PERHAPS the Republican statesmen
who have broken out with a scarlet
rash Of indignation at the prospect OF
Washburn, Of Minnesota, being unseated,
will recall the case of General Morgan,
of this state, who was thrown out to give
Columbus Delano a seat to which he
was never elected. There was no pre-
tense that Delsno had majority of the
votes, but his party was in power in
Congress, and they bounced Morgan out
on the thinnest pretense. In Washburn'a
case it is entirely different. His alleged
majority of $500 Republican votes all
comes from the little city of Minneapo'
lis, city that doesn't give that many
votes all told, and where the Republican
majority never exceeds $50 votes, or one
tenth what is claimed for him, Wash
burn was behind in the race when he
reached Minneapolis, and the proof oi
frauds in carrying Minneapolis is con-
elusive. This isn't a case of chickens
coming home to roost, but instead, one
of strict justice, and Washburn should
go.-Enqttirsr.

THE PARTY OF GREAT MORAL
IDEAS,

George William Curtis's defeat as del
egate to the Utica Convention pointedly
illustrates the full magnitude of the re.
action in the Republican party from the
high moral grounds to which it once pre-.
tended. Mr.. Curtis is the most eminent
member of the party in the State Of New
York, He represents to the country all
that is best and most hopeful in it.
Since Greeley, he has been its one editor
with conscience in New York, battling
for what was clean and true, but still
loyal to the party, and never till last
year going 80 far as to scratch sticket.
For this act he is now refused election to
Utica, and Richmond county will be rep.
resented by straight delegation, who
are probably for Grant. The defeat
is not for Mr.. Curtis, it is for the party
