or disproviug the truth of this charge
exist other than taking the aflidavits of
all tho votcrs OF tho election districts as
to how they actually voted, and such
process Is impracticablo.
In many of tho states tho ballots cast
arc required 60 be preserved for pre-
scribcd period of time. 50 that in case Of
contest they eau b, scrutinized and re-
counted. II the lawsof tho state of New
York contained such q sensible provision
now some very interesting revelations
might grow out Of a judicial examination
Of thc tickets deposited In the ballot
boxes on the It'll day Of November. The
possibility that Cleveland will occupy the
white houss for four years through hav-
ing had Buffers electoral votes counted
for him should lead the New York legis-
laturo to so amend their laws that here-
after II will be possible to examine the
tickets voted at any election il charges Of
fraud afford good reason for tho exami-
nation.
National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1884-11-17

Mr.. Cleveland is elected President Of
the United States. The canvass Of tho
votes cast in the state of New York set
ties this conclusively.
So long as there was a reasonable doubt
Of tho result in that state no such cOnces.
sion could be made. The presidency was
not to be settled By the incendiary threats
of Dan Manning, tho war whoop of Chair.
man German, or the insolent assump-
tions Of democratic newspapers. A very
large vote had been polled in tho state.
The totals had been returned in such u
form that no two authorities agreed ~ to
what had actually occurred. Claims of
bon apparently good authority, which,
Jsubstantiated, would defeat Mr., Cleve-
land. In any event, 1t was apparent that
the lawful canvass would show that
neither candidate had anything but tho
narrowest margin in his favor. Elections
in the past had shown that n slight
apparent majority, based upon unofficial
returns, frequently melted away in the
state of Now York undor the rigid scrutiny
Of au official canvass. Under all the
circumstances the republicans would
have been foolish to couCede Cleveland's
election in advance of lawful establish
ment of the fact. SO long as there was
q chance that the claims advanced by
their national and state central commit
tees in boholf Of Mr.. Blaine might have
their correctness lawfully demonstrated,
il was the plain duty Of republicans and
republican newspapers to firmly insist
upon having the issue Of the great con-
test decided by the methods prescribed
by tho laws of tho state of New York.
Tho canvass has now been made, and
the conclusion is in favor Of Cleveland
and democracy. This fact has been law
fully established, and the republican party
will promptly and Loyalty acknowledge
1t. II is with unfcigned regret that we
record the result; but wo know that no
republican will offer any factious opposi-
tion to giving up tho rcina Of control to
democracy. The republican party Is a
party of law and order. IL has record
of glorious deeds In steering the ship 0I
state. It has boon wise and strong iu
control, and 1t will be equally wise and
strong during its temporary relief from
responsibility. 1t has been defeated by
its own robellious members, and not by
democracy. II was never stronger before
the people than it is to-day, and will again
be called TO administer the affairs of the
nation in the not far distant future.

DEPARTMENT NOTES.

1t is estimated that the payments from the
treasury during the present month on account
of pensions viii amount to nearly Sl3,OOO,OOO.
Secretary McCulloch said recently, in reply
to an inquiry on the subject, that he does not
deem it eSpedient to call in any more bonds
at present.
In Saturdays quotations for silver standard
silver dollars are quoted as worth 81 cents as
as bullion. 1t is believed at the treasury de-
partment that there will bo q further decline
In silver, and that the value OF standard and
trade dollars will diminish accordingly.
The comptroller of the currency has ex-
tended the corporate existence OF the follow low
ing-named national banks to Nov ID, 1906:
Tho Mechanics National bank, of Newbury-
port, Muss.; the Warren National bank, of Pea.
body, Mass; the Peoples National bank of
kOxbury, Boston, Mass; the Toledo National
bank, Of Toledo, Ohio; the Third National
bank, Of Providence, II. l.
Gen. Adam Badeau, formerly consul general
at London and more recently consul general
at Havana, against whom the government has
n claim for ABOUT $1,000 on account of notarial
fees alleged TO have been Illegally retained,
has applied to the treasury department to have
the case referred to the court of claims for
arbitrament. The secretary OF the treasury
has declined the application, on the ground
that the law applicable to the reference of
cases to that court by the executive depart
ments refers to claims against the government
and does not apply to cases where the govern
case is now in the hands of the solicitor of
the treasury, with instructions from the first
comptroller to institute proceedings TO recover
the amount In dispute

FOREIGN MAILS.
Annual Report OF Superintendent Crawford
Cost Of the Service tho Last and Estimate
for the Next Fiscal Year.

Cost Of the Service tho Last and Estimate
for the Next Fiscal Year.
The report of james 8. Crawford, superin-
tendent OF foreign mails, for the last fiscal year
shows that compared with the weights of mail
dispatches during the preceding year the in
crease of letter and post card mails was 3.4l
per cent, and OF printed matter and samples
6.36 per cent.
The total cost of the maritime service for the
fiscal year was sl93 22l Of which amount o s2IS..
trans Pacific, and S37, ,l32 Tor the West India,
Mexican, Canadian, New Foundland, and
Central and South American services.
The expenditures of the year on this account
exceeds those of the preceding year by Sl5,G99,
or nearly per cent.
So far as settled the transit and postage ac-
counts relative to the exchanges for the year
trations and credits received by the United
States to the amount of Si05,623, of which
SlU2, S67 represents the credit by the British
office for the territorial transit OF British and
Australian closed mails.
The amounts estimated as necessary for ap-
proprlatlons for foreign mail service for the iis
cal year 1886 are $4,000 for ocean mail
transportation and $1,000 for balance due for
eign countries, including the United States
portion of the expenses of the international
bureau of the postal union, making a total of
100000.
The estimate for ocean transportation is
based upon the allowance OF the sea hostages
only. II in pursuance of section 1909, Revised
Statutes, tho full sea and inland postagcs be
allowed and paid for the conveyance of the
mails by all United States vessels additional
provision by congress will be required.
The total number of letters sent from the
United States was 33,32SOlI; received, 2S, S,i0l,-
035; postal cards sent, l,6Ia45s; received,
1,2SS,673; newspapers and printed matter pieces
sent, 2O7l2,i6i; received, 2l,747,74. 1t thus
appears, says the superintendent in conclu-
sion, that OF the correspondence exchanged
$3.50 per cent. of the letters, 5G.iS per cent. OF
the postal cards, and 4S.7S per cent. of the
newspapers were dispatched from the United
Stalps

THE unearthly howl raised by the
democrats over the presence of United
States DEPUTY marshals at tho polls in
Cincinnati at the October election will bo
remembered. From Hendricks and Hoad-
ly down tho cry went up that the result
-theroswus due TO ,he, Intimidation caused
by tho appointment Of tho deputy
marshals. But in the lato election, when
no deputy marshals were appointed, and
fhe democrats had the election machinery
in their own hands, Cincinnati increased
her republican majority about two thou
sand over the October figures. Upon the
face of these returns Hendricks, Hoadly,
and tho democratic party In general seem
to have lied about the October election in
Cincinnati.

THE interview with Mr.. Blaine which
appears to-day will attract much atton-
ton. Ills manly and composed attitude
will raise him in the estimation Of tho
country. 1t will be observed that he
places high estimate upon the aid ron
dcred the republican party by the Irish
Americans, and is confident that tho
tendency OF that class of voters to como
over to the republican party is bound to
increase in tho future. If Mr.. Blaine
feels any strong personal disappointment
over his defeat, his words fail to show it,
his concern being solely upon the ac-
count Of the republican party,
