GENERAL BUTLER'S FORK IN WASHINGTON
The indecent action of the Potter Commit
tee in first refusing to admit any testimony
except for the prosecution, and then giving
itself ND to General Butler to be used IN a
private mud-throwlng operation of his own, is
meeting with the reward it richly merits. The
evidence as to the truth of the charges of in
timidation, which Mr.. Potter refused to re-
ceIve from Secretary Sherman's witnesses, he
is getting unwilingly and Unexpectedly from
his own. Anderson and Weber, by whom he
undertook to prove that the election in the
Felicianas was free and fair, have impeached
themselves so successfully that nothing they
NAV swear to can possibly be accepted with
out independent testimony; while other per-
sons called by the prosecution have fully
corroborated all the reports of violence,
and Mr.. Potter must be well aware that he
cannot impeach his own witnesses. Ex-GOy-
ernor Kellogg was put upon the stand IN tho
expectation that luminosity toward President
HAYES would lead him into some admissions
favorable to the Democratic side, and General
Butler was turned loose upon him, while the
Potter party sat around III hungry expecta-
ton. But the Democrats must regard the re-
suit of his examination thus far with dismay.
For Mr.. Kellogg makes the facts of intimi-
dation and an extensive Democratic conspiracy
to carry by force an election which they could
not carry by ballots entirely clear All the
attempts Of Mr.. Springer to shake his testi
mony were futile; and General Butler,
who then danced into the arena with
the avOwed purpose of showing that
the Presidents reform policy was ridiculous,
accomplished quite as little. 1t must begin to
dawn upon the Committee that in surrender
ing the investigation to General Butler it has
made mistake. That agile practitioner seems
to be working for himself rather than his
clients. He has some grudges to pay off;
but he proposes to pay them off in his
own way. The Committee has wisely
determined now to rest for ten days.
and when it meets again, TO meet by the sea-
shore. In the meantime the Democratic MEM
bers will have an opportunity to reflect upon
the value of the assistance they are getting
from their intractable ally, and to consider
what it is best to do with him hereafter.
During this little period of leisure and re-
fection it win, perhaps, occur to the more re-
