Finally. as We have before remarked,
the democrats who opposed the idea
of making a trade with Butler to Sc
cure his help TO undo what he had de-
liberately done, are fully justified in
the result of the election. They took
the ground that it was necessary to
pay Butler for the assistance of the
honest masses of his followers.-States
