They Dare Not Face It.

The republicans in congress know only
too well the truth of the charges contained
in the Potter resolution of inquiry and dare
not face it. The party that only few
short years ago was in the zenith OF its
glory has, by it's corruption, fraud and
unprecedented profigacy sunk into utter
disgrace, With the effrontery of hardened
criminals the leaders seek to evade the
inevitable result of an inquiry into the
Louisiana and Florida frauds, by the con-
temptible plan Of skulking. If, as some OF
their loud mouthed organs claim Hayes
presidential title is clear, why fear an
Investigation. An honest man breads nc
scrutiny however searching, feeling sure
Of cleaner record at its close. The truth
is the republican leaders are guilty, they
know it too, and by the most brazen facec
disregard seek to brass 1t through In thu
old time manner. The ensanguined shir
is among the issues Of the past, the wa
claims scare don't alarm anybody and now
all other sources failing, the republican
party with its utter reeklessness Of con
sequences is trying to fight it out on cheek
The truth will come out however, mo matte
how much the republican ringsters ma,
seek to smother it, and when it doe
history will furnish chapter, the darkes
ever written, page that will hold up tn
republican ringsters to the contempt of a
honest men.

The following from the Illinois State

The following from the Illinois State
Register has the true ring to it:
Whatever may be said as to the propri
ETY. OF passing the resolution offered by Mr..
Potter in the house, providing for an
investigation of the election frauds in
Florida and Louisiana, there can be but
one opinion as to the means taken by the
republican members of the house to
prevent the passage Of that resolution, The
tilibustering and lodging yesterday will be
found set forth in our dispatches of this
morning. At each call of the roll the
republican members refused to vote, and
thus prevented the passage of the resolu
ton, as the result of the roll call showed
no quorum to be present.
To dodge the vote, to stand mute, and
refuse to answer was the only refuge left
for the representatives of that party which
in 1875 formed a gigantic conspiracy tt
defraud the people of their suffrages, and
threatened to plunge the nation into civil
war if the result of the conspiracy was
resisted. No argument against the passage
of the resolution was presented, and d
reason was given why the frauds should
not be investigated, no denial of thu
frauds was made, and indeed none wal
possible, and the republican party in the
house was as silent as the grave, and founC
its only safety in that silence which il
confession and disgrace.

The Fraudulent. Presidents Title.


The dispatches state that the object OF
this investigation will not be 10 test the
validity of Mr.. Hayes title to the Office he
occupies, but simply to place the true
state OF affairs in relation TO these frauds
before the people. This part of the pro-
gramme is rather difficult to exactly COM
prehend. If, as the result of this con-
gressional investigation, 1t should be
officially and publicly declared beyond
peradventure that frauds were committed,
and that it is only due to these frauds that
Mr.. Hayes sits in the seat of Washington
and Jefferson to-day, how can it but affect
ahe validity Of his title? Then there will
be no longer any doubt regarding the fact
that another man was the choice OF the
American people for the highest office
within their gilt, and even the decision of
the eight-by-seven electoral commission
will hardly be sufficient excuse in the
minds of the people for any one to hold
that office in defiance of their known will
Certainly if, under such circumstances
popular indignation does not manifest
itself in "A most unmistakable manner, theI
the conviction must force itself plainly, Go
only upon the minds of the citizens OF thu
United States, but also upon the whole
civilized world, that, as a people, we hav
sadly degenerated, and have lost the spiri
OF independence and liberty which wa
bequeathed US by the founders of the re
public.
We shall soon see, therefore, if thes
frauds be finally established, whether o
not the title Il am an American citizen,
is TO remain the synonym of free man, o
whether it will mean simply one who
willing to submit to usurpation and frau
successfully contaminated by mears Of
reasonable conspiracy

The only objection that has been urged
with any degree of plausibility against

bend that such action will disturb the quiet
and repose of the country, and bring
confusion to all branches of industry, We
ace no reason in such objection. As well

THE GREAT CONSPIRACY,
The Duty of Congress in Relation to
the. Great. Fraud.I imperative
From the Elmira Gazette.

The duty of congress at this time is
imperative. 1t must establish, by official
investigation, the exact nature Of this out
rage upon the ballot-box, hitherto held
sacred and inviolate. And they must not
stop at determining the extent of the
fraud committed. They must establish
and afix the responsibility for the crime.
1t will not do merely to prove the fact
of the commission of fraud. 1t must
smoke out and brand the authors. Delay
is disgraceful. ProcraStination is damn
ing. Too long now have the democratic
Representatives hesitated. Their con-
stituents are indignant They demand
action. They look for decisive results.

A Murderer Of Free Government.


Hayes now knows that he was never
chosen by the will of the people. Hayes
is not honest. or before another sun he
would lay down the fruits of the great
crime of the ages, and step out of the
chair of usurper. To continue longer 10
it marks him daily as murderer of free

Let Not an Hour Pass!


About one year ago a committee OF
democratic congressman, duly appointed
by the democratic members of congress,
addressed the party long letter. In that
address the party following was advised
to let no hour pass in which the great
crime of the robbery of the presidency
should be forgotten.
Time has passed, and chapter by chap
ter the black history of the crime has been
written. 1t has been written so indelibly,
and the evidence upon which it is based.is
80 undeniable, that even the participators
in the deed stand aghast and make no re
buttal. The crime has literally no defend,
era and few apolOgizers. The position of
the accessories, almost. unanimously, is
that whatever has been done is past undo
lng-plainiy plea OF guilty with defense
based on jurisdiction.
Now, can it be that the democratic con-
gressmen who, one year ago, advised that
no hOnr be allowed to pass in which the
crime should be forgotten, will themselves
permit such an hour to pass, We hope
not.
The Country Can Stand the Truth.

people did not vote for Hayes, The vii
lainy of a few confessed scoundrels sup
pressed her true vote and deprived the
whole nation OF it's choice. States have
been cheated before now in their choice of
local officers, but this "a the first time in
hundred years that presidential election
has turned upon the stufing of a single
ballot box. Whether the investigation
will be made by joint committee Of the
two houses, composed of the best men of
both parties, or be undertaken by d COM
mittee of the house, will make little differ.
