BULL. DOZING IN MASSA chi
lSETTS.

The testimony taken by the Wallace
committee at Boston discloses the TACT
that in the State of Massachusetts the
Republican owners and superintend.
ents of the manufactures resorted TO q
systematic intimidation of their opera
tives at the last election. The Boston
Globe publishes the testimony and
comments thereon as follows:
The Manchang affair is o clear case
of intimidation of the mcanest and
most dangerous sort. Tho evidence
shows conclusiyely that a powerful
manufacturing corporation sought to
control directly the votes of its wage
people by threatening thom with loss
of work, by refusing them the use Of
the town hall, by discharging from its
employ men who voted against its
wishes, by seeking to drive such men
from the town, by forcing its employees
to vote under its own eyes, by supply.

ing private marks and placed in seal
ed envelopes, BY ioreibly taking But.
Ter ballots from the hands of its EN-.
ployes, and by open threats and bri-
berry.
In Chelsea the evidence shows a
case Of attempted intimidation which
was open and barefaced, and was fol
lowed by the punishment threatened
the moment II became known that the
colorcd employe had not voted in &C.
cordance with the command of his EN-.
ploycr 10 Gardner the evidence shows
that an agent was operating ia that
town with plenty Of money, who open.
~ sought to buy votes, and asserted
that his money came from q national
bank
Ia the Plymouth case the evidence
shows an actual occurrence, which Is
simply disgrace to the State of Mas
sachusetts. 1t is proven by the record
of the court itself that a superior court

lied native born citizen as o condition
precedent to voting, and that the au-
thorities OF that town insisted upon
such naturalization before they would
permit nativo.born citizen OF Messa-
chusetts TO cast vote for General
Butler There is no possibility of dis.
proving this fact. 1t must stand as a
fact, and shows degree Of ignorance,
or both, for which no excuse can be
offered, and which, if generally prac.
ticcd, would utterly destroy the free.

THE NAIL CLINCHED.
The Washington Post puts it in this

u w a.,
Inc washington fOS' pu's IL IN 'n's
plain way
"No amount of invective could in.
tcnsify the shame and disgust which
every honorable mind feels when con.
templating the de facto President of
the United States, In paving $1,000 of
busb.money to close tho mouth Of one
of the thieves who stole for him the
vote of Louisiana. This is one of those
scenes that arc most effective in their
naked simplicity. II will live forever
In the memory Of mankind. and be ex.
ecrated by the good men Of all coming
generations.
"IIitherto the friends and apologists
of Mr.. Uayes stoutly contended that
he was in no way implicated in the
crimesto which he owes hisincnmbency
of the Presidential office. When he
appointed one after another of tho big
and little title thieves to places under
the Government, until scores of them
were thus ouartered on the public OK.
cbeouer and when IL was shown that
many of these appointees were disrep.
utable fellows, having no honest claims
on any partv. the friends of Mr.. Hayes
still said that he was guiltless of any
wrong; that these appointments had
been secured by political influence in
the customary way.
"When the doors of the Executive
Mansion, and of Mr.. Hayes private
consulting room. swung on plant
hinges to admit more disreputable
crowd than had gained admission there,
even in the palmiest days of the "era
fgood stcaling;' when these creatures,
unknown to the public for any other
cause than their direct connection with
the Presidential steal, were found to
have the choice OF available positions
in the public service; when Mr.. Hayes
abandoned all his solemn pledges not
to remove honest and faithful officials,

He ssEs.-Casanave, the negro
member Of the Louisiana Returning
Board, which gave that State to Hayes,
in 1876, although the Tilden electors
had 5000 majority, has not been re-
warded with q high.priced Office by
Hayes, Sherman 4 Co., and he now
turns up in Washington and demands
pile of cash. 1t leaked out that
Hayes boy paid him 81 900, and Shcr.
man, Mrs. jerks, and others, several
thousand more. This did not satisfy
the colorcd gentleman. He demanded
still more, and finally when Sherman,
jerks and Co. refused to come down
he blowed on them. Hayes at first
denied that ho gave Casanave dol
lar. But the Washington Post OF Fri
day, says: "Mr. Hayes now admits
that he personally contributed 5000 to
the Casanave hush fund, but no more
We do not care to quibble about figures
The fact that the bogus President dis.
bursed one solitary dollar for such an
object is proof sufficient OF his guilty
knowledge of the deeds which went
before"

ACLIScHER.--The Washington Post
pertinently remarks; While Mr.. Charles
Foster, the Radical candidate for Gov,
ernor, is going through Ohio anathe
matizing "rebel brigadiers," it might
be well for him to sit down in a back
room occasionally, and reflect on the
time when he met a number of "rebeI
brigadiers" at Wormley's Hotel, in this
city, and entered into certain arrange
ments with them relative to the mus
tering in of Mr.. Hayes, and the NOV.
ing out of Packard and Chamberlain

THE RAIDS FOR JEFF"

Tho editor of the Washington Pest
tortures the Radicals in this way:
"The Republican party of the North
may as well be- given to understand at
once that the decision of the question
as to whether Jefferson Davis shall
again take his scat in the United
States Senate, is pretty much in Their
own hands. At tho present writing
Mr.. Davis is not a citizen OF this great
Republic. In order to satisfactorily
remove his political disabilities, severa
Radical votes are needed in both
Houses of Congress, in addition to thu
solid Democratic vote, even in the
highly improbable event that that
could be obtained, TO make the neces
sary two.thlrds majority, as is also the
assent OF the Republican de fdcto Pres
ident Now the Democratic party
does not want Mr.. Davis in the Senate
nor do the people OF Mississippi, in
which State he lives, and as far as both
are concerned no immediate effort i,
likely to be made to place him there
Still, If the solid Republican party O
the country should demand that Mr.
Davis be accorded final 'vindication
of the character mentioned, we do moi
see how we could well refuse to coop
crate in order TO crafty them, if ioi
no other purpose than to dispose salts

THE ACTION OF TROOPS.

