PLEADING THE BABY ACT.

The fever and excitement Of n protracted
campaign eliminated in the declared result
after the closing of the polls on Tuesday
night, the ID of November. Then came
the declarations and determinations of the
canvass. These were followed on the side
of the victorious army with the shouts and
demonstrations of triumph. On the other
side came disappointment, chagrin and
sorrow When these had passed away all
parties and all sides anticipated Il return
of all the popular elements to condition
Of homOgeneity where the passions and
preiudices of active strife should be sunk
in the waters of peace and fraternity. But
instead Of such a following we are now
admonished that we are to emerge from
the strife of a decisive battle into u scene
of contention over causes which are i'm
puted to the contest as tending to estab-
lish the inyalidity Of the declared verdict.
Prominent among the disturbing forces of
the occasion we find the chief trumpeter of
the democratic party ut the national capi-
tal sounding the notes of future strife when
wisdom, right and justice counsel peace
and fraternity among all our people. That
we shall not be accused Of m sreprcsentu-
ton we quote from the inccndiary utter
nuces Of the organ Of yesterdays issue.
We give the article entire, that It's clarac-
ter may be fully understood and its in
cendary attempt may be duly appreciated
and guarded against Here it is in all its
length and breadth Of infamous and dam
gerous purpose:
Tho majority in the state of Now York for
the GARFIELD electoral ticket, as shown ON
the face Of the returns, is loss than 2O,O0O 1t
is highly probable that 10000 illegal ballots
were cast for it in the three cities of New
York, Brooklyn aud Buffalo.
It is also highly probable that between
10000 and 10000 votes were openly purchased
for the GARFIELD ticket in the two cities of
Brooklyn and New York, and that a large
proportion OF the cases can be proven.
As the electoral vote Of the state Of New
York determines the presidential contest,
General GARFIELD will, il he receives it, owe
his place to Il stupendUus systcmatized fraud

WHAT WE PROPOSE TO 20.

Some good friend, probably of the demo-
cratic persuasion, sends us postal card
without signature, begging us to let up on
our defeated and crushed opponents. This
may not be an unreasonable request, but
when our mournlul friend reviews the can
vass and considers how red.hot everybody
became during its continuance he must see
that 1t is not safe to cool off too suddenly.
Give us little time and we will become
as mild as balmy spring and as genial as
loyeliness itself Only give us time 10 sup
press the memories of calumnious and
cruel campaign that has been pushed mer-
cilessly against the republican standard
bearer for almost five long months without
excuse or justification, and we shall no
longer offend the most tender sensibilities
of the afflicted BE patient and forbearing
BE considerate and indulgent until the po-
htical furnace, which has been heated
seven times above its usual temperature,
shall have returned to its normal state;
then we hope to commend ourselves to the
favor and affection ofrepublican and demo-
crat alike in our daily intercourse with
them. Malice toward none and charity
for all" shall be our guiding motto in the
future, though we cannot surrender the
orthodox belief altogether in future state
and punishment for unrepented sins after
death. Nevertheless, it shall be our aim
to treat the mourners tenderly and afford
some little aid in assuaging their flood of
grief.
Now that the fever of politics is rapidly
giving place to q more healthy and placid
condition, THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN
will get down to business as local and
general newspaper aud render itself so at
tractive to all classes of readers that even
the democrats will seek it as a medium
of business and information. 1t has at
tanned large and rapidly increasing cir
culation, which renders it of great useful
ness as an advertising medium. 1t circu-
lates more largely, perhaps, among republi-
cans than among democrats and the future
political character of the government be-
ing assured for the next four years, with
no prospect OF any material change in the
political complexion of its employees except
perhaps, that the late result will render
them more distinctly republican in opinion
and feeling in the future than heretofore
THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN will be the
accredited representative Of the party in
power, and hence will become established
politically,os as it is already financially, upon
a solid basis. In addition TO all this it will
devote its best abilities and energies to sus-
taining and building up the material in
terests Of the District and It's people, and
thus render itself acceptable to all classes
of opinion and business interest and make
itDclf power in journalism.

WHY THE SOUTH IS SOLID.

The south is solid because of the loss of
property and the insecurity of person under
so'called republican rule In the southern
states burnt child breads the fire. The
people OF tho southern states were, and are,
determined to have just and honest govern.
ment at home. Besides this, they are sincerely
desirous of perpetuating republican institu.
TONS Charleston Neirs and Courier.
If this is the southern view of the "solid
south and the causes which have led to it,
it is evidently based upon total misap-
prehension Of history and fact as the record
of the past reveals it. Whatever "loss of
property" has been incurred there came
through the events and consequences of
the war for which the south is solely re-
sponsible.
The south lost its slaves, which IL would
not have done if 1t had not attempted to
break the national unity and destroy tile
republic. In every other respect it has far
more wealth in property than ever before,
II we are to believe southern authority; and
what is more, it is richer intrinsically than
it would have been had slavery continued
us an institution. 1t always was q curse to
that section, and the more candid of the
southern people now admit it as fact.
Then again, there was no insecurity to
person in any southern state that became
matter of recorded history until the ku
klux, night-liners and rifle clubs were Or
ganized as democratic institutions with
which TO overtum the right of suffrage and
the republican party. Under that reign
OF terror, right, life and property were all
rendered insecure and have been to
greater or less extent ever since. If these
are relied upon in the south for the pur-
pose OF perpetuating republican institu-
tions" they are as novel rs secession
was as an agent for perpetuatiug the
union, and will never challenge pub
lie confidence and favor ut the north.
1t is this system of pretense that de-
stroys northern confidence and respect
and stands rs n barrier between the nation
and its unity, good fellow ship aud the mu-
tual respect of its people.
National Republican., 1880-11-09

