The Blotoral Conspiracy. them as-elear as the sun. They shut their eyes upon the record, and re faed to see "how many and what peroons were duly appointed elec tors"by,the. people, but listened ea getly tVte'evidenc (alinunde though It was) which showed "bow nany and what persons" had been desig nated by the returning officers. It was ultimately held (eight to seven) that the appointens of the returning board were duly appointed, and the appointees of the people were unduly appointed. Did the eight suppose that the legal power to make such an appointment was vested by law in the returning boardl Did they think it was not vested in the people? No, that is impossible. But they may have conscientiously believed that the interest of their faction would be well served by Hayes' election. They may have been prolnpted by a virtuous admiration of carpet bag government, and were sincerely anx tons to save it from Mr. Tilden's re iorm. ITs PrTIFOGGING, But this decision in favor of frand which 'so shocked the common sense and common honesty of the nation was not made without some attempt to justify it. The eight gave reasons so many and so plausable that Kel logg and Wells must have chuckled with delight when they board them. One argument very seriously urged was that it would be troublesome, and required a great deal of time, to ascertain who was duly appointed by the people. It was much easier to accept the false vote and say no more about it. To decide how many and what persons got certificates from the returning board was a short and simple process; but to push the in quiry behind that--to inquire wheth or the certificate was honest, to look~ for the evidence which would showv who were duly appointed-hic labor opus est. The seven reminded the eight, but reminded themt in vain that the due appointment, which no bodhy in the world except the peopk( had the least right to mnake, was th< very thing which they were to fints out; and they could not be excused from a duty to which they wor< pledged and sworn by the mere in convenience of performing it. Be sides, the eight knew very well that there was no diffculty in it; it was but looking at the record of the ap pointmnent as the people1 m ado it up; they could road it as they r'an; the truth was plainer than the lio; the honesty oT the case was easily seoen as the fraud. But no persuasion could influence thorn to cast even a glauce at the actual appointment. What did thoy think this commission was made forf Wby was this groat combination of learning and statecraft sot up. Ac cording to the eight its 8010 purpose was, not to determine any matter in dispute between the p)arties, but merely to declare that the returning boards had certified for th~e Hayes electors; which everybody know al ready, and nobody ever denied. If its objeot was what the law said-to do ci de who were duly appointed--then the eight succeeded in making it merely a splendid aboration, because, among other reasons, it was too much trouble to make it anything else. UEDGJING FOR OREGoN. But the commission, following the ioad of counsel for Mr. Hayes, insisted that the certificate of the pr"opor Stato offier ought to be regardod as con.. elusive evidence of the appointment made by the people, it is uundoubt odly true that the State has a right to speak on this subject through her own organs, and when she does so speak, her voice should be regarded as true. But whbat officer is her proper organ? The Governor being her po, litical chief, and his certificate being required by act of Congress, it would not have been unreasonablo to hold that it was conclusive unless tainted with fraud. The Bayes electors had the executive certificate in Louisiana and Florida, and this, in regard to those States, gave the eight a groat legal advantage. But they threw it away, abandoned ;the attestation of the Governor as worthless, claimed no faith or credit for it, and pronunced it open to contradiction, no matter how honestly it may have boon given. What was the moaning of this phono. 'monaI ruling which apparently oponed the dloor of investigation even wider' than the )Jemocrats asked? It was understood by overybody. The com-. mission was hedging for Oregon. The eight were r0aching across to the Pa ci fic for the one Vote thero, which was e assimortaIIt as the twelve on the Bdt btwing kono behind the Gov, ert6re e ertificate for the sake of cor, rsting erors, could there be any pos sible 3ustification for stopping bforo a the truith was reached? Ii t.ho und. of the commonwealth, whose attesta?