THE ACTION OF TROOPS.
LONDON, April Lord Chelmsford tele-
graphs that the relieving column for Ekow
would start about the 2Sth of March. Colonel
Pearson has established communication with
Tugeia, which is run by means of signals.
ON A STRIKE.
LONDON, April THE decision of two thirds
of the pitmen at Durham, TO strike against
reduction of wages, will have the effect of
stopping nearly 80 pits, throwing idle 25,OOO
hewers. Several large concerns will be
brought to a stand-still in course of a week
unless the owners or pitmen give way.
IN FAVOR OF MIXID OCCUPATION.
LONDON, April IA Constantinople dispatch
states that the Porte has agreed to accept the
mixed occupation scheme, on condition that
the great powers give effect Immediately to the
constitution proposed by the international
commission for Eastern Roumelia. There is
reason to believe the Portes opposition to the
mixed occupation, in the first instance, was
due to the advice of Tournier, the French am
bassador, who has since gone home on fur
Tough; and it has been arranged that the am
bassadors of the Powers shall in concert with
the Porte settle all questions of detail relative
to the occupation. 1t is considered probable
that the Russians will remain in Eastern Rou-
melia until actually replaced by foreign con-
tingents.

An Important Railroad Case.

MILWAUKEE, April THE argument in one
of the most important railroad suits ever tried
in this county began in the United States cir
cult court to-day. The case involves some
100000 and the validity and ownership Of
the charter and franchise on which the Chi
cago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad COM :
pany is founded, and makes subject to the
third mortgage many of the securities and
liens OF the company. The suit Is brought by
William Barnes. of Albany, N. Y. trustee of
the thiri mortgage, in foreclosure. Hon.
Francis Fellows, of Hartford, Conn.,; Hon.
Joshua Stark. of this city; George Scoyile, Of
Chicago, and Barnes appeared for the plaintiff,
and j. w. Carey, Of Milwaukee, for the
defense. The litigation in the case began
many years ago, and it is probable that a final
decision will now be reached, as the court has
ample jurisdiction, and all the facts are pre-
sented in the pleading. The arguments OF
Barnes and Stark were finished to-day, and
were to the effect that the decisions OF the
United States Supreme Court and a decree of
the United States circuit court affirming the
validity of the third mortsge as security for
the bonds issued under it, are decisive of the
right of Barnes to maintain the bill for relief
against the company which procured such
decision and decree on the creditors bill, and
therefore the company is estopped from set
ting up defense. The defense claim that IL
the foreclosure of 20 years ago is void as to
creditors it is void in toto. -.s

lions and advice. He sums up the whole
matter in this language:
The great maxims of free governments
are the fruit, not of one generation or of one
century, but of many generations and many
centuries; they have been fought for and
suffered for; they have been established and
consecrated by blood and fire. II we would
preserve them and profit by them. we must
remember them, teach them, and stand by
them. 1t is an accepted article of the polit-
ical creed OF every free country that the
military is and must be subject to the civil
power. Whoever teaches that any military
officer, from the highest to the lowest from
the commander-in-chief TO the sergeant of q
guard, can lawfully command his soldiers to
enter any place or do any act which the law
making power of his country forbids, should
be accounted, as he Is in fact, the enemy at
once Of his country and his race"
This Is one OF the great issues on which
the Democracy propose to go to the country.
Another is the repeal of the test oath for
jurors, which permits the packing of juries
for special or political purposes. And the
other is the repeal of the law for the unlim-
tied appointment of deputy mashals to do
partisan work at the polls We never had Q
stronger or more righteous cause. 1t is in
grained with every principle of American
liberty, an untarnished judiciary and free
and honest suffrage.

ARRIVAL OLE GARIRALpI.

ARRIVAL OF GARlBALDl.
ROME, April 7.-General Garibaldi, on arriv-
ing here, was greatly fatigued. He was car
ried on a couch to the residence of his son
Menotti. The king sent his aide -de-camp to
visit him.
A more pathetic scene than that on Carl
baldi's arrival at the railway station has sell
dom been beheld. Shouts, raised as the train
entered the station, were speedily silenced by
circulation OF the report that the general was
ill. He was conveyed from the train on a
mattress placed on a large litter. He lay ex-
tended and motionless, with his eyes closed,
and a red Handkerchief bound around his head.
1t looked as though a corpse was being carried
in state. 1t was found impossible to move
hlm from the litter, which was placed on an
open carriage, and driven, accompanied by a
mournfully silent crowd, to the house of his
son, Menotti Garibaldi. 1t was impossible to
move the general at CIvita Vecchia, and the
side of the railway saloon was cut to admit the
litter. The general slept well, however, Satur-
day night, and the doctor thinks he will leave
his bed within week. Friends assert that
politics are wholly unconnected with his COM
ing here. He found that his health was not
improving at Caprera, and thought the miner
al springs near Ciyita Vecchia might benefit
his gout. Garibaldi, replying to Syndic, who
visited him on his arrival, said he did not
himself know the reason Of his visit. Some
say Garibaldi came to Rome to die.
