LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov. Sat the Demo-
cratic mass meeting here tonight Henry
WattersOn said: 81 believe that the election
of Blaine and new grant of power to the
faction of which he is chief would have been
the end of free and fair elections in this
country. His defeat and its overthrow are
guarantees that the republic still lives, that
the YOters-nOt the Oticeholders-are the
masters of it, that the moral nature of the
people is yet equal to the great national
emergencies, that the government,
tury to the hands Of those from
whom it derives its being and
for whom it exists shall continue to be the
bell tower and buttress Of liberty and union

themselves, and the daY will come when they

'Well. 1t has come TO an end at last, bless

again they may swing us to the nearest sap

in this country it viii be on the north, not on
the south side of the line. In my Judgment,
however, the election OF Cleveland and the
change of parties it involves, has secured us
for at least a hundred years to come against
civil discOrd and domestic strife. Nay, more;
it will speedily Obiiterate all sectional lines.
North and South, like those of the East and
West, will stand simply for points of the COM
pass. All honor to Mir. Hendricks, and all

THE TINES VIEWS.
The London "Times" Sees Great Things
in Americas Future I,rosnects

LONDON, Nov. THE Times this morning,
in leader devoted to the American Presi-
Dental contest, says that it Is unlikely that
the result of the election Blaine is of great
gifts and is an accomplished speaker, but he
has unhappily identified himself with specu-
lative schemes and moneyed interests. Cleve-
land has few brilliant qualities. His public
career has been comparatively brief and mod
est, but he has shown a high sense of public
duty, and will faithfully discharge his trust
Wall street or demagogues. 1t is to be hoped
that Senator Bayard will accept Office under
Cleveland. Mr.. Bayard is a man of the high
est integrity and ability, and will not dis
credit the traditions of the best American di-
plOmacy. The Democrats must now prove
that they are true to the principles of public
purity and administrative reform. The re-
cent electoral contest. especially on the Re-
publican side, has disclosed the existence of
widespread corruption which has alarmed
honorable men in all paI ties,

dental question is settled by the Associated

the situation is unchanged, and that the ques

Mr.. Blaine has made no expression OF opln-

that he still believes the plurality claimed in
New York to be fraudulent, and thinks that
the true result can be ascertained only by a
careful scrutiny of the votes actually cast.

THE FRAUD CRY.
AIbany's "JOurnal' Claim that a Re-
publican was Counred Out.

ALBANY, n. Y, Nov. S.-The
Ecenin0 Journal CLAIMS to have
discovered what it calls "a glaring
fraud" in the Twelfth ward of this city. The
returns of two districts disappeared, and the
Journal reporter hunted them up to-day and
asserts that the figures were SO altered as to
elect the Democratic County Treasurer. The
figures of the Twelfth ward given to all the
papers of the city on the night of the election
elected the Republican County Treasurer.
The Journal says that 10 votes were changed
in order to count out the Republican. The
matter Is in the hands of ex-senator Harris.
If the ward is thrown out Cleveland will lose
3SS Totes. The Journal calls for prompt in
vestigatiOn.
In view of the assertions that frauds have
been perpetrated in the returns from the
Twelfth ward, in this city, Justice Clute to-
day began an investigation to see II crime
had been committed. A large number OF
witnesses were subpenaed, but owing
IN each case only four testified
Eugene Burlingame and @. s. Gregory con-
Quoted the examination on behalf of the Re
publicans. Those sworn were Alexander Sell
kirk, Robert Friday, Deputy County Clerk
Thomas Dolan, and Supervisor James j.
Wise of the Twelfth ward. The eXamin-
alton was then arrested owing to
the lateness of the hour. The disput5 re-
lates only to the vote for County Treasurer
and the Coroner. 1t is alleged that in one dis
trict new return, ard that forged one, was
other districts erasures by chemicals of the
true vote were made and a false set of fig
ures written in. The Republicans claim the
election of their candidate for County
Treasurer by majority, and the election of
their candidate for Coroner by US majority.
The Ar0us to morrow will say of the mat
ter:
''This makes out DrinH Jdcie case of ap-
garent fraud, to say the least. If the inquiry
confirms the allegation let the guilty be in
dicted, convicted and given the severest
sentence Of the law. Every honest man, be he
Republican or Democrat, is down on fraud,
whether for President or for county officer. a
king or constable, and gangs of men who
hang loose on both parties and who
bring elections here and elsewhere
into reprOach by frauds on the ballot or on
returns, are such enemies of the welfare of
the community that any and every one of
them caught plying their vocation should be
summarily punished to the full extent Of the
law"
Chairman Manning was questioned to-night
IN regard to the report published in
a Chicago paper that he had held back the
returns of Albany county, allowing 6lS to be
given out as Clevelands plurality in order TO
put the Republicans on record, and that lie
now announces that Cleveland has a plurality
of 3,64l. He said that the story was abso-
lutely false, and that the official majority in
Albany county is 90, and has not been
claimed to be otherwise since the votes were
counted.
