A candidate who. in any event, has
a majority of at least 300,000 ou tho
popular vote, cannot be thrust, aside
ny the verdict of a Returning hoard
which but a few months ago was
considered so disreputable that the
Senator produced by it was denied
a seat in a Republican Senate.
A candidate who is the acknowledged
choice of nineteen States, including
New York, New Jersey, Connecticut
and Indiana,cannot bedeprived of his
rights by the same machine which
fastened Kellogg upon Louisiana.
The Presidency of the American re
public cannot be carried in a carpet
bag, nor disposed of by carpet-bag
gers. The American people will
have something to say before that is
done, and the majyrity of tho Ameri
can people are with the Democracy.
NEW YOilK HERALD AND EXP HESS,
Special to tho Cincinnati Enquirer.]
New York, Nov, 17.—The Express
steailily asserts th>it Tilden has been
elected anti shall be inaugurated ; de
clares that the decision pf the people
shall not be reversed by the Senate.
It calls attention to the' fact t hat the
House is a co-ordinate branch and
holds the purse and sinews of war.
Whereupon the Herald scolds the
Express and bullies it, declaring it
incendiary and revolutionary, hold
ing Tilden and Hewitt responsible
for it, and denouncing Kelly’s candi
dacy for Comptroller, alleging that
he owns the Express.
Last evening’s Express said : “The
Express means what it said—that the
House is as much judge of election
as the Senate; that the Vice Presi
dent can only open packages ad
dressed to him, and that according
to right, precedent and custom tell
ers are five to three, and are per
sons to count the votes and see that
they are correct. The Express means
that the men who have received a
majority of the Electoral votes, with,
a3 in the present year, three hun
dred thousand majority of the peo
ple’s votes, have a right to preside
over our Government for fojur years,
as declared in the Constitution of the
United States, and as sanctioned by
the Government and people from
1789 to 1876.”
The Herald raves like a termagant
this morning, and commands John
Kelly to discharge the editors. The
Express will stand firm, and the Dem
ocrats will back it.
From the Chicago Tribune. Ind.J
We do not believe, therefore, that
the moral sense of the American peo
ple will eonse/d to or tolerate that the
election of a President of the United
States shall be determined and decided
by throwing out the votes of several
thousands of legal voters, legally poll
ed, in any State of the Union. We
take it, therefore, that the votes ac
tually polled in these five “bulldoz
ed” parishes of Louisiana will be
counted, no matter what may be the
result, produced upon the election by
so doing. * * * If, however, the
Demojrats do not have a majority
except by counting the votes in these
five parishes, and the result in the
State depends on their being count
ed, then the issue will be a direct
one, and one upon which the coun
try will promptly reach a judgment,
and NO CANVASSING BOARD
WILL DARE ATTEMPT TO PUT
THE JUDGMENT OF THE NATION
AT DEFIANCE; and the American
people will never engage in a civil
war to uphold the counting of votes
never cast or offered to be cast, or to
REJECT LAWFUL VOTES LEGALLY CAST
AND recorded on the poll lists.
THE DEMOCRATIC STATE COMMITTEE OF
OHIO.
Columbus, 0., Nov. 17.—John G.
Thomi>son, Chairman of the Demo
cratic State Executive Committee,
issued the following call to-night for
a meeting of the Democratic State i
Central Committee on Wednesday
next.:
Rooms of the Democratic State i
Executive Committee,
Columbus. 0., Nov 17. 1870..)
Nearly two weeks have now elapsed
since the Presidential election. The
grave events that have transpired
within that time make it evident to
all that an attempt is being made to
defeat the will of the people in their
choice of a Chief Executive. Certain
irresponsible men holding office in
the Southern State Governments
have conspired with party managers
in the North to regain by fraud and
violence what they lost by the honest
ballot; thev are attempting to count
in a candidate for the Presidency
when he has been fairly beaten at
the polls. After we have brought
the campaign to a successful termin
ation by giving our candidate for
the Presidency a majority of a mil
lion among the white voters of the
country, a majority of three hundred
thousand of the whole vote cast, a
majority in the Electoral College of
probably thirty-seven votes, and also
carrying nine of the thirteen States,
as many as were required to ratify
the Constitution, these desperate men
are endeavoring to overthrow the re
sults of the contest and to perpetuate
their corrupt power. It is a time
when th£ very existence of our Re
public is imperiled. We have thought
it expedient to call a meeting of the
Democratic Central Committee at
Columbus, on Wednesday next, No
vember 22d, at 2 o’clock P. M., to take
into consideration the duty that the
Democratic Conservative element of
Ohio owes to itself and to the Gov
ernment. It is not the intention of
this call to limit our counsels to tho
leaders of our own party. They, of
course, are invited. But we also ask
the presence of our Liberal and Inde
pendent brethren, all who have tho
wolfareand prosperity of our coun
try at heart, and who aro opposed to
the rascally schemes of these desper
ate men, to join with us in an earnest
protest against their threatened usur
pation.

