David Davis' View.
WASIIINOTON, May 23.—1n reply to a
letter front Hon. O. H. Browning, form
erly Secretary of the Interior, the fol
lowing letter has been written ;
WASHINGTON, May 14, 1880. — My Dear
Sir: I have had the pleasure to receive
your letter of the 6th instant. As a
constituent, a friend and an honored
citizen of Illinois, you have a perfect
right to ask for my views on public
questions, and I have no hesitation in
expressing them, taking the inquiries
in the order presented :
Centralization. —The Constitution wise
ly defines the limits of the Federal and
.State Governments under a happy and
harmonious system, wherein each is
independent in its apprepriate sphere,
and both operate concurrently to pro
tect the integrity and stability of the
Union. Any encroachment of one on
the distinctive domain of the other
necessarily dislocates the machinery of
the Constitution and involves danger to
the whole body politic. In fact, every
departure from the great charter of
liberty and law is attended with peril.
The demand made by adherents of one
of the .great parties for a strong gov
ernment means substantially a central
ized government, destructive of home
rule in the States and the very reverse
of what Mr. Lincoln described as a gov
ernment of the people, by the people
and for the people. Carried to its logi
cal conclusion, 'such a change would
finally overthrow the Republic.
The Third Term. —An innovation upon
the sanctified traditions of the Presi
dency first established by the example
of Washington is urgently demanded
by a powerful interest in the Republi
can party, if the limitations ot two
terms, heretofore unanimously accepted,
be destroyed, the way to a self-perpetu
ating Presidency will be opened by the
use and the abuse of the enormous
public patronage. Break down this
barrier and an end of the experiment
of Republican Government looms up
darkly as the cost of a fatal concession.
Great Corporations. —The rapid growth
of the corporate power and the malign
influence which it exerts by combine
tions on the National and the .State
Legislatures, is a well-grounded cause of
alarm.
Civil Service. —Neither laws nor com
missions created under them will ef
fectually reform the many and glaring
abuses of the civil service. The form
er have been constantly evadsd, and
the latter are powerless for good. An
honest Executive, bent on real and not
simulated reform, has abundaut au
thority to make it effective anywhere,
if he has the capacity to see his duty
and the courage to perform it.
Subsidies. —Experience has demonstra
ted that subsidies in any form are
sources of corruption and ought to be
forbidden.
• ••••••
Jlevision of the Tariff.— Tariff practical
ly means taxation, and all taxation not
equitably adjusted is odious. While the
interest on an oppressive public debt,
the pensions earned with the blood of
soldiers and sailors who fought for the
Union and the regular expense of carry
ing on the Government are to be met,
duties on imports must continue to fur
nish one of the sou roes of revenue. So
long as these duties are levied manufac
turers will be benefitted according to
the degree or mode in which the duties
may be distributed. The existing tariff
is regarded as a oon fused mass of inoon
gruities and monopolies, created by
special legislation and open to oonstant
fraud on the revenue. It taxes the
consumer heavily on tboee articles es
pecially that are most needed by the
toiling masses; it taxes every newspa
per, every school book, every Bible and
the salt of the workingman with grots
injustice, because the poor pretense of
revenue does not exist to cover the
wrong. A revision, therefore, which
shall be at once searching and fair is
demanded, and should as promptly
and efficiently made.
.e*• # • * •
Elections. —The ballot box should be
the safeguard of the Republic, for it is
intended to express the free will of a
free people. Therefore elections should
be exempt from the presence of any
menacing force, and to he free from the
contamination of corrupt Returning
Boards. No party deserves confidence
that seeks ascendency by striking down
honest suffrage either by the use of
troops, by fraud or by intimidation.
It would not be proper for me to ex
prees any opinion upon measures pend
ing or proposed in Congress. My votes
will speak for themselves at the fitting
> time.
Having thus freely answered your in
quiries, I may add, in conclusion, that
my support will be cheerfully given lo
any candidate for President who, in
good faith, will strive to carry out this
general line of policy, which, in my
judgment, is of far more importance
than tho ambition of any man, or even
than the success of any party.
As ever, your friend,
DAVID DAVIS.
Hon. O. 11. Browning, Quincy, 111.
The Electoral Counts.
Washington Post.
