Has Changed Its Mind.

The Democrat, which week be-
fore last took grounds against any
measure looking to the ousting of
President Hayes, Topped completely
over to the other side in It's last issue,
and now demands his scalp. 1t wants
the fullest investigation by congress of
the Florida frauds, SO called, and in
sists that if the facts as charged by
McLin and Dennis are sustained, the
President shall be required to surren :,
der his office. There is manifest i'm
propriety, however, in confirming the
investigation to such narrow limits.
and 1t is the duty of congress, if it un-
dertakes to look into the matter at all
to cover the whole ground. We do
not believe that the President or Re-
publicans for him, will object to the
most searching examination, but it
must be conducted for the purpose of
ascertalning the whole truth not alone
In Florida, but in the states of Oregon
North and South Carolina, Alabama.
Mississippi, Florida, Louisiana, Geor
gia, New York, New jersey, and In
diana, with view to unearthing all
frauds, intimidations, cutraees, and
assassinations, that lad affected the
results IN either and all of those States.
1t Is notorious that in all the history
OF this country from the beginning un-
til now, no such corruption, violence,
illegal voting and universal rottenness
has ever been known as was employed
on the part Of Tilden in the campaign
of 1876. If there is to be an over.
hauling it should be complete. Give
the Democrats, who are of an invest;-
eating turn of mind, all they want of
that kind of business. We are conf
dent that the exposure of Democratic
frauds and irregularities which would
follow, would forever silence their
bowls of fraud, and leave President
Hayes in the peaceful enjoyment of
his Office until the expiration of his
term.

has not yet fully appeared, but in
the previous ones they only sue
ceeded in showing that door
keeping does not keep
door. After the experience they
have had in this Congress, with
the trifiing amount Of patronage
belonging to the majority in the
House, they will hardly have the
face to so to the people with critic
isms of Republican administration
of the civil service or boasts of their
own superior qualifications for
choosing Government servants.
And as to their achievements in the
direction of retrenchment, of which
they Boosted SO largely in the last
Congress, the public is now pretty
well enlightened upon the process
and the practical effect of it. To
cripple the departments and embar-
rass. an opposition administration by
cutting down appropriations which
have to be made up afterwards in
deficiency bills, may do for a dodge
for single campaign, but for more
than that it does not pay. The
people understand that business
now too well to be again hoodwink-
ed by it. The only effect of the
cheese pairing economy of this Con-
gress will be to disgust the voters
with such an exhibition OF cheap
demagogism."
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1878-05-15

frauds were attempted and practiced
but this the Democrats were oppos-
ed to, and voted down. Some way
will be found, however, by the Re-
publicans to make the investigation
general, SO that all the advantages
to be derived from it will not be
monopolized by the Democrats.
The latter showed clearly in the
debate Monday that party capital is
what they are after, and not a fair
and impartial statement of facts, re-
CARELESS of whom it may hit. Such
partlzanship and meanness as they
exhibited on that occasion will do
them no good.

\ Breeze In Congress.

There was hot time last Friday
in the House of Representatives
over some bills tor the payment of
certain rebel war claims in favor of
persons residing in Virginia. The
justice of the claims was advocated
and urged on the ground that the
claimants were "loyal" during the
rebellion. Gen. Bragg, of this
state, made a speech in opposition,
in which he said that he did not
believe there was any one in Viz
ginia ''loyaP' in those days-that
the word loyalty in that state then
meant ''loyalty to Virginia'-and
that if it had any other Specification
he failed to discover the fact during
quite a lengthy visit within its do
main during the late unpleasant
ness. Mr.. Thompson, of Penn,
agreed fully with Gen. Bragg, and
insisted that there were very few
loyal men in the South during the
war, and that those few were most
brutally prosecuted by the rebels.
Mr.. Hunton, of Virginia, assumed
great Indignation, and tried to deny
this, but Gen. White, Of Pennsyl-
vania, who had been prisoner in
Libby Prison for sixteen months,
emphatically insisted upon the truth
of the accusation, and cited actual
instances within his personal knowl-
edge. An effort was made to boot
and hiss General White into silence,
but he manfully stood his ground
and reiterated his assertions. The
rebel Brigadiers in the House be-
came furiously excited, and it w as
with difficulty that the Sergeant-at-
Arms could enforce order. Finally
one of the claims bills was laid over
indefinitely, and the other was re-
jected.