by both parties Ifone or thirty thousand pur-
chased or fraudulent votes have been counted
they should be thrown out regardless of con.
sequences.
The country looks to the democratic ma.
tional and New York state and city authori-
Ties to begin the investigation at once. 1t
must be thorough, open and conclusive.
lhere are honest men enough i'm the United
states who voted for both Garfield and Han.
cock to tnaugurnte the man who was honestly
elected, and there are not dishonest men
enough to prevent It.
The charges must be either proven or with.
drawn. General GARFIELD must 20 into the
Mhlte House with an honest ajOrity behind
him or not at all.
1t is a rule of law and right that no
party or man shall be allowed to take adj
vantage of their own rascalities TO work
public mischief aud effect their own escape
from the just consequences of their own
crimes. The plea that thirty thousand ille-
gal votes have been cast in the three cities
Of New York, Brooklyn and Buffalo is the
last resort for bringing future disturbance
and excitement to tho popular mind. This
allegation is made by the democrats and
nobody else, and, admitting that the facts

who is responsible for these rascnlities
Whose votes have been purchased Not
those of republicans, for they were the
legitimate estate of the republican party.
SO no republican sold his vote, and hence
no republican is responsible for the tide of
corruption which is now represented as
having foated President GARFIELD into
power If the democrats were depraved
enough to sell thirty thousand votes to
their opponents, which we do not admit,
then it would seem to be the most abicct
shamelessness on their part to set up their
own rascality asa reason why the election of
General GARFIELD shall be overturned and
the manifest will of the American people
shall be subverted. 1t is time this nom
sense gave way 10 higher motives and
promptings Of action. The attempt to
plead the baby act over the cities of New
York and Brooklyn, where the democrats
had all the machinery of the election in
their own hands, is simply pucrile, ridicu-
lous and shameful, and should be secuted
by every respectable democrat in the coun-
try.

general scare was added a telegram from ro l..
publican sources claiming Buncombe county
with miraculous republican gains, and another
OF the same character from Raleigh claiming
a republican gain Of 5000 in sixty-six coun.

AN HONEST CONGRESS.

The incoming congress has one duty to
perform, not only to ITSELF but TO the
country, which it will assuredly discharge
with faithfulness unless we entirely mis-
apprehend its character and sense of right
and justice. 1t is high time that the
people of the United States should be
taught that honest elections must prccede
the occupation of seats in the house of rep-
resentatives of this nation. They must
learn that rascality of any sort or intimi-
dation of any character cannot he recor-
nized rs stepping-stones to seats in that
body. We have had too much of that in
the past for the credit of congress and the
welfare Of the country. The three last con-
gresses have presented marked instances of
the subverting of the popular will and the
character of the government by corrupt
and illegal agencies. The political char
actcr of the ehouse of representatives. during
these congresses and that of the present
senate has been changed from republican
to democratic by gross subverson of the
popular will in the south. This thing has
been tolerated much longer than the ma
tional well-being will justify, aud it is
nigh time that remedy should be applied
TO this crying evil.
Let the next house, therefore, draw the
line closely between rascality and honest
elections and allow no member, no matter
from what state or district, to occupy n
seat under an evident despoilng of any
party or people Of their suffrage under anv
pretext whatever. Any representative who
claims n seat in the house of representa-
tives under n certificate which clearly
covers a suppression of the popular voice
by intimidation or fraud of any character
which has shaped the result, should be
promptly excluded from n seat as men,
Der, and either the contestant should be
seated or the case should be referred back
to the people; and this policy should be
pursued until the legislative department of
this government shall be constituted of
members who represent a majority of the
people, that majority being ascertalned
under an election in which every
voter is permitted to vote once and have
HIS NOlc HoHGSlly COullltu. Ill Inc llte
election this issue was brought prominently
to the front and was pronounced upon by
the popular Judgment, and the verdict as
presented in the result is clear and deci-
sive. The people demand and will insist
upon free and honest elections, and they
will not hold the next house of representa-.
tives blameless if it does not inaugurate
effective reforms in this regard and provide
ample safeguards against intimidation and
fraud in the future elections relating to this
government. 1t has the power and il will
be held responsible for its wise and Just
exercise, AT every other point this nation
is strong, but in its elections, where the
of the republic depends upon
an honest and free ballot and a fair count,
it is weaker by far than it should be,
and Mt that point ceutres the great danger
to republican institutions. We do not in
this line Of remark refer to trumped-up
claims, but only to those where iutimida-
ton and fraud have clearly shaped the re-
suit
National Republican., 1880-11-09

THERE are many causes for congratula-
tion in viewing the recent contest in Mis-
souri,. The democratic majority is reduced
in the state at large; several local contests
resulted unfayorably for hntpOrty, and
the republican phalanx in the legislature is
much strengthened. But tits the breaking

NORTH CAROLINA HAS A SCARE.

If one-hundrcdth part OF the effort and
money spent by republicans to carry In-
diana had been spent in eastern North
Carolina the ten votes of that state would
have been added to the GARFIELD column.
The western part of the state shows large
republican gains over 1876, and if the east
ern part had held its own there would have
been republican victory. As il was the
democrats were badly scared, for day or
two. The Charlotte Observer Of Saturday
said:
1t Is needless to say that for the past
twcnty-fcur hours much solicitude has been
felt In reg1d 10 how the late election would
count w for the state tickets Of the rpspcc.

verse was realized IN MCcklenLurg and then