It would not be an easy thing to
name a more important and imperative
1 duty now devolving on Congress than
that of eßlablishing a joint rule for
counting the votes of electors of Presi
dent and Vice-President. This is the
last session of Congress before the Pres
dential election. We are on the eve of
a bitter, exciting struggle. The public
mind will be wrought up to a high state
of partisan feeling. Ihe memory of
the crime of 1876-7 will add to the ani
mosities that will be engendered. Be
fore we start on this furious war of
words let us see to it that every possible
precaution is taken against ending in
another and more serious kind of war
fare.
We take it, there is no party and no
sane man who wants to incur again the
awful risk which we took in 1877. We
were close upon the brink of civil wAr—
a war that would have raged in every
city, town, village and hamlet in the
I United States, a war that would have
> devastated the land and bankrupted the
Government. From this dread calamity
- the country was saved by the patriotic
forbearance of the Democratic party.
The electoral commission declined to
do the work for which it was ostensibly
' created. It would not inquire into
fraud. It accepted returns steeped in
all manner of iniquities, including per
jury and forgery, and stole the votes of
two States. These are the facts, crys
talized into history and known of
> ail men. No more electoral commis
sions is the unanimous voice of the
majority from whom that commission
stole the Presidency. Another such
crime would not, in all probability, find
a majority patriotic enough to endure
the wrong rather than assert the right
by force and arms.
The joint rule reported by Senator
Morgan is more fair to the opposition
than the repealed Twenty-second joint
rule. It is admitted by the New York
Times to be as near justice as could lie
expected by any party. It provides for
an orderly, dignified and equitable
count of the votes. Where objections
are made to a return or alleged return
the two Houses are to separate, and one
hour is to be allowed for the determin
ation of each disputed case. If but one
list of votes of electors from any State
has been submitted to each House for
its decision, and it shall appear that the
Houses have not concurred in rejecting
said list, the same shall be received.
But if both Houses shall have concurred
in rejecting any vote contained in such
list, such vote shall not be counted ;
otherwise, all the votes therein shall be
counted.
If more than one list of votes of
electors from any State, or paper pur
porting to be such list, has been submit
ted to each House for its decision upon
objections made theteto, and it shall
appear that the Houses have not con
curred in receiving either of said lists
as the authentic mid lawful list, they
shall each In- declare i I lent
of the *WiRt- in the presence of the
Sen an- 1 House of Representatives,
as being rejected ; and no li-t of voles
| of electors so rejected shall be after
| ward read in the presence of tho two
i Houses except for information.
The resolution provides in the most
careful ar.d circumspect manner for all
the details of the joint convention and
its proceedings to the final announce
ment of the result. We cannot tee
wherein Republicans find cause for ob
jection. But their opposition ought not
to be of any avail. The majority should
discharge this solumn duty before there
is so much as a hint of bringing the
session to a close. We have had suffi
cient warning of the danger of an un
regulated count. Let us be prepared
for every possible contingency.
-
Bayard and Thuriuau.
From the UMTM Union Leader.
Neither Mr. Bayard of Delaware nor
Mr. Thurman of Ohio are out of the
Presidential race by any means. The
election of an almost Bayard delegation
in Massachusetts and of a wholly solid
Tburman delegation in Ohio have given
their respective friends strong hopes of
success. We regard Win field Soott
Hancock's nomination as preferable to
that of any other candidate named, for
the reason that we believe he will be
supported more enthusiastically than
any other by the Democrats of every
section of the country. After Hancock,
however, we look upon Bayard and
Thurman as our strongest men. Both
are mentally giants. Both are thor
oughly upright, conscientious men,
against whose good name no taint of
' suspicion has ever for a.moment attach
ed. Both are statesmen in the broad
est and best sense of the term. Either
would unite the >South so that its every
electoral vote would be secured beyond
a peradventure. Either would transfer
certain northern Sutes now held to be
safely Republican to the doubtful ool
umn. Mr. Bayard's nomination would
have this effect in Massachusetts, NeA
' Hampshire and Pennsylvania, and Mr.
