A Republican Programme for Maine

The understanding in Washington, how.
ever, is that the Republican members hold
Ing certificates, and those who claim to have
been elected, viii. on the first Wednesday In
January, proceed TO take cnenizance OF the
fact that there~,IaS~R Q election by the PEG pie
OF the State, and the Legislature having
selected the names from those voted for ut
the September election will certify the same
to the Senate, and in this way Mr. Davis
will be chosen Governor. Immediately
apon the announcement Ut the faet he Will
telegraph President Hayes, settng forth that
be has been chosen Governor in accordance
with the laws of The State OF Maine, and
it is said the President will simply reply
by telegraph, addressing MIR. Davis as Gov
ernor and feaicitating hia upon his accession
to the, subernatorial' o6ee. So tar as the
presidential recotnition Is required, that Is
all that is necessary. [aut1I] Con gress is
powerless TO Nndo this act, since it cannot
enact or rcsokre except with the approval OF
the President, 1t can appoint j0iot COM
mttee TO- investigate, and may do other
things to createa sentiment against the Re-
publiea,ls. but it. Cannot do any more.
Again, the Supreme Court having decided
ia the rebellion eases that the court mist he
governed by the act OF the. President
in such eases. il would be. it Is argued,
a contempt or the court on the part Of Con-
gpess fmore stuff TO question the signature
Of Governor Davis to the electoral vote of
Maine when it shall be counted In February.
1881. So far il is known Mere in Wash
ingtoa. the Republicans have never thought
OF using force or intent.d intimidation on
the day OF The meetih of the Legislature.
but the quiet purpose has been to a. re the
Republicans return d as elected, and be.
lleved to be 'eleete 1, in their seats at the