Achievements Of Democratic Con.
greSS.

The manner in which the Demo-
Gratis in Congress have conducted
their investigations, and the i'll sue
cess which has attended their efforts
are thus fairly outlined in the New
I DIRK Tribune: "The hopefulness,
boastfulness even, with which they
entered upon their Investigations, is
fresh in the public mind. The re-
suits thus far attained are well
known. The chairman ofthe prin-
cipal investigating committee has
had such singular success in expos
ing his own party friends, and has
made such notable failures in at
tempting to catch his opponents,
that he has already become laugh
ing stock before the country. No
man ever gave his opponents such
endless entertainment and his friends
such constant anxiety and distress.
No Democratic orator can 90 upon
the stump in the coming Congress
slonal canvass with word concern
ing Republican corruption, without
danger of being interrupted by a
call for "Glover" and put down
with inextinquishable laughter.
Their Investigations have done
nothing but kick themselves over.
Their own capacity for administer
ing official trusts, which they hoped
to show in their appointments and
the distribution of patronage, has
been beautifully illustrated in their
Wild attempts to get an honest and
capable doorkeeper for the House.
The result of the last experiment

THE Republican congressional COM

THE Republican congressional COM
mittee is making arrangements for an
active canvass next fall in some of the
Southern states. There are at least a
dozen congressional districts there
which can be carried by the Republi.
cans if they have anything like fair
show, Let the trial be made and the
sincerity of the Southern Democrats be
put to the test. If speakers can go
down there from the North and talk
Republicanism, pure and undefiled,
without having their heads broken,
the fact ought to be known And if
the negroes can participate in these
meetings, and are permitted to vote
the Republican ticket unmolested, aud
their ballots are honestly counted, this
will so far towards demonstrating the
wisdom of the cancellation" policy
and dlsarm much of the present OPP
position to it. There is no doubt that
a fair election there would result in
the return of at least Il or Is Repub-
lcan members of congress, and the
committee should not abandon the eff
fort now in contemplation for a thor
ough canvass. r.

HE democrats, who have had a
great dislike for Postmaster General
Key, were made exceedingly happy a
short time since by tho alleged state
ments of his in IN interyiov that he
had both voted and worked for Tllden:

ed that the President Aimsolf is in.o-
cent of all completely in the affair.

The democrats in congress have
can advisory committee" to which
is submitted all resolutions and bus
mess ola party character which it
is proposed to present, and this
committee passes upon the advisa-
bility and policy of the scheme. If
the committee decides adversely,
the matter is dropped; if favorably,
it is permitted to be introduced.
This course is found necessary on
account OF the small majority the
democrats have, and the many
petty jealousies which exist among
them, not to say the lack of conf
dence in each others sense and judg-
ment, which abounds to a remarka-
BILE extent on that side of the house.
The resolution of investigation into
the alleged Florida frauds has been
in the hands of this committee for
several days, and was finally per-
mitted to see the light last Monday.
1t came up as question of privilege
and was presented by Clarkson N.
Potter of N. Y. The resolution
contemplates an investigation only
of alleged frauds in Florida and
Louisiana. The Republicans tried
to amend it SO as tehave it embrace
other states in which Democratic

A DEMOCRATIC exchange says:
Cali the Republican party has now to
do is to submit to a decent burial, and
pass into history as the party that
brought ruin on its country by ruling
too long" We are afraid ii won't
submit. We suspect it will raise the
liveliest kind of an objection to being
buried. But we're it dead and buried
the doings Of the Democratic House,
with its 100000, 900 Southern war
claims, would make it not only roll over
In its coffin, but stalk forth in ito grave
clothes and give the Democratic party
sound drubbing. The whole army
of dead heroes is on It's track. How
can the living afford to submit to
burial? .'o

JUST WHAT The DEMOCRATS
FEAR.-Let all the alleged frauds in
connection with the last Presidential
election be thoroughly and fairly inves-
tigated, and the result will show that
Hayes was entitled to fifty more cleo
toral votes than were counted for him.
The Republican members of Congress
Will JOIN the Democrats in favor of such
an investigation. Let the facts come
out, not only in reference to Louisiana
and Florida, bat Mississippi, Alabama,
Georgia, North Carolina, Indiana,
Ohio, New Jersey, New York, and
Connecticut also. The truth, the

readers to an eloquent dissertation on

nor the maniness to take a stand