Thurman's in Ohio and the Pacific
States. The name of either would
honor the head of any ticket and any
people who should set either in author
ity over them. Bayard and a western
man for Vice President would be a
strong and safe ticket. The same can
be said of Thurman and an eastern
man for Vioe President. But if the
ticket were made to read Bayard and
Tburman, or Thurman and Bayard, its
success would immediately take rank
among the oertainties.
LEXINGTON, Kan., May 28.—The Kan
sas delegation lo Cincinnati is for Hey
niour, and under no circumstances for
Tilden. If Seymour is out of the raoe
the delegation will act with the majori
ty of the convention.
NEWSPAPER OPINION.
Forest National Democrat.
The Centre county Democrat is a
strong advocate of the claim* of ex-
Governor Curtin, and well it should be.
In the trying time* of the Democracy
in this State in 1878, Governor Curtin
left hi* case in the hand* of friend* in
hi* district and traveled throughout
the State to do battle for the party at
large, and whilo absent, Yocum and hi*
friends concocted fraudulent devices to
defeat him, which they carried out.
Governor Curtin's influence, wherever
he spoke, was felt and added largely to
the success of the party, in that year,
and we join in with the Democrat and
ask that he be vindicated in the course
he pursued in contesting for the seat.
The Democrat says:
"We do believe that justice demands
that the man who has been made the
victim of hate and malice should have
the opportunity of silencing his tradu
cers by a direct appeal to the people
for that complete vindication, which
will surely come with the ides of No
vember should be once more be our
standard bearer. All that Governor
Curtin asked at the hand* of Congress
was that hi* claim should be remanded
back to the people for adjudication.
This was refused him, and it now re
mains for the Democracy of this county
to do their share in securing for him
that right which was wrongly denied
him by the lower branch of Congress."
Harrlaliurg Patriot.
When Sonator Conkling made allu
sion to "tissue ballots" in debate in the
senate the other day he committed al
most as serious a blunder as when he
went uninvited to the house of the
owner of the Cononchet shot-gun. The
Republicans invented the device of a
tissue ballot in 1876. This was proved
before a congressional committee and
no countervailing testimony was pro
duced. The tissue ballot was used by
the Republican managers in Florida at
the last Presidential election for the
purpose of swelling their vote in the
precincts whereat the election-board*
were entirely under their control. A
ticket thin as gauze was foldeu within
an ordinary ballot and thus perfectly
concealed it w*i made to duplicate the
regular ticket. This wa* one of the
devices by which the electoral vote of
Florida was fraudulently given to Mr.
Hayes. Senator Conkling ought to be
more careful in choosing the weapon he
uses in fighting the Democrat*. He
certainly threw a boomerang when he
made reference to the tissue ballot busi
ness.
Philadelphia lUrortl.
< inn of the lessons to be found in the
downfall of the solitary colored cadet
at West Point is the cruelty of putting
persons of his race in positions that
cut them off from the sympathy and
association which are necessary to
human happiness. It i* useless to de
cry the prejudice against the negro.
Suoh an antipathy exists, and it must
be accepted as a fact rather than argued
against as a folly. There is as much of
this feeling at the North as at the
South, and perhaps more of it. The
prolonged and thorough investigation
of the treatment of wbittaker*t the
Military Academy simply shows that he
was severely let alone by the other
cadets. This is ostracism possibly, but
it is one of those grievances which can
not very readily be redressed. Itisdiffl
! cult to see how any system of regula
tion* could be devised to comp- 1 inter-
I'oursi- and good fellowship between i
ixiys, or men, who for any reason what
ever do not take kindly to -n-h nth* r.
Such a notion b.i- no en*o in it. \ <lay
mav come when this prejudice of
will have died away, but its approach
will not be hastened by attempts to
force it. If many more colored cadets
are to be appointed there should be
enough of them to allow them the ad
vantage of companionship, which they
are not likely to enjoy otherwise. •
Washington Pott.
When the Republican party is asked
nominate a colored Statesman for a
high office the leaders get on their stilts
and show up a lofty scorn for so mean
a things* race distinctions in politics 1
They have steadily kept the negro out
of office on account of race prejudice,
but they decline to put him into office
because that would be a disci iminalion
in bis favor. The oolored voters are
beginning to comprehend.thesituation :
"We'll take the turkey and you take
crow, or you take the crow and we'll
take the turkey. Help yourself, it's
all the same to us." And thus under
standing the programme, the swindled
dupes of Radicalism are turning to the
"German element" for a lesson in the
arts of scratching and bolting.