GRANT WILL DECIDE IT !
From the New York Herald.)
Now. supposing Hayes declared
elected by counting the three States
as given in the official ceititieates,
tho Democrats will have unconstitu
tional means of redress. The very
utmost they could do would bo to
use force to prevent the inauguration
of Hayes; butas President Grant will
be still in office this would boa tough
er job than anybody would care to
undertake. A resort to force would
be treason, and with the army ut his
command Grant would mako short
work of treason. Judicial warrants
would bo sworn out at once and the
conspirators arrested and imprisoned
to await their trial. The idea that
force will be resorted to with so vig
orous a President as Grant in office
is simply absurd, and more especial
ly as Tilden could not posiblv ad
minister the government if the Sen
ate rejected his title. We may, there
fore, quietly dismiss all the “gor
gons, hydras and chimeras dire”
which distempered and cavilling im
aginations have conjured up, and ac
cept the safe conclusion that, let the
official count be as it may, the result
will bo acquiesced iu by the defeated
party, and the peace of the country
be preserved.

It will be the duty of the official
canvassers of the vote of Wisconsin
to declare its Electoral vote for Til
den and Hendricks. From idl por
tions of the State come well authen
ticated report.3 of unprecedented Re
publican fraud and intimidation.
Careful estimates have already been
made shoAving that the popular legal
vote of the State gives a largo major
ity for the Democratic Electors
In St. Croix. Pierce, Pepin and
other counties adjoining Minnesota
the returns show that the Republi
cans have run in hundreds of voters
from the adjoining State. Counties
farther up the river iu the northwest
keep their returns back, undoubtedly
at the order of Keves, so that they
may send in any report that the boss
dictates. There is no question what
ever that the Republicans have been
guilty of tlie most outrageous frauds
iu the sparsely settled counties of the
State.
It remains for the official canvas
sers of Wisconsin to thoroughly in
vestigate the returns that, upon
their very face, show fraud. It re
mains for the Democratic party to
see to it that the official canvassers
do their full duty. JCven in localities
where fraud was least suspected,
there is evidence of Republican cuss
edness that is astonishing. Referring
to the extraordinary vote in Racine,
the Argus says:
Contrary to expectations, the Re
publicans carry the city bv about 300
majority. They could not have done
it without resorting to the most dis
graceful frauds and intimidations. It
is useless to deny that bribes and in
timidations were used by Republi
cans. More votes, by hundreds, were
polled in this city than there were
voters. An examination of the names
on the poll lists will reveal the fact
that the persons who represented
these names are not to be found
in the city. What does all this mean?
It means that the men were imported
here by the Radical managers, and
given employment for a few days or
weeks, for the purpose of voting the
Radical ticket.

A man was sawing wood yesterday
afternoon in a back yard. He sever
ed two sticks as thick as your wrist,
and then went into the house. "Ma
ry,” said he to his wife, “my country
needs me; there’s no use talking, we
must just go to slaughter all these
Injuns; no true patriot can he ex
pected to hang around a wood pile
these days.”
“John,” said his wife, “if you fight
Injuns as well as you saw wood and
support your family, it would take
one hundred and eighteen like you
to capture one squaw, and you would
have to catch her when she had the
ague and throw pepper in her eyes.”
John went back to the wood pile
wondering who told his wife all about
him.

HOLDING OVER.
From our regular Correspondent.:
Washington, Nov. 18.—There is
profound anxiety felt, here in refer
ence, not to the election, for both
parties consider that settled, but to
the official count as it is called iu
Louisiana, which few beliox'o will bo
fair. The large number of small but
zealous office-holding Republican
politicians, who have worked, con
tributed and voted desperately, and
in a number of close States, like Ohio
and Wisconsin, doeided the majority,
were when they learned of their de
feat, resigned to submit to ro.r poyidi
et vox Dei ; but since the New York
Times has, according to programme,
claimed theso-calied doubtful States,
and they have learned that Chan
dler, Kellogg, Packard ct alter i arradcs
aro to bo the interpreters of the ro.r
Dei iu this hundredth anniversary of
American independence; I hey are
persuaded that tho will of a large
Electoral vote and an immensely
popular majority may be successfully
thwarted. They find much satisfac
tion and comfort in the reflection
that the Returning Board of Louis
iana and South Carolina aro compos
ed of Republican candidates, who are
the judges of their own election.
