The abolition of the death penalty
does not seem to have proved satisfac-
tory in Wisconsin, as the Judiciary
Committee OF the Senate of that State
has reported favorably bill providing
that persons who commit murder shall
suffer death. 1t seems that the theory
of tumanitarians in regard to restrain
ing the evil by less severe punishments,
has not proved so effectual as expec-
ted, and in nearly every State whore it
has bsen tried, there has been return
to the old methods. We do not know
whether the trial given has been as full
and fair as could be desired, but one
thing We do know that it is better that
the murderer should be hung than pro-
to life and property be rendered
less efficient than at present. Any pen
atty which most effectually restrains
criminal action is the best, and if moth
ing but hanging will prevent murder
We go for hanging, although We have
long thought that about the worst use
a rational being can be put to.

A False Charge.

The allegation of tae Gazette" th at
a fsw well-known Republican politi-
clans of this city, took quite crowd of
repsaters to Philadelphia, and are un-
derstood to have voted them in the
close wards, VIZ believe to be utterly
destitute of truth. We challenge it to
namo the parties, or to admit that the
assertion is a fabrication gotten up
merely for political effect, without re-
gard to truth or justice. TIE violators
OF law. the polluters of the box, who
ever they may be, should be punished,
and the Gazette" owes it to this COM
munity to expose their names or admit
itself to b. guilty of the publication Of a
gross libel. The only person we heard
of going to Philadelphia and voting last
Tuesday, was a well-known Democratic
repeater, of this city, who boasted to
US personally that be voted twelve
times in p iladelphia on Tuesday, and
all the tim for Democrat.

Violence nd the Polls.

The Philadalphia " Times" says
there was fraud and violence at the
city election held in that city last Tues
day especially in the Nineteenth Ward,
in which it alleges that system Of re-
ipsating was carried on all day, with
the assistance Of the police, and to an
extent which must have controlled the
result. II asserts that the Democratic
window book men we're. hustled, brow
beaten and driven from the polls, and
if one of them presumed to challenge a
repeater he was nscked by policeman
and dragged of to station house. 1t
further alleges that after noon the
Democrats in several divisions we're so
cowed that they deserted the polls and
that the repeaters had 1t all their own
way. Now there may be great deal
oftruth in the allegation of the. times,
indeed it may Be all true for 1t smacks
very much of the way in which the
election was carried in this city last
fall, only In Philadelphia the Repub-
licans seem to have been the offending
parties. We have no word OF excuse
to offer for the Republicans. If Mayor
Stockley's police did as is charged,
though their crimes were not half as
bad as those which the Democratic po-
lice of this city committed last fall,
they ought not only to be dismissed
from the force but they should be tried,
convicted and imprisoned. The time
has come when the good people Of all
parties will have to combine together
to punish these innovations upon the |
ballot-box which make our local cleo
tions farce and frolic for bad men.
We do not know whether the allegations
Of the "Times" are true or not but from
what we saw in our own city We are in
clined to think that they are true. In
our own city the Democrats had it all
their own way and having the power
used it by aiding over six hundred per-
sons to vote illegally, and oar idea Of
human nature is not so exalted as to
suppose that some Republicans, are
much better. No doubt there are Re-
publican policemen in Philadelphia as
bad as the Democratic policemen of this
,ity. If there are they should be prompt
ly dismissed from the force and punish
ed by the courts besides. The sacred.
ness and purity of the ballo.
must be protected if our free in
'titu'ions are to b preserved out if
policemen are to be allowed to knock ;
loWn, arrest and drag off to pris on
luietly disposed voters simply because
they differ with them in political views
nd opinions, there will soon be an
md to American liberty.

The DEMOCRATS on the committee on
Elections in the House Of Representa-
tives after q laborious season OF hard
work have succeeded in whiting away
. majority of 30l2 for Washburn in
Minnesota to majority Of l65 for Ig-
natius Donnslly renegade Republi.
oan and now a rampant Greenback
Democrat. What the Democrats want
Is another Democratic vote in the
House, and they care not where 1t
comes from or heW they get it SO that
they only get it. If Washbarn's ma
jority had been 1000 the Democrats
could have easily found some way for
overcoming it and declaring that some
body else was elected. The glaring at
tempt to steal Minnesota is SO outrage
ous and glaring piecs Of monstrous in
justice that there are some Demo-
Gratis who revolt from auy participation
in the attempt ard it may be barely
possible that the number is sufficiently
large to defeat the scheme. There is
one thing forces the Democrats in THAR
plundering attempt to steal Minnssota
and that is the effect It might have
upon the Democratic vote at the Presi-
Dental election. The people have got
30 in the habit now Of rebuking such
highhandsd outragss at the polls that
the Democrats are now brought to hesi-
tate before taking final leap into the
dark abyss of fraud which already sur
rounds them like q cloud of darkness.

are supposed to contain the names Of

SEVERAL REPUBLICANS have gone 10
pay their taxes to Mr.. Eliason the
st. Georges collector, and he has re-
fused to accept them, or we at least To-
fer as much from an article published
in last evenings "Gaze,ts." OF course
the latter uphOlds the collector simply
from the fact that faw votes will be
lost to the Republicans. Nothing more
could have been expected. Mr.. Fila
son may if he feels like it ch4at hun
dreds Of Republicans out of their vtes
in St. Georges, and the State ont of
hundreds of dollars, that he might have
collected had he tried, but that amounts
to nothing. MIR. E Jason it intimates
wont te bull-dozei into accepting these
taxes. Well tn IT'S the way to lut it.
Mr.. Eliason knows that these men are
assessed, and that they owe the county
taxes whicl he is enjOined to collect,
but he sees that by accepting such
taxes the persons who paid them will
be emitted to vote, and that would
never do in St Georges Hundred. Mean
while it will be noticed that there are q
larger number of DISTINGUISHED people
in St. Georges, aud that Mr.. Eliasop
though being collector OF one OF the
richest Hundreds in the County, 1T tn.

farther behind than any collector in

have to be paid by other taxpayers.
