TIIE ROW AT THE MEETING OF
THE RETURN JUJJOES.
The scene at the meeting of tho Return
.hulgoH yesterday was exceedingly disgraceful.
Desperate rhiladolphia politicians have uu
foitunntely acquired a reputation for doctor
ing up returns which is only too well do
served. Not satisfied with cheating at tho
polls and manipulating the first count of
votes, they sometimes resort to tho still more
infamous device of distorting or falsifying
what should be deemed a sacrod record of
public opinion. Tho rascals of this stripo
tire not all confined to tho Democratic party,
for some skilful adepts cling to tho skirU of
tho llepublican organization, and thfiy are
ready, when occasion requires, f or achievements
in political arithmetic which would even add
now laurels to tho famous statistician of tho
New York World. It is alleged that yestor-;
day two such frauds were perpetrated, one
atlecting tho result in the Thirteenth Legis
lative District, and electing a liepublican in
stead of a Democrat by a forged return, and
tho other electing Watt, a liepublican Sena
tor, instead of Diamond, a Democrat, by a
false or imperfect statement of tho votes cast
in the Senatorial District. Tho parties guilty
of these falsifications of tho records cannot
bo too severely punished. Thoir crime should
bo mado a penitentiary offense. Instead of
being petted and rewarded by leading
partisans for thoir wickedness, thoy should be
not only forever disfranchised but treated as
tho lowest and most dangerous class of vil
lains. Tho Democrats were naturally indig
nant at tho rumors of the attempted frauds,
and properly appealed to tho Court of Com
mon l'lous to prevent their consummation.
Judge Allison promptly issued a writ sus
pending proceedings until tho wholo matter
could be judicially investigated. The Deputy
Sheriff who served this writ, however, acted
more in the spirit of a partisan than
an emissary of tho law. Ho obtained
his first entrance to the room in which
tho Eeturn Judges were in session uuder
circumstances well calculated to inspire a
doubt of tho genuine character of his writ.
Tho doorkeepers allege that ho falsely claimed
to bo a return judge, and, once there, the re
porters allege that ho triumphantly exclaimed
that ho had a writ from tho Supremo Court,
which was not then in session. Tho conclu
sion was hastily drawn from this misstate
ment that ho had no business in the room,
and ho was summarily ejected under tho be
lief that ho waa an unauthorized intruder.
Eeinforced by a new order from the Court and
by the aid of a host of stalwart
policemen, he returned to tho charge, effected
a forcible entrance, and tho policemen not
only arrested tho doorkeepers who had per
formed what they had believed to bo their
duty, but shamefully maltreated one of tho
most unoffending of roporters. The whole
difficulty arose from the indiscreet manner in
which the first attempt to serve the writ of
tho Court was made; and tho evil results of
this blunder were intensified by tho super
Berviceable zeal of the policemen in assault
ing men who were, of all present, most inno
cent of wrongdoing of any description.
Subsequently tho disputed points
were considered by tho Court, and
its directions wero followed, but
as various questions were raised which can
-only be legitimately decided by tho Legisla
ture, the certificates of election were given
to the parties who would have received them
if no appeal to a judicial tribunal had been
made, and it remains for the State Senato to
dispose of the claims of Watt and Diamond,
with tho former as tho sitting member, and
for tho Assembly to decide between Geisz,
Mullen, and Forsythe, with tho former as the
holder of the certificate of election. We
trust that exact justice will be done at Har
risburg, without reference to partisan predi
lections, as the Republicans of l'hiladolphia
will lose infinitely more than they will gain
by endorsing official pretensions based on
fraud, and a just decision should be promptly
made.
The wholo transaction brings into promi
nence tho readiness of a certain class of des
perate partisans to peril their salvation for a
fleeting and despicable triumph, while it dis
plays a wonderfully inefficient and rude
method of enforcing tho law by a Deputy
Sheriff and the policemen. It is evident that
among tho many other things needed to im
prove the municipal government, a superior
method for the punishment of manipulators
of election returns should be devised; that the
necessity of having a police force free from
partisan influences constantly increases; and
that it would bo well if the writs of tho courts
affecting election returns could be served by
officers appointed by the judges, instead of
partisan Sheriffs.
TIIE SrANISU SITUATION.
Ai-faius in Spain aro rapidly getting into a
. more muddled condition than ever, and from
present appearances there is a fair prospect
that the revolution, line many u uropuuu
revolution before it, will have its final conclu
sion in anarchy and an overthrow of all gov
ernment. Tho regency soems to bo utterly
unuble to grapple with tho situation, and
matters are going on from bad to worse, until,
unless somo change for tho better takes place
soon, the expulsion of Isabella will bo looked
' .upon as a misfortune of tho first magnitude.
