THE Philadelphia Recorder bill, ofwhich
NJ. 5. Quay, chairman of the Republican
State Committee, is now!enjoying the i'll
gotten fruits, has been brought to the at
tentiOn Of Henry VI. Hoyt, Cameron's can
didate for Governor, in a way which we
fancy he least expected. committee of
citizens of Philadelphia addressed letter
early last week to each Of the candidates
for Governor, asking him whether, in his
opinion, repeal Of the obnoxious measure
would receive executive sanction. 1t will
not be very difficult for Mr. Dill to answer
such letter. because he denounced the
measure as unconstitutional. Before Hoyt
replied to It, he got Hartranft, who signed
the bill, and Quay, the Recorder himself,
each to address q letter to linn lIoyO, in
which they both, of course, defend the bill.
aud Hoyt sends these two letters, together
with brief one from himself, 70 the COM
mittee, as his answer All this is exceed
ingly thin, and Mr.. Hnyt will be taught
that he cannot hoodwiuk the voters Of
Philadelphia by any such red tape process.
The concluding sentence of Quay's letter to
Hoyt in defence of the bill is a curiosity in
its way. lie tells Hoyt that in DO sense
can the bill work any oppression, ''excep.
among The thieves who have been bribiug
public officers, and rObbing the State of
her revenues in years past" This is as
cool as an icicle. coming from ia man who.
under the very bill he is defending. is rob

by the cnmmitteee in their letter to Hoyt,
OF more than $50, ,O00 per anuum."

ALTHoUGH a Greenbacker was elected
TO Congress last week in the Indianapolis
district, and also two in Iowa, it must not
be inferred TINT these results were brought
about purely by the votes Of Greenback
men. Each district was strongly Republi-
can, and the Democrats made no nOmina-
tiUns, but as a general thing voted for the
Groeuback candidates. If they had not
done SO. but bad voted for men Of their
own party, there would have boon no
Greenback Congressman elected in either
OF the two States. With Democrats it was
a choice between two evils, and !hey chose

The Pittsburgh Post says that the

slander upon the Democratic organization

considers itself aggrieved because it was
charged with being paid for the Job. 1t

how does it propose to remedy the injury

ALWAYS taking it for granted that every

serve the organization Of his party uubro-

10 make any urgent appeal in that direc-

have been made by their own selected

IT was very amusing to see the Republi-
can papers come out on the day after the
Western elections last week, some with that
''same old COON up pole, and others
with valiant rooster proudly Growing over
a supposed political triumph. The fun
didn't last very long, however, for on the
following Gay it was discovered that the
coon had sneaked forth little too soon,
and that the rooster had commenced to
crow before lie was half way out of the
woods. The Herald played this foug trick
ON its readers as late as Thursday afternoon.
1t was fitting imitation of the traditional
boy whistling to keep his courage up while
passing a graveyard after dark, or of
drowning man grasping at straw. To
lose three Congressman in Ohio, three in
Indiana, and taco in Iowa-thus placing a
Democratic majority in the lower branch
Of the next Congress beyond all dOubt-was
not much to crow over, nor was it exactly
the entertainment to which Republican
editors expected 10 be invited. The mar
ro50 of the victory won by the Democracy
in these elections consists in the fact that
they secured a majority of the Congress /
men from each of the States of Ohio and .
Indiana, whose votes win per consequence,
be cast for a Democrat for President in the
event of the election being thrown into the
House of Representatives.. Dan Voorhees,
In securing majority of tOoelUe
over the Republicans and Greenbackers in
the Indiana Legislature, and his election to
the L. 5. Senate may therefore be regarded
as certain. This is proud victory for the
eloquent Indiana Senato-, in the face Of a
Republican appoltionment bill in that State
which is as ones sided and unjust as the one
now in force in our own State.

IT is very evident that the Republican
leaders intend to play their usual fraudu-
lent game a: the election in PHILADELPHIA.
unless prevented by the Judges of the
Courts, before whom the annual contest to
purge the registry lists commenced last
week, and will continue daily until few
days previous to the election. The asses
soIs have returned total Of 1S9, $40 regis
tered voters in that city. New York con-
tains about 800, 600 more Inhabitants than
Philadelphia, but has never polled as many
votes IS are registered in the latter city.
II is believed that nearly 10000 more
names are on the Philadelphia lists than
ought to be. As nearly all the wards are
Republican, the assessors of course belong
to that party, and as an instance Of how
etfcctually they do their fraudulent work,
it was shown in the Court of Common
Pleas, last Saturday, that eight voters were
put down on the list as living at No. 1866
Howard street, whereas Mrs. Potts tesSi-
fled before the Court that she lived at that
number with her husband aud son, and that
there were no other men in the house, All
the efforts that the Democrats have made
III the Legislature to have one assessor of
each party elected in the different wards
have been defeated by the ring, for the ex-
press purpose of preventing an honest reg
istration. Last year 5000 illegal names
were stricken from the list by the two
Judges, and double that number would
have been erased had there been time
The frauds in the city of rings at the next
election bid fair to exceed those perpetra-
ted IN 1879 in the interest of Hartranlt.

We were entirely too liberal last week
in conceding that the Republican State
ticket in Ohio had been elected by prob
ably 1000 majority. Last Saturday the
Republicans of Columbus claimed ma
jori.y Of only 1900, while tho Democrats
would not concede moro than 5000. Thus
las this great Republican victory dwindlcd
down almost to a drawn game, for which
ticket have themselves alone to blame. If
