result Of the official canvass, and advise
all Republicans to be cool in action and
language. The Democratic scarecrow
about altering returns is the silliest non
sense. Returns were filed in the Offices
Of the clerks OF the several counties four
days ago, and the only alternative now
possible Is In the judicial revision, to
which both parties must bow. Develop

Only the Official Count.

NEW YORK, November l0-The Tribune
says; awe can see no occasion to change
the opinion that only tho official count
can determine the result of the election
in this State; and that 1t is likely 10 show
a small plurality for Blaine. The Demo-
Gratis themselves only count now on a
little less than $50 plurality In the
State. This, the errors, or worse,
already discovered would more than
wipe out The whole canvass
must be- conducted with the ut
most openness and under the most rigid
legal scrutiny--with resort to the proper
courts whenever necessary. Then, II the
fair count gives Governor Cleveland a
plurality of only a single vote, he will be
inaugurated. If it gives Blaine plural
ity, no matter how small, he will be in
augurated. Buster and threats may
promote disorder, for which those who
use them will be responsible, but will
not be permitted TO affect the inevitable
result"

experience in supervising election returns
or watching count of votes, il is not

people will be defeated in this State,
The excellence of existing election laws,
the intelligence and patriotism of the
people, and the courage and vigilance of
both parties may be relied upon to defeat
any such scheme. You may be sure of a
fair count in this State.
