The following from the Helena
World Of the 10th inst, is commended
to the attention of those who control
the matter. We have heard compli-
ments of the kind before: ut might
be a reliefto travellers by boat to have
the porters cease exacting fifty cents
every time they (the porters) look at
a passengers trunk or valise. The
practice is becoming an absolute nui-
aanoe and imposition, and the proper
officers should put a stop to it. One
can travel by rail from st. Louis to
New York and back, and their bag
gage will not cost them as much for
transportation as it does from here to
Memphis and return by steamer"

Garfield on the Extra Session.

From General Garfields Speech at Madison. ]
1t is matter of proof under oath indubit-
ably that the election in New York State in
1868 was carried by sheer and outrageous
fraud, that 81 900 fraudulent votes were
thrown in the city of New York alone, with
which they were enabled to carry the State
by only 10000 majority. In fact, the State
went Republican by $4,000. The first and
foremost point in the election law was that
the United States should have a man at this
end of the ballot-box and another al that,
one a Democrat and the other Republican,
who should stay there from the time the bal
lotboY was opened in the morning until the
last vote was counted at night, and lac the
official witness of that grand transaction until
it closed. Was that fraud? Was that OPP
preston? And yet every Democrat in Con
gress voted against it, and fought against it.
and denounced it as oppression. and demand
ed IA free election. Laughter. Oh OH
free. What kind of freedom do they want
but the old freedom of Tammany Hall, the
freedom of stuffed ballot-boxcs without wit
nesses, the freedom to change votes without
witnesses the freedom to steal Liberty from
her cradle. Let me explain in on; word the
have a solid South. All they want is the
States of New York and Ohio, With these
they carry the Presidency in their hands. and
have captured the Government from turret
70 t,uy t,py nd
New York; Only in one way. II they can
get free control of the cities of Cincinnati
and New York they can carry those State
without any power tn prevent them. for they
can stuff more ballots and steal more votcs
into the boxes after the election is over than
the good people can put into them between
the hours of six in the morning and sin AT
night. Laughter. And hence the effort t.
get into New York and Cincinnati. and these
two concrete purposes were all they wer,
after in the late session. If an angel from
heaven. or. rather, a devil from the inferno
pit had been able some night to pluck from
our statute books the provision of law thai
would give them those two cities, or if they
could put in a clause exempting those tw,
from the operation of the election law, thu
appropriation bills would have been passed
without word of debate. But they knew
they must carry those two cities or lose 1850.
The Republican party did not propose to
sacrifice 1880 or any other year of our Lord
on such an issue as that [applanse1, and We
have come back home to tell you that though
they said not one dollar of SIS 900. 900 should
be appropriated until the election laws were
repealed. yet S44 600, 900 have been appro-
priated, and not one of the election laws has
been repealed. Applause.
