TEE Star route consplrators have been
discharged from custody. The pubic
will learn of this with Indignation. The
conspirators only escape through a
technically. The blame is to be divi-
ded between ex-President Hayes, ex
Postmaster General Key, and District
Attorney Corkhill. Gen. Tyner afhrms
that he exposed these frauds to Hayes
and Key in 1873, but they declined TO
prosecute because it would hurt the
party. The history of the matter Is IN
brief that the otfenses Of the accused
in swindlinp the Government through
fraudulent mail contracts were alleged
to have been committed before the LIST
of October. 1873. The Federal statutes
provide that Infamous crimes must be
proceeded against within three years
from the time Of their commission, #
at all, and q constitutional provision
makes necessary IA presentation OF such
cases by grand jury as a preliminary
to prosecution. The cases IN question
should therefore have been presented
by the grand jury Of the District previ-
GUS to Oct. 1st of the present year, as IS
well known, no move was made until
the administration Of Garfield began to
collect evidence The necessary time
consumed in collecting this evidence
took the cases over the time allowed by
the statute for indicting by Grand Jul
ry, and in order TO get then in within
the required time an Information was
filed by the representative OF the AT
torney-General This information has
been thrown out on the ground that
there is no authority for proceeding IN
such manner There will doubtless,
and Justly too, be wide spread excite
ment over this travesty ON justice and
farcial attemps to execute the laws.
Considering the interests involved
the up-holding ola higher standard of
morality in public men, the discourage
ment of official rascality which is a
leayen Of fraud that extends its intlu.
ence through all society, the vindication
of the courts as halls of justice, the re-
straining of popular contempt for stat
utory enactmenls and legal proceed
considering all these, some
measures should have been adopted
and carried out, that would have
brought condign punishment upon
these brazen conspirators

JUDGE Cox, of Washington. quashed the

A DISPATCH from Washington says that
public sentiment has developed at no
time anything like an attempt to take
Guiteau off the hands of justice The as
sassin himself is so well convinced of his
personal safety in the custody of the Off
GERS of the law that he has gotten rid of
the craven fear that had so nearly made
him i'll previous to his being taken to the
court the first time. He attributes this
change of sentiment to the inevitable
coming around to his side, and he is
making preparations with great calmness
for a visit to Europe and lecture tour
after his trial is over, and when he is tri-
umphantly acquitted.

The San says: Neither party has
elected the entire state tickt. So far as
complete returns show, Carr, rep. can
dldate for secretary of state, runs ahead
of his ticket in nearly every county and
is probably elected by 1000 plural
ity over Purcell; Maxwell (dem. J, for
treasurer, defeats Hustled rep. J, ~ an
estimated majority of 10000 to 1900.
The figures are insufficient on the rest
of the state ticket to indicate the re-
suit Each party claims the election
of its ticket by 1000. The official
count will be nece ssary to determine
the result. The majority will prob
ably be only a few hundred
either way. The democrats have car
ried the legislature by eight or ten on
3 joint ballot. The senate will stand
IL democrats to 10 republicans. The
assembly will be comprised of So demo-
Gratis and 60 republicans. One or two
doubtful districts have not been heard
from, but they will not wipe out the
the majority Of the democrats even if
conceded to the republicans.
