THE CURTIN CASE.
We present to the readers of the
DEMOCRAT the following extracts from
the speech of Hon. John W. Ryon, of
the Schuylkill district, ou the contest
ed election case of Andrew G. Curtin,
delivered in the House of liepresenta-'
tives on the 12th of May last. These
extracts are taken from the conclud
ing portion of the speech. They dis
pose very conclusively of the law in
regard to unregistered votes, while the
tribute paid to Governor Curtin by
Mr. Ryon in his peroration, was a
compliment as eloquent and us beau
tiful in language as it was well he
stowed and worthily deserved :
"The legal result of receiving the vote
of a non-registered person the
proofs required by the registration act
would give to such vote the character of
illegality. This presumption, however,
might he overcome in any future con
test of such election by proof that the
voter was in point of fact a qualified
elector. To this extent only is there a
legal difference in the result, if the reg
istration net. he held to he directory
merely. The contestant proved by the
registration list and the polling lists
that between one and two thousand
non-regi9tered persons voted at the
election, and also furnished proof that
no affidavits to answer.to these non-reg
istered names had been returned and
filed in the prothonotary's office accord
ing to the requirements of the registra
tion law. Upon this state of facts lie
claimed that he had established by
competent evidence the illegality of all
such votes. As a legal proposition can
there he a doubt about it? Where the
law designates a plane for the filing or
recording of a written paper no search
for such paper is reqireu by law beyond
the designated pUce of deposit. The
absence of such paper from the place of
deposit raises the presumption of its
non existence. *Tho presumption that
a public officer has done his duty is
clearly rebutted by the absence from
the designated legal depository of the
affidavits which the law required should
be taken by the election board and
filed with the prothonotary. A clear
prima facie case of the illegality of this
large non-registered vote has been
made by the contestant, and if the con
testee wished to claim any benefit from
such vote the was upon'him to
show that the affidavits were duly taken
by the election hoard, and if not filed
with the prothonotary were either lost
or destroyed. .Such evidence was with
in the reach of the contestee, and his
failure to produce it raises the presump
tion that if produced the evidence
would have shown that the affidavits
were not taken.
It follows, then, that at that election
there was a large illegal and fraudulent
vote cast. But as to a large part of
this vote the evidence does not show to
which candidate it was given, or what
portion of it was given to each. This
fraudulent vote is groatly in exeess of
the official majority returned for the
sitting member. Where, therefore,
fraudulent votes have been cost at an
election sufficient in numbers to con
trol the result of the election, and so
mingled and mixed with the legal votes
cast as to render it Impossible to purge
the ballot-boxes and ascertain which
candidate received a majority of the
legal votea cast at such election, there
is hut one honest way of disposing of
the case, and that ia to declare the elec
tion void and refer the parties hack to the
people that a new election may he held.
At the election in the fall of 1878 there
were three candidates voted for in the
twentieth congressional district for gov
ernor, and the entire vote given for the
three was 24,511 votes, while the con
gressional vote in the same district was
26,835. The actual increased vote given
for the two candidates for Congress
over the vote given for governor was
2.324. In this state of facts is develop
ed one of the most remarkable circum
-9 stances in this case, almost unprece
dented in the history of elections in
this country since the foundation of the
Government. That the congressional
vote should exceed the total vote for
State officers is a most unusual circum
stance, and that 2,334 legal voters in that
diatriot should go to the polls and vote
alone for the congressional candidates
and refrain from voting for thckthe can-
didates for governor almost surpasses
human belief. This excessive vote cor
responds to a certain extent with the
number of non-registered votes ascer.
tained to have been given by the in
vestigation in this case. When con
sidered in connection with the fact that
the assessors are supposed to have done
their duty in making a registration of
all the quulitied electors in the district,
where the people are comparatively
stationary and generally well known, a
strong suspicion is raised that the ex
traordinarily large list of non-register
ed names represented ballots and not
men.
In this recital of facts, which are in
capable of successful refutation, are all
the indications of a most stupendous
and whispered fraud upon the ballot
boxes of that district.
It is in evidence in this case that 121
persons voted for the sitting member
without registration and without mak
ing the atliilavits and proof required by
the registration act. These voters were
examined, testified to the facts, and
the House has been referred to their
names and the pages of the testimony
in the case where the proof may be
found. These voters were clearly ille
gal and fraudulent, and as the number
exceeds the official majority by which
the Bitting member claima the seat, they
disprove his right to retain it, and would
fully justify the House in seating the
contestant.
In conclusion, I fully agree with the
honorable gentleman fiom Indiana in
all that he has suid of the patriotism,
statesmanship, and great intellectual
ability of Andrew G. Curtin. He would
honor a seat in the House much more
than he would be honored by it. I re
peat the gentleman's language to give
it greater emphasis. He was the friend
of the Union and gave to restore the
Union and maintain its integrity the
best efforts of his mngniticent intellect
ual abilities, lie honestly earned the
title of the great war governor of Penn
sylvania during the war of the rebellion.
Pennsylvania will ever feel a just and
exalted pride in the legions of Union
soldiers which her great war governor
organized and put in the field to de
fend the Constitution and Union. That
love of the Union which inspired him to
deeds of grandeur during the rebellion
drove him from the rankw of the repub
lican party after peace came and rebel
lion ceased. War had had its victories,
and he demanded that peace should
have hers. His nature was too noble,
his heart too large, and his sympathies
