BUTI.BR.
By h to tho New York Ilornhl.
BOSTON, August 28, 1880.
General Butler has placed himself
squarely on the Hancock platform,
and auuounccd his intention to take
the stump in favor of the election of
the hero of Gettysburg. lie has also
officially stated that he is not a candi
date for any office, elective or appoint
ive this year. The meeting in h anueil
Hall, at which these declarations were
made, was large and enthusiastic, and
was composed of men representing all
shades of political optniou. There
were Democrats, Grecubackers, Inde
pendent Republicans, straight Repub
licans, and men on the political fence.
On the platform were such inen as
Isaac Hull Wright, representing the
Fanueil Hall wing; General A. P.
Martin and A. A. Haggerty, repre
senting the Butler Democracy; Al
bert Palmer, John I. Baker and An
drew J. Hall, representing the Butler
Republicans. Palmer presided, and
made a ringing speech, in which lie
declared squarely for Huncock. His
arraignment of the party with which
he has acted for twenty years, was one
of the most scnthiujj invectives in the
history of politics in this State for a
quarter of a century.
GENERAL BUTLER'S ADIJRPISS.
"By a wise provision of the Consti
tution the people are called upon at
every recurring period of four years
to pass solemn judgment upon the pol
icy. integrity ami efficiency of the ad
ministration of the government in the
past and to choose and appoint those
who shall administer their govern
ment in the coming like period. If
change of policy or administration of
government is needed it can only be
attained at a Presidential election.
Under our system of elections, prac
tically, the people must confer their
power upon one or two men only, as
the supreme executive head of the
nation. No third person can he sup
ported for President with any result
save in the nature of protest ngainst
the nominee of the conventions of the
two great political parties. There is,
therefore, no more solemu duty im
posed upon any patriot than to deter
mine which one of the two candidates
represents more nearly his convictions
upon the greatest number of the meas
ures and principles of government.
All history teaches that long contin
uance in power breeds corruption in
the administration of governmental
affairs; that corruption always seeks
perpetuation, and fears change of ad
ministration lest its wickedness may
be detected even if not punished.
******
When any one of niy Republican
friends desire to put to me a political
question which he deems unanswer
able, he asks, "How can you act with
the Democratic party which under
took to break up the Union which
yon fought to sustain?" The trouble
with your question, my friends, is that
you have have forgotten the history of
your country. A portion of the Dem
ocratic party undertook to secede
from the Union, and thereby broke up
the Democratic party. If the Demo
cratic party had undertaken to break
up the Union the Union would surely
have been broken up. Does any sane
man not blinded by partisan prejudice
doubt that without prompt, vigorous,
loyal, courageous and patriotic action
of the masses of the Democratic party
that it would have been possible for
the Republican party to have preserv
ed the Uniou ? Look at the rank and
file of our armies! They were as
largely recruited from the Democratic
as from the Republican party. For
the correctness of this assertion let me
speak of my own knowledge. I
marched to the Gulf with a New Eng
land division containing 6,000 men,
and there could not have been found
600 men in that division who had ever
voted any other than the Democratic
ticket. They came back voting for
the Union for which they fought, and
they save been voting in tho same di
rection Bince, and will continue so to
vote when they vote with the Dem
ocracy for Haneock, by whose side
they fought.
THE COLOR LINE.
Can the Republican administration
katJL •
protect tho Southern colored niau in
all his rights, anil will they so do?
Kiuce the war closed, for sixteen years
tho Republican party have had abso
lute control of tho executive depart
ment, and, until tho last Congress, of
the legislative department of the gov
ernment, ami most of the time by a
two-thirds majority. Has that party
given protection to the negro in the
souse in which they put tho necessity
for so doing beforo the people? Their
very campaign cry is an admission
that they have not so done. If ut
the end of sixteen years they claim
they must be continued in power four
years longer that they may do it, how
long shall we, who have some convic
tions as to the misconduct of the party
in other regards as well as in this, put
up with nil the other shortcomings of
thejlepublic&n party, in order to have
them fulfill their promises, so often
solemnly made, and as religiously
broken.
PROSPERITY FROM ON HIGH.
