EVERYTHING ALIUNDE, WITH
THE REPUBLICANS.
Remarks of Hon. S. S. Cox, in the U. S.
Hotxi of Representatives, in Rela
tion to the Electoral Com
mission. Mr. Cox. Mr. Speaker, after many
yeara of active service as a member of this
house, recalling all the vicissitudes of our
politics for twenty years, I cannot feel
responsible to day that after the verdict of
the American people it should prove a
fruitless verdict In 1864, on the 16th of
May, I presented a resolution to this house
which passed. It i elated to the regularity
and authenticity of tho returns of electoral
votes and for a law to provide for the juris
diction as well as the course of proceeding
in case of a "real controversy." The ju
diciary committee took no action at that
time. Allow me to quote the resolution.
It is a compend of the situation:
?ftnp(i, Tht the Judiciary committee be direct
ed to take Into consideration the propriety of
reporting s bill providing (or the decision ot any
questions which may arise as to the regularity and
authenticity of the returns of the electoral vote
for president and vice president of the United
States, or the right of the persons who save the
voles, or the manner In which they ought to be
counted; and that such law provide for the juris
diction, aa well as tbe course of proceeding, in a
case of real eoutrovcry.
Peril fives the lessons of years in a day,
Unless danger is followed by diseased and
gloomy misfortune, its lessons are medi
cine and its teaching light. All the reme
dies for human ills do not come from
political society; nor do all tbe splendors of
the heavens cure the remediless. Hope
buoyed up the soul of a great people dur
ing fifteen years of wrong. It still sus
tained them after fraud had tainted and
pestilent wrens had shrouded the verdict
of an uprisen people. Hope itself almost
perished in view of the events since the
election, and especially those which this
congress has witnessed.
The people of the United States, desir
ing unity and peace, honesty and rejuven
escence, spoke in all legal forms provided
by a complicated system of electors in fa
vor of a party whose traditions, .prin
ciples, and history of honorable
service have rendered it deathless,
and against a new party ot expedients and
pretensions. It was unmistakably called
to the high places of the land. It matters
not who were its select exponents or can
didates; and it matters not now what were
its shibboleths and platforms. Whether
wise or not, far sighted or not, just to all
races and sections or not, prudent in
economy, provident in matters of tax and
JUc or not, organic and faithful to the rules
of constiuction applied under the gen
ius of our peculiar polity or not, the un
questioned popular majority of three
hundred thousand pronounced for relief
and change, and for the Democracy as
the directing organ of that relief and
change.
By the system of state and federal au
thority this federal change and relief was
to be certified by certain state organisms
and veiified by a certain procedure under
our federal constitution.
It was early made clear by certain man
euvcrs and devices of politicians that the
voice of the people of two if not three
btutcs was to be muffled, or rather that a
false voice was to be heard in the land
proclaiming that which was not for that
which was, It was the siren voice of
Duesf a and nut the blessed voice of Una.
It was a voice which sounded high for
state rights like that of the actor through
the Grecian mask, hollow and tnockiog,
while at the same time it seemed to pra
ceed from some hero or demigod raised
to unusual height by the tricks of the
stage.
Nor, sir, do I feel responsible for the
steps which were wisely perhaps, or un
wisely, but certainly with a view to pru
dence, taken in framing the electoral bill,
That bill is the law. We know what it is.
what its provisions aro. I knew and felt
that some virtue had gone out of the
house when we had passed it, but I did
not exactly see where the virtue had
alighted. ILaughtcr, I knew the old
privileges of the commons had departed.but
in the interest ot peace I gave a reluctant
vote for tho bill.
It was voted in a spirit of confidence
and in a moment of peril, and under terror
ot force and revolution which speaks more
for the caution than for the pluck of our
people. Still it was voted. We are bound
by its decisions, but not by its reasons
J he laith ot those who voted it was strong
in the integrity and purity ot their case;
and next in the fidelity and independence
of tho tribunul. e placed our faith in
the ermine. Tho little animal which
wears its fur and is too dainty to be soiled,
and would rather be caught and killed
than to be bedraggled in the mire, has at
last Inst its reputation, and becomes one in
the future with the returning board of
partisan politics.
But one strange thing about the bill is
this: that while wc are permitted to vote
in this house, yet after all it is a sort of
2t mortem vote. Laughter. ! Although
we aro permitted to argue, it is a arqu
vvntum ad post factum- Although, sir.
there is some utility in the dissection of
tho dead and although there may be some
thin? gained bv the dissection of the liv
ing, laughter,! yet it seems to me to be
proper now to lock at oue particular clause
of the law before 1 state my reasons for
making protest against this measure.
We are graciously permitted under this
bill to argue after the matter is accom
plished, and although we vote and although
wo carry our vote in the house we are
"gone." ILaughtcr. We gain nothing.
We are permitted to talk ten minutes
after the counting and the conclusion. It
is the old Yirgilian line over again about
Khadamanthus, judge of hell Casiigatque
audit que aolos tne old rule ot haugtog a
man and trying him afterward. Laughter.
That is our condition to day.
And what is it we try ? Why, tir, every
thing as to testimony and facts, and for
gery and perjury, and force is aliunde
outside not to be considered. Truth and
justice and morality and fair dealing
aliunde. Tho house is aliunde. Laugh
ter. All its acts and the acts of its com
mittees and their reports, all the facts
gathered in these southern states aliunde!
Laughter. J Nothing to be considered but
the bare, naked iact of a certificate, based
upon what? Ou torgery and chicanery.
On a returning board, which returned the
fact that 10,4()0 Democratic votes were not
counted; and the supervisor of registra
tion of Louisiana whoso business was to
transmit the votes, but who failed to trans