too broad to allow him to strike a fallen
' and prostrate foe. He was in full ac
' cord with the wise and moderate con
servatism of the North, and stood where
the lamented Lincoln would have stood
rf furious and misguided fanaticism bad
spared his life. Alarmed at the cen
tralizing tendencies of radicalism in
the.N'oith and a military despotism at
the South, in the presidential contest
of 1572 he took his place in the ranks
of the conservative element of the
country, and his warning voice was
heard everywhere among the sturdy
sons of the North against this new
peril that menaced free government.
In 1874 the lessons so impressively
taught had ripened into convictions,
and the elections of that year swept
from power in the popular branch of
our National Legislature those who had
abused the trust of the people and
threatened the destruction ol the Union
and Constitution. This emphatic warn
ing of the impending wrath of a free
and confiding people was the first check
given to the rapid march to centralized
power. To Andrew G. ('urtin and the
men who cooperated with him in the
noble work the American people owe
the accomplished fact of a restored
Union in which each .State occupies its
proper places, represented ill the Na
tional Legislalure by citizens chosen by
the free and unobstructed will of the
citizens of the Stales they represent.
To the efforts and influence of Andrew
G. Curtin and those who acted with him
the American people are indebted for
the fact that eleven States are repre
sented in the Congress of the United
States by citizens of their own, chosen
by the popular voice and not by scala
wags and carpet-bag plunderers, the
representatives of military despotism,
the most odious and hateful to the
Anglo-Saxon race of all the forms of
bail government which the world has
produced."
Iloratio Seymour.
n.ih.1.•!,,), Tim#*
Horatio Seymour is one of the few
men of our history who has more than
once been sought as a Presidential can
didate but who has never aimed to*pro
mote his candidacy for the first office
of the Republic. He may be justly
said to be. about the only man within
reasonable range of a hopeful Presiden
tial nomination who sincerely desires
not to be nominated, and who does
not covet the office. Advancing age
and threatened health have cooled the
ambition he displayed many years ago,
and he is stronger among the unorgan
ized Democratic masses than any other
m to-day, mainly because he is known
to have long since parted with political
ambition.
Iloratio Seymour is the ableat and
best of our living statesmen of any
party. He has more of the greater at
tributes of statesmanship than any of
the political leaders of our time, and,
if his health could be assured, he would
make one of the most competent and
Eatriotic Chief Magistrates the oountry
as ever had. He has filled important
Kositions in his own State ; has always
pen the strongest man his party could
select as its standard bearer, and his
official record is singularly free from
bletniMb. In disregard of his earnest
protest, he was nominated for Presi
dent in 18(18, and compelled to accept
the honor : but he obeyed reluctantly,
and held New York against Grant in
that memorable struggle. In 1876 he
was unanimously nominated for Gover
nor not by nolittcal mangers hut against
all their plans, and he peremptorily
declined. Whether he would accept
a nomination for the Presidency now,
is a question that none but himself
could answer; but it is certain that
nothing less than an imperative de
mand from the party would induce his
assent. He is the strongest of all the
leading men who have been discussed
for the Cincinnati nomination, not only
as an available candidate but in all the
qualities of a great Executive, and in
the uncertainty that now clouds the de
cision of the Convention the selection
of Horatio Seymour is altogether with
in the range of possibility.
NEWSPAPER OPINION.
tliu Clinton Douiourut.
A correspondent of the CKNTHE DKMO
CHAT strongly urges the re-nomination
of (lov. Curt in as the Democratic candi
date for Congress in this district, and
tho editors of that paper endorse the
suggestion of their correspondent in
emphatic terms. That (lov. Curtin was
fairly elected by a majority of legal
votes at tho last election was fully prov
ed before Congress, und he should
therefore have been awarded the seat,
but political (eeling on the part of the
Republicans and Greenpackers, together
with private resentments against some
of Curtin's leading friends in Congress,
gave the seat to Yocum. It is held now
by tho immediate personal friends of
(lov. Curtin and many other Democrats
that a vindication at the next election
is due him, especially in view of the
fact that when ho ran before there was
an extraordinary combination ngainst
him that cunnot exist again and that he
was kept out of his district during the
whole campaign by the constituted
authorities of the Democratic party,
serving it in the general field of battle.
There is at least sufficient force in the
suggestion to demand tho serious and
patriotic thought and attention of every
Democrat. The CENTRE DEMOCRAT also
insists that nine out of every ten Dem
ocrats in Centre county sustain its view
of the case.
Whatever the Democracy of the dis
trict may desire to do, it is to be hoped
they will clearly express in their county
conventions, and not fritter their voice
and their strength away in so-called
complimentary nominations. These
are always mischievous and frequently
disastrous. The issue in behalf of Gov.
Curtin is a plain one and ought to be
squarely met. If the Democracy of
any county want to vindicate or re-nom
nate him let them say so in a direct
and frank way. If they want to nomi
nate somebody else let them expressly
say so, and not name somebody they do
no not want, byway of compliment.
There has been enough of that baby
business—too much. When a county
really has no particular preference for a
candidate, it may be and no doubt is
quite proper to name some fit citizen
who has not sought the honor, as a com
pliment. Rut that practice has of late
years been seriously abused by men
coming forward and soliciting the com
pliment, begging, bargaining and coax
ing for it merely as a compliment, but
when they obtained it, to the exclusion
of u real preference, demanding the
selection of their own conferees and
then assisting on these adhering to
them to the very last, hoping that acci
dent, excitement, momentary anger or
resentment, or something ot that sort,
might bring about their nomination,
like lightning striking in sunshine. It
is against this latter batch of cheap,
low-priced demagogues that we protest.

