Bome of them, I think, are now, and tho atutement of othors will not bo inappropriute at this time, In tho tirat place, {t should be clenrly «under- stood that the responsibility for tho scheme he longa to tho Democratic party. The term Fuslonista, used In the press dispatches from hore, hns, doubtlosé, misled many people into thebellef that atthe worst tho Democrats of Malno have only 2 divided load of {gnominy to. curry. Tho truth 1s, the whole heap belongs on tho shoulders of tholr party. Their ully, the Greenback purty, 18 2 poor mongrel ecrenture, short-lived, naeverybody knows, und good for nothing, while it Hives, but to fetch and enrry for {ts Democratic masters. Tho purposo of the plot was to sccuro tho Eloctoral vote of Maino for tbo Domocrats, or to so vilinte it us to furnlsh on oxeuso for its rejection by Congresa, In upholding tho conspiravy the Greenbuok organs have been more ontspokes than the Democratic papers—in fact, they hive hecn almost feroclous, The Belfast <dge, the Culais Times, and Foge's Tathor Chrontele, of At burn, edited by Col. Woody Vietorin, Woodhull Inte brevet ‘husband, have been frantically shricking for violent mensures to sustain tho fraud. Not tn single Democratic paper, how- ever, bua called a hult or counseled obedience ta the Court. The Bangor Commercial, the Portland Argus, tho Rockhuid Opinton, the Matne Stand- ard, tha Lewiston Gazctte,—In short, tho whole Democratic press of tho State,—hus encouraged tho conspirators to persist in tholr wicked sehemo for overturning populur government jn Malne, because they knew that the fruitaof gts voss wero to be guthored by the Natloaul Demo-* eratic purty, TI REAL CRIM, Briefly stated, the crime of the Democrats and thalr tools, the Groenbuckers, wus as follows: In the House the Ropublicans bad ninety members “and the Demacnits sixty-one, Garcelon and his Couneil counted out seventeen Republicans and counted In soventeon Democrats or Greenback~ ora right agalnst the face of the returns and tho obvious and known vote of the towns, ‘They atvo refused, in tho case of: lie Nye cltics of Portland, Saco, Bath, Rockland, und Lewlston, to gl¥e certifloutes to the men elected, on the ground thut the returns were signed by only three Aldermen, ‘Thosv returns wore mude on Dlanks sent out by the Secretary of State, who was in the plot, which contained ruled spaces for the signatures of three Aldermen and no more, Having inialed the election authorities of five Republicun cities by those ollticinl blanks the cunspiraters proceeded to disf tern isfrunchise these cities ultogethor. Thoy thon refused to seat tholr Representatives after the Supreme Court bad deoided the returns to be amplo and sufticient. In theense of the soventeon Kepresontatives counted out the Court decided that evory one of them was entitled by law to his sout, but the bogus Fusion Legisiuturo refused to adult them, ‘Thus twenty-nine Inwfully-elected Rop- resentatives woro excluded. Meaides, the con- sptrators cooked up bogus contesta,with chargos: of bribory, to unsent othor Republicans, In tho Sonate thoy counted out eight Republicans and counted tu elght Fuslonists, Tho same tactles employed in the House wero upplied to the Sen- nto, tho rejection of tie vote of whole tuwns for Ropresentatlves carrying with tt the seating of Fuslonista from tho Senntorlal Districts contain Jug those towns. Thus no ditfercnt sort of rascal ity was noeded to stea) the Senate from that do- . sud to capture the lower brunch of tho Leglata- ure. In all tho thirty-seven cases whore the ors protendad that the returna were *, tho Senator ur Representative shown evted by the returns was a Republican, Nota solltary nin was #& Domocrit or Greens backer, ‘The whole proceoding was an open, scaudalous, undeniable fraud, THY MOTIVE POR TIE Chim, Tho control of the ftute Govornmont for a year was u mere incidental feature of this gross: and palpable crime ayalnst free government. Tho chief object which the conspiritors had in ylow was to cnpture tho Electoral vote of the Stato if posatble, and in any eyont to provtnt its being counted for the Hopublicuns.

Everything waa fo ite favor from the start.
