Democrats Are Not Allowed to
Investigate as They Please.

p A Washington Special to the Cleve-
land Herald of Tuesday says that the
Republicans do not propose to elbow
the Democrats to manage the Florida
and Louisiana investigation altogether
in their own way, but propose to take
hand in directing it. Minister Noyes
was on ha nd with cable dispatch this
mo rning Immediately after the com
mittee was announced and tonight
Sherman has sent letter to the com.
mittee in which he takes the aggressive,
charging the Democrats with making
libelOus statements against him. He
says the preamble of the Potter re-
solution in regard to Louisiana con-
tains three propositions, all which are
false, and known to be so by those who
drew up the resolution. These are,
first, that the Republicans of East and
West Feliciana contrlved to stay away
from the polls; second, that the election
IN those parishes was free and fair, and
that Anderson and Weber, supervisors,
made false statements about it; third,
that the Returning Board illegally and
fraudulently threw out the votes OF
those parishes. Sherman says he be.
iieves the letter said to have been
written by him to Anderson is base
forgery, and those VINO have it know it
to be such. Sherman says further that
the whole movement is revolutionary
and intended to depose Hayes; but
though he is q mild'mannered man
the Democrats will find that he will
not be briyen from Office by revolu.
tionary proceedings, except by superior
force. The Secretary favQrs no adjourn
ment of Congress until the Potter com
mittee report, in order that the country
may know as early as possible whether
there is to he serious troubles next
spring or not. The Republicans de-
nounce Randall for packing the com
mittee. The Democrats in it except
Potter. are all very extreme men, aud
he holds extreme views about the
power of the House of Representatives
over the Presidential question. The
RepubiiSshs, except Cox, have been
selected for their supposed hostility to
the Administration. Things will be
lively when the committee get to work.
The Democrats will not have their own
way altogether.

ernment. II we could only get men
who would practice the reforms they
preach, our country would be the rich
est, the happiest, and most prosperous
on earth. 1t will not do to get them
inside of the Democratic ranks, for
that includes the Republicans; and the
Republicans are base and corrupt ger
rymanderers, &c. We must get along
the best we can, and wait for a new
generation Of reformers who under
stand more about practice, even though
they are not such proficient teachers OF

it was finally settled for the term of