they came only four hours were left

venae of trust
Why. Mr. Speaker, some member over
there said he was sick of fraud, of the cry
of fraud. Earth is sick and heaven is
weary of the hollow words which states
men and judges use when they talk of
right and justice when such things can be
accomplished. I tell you, Mr. Speaker, by
human law there is no statute of limita
tions to protect fraud. It never runs for
fraud. In divine law it is written, "There
is no rest for the wicked." ILaughter.
Every avenue of societv. Everv relation
of trust which permeates shah at last be
investigated and made null. Crime cannot
breed crime forever; strength shall not al
ways aid the strong. The time will come.
if not now, in some near future, when gen
tlemen on the other side, who now laugh
and taunt because of this condition in
which the Democrats are caught, will re
pent of this great crime of history of which
they are particeps criminis.
Time never runs to condone fraud, and
in all God's universe there is to be cease
less unrest for its vicious votaries. Quib
bles from lawyers, technicalities from
judges, special snapperadoes from the in
tellect are as grass before the mower
where fraud taints and blackens. The
peop'e) cannot understand why it
should be protected. Chop logic
and split hairs to the nicest division
of logomachy, call in the schoolmen, make
your legal syllogism and refine your sub
tleties, the everlasting rule remains that
where fraud is found nullity and void fol
low. Foxes by no doubling or hunting, by
no cunning and craft can confound the fact
that fraud is the most offensive element in
human society, and most to be feared when
the fox takes the form of the ermine.
Ah! they called in the ermine to help
them. The ermine is a little animal. It
is aa emblem of purity; it would rather
be caught than be bedraggled in the mire.
Hunters put mud around its haunt to
oatch it. But wherd is the ermine now?
Ah! the fox has become the ermine. But
no cunning, no craft, no human law, no
divine law can ever condone fraud. All
nodes and the histories ot all nations cry
out against it. Crime cannot breed crime
forever. Ask the people of this country
Fraud is to them an endless offense.
was about, Mr. Speaker, before the ham
mer fell, to refer to the wholy writ, so
that gentleman on the other side may have
time tor repentance,
Here the hammer fell.
Laughter and applause.
Mr. Danford rose.
Mr, Cox. With permission of the house
I will read from Psalms 94, verse 20:

Mr. Southard. I hope the gentlemen
on that side will listen to those words, that
they have time to repent.

Established 1843.
Made at the eldest Anvil manufactory In this
country. All E nglish Anvils, 6fter a time, become
hollowing on t'.ie face by continued hammering in
use, on accoon t of the fibrous natnre of the wrought
iron causinsr it to "settle," under the steel.
But the borty of the Ragle Anvil being of crys
tallized iron, such settlint? cannot occur: and the
steel face therefore remains perfectly true. Also,
it naB ine great advantage, that being of a more
solid material, and, consequently, with less re
bound, the piece forged receives the FULL effect
of tbe hammer, mstead of a part of it being wasted
by the rebound, as with a wrought iron Anvil.
More work can therefore be done on this Anvil
with a hammer one-fifth lighter than required for a
wronght iron Anvil which Is more elastic.
