The Mexican Method.

Some Republicans pretend to think
that the Potter investigation may Mexi-
canize this country-to use their phrase
ology. Now, these politicians do not un-
derstand the Mexican plan and theory
of government. The essence of that sys-
tenn is to permit an adventurer to get in
to the Presidency by bargain and fraud,
and then to keep in by intrigue or force.
The rebellion was an attempt to intro
duce into the United States the Mexican
methods OF carrying on and carrying out
Presidential contests. After terrible
struggle we pluclSed up and cast away
the revolutionary exotic ere it became
too deeply rooted in our soil.
Having successfully resisted the first
effort to substitute the Mexican for the
American mode of conducting and deter
mining national elections, the people re-
lapsed into fancled security till the MeXi. i.
can method of obtaining power was sud
denly sprung upon them by the frauds of
the Returning Boards OF Louisiana and
Florida, the threats and promises of
visiting statesmen at New Orleans and
Tallahassee, the corrupt bargains at
Wormley's Hotel in Washington, and
the dtiunde dodges of the demonstrations
al Electoral Commission. As in the
spring of 1861, 50 now, the vital question
is, whether the Mexican system shall find
a foothold among us by allowing the
Great Crime of the past year to go un-
whipt of justice.
Undermining orderly Governments is
IA slow process. 1t is the first step that is
taken with the most reluctance. Once
committed to the wrong path, going for
ward is comparatively easy. Trained un-
der the English common law, the a meri-
can people are the obedient servants of
precedents, and herein lies our chief
peril. Nothing would operate SO power
fully to MeXicanize the United States Ls
to permit Mr. Hayes to hold the Presi-
dental office for four years, by IA fraudu-
lent title, without either Investigation or
punishment.-N. Y. Sun.

w VI dN, 20.
The report of the Senate Foreign Re-
lations Committee on the fishery award
will not be pleasing document to Sir
Alexander Gait and the Canadians. 1t
says, in tolerably plain language, that
the award is so unreasonable as to
amount to swindle, and this in the face
of the fact that Sir Alexander Gait, the
British Commissioner, demanded $15,-
000,0 900, or nearly three times as much as
the Senate Committee now declares pre-
posteruus and exorbitaut.
The most significant passage in the re-
port is that in which the committee show
that an award of the King of the Neither
lands was set aside and disallowed by
this government in 1897 ON the grounds,
as stated by Mr.. Clay, then Secretary of
State, ''that His Majesty had recon-
mended mode ofsettlement outside of
the facts and terms of submission" On
this the committee remark
Had Messrs. Gait and Delfosse favored
the commission, and in that way the
United States, with the grounds on
which they based their conclusions it
might be shown that they departed from
the facts and terms of submission, as
did the King of the Netherlands, and the
justice of our setting aside his award,
promptly and peremptorily, was never
seriously disputed by the government of
Great Britain.
This is a pointed allusion to fact
which has been much commented on
here that the three Commissioners kept
no record or protocol OF their delibera-
tions upon the awards, but sitting with
closed doors, opened them only to make
public the conclusion of Messrs. Gait
and Delfosse and the protest of Mr.. Kel-
log, the American Commissioner. This
omission was, of course, the fault of the
American Commissioner, who is univer-
sally declared to have been a most in
capable person for the duties he was to