/ tion is required by Federal law, went for nothing whenever it was ontri diotod, how could the conclusiveness be assorted of a paper mado by subor dinato officers unknown outsido of the State, and powerless even by the Jocal law to make a certificate of more than prima facie validity? Yet the elootoral commission (eight to seven) decided that the Governor's certificate might be set aside for a mere mistake of law or fact, while that of the re-% turninx board would stand, though known to be founded on falsehood and saturated all through with cor ruption. EVIDNNOR AIUNDE. The unvarying proforenceo of the eight commissioners for the false over the true becomes very striking at this point. When they got behind the Governor's pap ors, they found lying aliundo two oter sets of documents, one of which was a record of the ac tual appointment made by the people; the other was a more fabrication of tho returning board without any som blanco of truth; they embracod the latter with all the ardor of sincero af, fection, and rejected the former with all possible marks of their disliko. THE INFAMOUS EIOhT. The eight commissioners did not stop there. They went much further. They practically justified and rus tainod all the infinite rascality of the returning boards. They not only re. fused to tako voluntary notico of the atrocious frauds perpetrated by thom, but they excluded the proofs of their corruption which the Democratic counsel held in their hands and offer ed to exhibit. 'I hoso commissioners choked off the ovidonco, and smoth orod it as remorselessly as Wells and his associates suppressed Democeratic returns. And this they put on the express ground that to thorn it was all one whether the action of these boards was fraudulent or not. They voull suffer no proof of corruption to invalidato the right claimed by a Hayes man to put in the vote of a State for his candidate. This monstrous and undurablo out rago was resisted to the utmost.. All of the seven implored and protosted against it. Judge Clifford, tlho Pro. sident of the commission, laid it down as a maxim of the common law that fraud vitiat.es whatever it touches, and pr'ovod,it undoniably. IIe might have provod more, it is not merely a maxim of the common law; it . be longs to all countries and all ages; no Icode can claim it exclusively; it por, vadoes all systems of jurisprudence; it has its home in every honest hoart; it isj the universal sentiment of all julst men; it applies to all humnan dealings. Judge Field looked in the face of the majority, and told thorn plainly that their disregard of this great princi. p)1o was "ais shocking in morals as it was unsound in lawv," and added: "It is clementary knowledge that fraud vitintes all p)roceedIngs. even thec most solemn; that no form of words, no amount of ceremony, no selomn: ity of proceeding, can shield it from Cxpos,~ 110 0or pr1otect 'ILs structuro from as sault and destruction." But the eight were as (leaf as adders to the v'oico of reason and jusitioo. They would not permit the fraud to be asisauhlod, mutch I ees to be destroyed. They stood over it to shiold it, protet it, and save it, interposing the broad &agia. of their authority to cover it against every attack. The eight persistently denied their poder or that of Congress to do wvhat they were commanded by the law to do-that is, decide who were duly ap pointed. T11hey would only decide that certain persns wore namtod as electors by a returning board. They would not understand that the ap, pointment by the people might be one thing, and the action of the returning board another, or that the latter, even as evidence of the former, was worth less if it was fraudulent. FRAUD UNDER TIIE FORMs OF LAw. In all the discussions of the subjoct the men disposed to favor the conspi racy professed a most profound vene, ration for the "forms of lawv." This was the keynote struck at Now Or leans by the visiting committee, and it is heard in overy subsequent argu,. mTonL of counsel and commissioner on that side. It scorned to be understood among thorn that a formal cheat was perfectly safe from exposure. If' the sepulchre was whited on the outside, it made no difference that it was filled with "corrnption, dead men's hones and all uncleannoss." No refugo of 1ies could be swept away, no hiding place of f alsehood could ever be un, covered, if it was built in theo pros, eribed form. Only give it the legal shape, and the overdowing scourge would be turned aside. But legal form, however valuable as a covering for fraud, was in their judgment, no protection for truth or justice or p)ub.. lie righit. The will of Louisians was pronounced at the election with all the solemnities req&irod by the law of the State and of the United States. The appointment of the Tildcn elec, tors on the 7th of November was a perfectly legal piocc of work; there was not a flaw in the record of it as it came from the hands of the appoint-. mng power. But it was looked on wvith perfect contempt. Neither the visit, ing committee nor the Hayes counw~ eel, nor tiho eight ommissioners, be stowed on it any of their love. Their affootions wore otherwiso engaged they gavo the homage and devotion of their hearts to the beautifulro u which "hereu'rno ing botrd coodpound. ed itsl'flso certi ffcato.: Another paradox of the eight is ou rious ouougb to:be, noted. They do clared repeatedly thit they had no power to try a cont6stod olectIdrcnaso, and for that rmson they .would. not oolt at tho ev nce whidh showed what persons woro duly appointed electors by tho pooplo Now markl The case was this. Each of those vots q. abo anied b v)hat WA assorted to beir6dfUthatit Was 'cast by electors duly appoined. The con fliovrwas