SOME of the striking streetcar drivers at

property of the company for which they
refused to work, have attempted to blow up
Car by the use Of giant powder, thus imperil-

this unless unqualifedly denounced, can but
prejudice the people against the drivers, and

FRAUD seems to have got in its perfect
work in Cincinnati, and on the face of the re-
turns the entire Democratic legislative ticket
is declared to be elected. There is yet pro-
ceeding before the court relating to the four
senators, but the certificates will be issued to
the ten Democratic members of the House.
The Republicans protested against the count
ing of FIVE precincts, where the Irregularities
were simply outrageous, and where The Demo
cratic pluralities aggregate 1,542, largely more
than the pluraities by which any of
the candidates are declared to be elected.
If such glazing frauds and farces are to be
tolerated as were practiced at these precincts,
and the party which practiced them is to
enjoy the usufruct, then there is no use in
attempting to hold popular elections. The
rule OF law that fraud vitiates everything it
touches should be vigorously applied to such
practices as disgraced civilization in Cincin-
natl. If the returns from these five precincts
cannot be purged, then they should be thrown
out. That is the only way to prevent such oc-
currences in the future. Were these precincts
thrown out the entire Republican ticket would
have been elected, as it undoubtedly was by
the legal electors of the county, could their
will be expressed. AS it is the voice of the
legal voters is stifed by practices that will
long defame the character of Cincinnati. The
nominal plurality Of Judge Hoadly in Hamil-
ton county is GAG. The declaration in Hamil-
ton county does not affect the fact that the
Republicans have joint majority of three in
the Legislature.

A CORREsP oNDENT of the Louisville Cour-
ier-Journal writing from Staunton, Va, says:
whatever the result of the pending canvass
may be, there is a perceptible diminution of
the buster and brag with which it began on
both sides. In this county of Augusta, where
Democratic majorities fairly 60 above one
thousand, Wise had an audience, last week,
of nearly three thousand people, whom he re-
spectfully addressed and who gave him re
spectful hearing" This is remarkable ad-
mission. Is it so exceptional that Virginia
Democrats hold respectful meetings, make re-
spectful speeches and enjoy respectful hear
ing. that it must be heralded abroad! 1t GER
tainly is an improvement over the bloody
shirt, confederate-gray way of riding over the
country and terrorizing the people. The news

A SPECIAL meeting of the City Council was
| called last night, of which every member had
notice The Democratic members, under the
lead of the eminent Coy and Bowling, con-
cluded they could break quorum by absent
ing themselves expecting that all Democrats
would obey their demand, and that they would
be joined by two or three Republicans who
were opposed to the on5-hundred- dollar tax
ordinance. But they reckoned without their
host. The result was demonstration of the
power of public opinion aroused on just
proposition. Councilman Haugh, of the
Tenth ward, responded to his duty, appeared
at the meeting, and voted for the ordi-
nance. All the Republican members
of the Council were present except Mr..
Cowie There were thirteen present, and the
ordinance passed by vote of II to 1-Mr.
Benjamin voting in the negative. Mr.. Whar-
ton redeemed himself for his absence on Mon
day night by being in his seat and voting
with the majority. The ordinance will pass
the Board of Aldermen at the next meeting,
and will be then in force.
The low-tax men hope to be able to repeal
it in the next Council, and the contest of Mr..
Pritchard's seat in the Aldermanic Board will
now be prosecuted with renewed vigor. But
we do not believe the next CouLcil will dare
repeal the ordinance. Mr. Benjamin and
Mr.. McGroarty, two Republicans understood to
be opposed to the passage of the ordinance,
we are quite certain will not feel called upon
to unite under the banner of "Sim" Coy for
its repeal. Besides, there will be Democrats,
other than Mr.. Haugh, who will
not consider themselves bound to
vote in the interests of the saloons.
We therefore feel reasonable certainty that
the one-hundred dollar saloon tax has come to
stay, until the State Legislature gives munich
palities the authority to put the tax at high
err and more reasonable figure. In this be-
lief we tender our compliments to
those who have worked so faithfully
and necessarily at this matter, and our sincere
coincidence to the misguided saloon men who
have wasted their money in a lost cause. Pos
sibly, hereafter they will remember the phi

