The Fraud Cry.
Manly Letter by Member Of the Nsar York
Democratic Committee.

Manly Letter by a Member Of the Nssr York
Democratic Committee.
ALBANY, Nov. I0.-Tbe following
letter has been addressed to the Argus
by Mr.. Edgar X. Apgar, a member both
of the Democratic State Committee
and of the Executive Committee Of that
body:
ALBANY, Nov. 9, lSs0.-To the fir
gus:-As there appears to be some
misunderstanding on the subject, it is
proper to state that there has been no
meeting held since the day of election,
either of the Democratic State Com
mittee or the executive committee of
that body, nor have notices been sent to
the members of either committee for
any such meeting in the future. Any
action taken by the menbers Of the
committee, whether officer or otherwise,
is Individual action which the commit
tee has not authorized, and for which it
cannot be held responsible. In so grave
a matter as calling into question the
vote of New York in the Electoral Col
lege, too great caution cannot be exer-
cised. The only way in which any con-
test could be made with even shadow
of probable success would be oy the
rejection of the Republican electoral
tickets on which the word "electors"
has been tGice printed. This, be-
iieve, cannot and should not be DONE
To change the result in any other way,
more than twenty thousand separate
cases of fraudulent or corrupt voting
would have to be proved-an evident
impossibility. 1t certainly cauno: be
expected that the present State Board
of Canvassers will declare otherwise
than Is shown By the face of the returns,
and nay view of the Democratic doc
triDe leads me to hold that Congress
cannot go behind the seal Of the State
to investigate fraud at the polls in the
choice of Presidential electors This
being so, 1t seems 20 me that all talk
assuming to possess an official character
about having the electoral vote of this
State cast for Hancock, is calculated to
bring ridicule and reproach upon the
Democratic party, and would tend, if
importance were given to 1t, TO produce
a still worse effect. Those who would
justify ever a slight departure from es-
tablished laws and forms to count in
General Hancock in spirit of re
verge, would take a long step toward
Mexicanizing our Government Hold
ing firmly to these views, | am i'm
PEELED to their public utte-snce as a
member of the Democratic State Com
mit.ee and of the Executive Commit
tee, in order that j may not be con-
sidered to have By silence acquiesced
in" what 2nrports 10 be, butts not, the
authorized action Of either comC'ittee.

The man Barnum and his Demo
cratic National Committee have the
iInpudence to issue an address in re-
gard to fraud. Barnum and his com
Inittee, if served right, should be
sued for completely in the issuing of
the Chinese letter, and for obtaining,
and paying men for false swearing in
the courts OF New York IN regard to
the forgery. Out upon the scoun-
drels who would perpetrate forgery,
and pay men to swear it through the
courts, and then transform them
selves, as it were, into better people,
and prefer charges of fraud, where it
does not exist, against other people.
Their cry OF fraud is to screen them
selves, or rather to direct attention
from their own dirty work 1t is an
old dodge, and is played in every
community by commonest OF bad
people. Stand up, Committee, and
show yourselves.

The following Is the official vote for
Congress In this district. 1t will be
observed that Mr.. Fisher has 7lS ma.
jority in the district. Two years ago
Fisher bad 207 majority over Stenger.
Taking into consideration the fact that
MIR. Speer received the votes Of 456
Greenbackers in the district, Fishers
majority shows a wonderful increase
over two years ago. Take these 456
votes from Mr. Speer, and Mr.. Fishers
plurality would be ll74, an increased
majority of 967 over two years age
In 1873, Dougherty, Greenbacker, had
I52 votes for Congress in the district.
Take these from Fisher, and be lacked
545 votes of carrying the district by q
majority, whereas, this year he carried
the district by us majority over the
Democrats and Greenbackers combined.
This is splendid triumph, und an en-
phstic endorsement Of his course in

dered decision in the case of Ken
ward Philip, holding the defendant to

Davis says the Morey letter is clearly
a forgery, and the evidence indicates
a grave conspiracy to accomplish a
national crime, and points to con-
spirators of far higher positions, of
whom Philip may have been merely a

