1t is an old saw, that "when man talks

| II is an old saw, that "when man talks
about a thing he knows nothing about, he is
apt to make an ass Of himself" The editor
OF the Ottawa Republican, does so emphatic
ally when he undertakes to state what Judge
Trumbull said at the recent democratic con
ference in Chicago. According to Cullen
Judge T. talked in this wise;
| He said the Maine was not at all like the
Louisiana case The latter did not turn on
but on the question of fraud and intimidation,
for which the laws of the state had provided
specific remedy. The law gave the return
ing board judicial powers in determining the
Question OF violence and fraud in the cleo
| tons, and, on proof of such fraud and wide
spread intimidation, the vote IN several voting
districts was thrown out.
! In Maine, Judge Trumbull said, the case
is wholly different. There there was no
question OF the honesty or fairness of the
voting. There is no charge Of intimidation
or fraud. The votes were all honest and free
SO far ~ GarcelOn and his council aver The
Iquestion is simply and only this Shall the
Governor of Name, with his cOnncil, be per.
mitcd to count out thirty-sCvcn members of
the legislature because of trllinC technical
mistakes made 10y clerks or boards of election,
tor which the voters are in no way response
BILE? Common sense and common honesty
say they shall not
Judge Trumbull uttered no such preternat
ural nonsense We took minutes of his
speech, and can repeat almost his exact
words, He opposed action on the resolution
condemning Gov. Garcelon and the council
in Maine because he said we really knew
nothing about the case but what appeared in
the republican newspapers. Gov. Garcelon
may have acted, rs he claims, in strict obcdi-
ence to law, or he may have been party to
gross fraud But he begged the meeting to
let the latter fact appear before they proceeded
fraud was open and palpabe. With his own
eyis he had seen the returns opened, straight
and regular, with no affidavits or statements
Of bull-dozing attached, on account Of which
alone the board was authorized by law to
throw them out. Yet these returns, unlm.
peachable on their face, were 50 changed,
without the slightest pretext Of legal warrant,
that instead of footing up some 5000 majority
In favor of the Tilden electors, they were
made to foot 5000 in favor of the Hayes elect
ors,
That was about what Judge Trumbull
said. The idea that he had the cheek to tell |
intelligent democrats that the Tiden votes in |
Louisiana were thrown ont ION proof of fraud
and widespread lntimldationm Is unworthy
Of even q greater numbskull than we ever

wrong in policy aud principle and democrats
dare not apologize for or justify 1t. No better
illustration can be furnished of the error OF
such a course than the frequent citation of
those who try to excuse it of the Hayes con.
sprators who by the same means stole the
presidency. Wrongs cannot be justified by
precedcnts and republican precedents, if fol.
lowed can only lead to the Mexcanization
of the government As Il contemporary iorci
bly, observes, THE great crime of the repub.
ican party, in stealing the presidency, should
be permitted to stand alone as the only one of
that degree blackening the pages of American
history and the lesser ones committed BY the
same party should never be initiated or re.
pcated by the democrats. The Maine row
illustrates how little it would require to set
the people at each others Threats, and what a
fearful responsibility was assumed by the re.
publican party when 1t instituted the system
of revising, correcting, throwing ont and
altering election returns IN the interest of
party. The rottenness Of the republican party
is seen in its selfish defense of the practice
and its arrogance, selfsuflicIency and
hypocrisy in condemning it when used for Its
defeat" The end of our free institutions will
have come, and the black pail of political
corruption, despotism and ruin will cover the
land when all parties shall have become so
corrupt that without shame or scrupe they
shall grasp at power by the methods and prec-
edents that have grown only out of the revolu-
tionary policies and practices Of the Republi
can party and the doom can only be averted
by Democrats everywhere firmly and nexora
bly, setting their faces against the whole despic.

1t is doubtless very wicked for democrats

Of lsG vote., but when the returning board"
met, week $50, he was counted out, the
name Of Hutchinson having been mis-spelled