The only other reason given why
the Republican partv should be con
tinued in power is the present pros
perity of the country, which, tlicy do
not explain how, is due to the legisla
tion or administration of the Republi
can isirty. Is this claim a just and
tenable one? Every business that
could not be effected by legislation or
administration is prosperous. The
Almighty, in his beneficence to lis, bus
scut us the largest crops, of ull kinds
of provisions for a scries of years we
ever enjoyed, and at the same time
also provided a market for the surplus
of those crops, amounting iu a single
item to nearly 20(1,000,0(10 bushels of
wheat in Europe by the failure of the
harvest there. Had the Republican
party anything to do with that ? Yet
the agricultural prosperity is claimed
for that party. The balance of trade
in our favor was due to that excess of
export over import. Is that due to
the Republican administration?
HANCOCK DI'KINH THE KIOTS.
THE RELATIONS OF REOULAR TROOPS TO THE
CIVIL AUTHORITIES.
From the New York World, Bc|*t*iabr
Mr. R. 11. McKune, of Scranton,
Pa., who was Mayor of that city dur
ing the railroad riots of 1877, is now
stopping in Now York, lie was call
ed upon yesterday by a reporter, who
asked him what were his relations to
General Hancock during those days
of trouble.' Mr. McKune said: "At
the time of the riots, which began on
August 1,1877, I bad a po*c comittilm
composed of thirty-five citizens which
had beeu summoued by my command,
as I believed I bad powers equal to
those of the sheriff. My posse went
on duty ou August 1. On the morn
ing of the second two regiments of
State troops arrived, ami on the third
one or two companies of regulars. By
the loth of August there was a regi
ment of State troops anti a regiment
of regulars stationed at Scranton by
Governor Hartranft for my assistance
if they should be needed. The fact
that there were Federal and State
troops stationed in the town raised a
question with me as to how I should
use them. Maj. Morrow commanded
tho Federal troops, and he did not
feel willing to give me such informa
tion regarding my right to call UJKHI
his troops as I deemed satisfactory.
Therefore on tho 18th of August I
wrote to Geueral Hancock requesting
him to give me such information as to
my status as Mayor of the city in
relation to the Federal troops station
ed in the city as would enable me to
perform my duties. In answer he sent
me tho following letter:
HEADQUARTERS 1
MILITARY DIVISION OF THE ATLANTIC, >
NEW YORK, August 20, 1877,)
"' To Hon. 11. 11. McKune, Mayor o/
Scranton, I'a.
"'SIR: 1 have the honor to ac
knowledge the receipt of your commu
nication of the Ifrih inst.
" ' The United States troops were sent
to Scranton, on the application of the
Governor of the Slate, to assist in pre
serving the peace. They were reported
to the Governor and are subject to the
same legal service as the State troops
there. I'hey should not be called upon
however, until the civil pome and the
State troops have proved insufficient,
or unless they are insufficient without
the assistance of the Federal troops.
"' The commander of the Federal
troops on the spot is responsible for his
legal action in the premises. He has
been advised on the subject heretofore
and is no doubt fully aware of hht du>
ties under all circumstances. Ido not
wish to embarrass him by giving him
any further advice or instructions,
directly or indirectly. If he wishes
such he will doubtless call upon mo for
thetn.
"' As the preservation of order is
primarily in the hands of the Governor
pf the .State, I think it would be better
for you to communicate with him when
the circumstances are not of so impera
tive a nature as to make it necessary for
you to communicate directly with the
commander of the troops on the spot.
" ' Who may be the legal conservator
of the peace in Scranton (whether the
Mayor or Sheriff, or both) I cannot
say. That ia a question of law, and
you and the commander of the troops
can readily determine it. Either the
Mayor or the Sheriff, or both (if they
have co-equal power under the law in
that respect in the city) have legal au
thority to call upon the United States
troops in certain contingencies to assist
in the preservation or the peace. I
am, sir, very respectfully, your obedient
servant. WiwriELD 8. RANCOUR.
"' U. S. A., Commanding
Division.' "
'"What was the result of this letter
so far as you were concerned V'
" 'The Federal troops were with HI
übout four mouths. I had no need to
call upou them, as the Htate troop
were sufficient for the purposo. The
Federal troops, however, had groat
influence iu preserving quiet and in
preventing disruption by their mere
presence. The letter from Gen. Han
cock was just what I wanted. There
was no necessity for my calling upon
the Federal troops until my own force
as Mayor and tho Htate force was ex
hausted. All of my posse were in
dicted for murder on tho verdict of
tho Coroner's jury, and one of the
cases being tried as a test case, all
were acquitted."
REPUBLICAN EXTRAVAGANCE.
A BAMIM.B Or TIIK KXI'KNOITI'RBS IN THE
IiKI'ARTMEN'TS IN WASHINGTON
From the N.-w York Sun.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 28,1880.
