
Committee now in Louisiana, there APP
peared witness, Rev. Thos. Brown, col
ored, president of Democratic club, who
was knocked down three weeks before,
and was not permitted to preach because
he was Democrat, and who lost by the
rascally Freedman's bank $1,400.
Mr.. Morrison of Illinois questioned
him thus:
"Give your own opinion, say as to Gov.
Wells of the Returning Board for in
stance"
Witness--"Oh Lord don't ask me
about him, He robbed me of $50 once
when he was Mayor"
This man Wells was removed by Gen.
Sheridan, and denounced by him as dis
honest, and yet has held ia his palm the
empire of our rights. and the decision,
the bogus returning boards decision that
Tilden must be counted out and HAYES
counted in. Honest Republicans cannot
afford to stultify themselves, or debase a
whole nation, by shutting their eyes to
the iniquitous frauds of this wretch
Wells, puppeted by Zach Chandler. "He
robbed me of $50 when he was Mayor"
and progressive robber that he is, he
would rob a whole nation Of its choice
for President.