to be determindd ,by the M6r ifying powrhlh o ss e tionably has, and which the coiijA-. sioners expressly assumed when thoy swore that they would' ded6 - who were duly appointed. To decide it one way or the other required precise ly the same jurisdiction, and called into exercise exactly the samo facul ties. Yet they held that if they; do cided adcoi'mg Lb the truth in favor of the cloctori actually appointod they would bo trying a ocntested elootion; but if they decided in favor of the pro tenldors, who had nothing but a fraud ulont cortificato, they would not be trying a contested election; in other worda, their jurisdiction was full and arnplo to decide it falsely, but wliolJy unequal to the duty Qf duciding it truly. THB FULL EktEN'T o' T1HE OUirtAGE. Aftor all, there was but one ques tion before the commission. Had the American people a right to elect their own Chief Magistrate? They had the right. Thoir ancestors struggled for it lqng, fought for it, often, and won it fairly. Boing ombeddod in thoir constitution, it cannot be destroyed excopt by a force strong enough to overthrow tho organic structiro of the government itsW. Legislative enactments or judicial docisions arc powerless either to strongthen or hims pair it. The ledgerdomain of law craft, the catches of special pleading, the snapporadoes of practice, do not help us to docilo a matter like this. A great nation must not be impalled upon a pin's point. Pronodents which might bind a court of quarter sessions determining the settlement of a pau per cannot tie up tho hands of the su promo legislature dofending a funda, mental right of the wholo peoplo. V hen Grenvillo, in 1796, cited the authority of divers cases to show that America might be. taxed without rcp rosentation. Pitt answorod:~ "1 come not here armed at, all points, with the statute book doubled down in) dOg's eairs to defenmd the cause of liberty. I can acknowledge no veneration for any procedure, law or ordinance that is repugnant to reason and the first prVinciples of our constitution. 1 ro, joico that Ameriica' has roBi.stOd." S3o spoko( the defiant friend of our race in the prosoence of a hostilo Parliament ton yoars bfore the doclaration of lndepe'ndec. And now, after this lon)g interval of time, w e behold ouui groatest right-the right on which all other' rights depond-successfully as, sailed in our own Congress with th( same small weapons that GAronville used, If brute force had crushed it out, we might have b)orno the calamni, ty with fortitude: but to isee it circum vented by knavery and p)uttifogged to death, is too much to be endured with any show of patienco. If the majority of that cornmissioni could but havo realized their responsi bility to God and man, if they could only have understood that in a froc country liberty and law arc unsepara. hio, they qould have been enrolled among our greatest hoenefact,ors, for they would have added strength and grandour to our institutions. But they could not come up to the height of the groat subject. P arty passion eo bon umod their faculties that a funda mental right seemed nothing to them when it came in conflict with some argument supported by artificial roa, soning, and drmawn from the -supposed analogies of technical procedure. Tile constitution was, in their judgment, outweighed by a void statute and the action of a corrupt returning b)oard. Let these things be remembered by our children's children; and if the friends of free government shall ever again have such a contest, let them take care bow they leave the decision of it to a tribunal Jike that which bo% trayed the nation by enthrontng the groat_fraud of 1876.

The daily edition will on week days be a sheet of four pages, and on Sundays a sheet ot eight pages, or 50 broad columns; w1ilc the weekly edition will be a sheet of eight pages of the same dimensions and character that are already familiar to our friends. The Sun will continue to be the strenuous advocate of reform and retreuchinent, and of the aubstitution of .stateanianship, wisdom, and integrity for hollow pretence, imbecility, and fraud in the adminstration of public af., fairs. It will i-outend for the government of the people by the people and for the people, s oploosed to government by frauds in the ballot box and in the counting of votes, en forced by military violence. It will endeavor to upply its readers--a body now not fair from a million of souls-with the most care ful, complete, and trustworty accounts of cur ront events, and will employ for this purpose a numerous and carefully selected staff of re porters and correspondents. It s reports from Washington, especially, will be full, accurate, anid fearless; and it will doubtless continue to deserve and enjoy the hatred of those who thrive by plundering the Treasury or by usurping what the law does. not give themi, while it will endeavor to merit the confidence oft the public by tefenlding the righats of the people against dhe encroachments of unijusti. fled power. * The price of the' daily Sun will be 65 eents a mionth~ or S; 50 a year, post paid, or with tiho Sundamy edition $7 70 a year.