Wllkatharre t'nton-Loadnr.
Winfield Scott Hancock is by all odds
the strongest name with which the
Democratic National ticket can be
headed. General Uanoock's nomine
sion would oompel an immediate aban
donment of the bloody shirt platform
or leave the Republicans in a supreme
ly rediculous lignt in the occupancy of
it. And it would do this, as no other
nomination would, without loosing to
us a single Southern State. It would
preserve us the strength of the solid
South at the same time that it would
strike dumb the tongues that have
made that cry in the mouths of Repub
lican demagogues the instrument by
which every Republican victory since
the war has been achieved.
Boston Treaarript, Bop.
Wade Hampton is said to be engaged
in preparing an address for delivery be
fore the Grand Army of the Republic
in Pittsburg, Pa. The subject of the ad
dress is "National Reconciliation." Gen
eral Hanks, on the other band, leads a
movement on the part of Massachusetts
to keep alive the prejudices and pas
sions of the war. He does this on the
hollow pretext that the results of the
war will otherwise be reversed. 'Which
is the beat patriot under the present
oircumitances—Wade Hampton or Na
thaniel P. Hanks.
•ireirg. William Curtis' Chickr-rlng Hall Ad.lr.wt
In the Slate of New York, and in the
State of Peneslyvania, the spoils sys
tem has already so far supplanted the
American principle—the fundamental
principle uf liberty—that the important
Republican question in New York is
not what does the party wish, but what
does Mr. Conkling say ? And in Penn
sylvania not what is the conviction of
the party, but what does Mr. Cameron
thean to do 7 Is this Republican or is it
Imperial? Louis the XIV said of
France, " I am the State." Rut a sys
tem which enables any member of a
political party to say with virtual truth
"Ism the party," is a system which, so
t far as that power extends, has destroy
ed popular government.
The Coming State Fair.
ARKAN'CEMENT* PROGRESSING AND A GRAND
SHOW I NSC RED.
From thtt Philadelphia Kacanl.
The arrangements for the State Fair
to be held at the permanent Kxbibition
next September are even at this early
date proceeding rapidly. festerday,
Messrs. 11. W. Seller and Kldridge
McConkey, the Recording and Corres
ponding Secretarier of the State Agri
cultural Society, arrived in thia city
after a prolonged tour in the West in
the interest of the fair. In conversa
tion last evening Mr. McConkey said
that many of the principal breeders of
the West had entered into the proposal
to become exhibitors at the lair with
enthusiasm, and that the show of short
horns and long wool and fine-wool
sheep from that section of the country
would be very fine. From the tenor of
the communications so far received it
is also certain that the show of Penn
sylvania cattle will be far above that of
last year.
The books of entry will be opened in
this city on Tuesday, July 20, and will
be closed on Tuesday, August 31. The
fair will open on September C, and
close on the 18th. On the 20th the
International Exhibition of Sheep,
Wool and Wool Products will be open
ed, continuing till the 25th. All ob
jects intended for the International
Exhibition, except sheep, must l>e en
tered and in tbeir places before the
opening of the fair, on September 6.
The prizes offered are, in most cases,
of double, and in some treble, the value
of these given last year. To the society
or organized club contributing the best
and largest collection of the grains,
seeds, vegetables and fruits of the coun
try in which it is located the first prem
ium is S2OO, and the second is SIOO.
For the !>e*t general assortment of
fruits of all kinds shown by individuals
or firms the premiums are $25 and sls.
There are special premiums for florists
of S4O, S3O and S2O for the bAt collec
tion of growing ornamental planjb,
while the gardeners are offered prem
iums of S3O, $25 and $5 for the same
class of exhibits. For designs in cut
flowers two premiums of $25 and sls
are promised. For collections of roots
tubers and bulbs, aud also of green
vegetables, prizes ranging from S3O to
sls will be given. Committee* of
cooperation have been appointed by
the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society
and the Pennsylvania State Fruit
Growers' Society. Both of these organ
izations have considered and approved
the premiums offered in the respective
divisions over which they will have
cognizance.
