CONCORD. N. H.. Jan. 7.-GuardeA BY more
than SCORE Of blue-ooated policemen. the Re-
publicans to-day successfully carried out their
plot to steal the Legislature and Governor
ship despite the popular vote against them.
and By this means they have secured Repub-
lican successor to Senator Blair. For the nrst
time in its history tho New Hampshire State
Capitol was under guard during session OF
tho Legislature. Policemen lined tho cor
rtdors and entrances and even tho steps lead
ing to the Speakers chair. They demand
Cd passport in tho shape Of cre-
dentia1s Of ofilce Of every man who
attempted to enter the building. and no one
except legislators and State Officers was al
lowed to pass. The State House was praotl-
cally under martial law. This outrageous
condition Of affairs was duo 70 Gov. Goodell's
umidity. The bitter rsmonstranoes of the
Democrats against the barsfsoed robbery on
the part Of the Republicans and their threats
to oppose to the end the conspiracy to dsfrsud
them Of their rights. was seized upon BY Gov.
Goodoll as . pretext for making show OF
force in order to protect the Republican oon-
spirators he admitted as much to-day whom
asked why tho police were there.
As soon as the Democrats found their proe.
ress to the legislative halls blocked BY the DO
lice. they held CAUCUS. and It wasn't very
tsme affair either. All the Democrats wore
angry, and all sorts OF wild propositions were
made to meet force with force. Ono man sug-
Rested that the members walk to tho State
House in body. and enter the House in spite
OF all efforts to check them. The suggestion
was not acted upon. but tho members marched
to the Capitol In body. each individual salts
fed the inouisitors OF his right to enter. and
they took their seats quietly.
After the hands Of the clock had been turned
backward several times, to give Clerk Jswetr q
chance to make UP his roll before II O'Clock.
the House was called to order and the roll. !"