The New York Sun notes Mary Anderson's
disappointment at the GOODNESS of her reception
after the first night, although but just home
from triumphal experience in London. The
Sun significantly explains that ''this is usually
to be expected when the audience is composed
of rustics, must be the case when such a
sum as $3.50 is charged for seat, the same
as Rachel and Bernhardt asked" There is
dual lesson in these few words Miss Ander-
son and other players Of her grade must learn
that the people of New York, in distinction
from the transient visitors who are there for
day and gone tomorrow, are too discrin-
mating to pay So. so for an article that is
worth but $3.50, or even less. If she wants
appreciation" and applause at the right time.
she must fix her admission price at such
rate as the Select are willing to pay. She
may take choice-a house full of "rustcs'
and money, or a house full of the elite and
applause. 1t resolves itself into purely
business question, whether she can afford to
sacrifice receipts to win the clapping of hands
so dear to the heart of the artistic
The other lesson is spread for the benefit Of
the ''rustics," which means simply all people
outside of the metropolis How many people
of limited means are beguiled and bullied by
their own pride into buying seats at expensive
entertainments that they really care little about
and cannot begin to understand, only be-
cause they have not the moral courage to
say, ri cannot afford it, or cit is not worth
the admission askedg" There are communi-
ties, doubtless, that would consider them
selves disgraced if the people composing them
did not crowd to concerts and plays regarded
as 'the proper thing" Many community
has allowed itself to be imposed on by extor-
Tomato prices for entertainments that were
patronized only because conducted by the
celebrated actor So-and-so, or the noted must
clan This and-that. 1t is mark of rustic
ity," or worse, to submit to the demands of
some of these enterprises, and to crowd to
as devoid of artistic taste. The So and So. so
seat demanded now would have meant So
twenty years ago. The entertainments that
ask it are not worth it, and the way to prove
it to the managers is to refuse to pay it-stay
away until more reasonable rates are conced-
ed. There is no sense in even a Patti getting
81, 600 night for warbling few notes, how
ever delicious. When the people become SEN
sible enough to refuse to pay exorbitant
prices, the prima donna will not grow wealthy
in one season and arrogant in two The art
istes will grow more affable try harder to
please, and be welcomed with warmth that
is hard to feel at So. so seat. The 'rusticsv
should take the hint and stop it.

Gen. Ben Butler and the vice-Presidency I'm
1864.

1864.
The Evening Record having made statement
that General Butler declined to run for Vice
president in 1864. not because he thought the
duties of the position thankless but because he
did not wish TO stand on the same ticket with
Lincoln and that statement having been ques-
toned. an interview was had to-day with Frank
w. Bird who was one Of the foremost leaders Of
Massachusetts, Republicans in the campaign of
that year. and who is personally acquainted with
General Butler.
Mr.. Bird made the following statements: az
made frequent visits TO Fortress Monroe in 1864
visiting Gen. Benjamin +. Butler | was there
early III June of that year. In conversation
with him one day-this was prior to the assem-
bling of the Republican national convention
the talk turned to the nominations to be
made there Butler was opposed to the
denomination of President Lincoln. That.
however. was considered settled at that time.
and our conversation turned to the nomination
for Vicepresident. Buffers name had been FREE
quently used in connection with that nomination.
From the beginning to the end Of my visit But
Ter stated very emphatically that he would not
accept a nomination, and would not accept it be-
cause he would not go on to the ticket with Liu-
coin. heard not a word from him then of the
reasons he now gives in his North American Re-
view article for declining the nomination.
Il was not delegate to the Baltimore con-
vention, probably for the reason that | was
known to be opposed to the denomination OF
President Lincoln. However. / intended to be
present at the convention on my way home On
taking leave of General Butler he charged me,
as his friend to see the Massachusetts delega
ton. with all of whom | was acquainted, and to
say to them from him that he most strenu-
ously refused to allow his name to be used
as candidate for Vice president on the ticket
with Lincoln, and that if he should be
nominated he would not accept the nomination
l reached Baltimore, l think, on the evening of
June z, 1864. On the morning of the 8th the
day of the convention, the Massachusetts, dele

Probably, if it had not been for this protest OF
mine in his behalf Butler would have been nom