No successor to tho dethroned Queen has yet

THE DAILY KVEN1NQ TELEGRAPH PIULAj)ELPHIA, FRIDAY,
will be soon. It wan doftnttnly nnnounnoil but
a few weeks ago that thn young Duke of
Genoa had boen flatvl upon; but he was
dropped almost as soon m ht wan Ukou up,
and Serrano still hold.- his putt at the lum l of
tho Stato, with dittloulti tuuunuiliititi
around him on every bwta that promise to
culminate in Another revolution tlutt will hoihI
him and his AdhoronU Hviuvj acioss tint bonier
to keep tho ex-Qutmu eouiptuiy.
The cable dimpittohits tlutt eouie to us from
Madrid nro filled with littlo el.to tlutit accounts
of tho defeat and extermination of tho ropult
licans, who, however, will not stay dofoatod
or exterminated, but appear to bo getting
more formidable and troiiblesomo every day.
It is impossible for us to get any correct in
formation as to the actual situation, for it is
evident that a rigid censorship is oxorcisod,
nnd only despatches favorable to the Govern
ment nro permittod to pass over tho wiros.
Tho contradictory nature of the rumors that
reach us by Government authority, howovor,
enable us to glean something of tho
real condition of things, and
form tho opinion that the future
of Spain is anything but pro
raising. The orderly manner in
which the expulsion of tho
Queen was concurred in by all classes raised
groat expectations of tho establishment of a
truly liberal Government to succeed tho
despotism that had been overthrown, but tho
fears that were expressed from tho first that
tho Spaniards wcro unfit for liberty aro fast
being realized now, and the people and thoir
rulers aro alike proving their inability to take
advantage of tho grand opportunity afforded
them for inaugurating a new era of progress,
enlightenment, and reform.
MUSIC IX THE runuc SCHOOLS.
As miciiit have been expected, tho appointment or
a superintendent of vocal music In the public schools
has given rise to a wordy war, In which everybody,
whether competent or incompetent to pass Judgment
on tho subject, haa something to say. The object of
attack is now the new text book that has been Intro
duced, and, of courso, the advocates of every sys
tem, except the one adopted, pronounce sentence
against it. We believe that the expediency
of having a musical instructor who will
thoroughly ground the pupils in the principles
of music is generally admitted, and we have never
heard any doubt expressed as to the perfect fitness
of Mr. Jean Louis for the position. If ho Is tho
roughly competent, the selection and arrangement
of the text books might, with the utmost propriety,
be left to his judgment, unless some very glaring
defects cau be shown to exist. Mr. Louis desires to
introduce a new system of musical instruction,
which we believe to be at once simple, easy and
thorough. The littlo toxt-book introduced by hlra Is
adapted to this system, and a candid examination
of its merits will certainly convince any disinterested
person of its value. The only real objections that
have been urged against It are the triviality
of some of the little songs, the father obscure fcng.
lish of some of the translations from tho German,
and the appearunce of advertisements on the cover.
These last should be removed, to obviate any jealousy
or ill-feeling, and it would perhaps be as well for the
superintendent to get some competent person to
reform the few grammatical irregularities that
exist. It should be remembered, however, that
these sentences and verses are only Intended as ex
ercises, and although "Eye for Eye, Tooth for
Tooth," "Sister, Come and Sing with Me," "Cheer
fully I go, running to and fro," and others of like
character, arc absurd enough when standing
alone, they are infinitely better as exercises than the
"do, re, mi, fa, sol," etc., which are so tiresome to
children commencing the study of musio. Some of
the little verses selected by Mr. Louis are very
poor poetry, but we do not Judge a
matter of this kind by a standard of poetical criti
cism. If they illustrate the exercises, that is all that
is required. This matter is deserving of candid and
fair-minded criticism, and not captious fault finding.
If Mr. Louis is lit for the position of superintendent
of vocal music, he is entitled to the cordial support
of all who are Interested in the matter of introducing
good musical instruction into the public schools;
and if he Is not fit for It, he should be removed and
a better man put in the position. No instructor,
however, can succeed if he is constantly interfered
with, and it is absolutely necessary that he should
be allowed a large discretion, if any good results aro
expected from his instructions. Tho system of Mr.
Louis is, we sincerely believe, a thoroughly good
one, and it is at least entitled to a fair trial before
it is condemned.
