THE lection outrages Of ever iEaa sin-

make the angels weep. They were
perpetrated to elect the regular Demo
cratic ticket over the Independent

Democratic press and the honest Demo-

the loudest in denouneing the frauds.
The Pieayune, which favored the sue
cessful ticket, says in a double-leaded
leader
"Au good citizens will b. shocked at the
crime which has been committed within the

SOME of the public journals are rather
toofast in attributing the Republican
reverses in the late election to the Riv-
er and Harbor bill. The election is
claimed as a Democratic victory, and it
must be remembered the bill received
the support Of both parties in about
equal proportion. Besides, the measure
was vetoed BY the Republican Pres
ident, and passed by the votes Of both
parties over the veto. The country is
not prepared to condemn the policy Of
improving navigablerivers. Ithas been,
and is still, the accepted rule Of all
parties, that internal Improvements
when demanded b. the necessities Of

The NevYork Sun, commenting upon
the discredit which Justices Strong,
Bradley and Miller brought upon the
Supreme Court of the United States in
sanctioning the frauds which were per-
petrated by the Electoral Commission
in changing the votes of several States
upon mere pretended informalities, says
that it is an open secret that Justice
Harlan was appointed to the bench of
that high tribunal as reward for his
services to Hayes in Louisiana; and
charges in reference to the appointment
of Stanley Matthews what is more seri-
Gus still, that it was the product of the
bargain between the late Garfield and
Jay Gould, the corporation magnate
by which the latter contributed a
large sum of money for the election of
the former as President The Sun says
the name of Matthews does not appear
in the written agreement, which still
exists, if it has not recently been de-
stroyed. But Garfield agreed to appoint
Judge adverse to the Thurman act,
compelling the Pacific Railroad corpo-
rations to set apart portion of their
earnings to indemnify the government
for interest advanced on their bonds
Matthews had been the attorney of the
Pacific Railroad corporations in the SEN
ate during the memorable contest which
ended in the defeat of Gould, Hunting
ton, and their associates in 1873. The
Sun gives furthermore, as part of the
unwritten history of the times, that
when Garfield still hesitated about the
appointment of Judge Robertson as Col.
lector of this port, he was threatened
with the publication of the agreement
relating to Matthews. The threat
brought him to terms very quickly.
The publication of the agreement
would have proven the late Presidents
corrupt collision in the disposal of a.
seat on the Supreme Bench.

NOTWITHSTANDING the large majority

some very thorough work done in the

that the Democratic House Committee
on Elections will commit its first blum
der in this direction. A large number
of Republican Congressman have been
elected this year by very small ma

Hon. Randall Gibson says that the
Republican party at the last session of
Congress brought forward bill "to
maintain the system of internal revenue,
all the monopolies Of the present tariff,
to keep up all the exorbitGnt rates on
blankets, on clothing, on everything
worn, or consumed, or needed for the
laboring man, and they then simply
throw sugar overheard. That is, they
proposed to keep up the exorbitant
duties upon the articles which the Nor
thern and Eastern monopolists are
interested in, and to cut down the tariff
on sugar, a Southern production. To
say the least of it, the proposition is
wholly unjustifable.- The correct plan
will be TO reduce the duties on every
protected article to revenue standard,
without reference to geographical con-
siderations, The duty on sugar is
seventy per cent. On blankets, cloth
ing and the like, it is about the same.
Mr.. Gibson will have no more right to
complain of the Republicans for making
the determinations which he attributes
to them, than they would have to COM
plain of him for advocating reduction
of the ddty on blankets, ETC., and
keeping up the duty on sugar. A tax
which increases the cost of either for
the benefit of class, is equally unjust,
and the Democratic party is committed
by its pledges against the whole system
of discrimination.

The Times-Democrat, the paper Q
Major Burke, State Treasurer, says:
The Hawaiian Reciprocity Treaty.

The New York Times, referring to the
question of sugar classification, says
"If the Hawaiian reciprocity treaty had
not been from the first little more than a
Job, and not far removed from scandalous
job at that, the evidence of its mischieyous
working would bring its authors TO con-
sciousness of its recklessness."
The fact that this treaty was ga scanda-
lOus job from the first and has only beue-
fitted the Claus Spreckles Sugar Ring. The
people Of the Pacific coast have not had the
benefit of lower prices for sugar, and the
treaty remains an exceptional and unJustl-
fable discrimination against other friendly
sugar producing nations, who consume large
Quantities of American goods. Tie treaty
was drawn in such way that 1t continues in
definitely unless notice Is given at the ead Of
scUen years that IRE desire to aGrogate 1t. And
when this question was agitated last winter
in Washington, Spreckles retained ex-Sena-
tor Boutwell,, and by liberal expenditure
of money with certain newspaper cores
pondents, succeeded in squelching the thing
for the time being. 1t is one of the mean
est little jobs that was ever put through
Congress, and one OF those which have gone
to make up the SUN of Republican misrule
which is driving all the decent element of
shat party into the Democratic ranks. 1t
should be one of the very first things to re-
ceiVe the attention of Democratic Con
gress. y
The duty on sugar and salt, which
are both necessaries Of life, will
be repealed or materially modified il
the Democratic party should obtain
control of the Government, provided ii
is true to its pledges; but why the dis
elimination was made in favor of the
Northern companies who own the Ha-
waiian interest we have never been able
to find out.