The? Attorney-General's office affords
a striking illustration of the official
abuses which have grown to full stat
ure during the long lease of pqwer the
Republican party has enjoyed. The
luxuries of the Attorney-General's of
fice for a periotl of five years, from
1874 to 1878 inclusive, cost the tax
payers 822,702.44. The report of the
Attorney-General for 1870 shows 85,-
762.63 expended in the following man
ner. This is what the official carriage
cost :

In edition to the money paid to

amounted to $98.35, and miscellane
ous literature cost 8158.25.
Among the miscellaneous expenses
were the following:

Making i total of $5,762.03 spent for
"sundries," includiug the carriage, in
one year. In 1878 tho taxpayers
paid a hill of $184.65 forn trip of the
Attorney-General to Colorado, and an
other of 839.75 for a fiver to Long
Rruneh. A sample of the purchases
made with the money of the people is
shown in the accounts for 1877. The
sum of $22.20 was expended to pur
chase tho following boohs, which may
he indispensable to a gentleman's li
brary, hut are not needed in the I>e
partment of .Justice: "Life of l'riuce
Consort," "Life of Mnric Antoinette,"
"Life of Seward," North American
Review, and British Quarterly. In
1877, 81,305 was expended for a por
trait of ex-Attorney-General I'ierre
pont. The sum of $1,035.83 was paid
for "washing towels" in the period of
five rears.
Landaulet. Williams fell into dis
grace chiefly because lie expended the
money of the government for the pur
chase of a carriage in which he drove
about town with his wife. Almost
every member of Haves' Cabinet
drives for pleasure in vehicles belong
ing to the government. I'ierrejiont
expended more money than Williams
did for official luxuries. Tuft's ex
penditures in that line exceeded those
of l'ierrcpont, and the aristocratic
Devens lias run up the hills to a great
er figure than Williams ever ap
proached.
——
Real Statesmanship.
Ft.ni S.w York Sun.
Tested by his official acts in Ixiuisi
ana and Texas, Gen. Hancock stands
head and shoulders above all other
commanders at that time in the ap
preciation of his duties as a soldier
under the Constitution, and in subor
dinating the military to the civil au
thority wherever law was to lie ad
ministered or obeyed. His remarka
ble Order No. 40 was a lesson to offi
cers who delighted to exercise arbi
trary power oppressively, and who
were sustained at Washington ir. all
their excesses, as well as an example
of voluntary submission, which entitles
him to the highest credit. In a sub
sequent order, known as No. 203, is
sued on December 5, 1867, he defined
the proper use of military power in
such clear and concise terms that it
will always be recognized as the true
application of tho principle which
marks the dividing line between law
and force under Republican institu
tions:
"The true and proppr use of military
power, besides defending the national
honor against foreign nation*, is to up
hold the laws and civil government,
and to a< cure to every person reaiding
among us the enjoyment of life, liberty
ami property."
"The Commanding General, in the
discharge ol the trust reposed in him,
will maintain the just power of the
judiciary, and is unwilling to permit
the civil authorities and laws to be em
barrassed by military interference."
Again from tho letter to Governor
Pease:
"It la of evil example, and full of
danger to the cause of freedom and
good government, that the exercise of
th military, through military tribunals
created for the trial of offenses against
tho civil law, should ever be permitted,
when tho ordinary powers of the exist
ing Htate governments are ample for
the punishment of offenders, if those
charged with the administration of the
laws are faithful in the discharge of
their duties."
These maxims are not only sound,
but they serve to show what is more
important, thut this great soldier was
as careful in his studies of the Con
stitution, and of dutiful obedience to
ifrt obligations, as l.e was in those of
the profession of which he is to day
the brightest ornament. No civilian
however distinguished, and no states
man however eminent, could have bet
ter laid down the rule of conduct
which should govern a soldier intrust
ed with civil responsibility, or have
better outlined the principles of con
stitutional law applicable to it, than
(Jen. Hancock has done. I nlike too
many who are conteut with empty
professions, he lived up to every dec
laration. His letter to (Jen. .Sherman,
written in the midst of the confusion
at Washington, and when many of
those accounted most wise had lost
their heads in the Presidential compli
cation, may well Imj regarded as an
extraordinary production. Compared
with the speeches on both sides, it ex
hibits Gen. Hancock as a profouuder
student of the theory of our Govern
ment and of its practical working
than almost any of the professional
"statesmen" who figured conspicuously
on that occasion, not much to the ad- j
vantage of their reputations.