Bradford, Pa, Nov. 12.-One OF the
most horrible tragedies ever witnessed
IN the oil country occurred at BOrdell
City, twelve miles from Bradford, late
on Wednesday night. John c. Brown
runs saw-mill near Bordeli and has
in his employ twelve men who occrpy
rooms IN a small house near the mill.
On Wednesday night several of the men
sat around the stove playing cards.
The fire was low, and Joseph Heeps
thought to revive 1t by throwing tin
peach can full of petroleum into the
stove. The gas caught fire, and Heeps,
with an oath, threw the can away. IL
fell into bucket OF crude oil and in
stantly the structure was IN flames.
The burning oil few over every thing
The men made wild efforts to escape,
and five of the eight in the house stag
gered out of the building with their
clothes on FIRE and we're frigbtfully
burned. Three men-Elliott Brown,
Barney Haley, and II. Hyde-perisbed
10 the flames. ] heir cbsrred and black
eBed trunks were placed side by side
in rude hemlock collins. Brown was a
resident of Jasper, Steuben county, n.

The Cunning Ofthe Fox.

Many curious anecdotes are told Of
the craft of the fox, some of which are
no doubt, apocryphal, but others,
doubtless, true. NaturaIists assert
that it mas been frequently authenti-
Gated that the fox has coun,erfeited
death to escape capture. | have been
told story of this kind within a few
days by person who claims that he
was an eye witness Of the affair-some
fisherman on the west coast of Ireland
few hundred yards from the main
land, in quest of bait, relate the
following: The island was inhabited
by large numbers of rnbo ard
could be reached at low tide by
wading, the water then being only few
inches deep. One morning they went
in their boat quite early, 1t being high
tide, and on landing saw dead fox ly-
ing on the beach. The fur of the ami
NAL was all beiraggled, and he seemed
to have been drowned. One of the men
remarkiDg that his skin was worth
something, pitched him into the boat
Procuring their bait they returned to
the mainland, and the man who had
possessed himself of the fox siezed him
By the tail and flung him on shore. As
soon as the animal touched the ground
be picked himself up with considerable
agility for dead fox and sho. off like
a fash IN among the cliffs, while the
men stood staring at each other in mute
astonishment. The men concluded
that he had crossed over to the island
during the night, when the tide was
low, in search of rabbits, and finding in
the morning that he was cut off from
the mainland counterfeited death with
the expectation of thereby procuring a
passage to the shore in the boat, an ex-
pectation which was fully realized.

Franklin b. Gpwen, President of the

correspondence. Mr. Powell processes
to be indignant over the fact that Mr..
Gowen did not tell him that two direc-
tors, Messrs. Borie aud Mexican. owned
interest in coal lands at the time the
company bought the lands. Gowen
claims that the objections and criti-
eisms, as advanced By Powell, are based
upon the theory, and paper book keep
ing of some one who ignores the prae-
tical operations at work against the
management of the company, and that
the objections urged against the owner
ship of Borie and Mexican as directors
in lands that were Bought by the com
pany, arc of no consequence as com
pared to the great advantages that will
socrue to the company through the pur-
chase of the property in question.

For Member of the House Of Representatives,
from the 9Th Congressional District,
JOHN X. LYNCH.
The above is an exact copy of the
ticket that was received by the sworn
Judges, but thrown out by the Com
missioners-
Now, reader, could you tell, if you
had not heard it, why the lower tick
ct was thrown out? We doubt it.
The small printers dash between the
lines is the cause. What DO you
think of it Do you know that these
are not ''distinguishable marks, not
devices" but that they are merely
used in the place of stops9 Cut out
one of these tickets, fold it up, and
see if you can see this outrageous
distinguishing mark. The wori; done
yesterday is an outrage on fair play,
a violation OF the law, breach of the
Democratic platform, and unless it is
denounced and disowned, will return
to plague this community.