There is much talk about “intimida
tion" in the Southern States, and it
must be confessed, there is intimida
tion ; your correspondent has been
there and has seen it.
I have heard negroes threaten to
cut the heart out of their own color,
for refusing to vote as tho Postmaster
or Internal Resenuo Agent directed.
There will doubtless be cords of
affidavits and clouds of witnesses,
but the conviction is deep hero with
fair men of all parties, that Tilden’s
majority is morally and mathemati
cally clear
It is significant that Chandler, Kel
logg, Packard, and Republicans, if
that ilk are the only ones that havo
the affrontery to claim the election
of Hayes. We all remember the in
dignation of the better Republican'
papers, among them the New York
Tribune, when Zncharich Chandler
was made a Cabinet Minister. His
reputation as a politician of the worst
character was National, and lie had
just been repudiated and remanded
to civil life, by a Republican Legisla
ture in his own State. Ho is well
known in Washington. Your corres
pondent has seen him reel on Penn
sylvania avenue at midday, and 101 l
in the street cars with stupid intoxi
cation. When sober, he is bold, un
scrupulous, overbearing and ntnbi
tious. He will not sicken at blood
spilling so long as his own skin is not
abraded. Ho does not pretend to be
a Statesman, and he is too selfish to
be a demagogue. He is simply a
partizan of the most soulless, danger
ous type. No one who has ever seen
him, heard him or studied his char
acter, can avoid a shudder when ho
realizes that the destinies of a great
people are, to a degree, in the power
of this lusus (I had almost said
lupus) humani. Chandler controls
Grant, Grant controls the Cabinet
and army. Hayes has retired into
the national obsurity from which his
candidacy called him, and it is
believed by many that Grant and*
Chandler would not hesitate a mo
ment to snuff outthe Republic in this
year of 1876, and that they would be
seconded by an immense army of of
fice-holders, and such statesmen us
still distinguish the Republican par
ty—Spencer, Patterson, Clayton, Kel
logg, Packard, Boutwell, and Mor
ton. There was a significant editori
al paragraph in the Administration
paper, the National Bepublican, this
morning, I have space for only the
last sentence: “ And no President br
ing declared, does Grant holdover un
til a successor is elected and qualified ?”
There are sufaee indications here of
peats and conspiracies. Gen. Grant
is the willing, pampered tool of the
party as it is, or rather the tool und
the party are in perfect accord, both
would rejoice at a contingency that
would enable the Administration to
seize absolute power. The man who
thinks these are “wild and whirling
words” is simply not abreast with
the times. The country has become
so habitutated to the insidious usur
pations of the President, that now,
when he makes the most unconstitu
tional uses of the army, sending it
unasked and for political purposes
to States that are as peaceful as soli
tude, there is scarcely a voice lifted
in protest. This apathy is porten
tious. We remember well the burn
ing indignation with which the mili
tary interference in Louisiana (only
two years agoj was received ;it was
so emphatic that even Grant hesi
tated, trembled, and apologized, and
each member of the Cabinet hasten
ed to disentangle himself from Bel
knap’s “all of U3” approving dis
patch to Gen. Sheridan. But where
is Sheridan now, and the Cabinet.(ex
cept Belknapj and whereare the New
York limes and Tribune with their
eloquent invectives! What a pity
that Rip Van Winkle did not sleep
until this hundredth anniversary,
that he might, be able to Appreciate
political, as well as physical changes.
Locally there is nothing new except
that Boss Shepard has gone to tho
bottom financially, swamping a num
ber of smaller piratical crafts in the
vortex of his ru4n.
The exquisite young ladies and
gentlemen who tidorn the rosewood
desks in tho Treasury Department
are annoyed if possible more than
ever before by creditors who frantic
ally insist upon payment bsforo tho
fourth of March. Many boarding
house keepers, tailors, and miliners
would 1)0 glad to compromise at
fifty per cent., for the impressibn is
general, that, on tho fourth, this gay
superfluous army must march forth.
All business is blocked. The only
men who seem to lie happy and to
have a future are the auctioneers
who expect to sell cubic acres of real
estate, and second-hand furniture.
