After Kellogg, Hayes.
From the New York sun.

Prom the New YORK sun.
The great crime does not stop with Kel-
logg. If he WAS fraudulently elected to the
Senate, then Hayes was traudulently
chosen to the Presidency. The same cleo
tion returns, canvasscd by the same re-
turning board, which gave to Kellogg the
the legislature that sent him TO the Senate,
gave to Hayes the eight votes of Louisiana,
which made him President. They both
occupy the same ground, and should stand
or fall together and if Kellogg ought to
leave the Senate chamber, Hayes on sht 10
quit the White House.
True! They are both frauds, and
every principle of decency should all
monish their retirement out of very
shame. But they won't do it. Kel-
logg will probably be kicked out, but
the other will remain on the title given
him by the electoral commission fraud

CONSISTENCY is sometimes ap0stro-
phised as jewel, but we are inclined
to believe that it is jewel upon which
politicians do not always set very
high value. 1t will be remembered
how, at the extra session Of Congress
last spring, our amiable friend, Mr..
focum, voted with the Democrats in
all their endeavors to bring about an
entire repeal Of the odious Federal
election laws. These votes were held
out to the public by some of the sup
porters of Mr.. Yocum as conclusive
evidence of his independence Of party,
and OF his disposition to act fairly
and justly in matters Of legislation.
1t is not so now. On last Friday the
Democrats in Congress accepted the
reasonable and Just proposition of
Mr.. Garfield to modify these laws so
far rs to change the manner of ap-
pointing deputy marshals and provid-
ing further that they should be select,
ed in equal numbers from the different
political parties. Surely, if these laws
are 10 stand, nothing could be fairer
than to make the officials appointed
under them non-partisan, and yet,
what was our surprise on examining the
record TO find that Yocum voted
throughout the proceedings directly in
opposition 10 the views indicated by
his votes of last spring. On every call
of the yeas and nays he voted with
the Republican stalwarts against any
change or modification that would
give semblance of fairness to these
laws. As Artemus Ward sometimes
inquired, "Why is this thus ?"

The deficiency bill, making appro-
priation for the pay Of marshals, was
passed in the House of Representatives
on Friday last, after an exciting
debate Of four days. 1t contains a
proviso that hereafter special deputy
marshals Of elections for performing
duty in respect to any election shall
receive s. per day in full compensa-
tion, and that all appointments of such
special deputies shall be made by the
Judges of the United States Courts in
the circuits or districts in which such
marshals are to perform their duties !;
the deputies TO be taken in equal num-
bers from the different political par
ties. The bill also provides that they
shall be persons Of good moral charac.
ter, and that they shall be well known
residents of the voting precinct in
which their duties are to be perform
ed. Thus is the partisan character
Of these appointments eliminated from
the Federal election laws, and the
shameless partisan decision of the Su.
preme Court of the United States, in
a measure, shorn of its venom. The
Executive government under the law,
aud through the marshals, will not be
able, = formerly, 70 appoint an army
Of officers to be paid out of the Ma
ito al treasury TO serve rs Republican
bull-dozers at elections to control and

is to the credit of Gen. Garfield that be
favored this equitable and fair dispo-
sition of the controversy, as also to
Messrs. Kelley, Hiscock, Harris and
Rice, who sustained him in doing 80.
Although the cowardice of Garfield
afterwards, when his party denounced
the act, detracted somewhat from the
merit of its performance.

decided to hold the Democratic State
Convention at Harrisburg, on Wed.

TO be hoped that its deliberations will
be marked by harmony and wisdom,
and that in all things the best interests

ing upon the passage, last week, by the
lower house of Congress of the defcien-
cy appropriation bill, which changes
the mode of appointing deputy mar
shals to superintend elections, and pro-
vides that they shall be selected by the
courts in equal numbers from the diff.
ferent political parties, remarks that
''the debate was an illustration Of the
hollowness and humbua of the whole
Republican contention about the South.
More than one Republican besides Mr..
Garfield showed an intention not to
vote for good measures because they
were Democratic measures. In other
words, what the Republicans want is,
not redress of grievances, but a
grievance. Ten well authenticated
murders of negroes in the Southern
States would be cheap to the party at
almost any price. The Southern peo-
pie, however, with their usual fiendish
hatred to the Republican party, de-
cline to commit any murders, and
small crimes are the most that can be
hoped for. This is very pretty at
titude for national party to assume.
The Republican contention about the
deputy marshals is that the Demo-
cratic majorities in the South are the
result of fraud or force, and that
Federal, that is to say Republican,
supervision of elections in the South
is necessary. A compromise between
the Democratic position, that the dep
uty marshals should not be paid, and
the Republican position, that they
should be paid, and that they should
be Republican "workers," was offered
by Mr.. Garfield, so that half of them
should be Republicans and the other
half Democrats. This, if the law is
to stand at all, is so obviously fair and
decent, under the decision of the Su-
preme Court, that there can be no
objection to it. The Democrats ac-
cordingly, seeing that Mr.. Garfeld's
proposition would put them on the
wrong side of the issue which it rails
ed, cleverly adopted it. The aston
ishing result was that not only was
the proposition of the leader of the
opposition voted against by his follow
ers in mass, but that Mr.. Garfield
himself underwent the humiliation of
voting in the House against his own
measure after he had voted for ii in
Committee Of the Whole There is
nothing new in finding the Democrats
of the House clearly superior to the
Republicans in candor and in patriot
ism. 1t is less common to find them
clearly superior in political tactics !;
and the result of the proceedings
showed that the Democrats not only
had the best case, but knew better
than the Republicans how to make
the best use of their case"

AS was to be expected, the Senate
Committee on Commerce reports
against the confirmation of the son of
D. Madison Wells whom Mr.. Hayes
nominated to be Surveyor of the
port of New Orleans. The committee
states as reasons for their action that
the confirmation of the son would be
the same as the confirmation of the
father, besides numerous merchants,
whose names are found upon his papers,
telegraph that they did not recon-
mend Mr.. Wells and that their names
were forged. Everything old Wells
