Express prints the following:
AUGUSTA Name, Nov. T.
10 Chairman B. +. JONES' Of the Republican Ma
am advised that there have been frauds COM
mtited in New York state. | believe that the
honest vote of the state gives republican plural

fair and honest count.

BLAINE ON THE SITUATION.
AUGUSTA, Me-, Nov. --latest ad-
vices received here from New York
are to the effect that the republican
committees, state and national, after
careful examination Of the whole
ground are satisfied that the state has
gone for Blaine and Logan. They
say that correct count will show
small republican plurality, and that
they have taken steps to establish the
fact. Mr.. Blaine's residence was
crowded all day. many prominent cit
izens from distant parts Of the state
arriving. Interest ia The result in
New York is growing deeper every
hour. This afternoon Blaine talked
freely about the situation. Hesaid to
distinguished citizen of Maine: $ I
feel entirely confident that the honest
vote of Now York without change Or
manipulation will show 3 plurality
for the republican electors of not less
than i, 500 votes. I do not speak idly
but from the most accurate data care
fully furnished me from the most com
petent sources" Blaine added that the
dispatch of Daniel Manning publish
ed yesterday contained the most arro-
giant and offensive threat to control
the election returns in the interest of
the democratic ticket ever made in
any northern state and equalled the
worst bull-dozing proclamations ever
issued IN the south. He thought its
effect would be to arouse the law bid
ing citizens of New York who cannot
afford to have their state reduced to
the level of lawlessness prevailing IN
South Carolina and Mississippi. The
gentleman asked Mr.. Blaine if he felt
much disappointed over the possible
prospect of losing the presidency by
such means. Mr.. Blaine answered: ::
Il do not feel so in any personal
sense, but profoundly so on
account of the vast national
LII eCiCSl acpSuCluS Oi GlC IOSu1G
feel great pride that no imputation
of fraud has ever been seriously ut
tered against the members of the re-
publican party in any state Or district.
[ do not believe the American people
will accept fraudulent result. The
republicans have carried the northern
states by more than 800, 900 majority,
and they dc not propose to have the
leading state taken from them by
fraud.
