Jeffersonan principles Once again hon
csty and integrity will take the place OF
that corruption which inevitably becomes
rampant when a party OF Oflce-holdcrs
continue too long in power.
In joyful thanksgiving for success and
10 properly celebrate our great victory,
hereby appoint Thursday evening, the
9Th inst, as the time for our general
State demonstration. Let each organiza-
ton turn out in their various cities and
towns upon that evening and in decor
Gus, though happy manner, parade ana
illuminate. Let there be no untoward
demonstrations which viii cause our fel-
low citizens of Republican proclyi-
ties to feel any il-will toward
Us. Rather invite them all, as |
now hereby do, to unite with Us
with grateful recognition Of the success
Of our republican form Of Government
when we see it demonstrated that Ma
ton Of 50,0O0,00O people can pcaceably
choose their chief by ballot.

keep up their organizations, aud use them

tered and for whatever other purposes

Alleged Tampering With Election Re-
turns.

NEW YORK, November 1.-THE four
inspectors Of the twcnty-fourth election
district OF the First Assembly District,
who were arrested on Saturday charged
with tampering with the election returns,
were arraigned yesterday before Justice
Duffy at the Tombs Police Court. Dur
ing the examination of the prisoners, it
was shown that a copy OF the canvass
had been found IN the Mayors ohlce
mixed up with tally she cts, 1t was also
shown they had been taken there by mis-
take by the Republican poll clerk of the
district, Gillian. A copy of the missing
canvass sheet was taken and the original
was sent 10 the County Clerks office.
Two other copies of the canvass were
made out at the Tombs, one OF which
will be sent 10 the Bureau Of Elections
and the other 10 the Board OF Super
ylsors. The prisoners were locked up
for the night, and to-day will furnish bail
for examination next Monday.

Jones Of the National Republican Com
mittee laid such great stress. The fact Is
generally overlooked in these shouts OF
frauds upon the part Of Cleycland's
friends that diminished majorities for
Cleveland are recorded In almost every
Democratic county in the State. Demo-
cratic frauds have hitherto always been
charged upon Democratic counties, and
there is where the Republicans have al
ways looked for them. This year the
absurd plea Is made that Democratic
frauds have occurred in Republican coun-
ties. The residents OF Republican
strongholds were not wont to permit
Democratic frauds in their midst, and 1t
is reasonable enough To suppose that they
have not tolerated it this year. Blaine's
friends are as inconsistent in their shouts
OF fraud as they have been in many other
matters during the campaign.

Destruction of Palatka.

The determination of the negro popula-

escaped the coniagration of Saturday
morning was again exempli6ed at two
O'Clock this morning. While passing over
his beat one OF the Citizens Vigilance
Committee surprised negro In an at
tempt TO set fire TO the only large block
which now remains in the place. Shay
ings, saturated with kerosene, had been
placed beneath an interior stairway
and the negro was just applying the
match when the blaze betrayed him.
Several shots were fred at him as he fled,
but none took effect. This act has In
creased the anxiety Of the whites, and
the citizens guard will be maintained in

incendiarism since the conhagration. 1t
Is understood that the incendiary arrested
on Saturday has been removed to the jail

his home in New Brighton, Staten Island,

his house and bowed his appreciation as