I'ulinur, of Illinois, wherein be R|M*Hks
f Garfield's record, we are permitted
copy from a letter of his to a gentle
man in this city what Gov. I'almcr did
suy. Ah the governor wa at the front
at the time hi* testimony will be re
garded an unquestionable by any one
who knows the high character of the
man. The following is the extract:
"In one of mv speeches I said, in
speaking of fieri, f iai field, 'that in Octo
ber. 186'J, after our army wo* checked
ul Cbickamauguaand hud fallen hack to
Chattanooga and wan confronted at all
points south of the Tennessee river by
the rebel army under General Bragg;
when our lines of communication were
straightened and difficult and our sup
plies reduced, and it was apparant that
nothing was left for us hut a disastrous
retreat or a bloody battle, with our
enemy in position, General Garfield left
us and quit the army. He had the
legal right to abandon the beleaguered
army, but his conduct demonstrated
that he was without soldietly instincts
or sympathies." Governor Palmer also
mentioned the singular fact that Gen
era! Garfield consented to abandon the
command of troops in the field, his own
regiment included, und accepted the
I mere staff position which he held in
i 1 W>3. and wh< n he left the army in (>c-

The Rebel Debt.
j Prom tl Cbk Inn**, !oi)
To -ay of the whole body of "cam
paign literature" and slump oratory
with which the country is now cursed
that it is unmitigated rubbish, would
be to state a general truth. Corning
down from the general to the partieu
lar, perhaps the most eon tempt aide
part of all this flood of rubbish (ex
cepting that which comprise* mud
throwing at the candidates or flu ir
great-grandmothers), i- that which sets
forth a harrowing fear that if Han
cock, instead of Garfield, should hap
pen to get the first office, not only the
rebel war debt would be paid, but
every ex-slave owner would In* com
pensated out of the public treasury
for the loss of his slave properly. The
Times will not uuiligu the personal
character of the slump orators who
emit such stuff as this bv presuming
that they harbor any such belief, or
feel any such fear. They do not.
Though they are demagogues, it does
nut follow that they are finds, and only
hopeless and irreclaimable idiots could
attach any weight whatever to the
danger they not only suggest but al
lege.
The True Ring.
Marshall 8 wart z welder, on* of the
ablest lawyers in Western Pennsylva
nia and a lifelong Republican, can't
stand De Golycr Garfield and has
just announced bis intention to sup
port General Hancock. Mr. .Swartz
welder cava:
Hancock is a thoroughly honest man.
He comes from a good stock, and pos
sesses some of those virtues that are
now only seen as rare curiosities; that
have become fossilized and obsolete in
public life. He will make a history for
himself second to none who have occu
pied the Presidential cbair. <tf course
he will be maligned and villified, bis
acts misinterpreted and his motives
impugned by the ragtag and bnbtai! of
the country; hut he will do his duty
nevertheless. He has the requisite firm
ness. One of the strongest arguments
in Hancock's favor is his unquestioned
honesty as against the at least suspect
ed honesty of Garfield.
The Fraud Issue.
Fr Ih* Detroit IW PrM
The confidence of the Republican or
gans that the fraud iasue is de-ad Is an
affectation. They know better. They
are seeking, perhaps, to persuade them
selves that they have one less lion to
encounter in the campaign ; but thus
far they have not succeeded, and there
is no probability that they will.
It is the baldest of all possible pre
tenses that the retirement of ex-Oov
Tilden eliminates the Presidential theft
of 1876-77 from the contest. It is a
pretense which involves the grossest
misconception of what the ' fraud imue'
really is.
The Republican party stands convict
ri J? .* th ° °° un try with deliberate
falsification of tbo vote of two State* in
the Presidential election of 1876 Its
candidate for the Presidency is one of
the men who manipulated the machine
whereby that falsification was made
eflective and the party enabled to put
in the Presidential office the man whom
the people had repudiated at the polls.
The question is whether the tmrty
that committed this oolossal crime
against the cause of free government
and the purity of the ballot boa, is fit
to be intrusted with the power it usurp
ed; whether the criminal shall be in
vited to retain tbe property be stole
With the answer to this question the
candidacy or non candidacy of Mr. Til
den has nothing to do. His nomination
would not have increased tbe criminal
ity of the Republican party in this re
gsrd. The failure lo nominate him does
not palliate that criminality or relieve
the people from the solemn responsi