Mr. Jenks, who was named for the

excellent lawyer, hut a roan of high

in public affairs. Col. Dechert is well

in the Democratic party in the State.

The Democrat who obtains at Cincin
nati two-thir s of the whole number of
votes cast has a claim upon the faithful
support of his whole party, infinitely
stronger than the candidate who may
be created a nominee by a majority of
one vote at Chicago ha* upon hia. The
impossibility of a weak or foolish choice
is guaranteed when -192 of the "38
representatives of Democracy in con
vention assembled agree upon a stand
ard-bearer.

If the Cincinnati Convention is con
trolled by men of wisdom, if the dele
gates to that convention desire to place
the success of Democracy beyond doubt,
they will, without unnecessary waste of
time, alter assembling, place General
Hancock in nomination for President
and some good western man for Vice
President. In that event, there would
he no doubt of the result next Novem
ber. Will they do it, or take the
chances of defeat with others that
might be narfied.
Cincinnati Kui|iilrer, Dcm.
There is a willingness to accept any
candidate who may be the choice of the
National Convention. There is no
Democratic desire to defeat any Demo
cratic candidate for the Presidency
after the nominating convention. There
is no vehement Democratic opposition
of a national character to any Demo
cratic candidate for the nomination.
There ia ja Democratic disposition to
elect the Democratic nominee. There
is a state of Democratic harmony. And
this, in contrast with Republican condi
tion, meana that the Democratic nomi
nee ia to be elected.

It is suggested by the New York
Tribune that possibly Mr. Abraham 8.
Hewitt may be held in reserve as the
much talked of dark horse. There is
one beauty about Mr. Hewitt which the
Tribune has neglected to notice-—ha
could beat anybody the Republican par
ly will nominate, and that, too, without
much effort.

Notwithstanding Mr. Hayaa' adminis

pointing with pride to iu record. It
even manifests a little pride in pointing
to Mr. Hayes himself.
Thut IlnrrlNhurg Court.
The Court held at our State Capital
perpetrates some queer freaks. The
Carlisle Volunteer cites the following;
"In the list of cases tried at the re
cent Court of (Quarter Sessions in Har
risburg, we find the following:
" Lewis Cobangh, larceny of a chicken—
three months in county jail.
" Elijah Km beck, larceny of two bush
els of coal—three months in county jail.
" Mark the contrast. The 'roosters'
attempt to steal millions from the peo
ple, ' plead guilty,' anil are sentenced
to the penitentiary ; then pardoned by
a Republican Board of Pardons. The
poor men take something to eal und to
keeb themselves warm, possibly from
necessity. Will they be pardoned ?
No. Their cases will never as much as
be considered by the Roard. Verily,
in these degenerate days of Republi
canism, it is extremely dangerous to be
poor."
