THE PRETENDER KELLOGG As A
MARTYR.
PHILADELPHIA Times. |


That long suffering son OF sorrow,
William Pitt Kellogg, appeared before
the country on Monday, through a
speech made in the Senate, rs a poor,
prosecuted martyr. 1t was u spectacle
to mako an organ grind out tears.
Think of what that man has endured !
From the day that he carpet -bagged
into Louisiaua-flftcen years ago next
wcek-until this blessed hour, hc has
not had a moments peace. OAlce has
pursued him like n bloodhound, and
dodge AS he would, with that self de-
preciating and shrinking spirit for
which he Is noted, it has been impos-
sible for him to escape for more than u
month Mt a time.
Although stranger to Now Or
leans, in 1866 they made him Collector
of the Port, and various other things
involving little work and big salaries,
and made his life generally miserable
until 1865, when he was pounccd upon
and placed in the United States Senate,
Out of the Senate he was not allowed
even breathing spell. I'm fact, be-
fore he was fairly away from WASH
ingtOn he was condemned to four years
and light labor as Governor Of Louisi-
ana, and despite the fact that he was
not elected and didn't care Il fig for that
or any other Office in the gift of the
people. The outraged populace, anger
ed by this Outrage upon him aud upon
them, arose in their might one day and
kicked him from tho Executive Man.
sion to the Custom-house and from tho
CustOm-hOuse to the street. Then he
thought he would have peace. But
not 50. The strong arm of the United
States Government found him in tho
sewer, in which he was hiding, lifted,
him on the point of n bayonrt, put
him back into the Executive Chair
and made him stay there. In m evil
hour he consented to run for the Son

ator, and his own money being used to
keep these fraudulent legislators up to
their work, accepted the fraudulent
election and signed his own crcIcn-
tials. For nearly three years no has
had Il seat In the Senate without any
claim to 1t. And now il is actually
proposed to turn him out with some
dreadful object In pcri,aps, in
decd, to give tho President II chance to
send him on foreign mission, and
thus fastcn another Office and another
salary upon him. Truly, his plight is
a pitiablc one.
SO much for the Kellogg view Of the
case. CandlOr compcls the ndmis5i0n,
however, that some people took at 1t
in another way. This man, they say,

crib. He never was true to Il friend,
except an accomplice, and then only
so far as was necessary to protect him
self, and never dared face an enemy
except at long range and with words as
weapons. He never held an office to
which he was appointed. His public
trusts have been administered solely
with q view to his own aggrandize-

wired them. The last dispatch received,
which reports and increased democratic
majority, was the first Of its kind received
here, and lut strengthens the belief that
the association is up to its old tricks. The
present outlook is that the democrats have
carried Indiana by respectable
majority, and it IS our belief
that that majority is in the
neighborhood of five thousand. It
was not expected by even the most sanguine
that greater majority would be given,
since it was taken into consideration
that the republicans have been guilty Of
nearly every questionable practice that
would in any degree contribute to their
success without arousing the people Of the
state to open rebellion. Their schemes have
been asdeep laid they were unprincipled,
and as faithfully carried out by dishonest
hirelings, as they were destructive Of the
very essence Of rcpnblicanism. The party

infamous programme, which made him so
notorious in the city of New York in 1878.
But besides this, the managers Of the cam.
paign have for the last six months been sys-
tematically engaged in the practice of i'm
porting negroes from Kentucky and Ten
nessee and the white roughs OF Philadel
phia and New York to be used as so many
instruments in the hands of the manager,
in the election of the republican state
ticket Even from the city of Springfield
in this state, over hundred negroes were
shipped on midnight trains at the expense
Of influential republicans TO help the party
IN Indiana. Money was spent recklessly
and openly, and in fact, the power Of the
entire party in all It's varied forms, was
centred upon these states. The democrats
though vigilant and doing all they could
to prevent any fraudulent voting, could
not succeed in their purpose against such
overwhelming odds and hence the result
But IN November, when all
the powerful political machinery can not be
concentrated upon these states, more en-
couraging result may be looked for.
