Tribune tries to offset" the Maine infamy by the late contested eleotion case in Desmoines county, wherein John Ballard waa declared elected Treasurer over C. Hutchison, who contested. It Bays (copying from the Keokuk Constitution) that I'the radioal board refused to count mis-spelled votes for Aj 0. HutchiBson." The decision of Judge Phelps," as printed in the Burlington Gazette (Dem.) ot the 3d shows! that this statement is absolutely false. that decision he says: In my judgment, any rule established by the courts, which deprives the voter of the benefit of his ballot, because he fails to spell the name of the candidate correctly, ia an- unjustifiable and unwarrantable invasion of his constitution al right of suffrage.

As ta the question whether the miti in the surname must be correct, I ta the ml to be that lhe initials, or one them, jmust be correctly given. The middle Christian nanfti is not necessarily a part of the name, but if the party is commonly called or known by that name, its initial, correctly, would be suf-ficient,) I further hold that wherever, by the writing on the face of the ballot, the name is iden sonans with that of either candidate, or an evident abbreviation of it is to be counted for that candidate, that whenever the surname is given with the correct initials, or one of them, or where the surname is given without initials, it should be counted ior the candidate of that name: but, when the Christian name is entirely different from that of the candidate, the vote should not be counted for him. Under this liberal ruling by a Repub-- lican Judge, all the mis-spelled ballots with Hutchinson's name on them were given to him, but he claimed three votes which the Judge refused to allow one for Hutchinson," one for MH. Hawkinson," and another for "Hawkin-eon-'jThe Judge says with' reference to these: The mere fact that there were no such men as Hawkinson or Wm. Hutch inson known as candidates for the office in controversy, cannot, justify the court in changing the ballot from its plain and unambiguous wording.

The result oik the baste of Judge Phelps decision was that Ballard had four majority. Had the same liberal principles been applied by and his Council in like questions which arose in Maine, there would have been no just cause of complaint by the Re publicans. In its editorial columns last evening, our neighbor says that the Maine case differs from Louisiana, inasmuch as noi "fraud, intimidation or violence" are charged in the former State. On the telegraphic page, same issue, appears the fact that i Hobson. Greenback, insists that he isjentitled to a seat in the Maine legislature, "on the eronnd of fraud, in tkiidatioa and bribery" used to defeat him.

The Journal is a funny paper. Tribunel It is still true, nevertheless, that the ehanges made by Garcelon's Council, ousting 37 Republican members of the Legislature, were made wholly on tech nical grounds. No pretense is made by the Council that its action was based on "fraud, intimidation or violence," nor is there any evidence worthy of consider ation that mere was not a tree and iair election in! the State, Mr. Hobson to the contrary, notwithstanding. Iowa's Choice foe the Presidency, From the tone of an editorial in the Desmoinea Register of the 7th, we judge that it is not in favor of Grant.

The Register, more than any other paper the State, perhaps, is regarded as an exponent of its public opinion. That paper is disposed, all events, to give all sides a fair hearing. In regard to the three leading candidates, we think the stand in popular favor in this State as follows: Blaine. Grant. Sherman.

The Journal, however, for its own choice, would reverse the order, while it thinks Grant has decidedly the inside track in the chances in the" Chicago conven tion. 1 A man who refuses a bribe of $1,000 is over-virtuous, according to the Journal and Republican code of mor als.

The bullion deposited is to be carried as rapidly as possible and ap plied to the payment ot the bonded debt, but there shall always be kept in the treasury gold and silver coin equal to one-third of the out-standing coin certihcates.

It is obvious that if the tenant farmers paid, no rent, they would be better off for a little time in the same way that they would be better off if they did not pay tor their clothes and for the provisions they purchase. The proceedings of Jfarnelhtes are peculiar. They assert that the farmers cannot pay their rent in bad times and as a remedy they pro pose that they should pay the rent and a large sum in addition to the government for a term of years. Are they certain will not come bad harvests in that period? Do they think that the government would make abate ments and trouble their heads about the condition "hi their tenants? The Parnellites recommend to do that which is illegal, but beg them to keep within the limits of the law. They urge them to keep possession of the property, money or land belonging to Others, excite them to the expression oi a sentiment which implies a determina tion to shoot clear of creditors rather than pay the debts due to them, and apparently fail to see that they are recommending theft and condoninsr mur der.

