DELAWARE AND MASSACHUSETTS,.

The Ercning Post deals with Mr.. Rcc's
article in The North american Rcrcr with
Characteristic frivolily and uniairncss. 1t
ridcules him for contributing ~ stirring
editorial" for employing :" a comm ssioncr' to
investigate the political situation in Delaware,
and for writing up" live subject AMI
"getting a beat = on his esteemed cOntem-
po,arirs.n IL then reminds INN with marked
solcmnity that in Massachusetts ~ well n in
Delaware the payment of poll-tax is pre-
requisite TO voting, and rcproachcs the com
missioner for nrglccting TO inform /" the
editor" of that important fact. Having thus
convicted Mr. Rice of Sensational journal
ism and unnquisiiye ignorance, it affects TO
dismiss his weighty argument and dlspassiOn-
ate statement of facts by one or two crude
concentrations from the census returns and
political almanacs.
Now, curiousy enough, Mr.. Rice in dcscrib-
ing the Acknowledgement of cOlOred voters in
Delaware does not complain of the pOll-taX.
He shows that it was imposed under the Wing
Constitution of 1881, and that the orr ginaI
purpose was a commendablc one, namely, the
establishment OF an honest registry law. The
object of his article is to set forth the various
stages OF tnc process W NHiCH lnc purpose OF
that law has been perverted by subsequent
legislation and corrupt political practice until
the tax collectors are now able to disfranchisc
colored Republican voters without violating
the Federal statutes. These Democratic
collectors, for example, make formal return
in March Of all delinquent taxpayers, and by
dropping the names of Republicans disqualIfy
chem for voting in November; and at the same
time they keep the names Of Democrats on the
lists for their own party uses, so that the taxes
can be raid before election and the votes
secured. This is one of many Objectionable
features Of Mr.. Bayards ingenious distran-
chisemcut scheme which Mr.. Rice exposes.
The Ereniny Post does not meet the real issue
which is raised in the article. Avoiding the
essential points of the controversy, it fires Oft
several popguns in the air with grand
flourish and triumphantly announces that it has
demolished the whole sensation"
If The Erening Post has one beseting weak
ness it is its vaunted prescience concerning the
Massachusetts electoral system. 1t ordinarily
knowledge of that subject and that everybody
else knows nothing whatever about the noble
old Commonwealth We recollect that about
the time when Mr.. Higginson discovered that
South Carolina had made "a great step for
ward from shotguns to tissue ballots, fl ION
tissue ballots to complicated ot-bOXes,"
and that the avowed object OF intimidation,
outrages and election frauds was to accomplish
precisely what is done by direct statute in

yyE OBI0 SEN4YORSHIP.

There is reason 60 believe that the Democrats
are resorting to falschood, in the assertion that
oDnosition to Senator Sh Imans cltcticn III
Ohio comes from Republican sources. Certain
if j. that some of those who would have been
most ccnspicuous candidates for the Scnatoi-
ship. if there were such opposition. have un-
couiyocaily declared that thcy would not be
candidates against Mr.. sherman, who ought to
be and would be elected. Governor Forster =
statement to that effect was pGb'ishrd some
time ago. Without f0lm the senator was
virtually accepted by the whole Republican
party as its candidate for the Senator SHIP an"
it was understood that victory oi the party
should mean his recollection. There L. 30 lhdi-
cation whatever that amy pGrtion oil the I'thuh-
lcans take now different view nl the matter.
The people who want To drle't Senator
sherman are the Democratic c'rruptonNtS "l
Ohio. They are the men who have bat recently
failed in attempting to brihc member Z"
absent himself. and there are rumors not lew
of efforts by the same corrupt crew to the same
end. This nefariuus gang tried to carry the
State of Ohio by fraud, and was defeated IN
large measure by the energy and shrcwdne>S "i
Senator Sherman, and his popularity Win lie
publican voters. 1t Is not strange that thcS
are anxious to avenge themselves by ms defeat
if they can. To that end they would willingly
offer the Senatorhip, no dOnOt, to almost
ANYBODY else. bat there is a question whether
any Republican can be found who would take
the place at such price. Tne gang of Demo
cratic coYruptionists know that Nj. sherman :
activity in Ohio affairs is an important barrier
TO their success. They would sacrifice much TO
kill him of. But for the same reason Rcpub-
licans who care for the success OF the party
are equally anxious to prevent his defeat by
any dshunOrabe means, after the verdict OF
the people in his favor has been so emphatic
Senator Sherman has great trength on account
of his long experience and most honorable
service, especially in financial matters. The
great confidence in HIM which Ii felt among
voters who believe in honest money and IN the
protection of industry was an important help to
the Republican cause in the late election, par
ticularly among the German citizens, with
whose opinions on the money question the
Senator has been closely in accord. The Dem
ocratic managers are right in the belief that 1t
would narm the Republican party greatly to
! have him defeated. They are probably wrong
| in the belief that they can indnce any Rrpub-
| lican member OF the Legislature, even by
| brides, to take part in his defeat.
