Republican candidates made application
to Chief Justice Appleton for manda-
mus, which shall compel the Council to
exhibit the returns. This application
VIII be argued before the full Court, today
Monday.
As far as described, the action OF Gov.
Garcelon, though without precedent, does
not prove any plot to defeat the popular
wilt might simply be the result OF
mistaken ideas of duty entertained by IN
experienced men. But it is alleged that in
certain cases where returns from Demo
cratic towns have been defective, the au-
thorities have been notified TO correct
them. This shows that only Repubh-
cans are denied the right of making cor
rections. If the prohibition had been
strictly enforced, Republicans would not
complain, for we are assured by two ex-
Governors, that large majority of IN
accurate returns come from Democratic
towns But the course pursued IN tins
matter, shows that justice Is not TO b,
shown 10 Republicans. IL may also ',
seen BY Governor Garcelon' 5 language O.
the Herald reporter, that he and the CoyD-
ell propose to consider the question Of ice
sality and Of eligibility, In defiance o.
law. Singularly enough, all Irregular
ties reported are from Republican towns.