They claim to have the welfare of the Irish people at heart and endeavor to prevent them bettering their condi- finn The experiment in the way of peasant proprietorship might be tried. It is hard to theorize in such matters. In a very exceptional case it might prove a success. An unusually prudent man might succeed in getting and keeping his tree hold, and where the' farm contained a large proportion of unimproved but im provable lands, its yield might iceep pace for a time with the increasing number of human beings to be supported by it. I tfear.

however, that the experiment would invariably prove a lamenta ble failure. I am sorry, for I should like to see a numerous class of small propri etors. 1 he sense ot ownership and teel ing of i independence arising from it induces a self-respect and besets a manly. patriotic spirit. Anything that encourages the unnatural accumulation of landed property in the hands of a few is to be-deprecated, but if it tends to do so, through purely natural causes, nothing short of unnatural and improper means can check the tendency.

THE BRUTISH IJTES. A Letter Published by Mrs. Meeker Re- citing a Sickening Story. Special to Globe-Democrat. Alamosa, Jan.

5. The excite ment prevailing over the Ute trouble in Colorado has been somewhat i increased bv a letter published recently from Mrs, N. Meeker, disclosing the fact that each ana all or the women were held as captives' after the massacre at White river suffered the violation of their persons, through tears. ot worse treatment at the hands ot these red devils. The evidence was given ta the Commission by the women in their examina tion on their release from captivity.

While! in the Gunnison country, it was first distinctly understood by them that this evidence or their mistreatment should be used only by the Commission in their efforts to establish the guilt of the Indians who had perpetrated the outrages. Each and all the captives begged that this phase or their horrible misfortune shou-ld not be given to the public. It seems to have been, their situation as a choice between death or Aubmission to the hellish de signs of their captors. The! examination further discloses that they were permitted, as the last alternative, with the exception ot Mrs, Meeker, to choose from among the chietsi who should live with them. Dur ing the terrible suspense which their captivity must have been, following the massacre at the agency, this evidence.

was confided to the commission: among whose records it has lain 'j dormant, awaiting the tardy channels of justice from the department of the interior, until the horrible suspicion was en hanced by the appearance in print of Mrs. Meeker letter. The Indians, in speaking of the ravishing of the women subsequently, seemed to regard the act as in perfect keeping with the style of warfare in which they are fond of in dulging. It is known that Persunnes took Josephine Meeker, and came very near having a personal encounter with Douglas concerning his selection. An Uncompaghre Ute next took Mrs.

Price, who was afterward turned over to Johnson. Douglas says that no one took Mrs. Meeker, as she was too old, and he thought she ought not to be running around loose without being cared for, so he took her. if: Four Persons In one Family Burned In tneir Dwelling. San Francisco, Jan.

Ihe liepubiicans are in a large majority and all the leading men ot the party are in the city. In their appeal to the Governor the committee asking for the removal of arms from the state house say: "Never before in our history has an armed man been seen within the walls of that building devoted by our fathers to order, law and peace.

It is a great public scandal that at the very portals of a build'ng thus consecrated, armed sentinels should be pacing and that pss-words, inspections and signals are requisite of admission within its walls. Free laws cannot be enacted under the presence armed forces, and it is a cruel mockery to ask the legislature of Maine to assemble with such surroundings." The order for issuing tickets for admission to the State House tp-morrow proved to be extremely ottensive and been rescinded. i A caucus of the Fusion members of the Senate'was held this evening.

A message was then sent to the Gov ernor and Council, stating a quorum of members ot the House was present, ready to be qualified. Great excitement prevailed during Hale's remarks and uproarious applause followed. After the notification tot the Governor that aXquorum was present, the announcement was received with wild applause from the outside. Gov.

There were; scenes in the House never before witnessed in IJew England. The supreme moment came when the assistant clerk refused, to put the motion to adjourn, and Mr. Ifale, standing upon the desk, Snt the motion himself, following by eafening applause and the immediate withdrawal of the Republican members.

The -whole audience rose and there followed a tremendous storm of applause. The audience appeared to be largely on the Bide of the -Republicans.

Tilden said he would be President if the Democrats in Congress had not humbly given him away. Tae Congress Democrats retort that his cowardice did it. i They talk as if Tilden Bhould have mounted his war horse, made himself terrible with cocked hat, plume, sword, brass buttons, boots, spursa foot long, and rode and hewn his way into the White House, and that because he did not play up this, they had no leader and could 'dp nothing.

Not one of the perpetrators of the massacre has been surrendered. The delivery of any of them was contemptuously refused; and the agent who did the talking was told to take them if he wanted them. As the savages outnumbered the force at his command at that juncture, he did not attempt to take them, and so saved h'g scalp.i Under these circumstances ir the proposed palaver with 'Indians not i connected with the massacre, nor with its perpetrators, can only be character-ized as puerile.
