Alb, in -foil \N 1 1), THE STEPS IN THE CONSPIRACY We ropy the following from the Argm licau leaders with a view to disfranchise, for the second time in the history of our republic, the majority of the electors of these United States and (o usurp the Pre- sidency. Thill these sleps were taken with that purpose is perfcclly plain to even- reading and intelligent man. nol only from the reasoning of the Argus, but from the that party throughout the country. In the face of well verified returns and known results, many of which I bey suppressed and more of which they falsified, they per- sisted in claims they knew to be unfound- ed and fraudulent ; misinformed their readers that they might stir up their spir- its to any requisite pitch of fanaticism and violence necessary to complete the revo- lution (for it would amount to than, the forcible seizure of the government and the political slavery of a large majority of their fellow-citizens.- and that, majority consist- ing of the most intelligent and honest and patriotic people in the world, and largely composed of men who have always, hith- erto, acted wiih them, but were too honest and their own consciences to the cupidity and malevolent domination of a self con- victed corruplioniHt, a wily demagoge and known falsifier. That the contemplated due, under th(> overfilling power of a be- nign Providence, to the enlightened pa- triotism and integrity of the Democratic party and largely to the incorruptible hon- esty of Republicans, themselves, who could not consent to see the destiny of the d&nt.ry committed to the hands of a truc- ulent or selfish speculator, or made the subject of bargain and sale: The \address\ of the Republican na- tional committee is a further step iu the \ Blainc efforts to lay a foundation for the stealing of New York State. Step first was taken in the Jay Gould Blaine Tribune and in the Jay Gould Wes- tern Union dispatches, Tuesday night. Those dispatches began fairly enough .giv- ing figures just as they came. They showed steady Democratic guins in the rural districts. Then such words as these commenced to crop out: \If the remain- ing districts conform to the Gartleld vote, Blame's plurality will be so and so in the State.\ At that, time districts were per- sistently not \conforming to the Gartleld vote.\ To door attempt that, delay wax necessary. Suddenly, returns ceased com- ing until the nest day. Twelve hundred odd districts had been heard from. Seven hundred odd more remained to be heard from. Why were the sources of informa- tion thus suddenly cut off? The order to \conform to the Oartield vote\ was understood. So the returns were held back. Across that scheme the vigilance of the Democratic state and national committees projected an order to each county's Dem- ocratic leaders: \ Bend on the returns to us at once ; see that no figures are tam- pered with ; see that a true statement and an honest local count is made.\ By that means the figures were received before the | plotted alterations in them could be made. Knowledge of the election of Cleveland ; was obtained. [ But the next morning, when every other paper, of all shades of opinion, as good as conceded the election of Cleveland, the Jay Gould Blaiue Tribune cast a doubt—a prearranged doubt—on the eledlon, and diapatchca appeared, \that the I in the interests ofltepubli ior and public order, not to fall in with plot, to count Illaine in by fraud.Those rns were issued when the papers them- es possessed and suppressed the figures ch refuted tho very claim put forth that Blaine wag elected.\ That was tin- further step in the con- pi nicy. Thurnday morning, the Jay Gould Name-Tribune, again stood alone among he metropolitan dailies as the exclusive ecipient of facts which did not exist. Every other New York morning paper- natter what its politics—admitted that 'eland had carried New York, even Sun which hates him. But. the Jay Id Blame-Tribune \claimed\ New k. It announced \several other States loubt and Halite to remain so several i.\ How did it know that? Of course, ild it.

With a popular majority of not less than 79,000 votes against Blaine, or rather over Blaino in favor of Governor Cleveland, with the addition of over 100,000 votes cast for St. John and for Butler (we do not know how many, but certainly against Blaine), it is a most flagrant revolutionary assumption to attempt by trick, and by false reports, and by incendiary appeals to passion and pre- judice to excite opposition to the declared decision of the bailot box. It may ilsobe remarked here, that a very largo part of the Republican vote (if we reckon one voter to seven of population—one to five and even less is often found in white popula- tion,—it will amount, to 1,000,000 or over), in the Southern States, is by the colored people, but lately released from physical slavery, though still bound by the adaman- tine chain of prejudice and ignorance, in mental slavery to that party. It might be expected that the infamous sheets that first gloatingly gave currency to, and polluted the senses of their readers with the foul scandals against Cleveland would not hesitate, but rather exultant- y hasten to deceive, to feed with false iope, and strive to excite to frenzy their tense of disappointment and defeat. With- >ul character and oblivious to any patrio- ic sentiment, like the \ Free Companions\ )f medieval Europe, their services arc at thchireof any bargaineror would-be despot, without regard to country or creed, equal- ly ready to engage their aid to the traitor us the true man,and in either case swift to maraud and make prey of the merchant at the exchange, the peasant, at. the fire- side, or the suppliant at the altar. Foul with inward rottenness, to defame an op- ponent they would willingly debauch the prurient minds of all whom they can illure to read their filthy columns. But that leading men of a large and con- trolling party, claiming for itself the dis- tinction of having \saved the Union\ 'however wanting in exact truth, it is ccr- ,ain it very nearly destroyed it) should he wrath of over-confident people under ,he lash of unexpected defeat, and put to hazard the peace as well'as the business ests of the country, we admit is a rise, and merits, as it meets, the most.

Although every return as made it on the votes as cast refuted this , it -v ed c is,therefore,no ground for doubt st vote of the State has been The next, step was the \address\ of the Republican national committee issued to- day. That address is a tissue of lies, bal- derdash and insult. The \claim of every northern State,\ except New Jersey and Connecticut,is renewed—when New York and Indiana are known to be Democratic, and Illinois was showing almost, a certainty of being Democratic. \The strong proba- bility of Went Virginia and other southern States,\ is repeated in the face of knowl- rlge to the contrary. Baseless accusa- oiiB against Democrats follow and then ecurs thiB: \The that the he given to the Republican candidates, and though tJu: defeated candidate for t/ie presi- dency is at the head of the election m-ac/iinery in thin State,, the Democratic party, which has notoriously been the party, of fraud in elections for years,will not be permitted to overthrow the will of the people.\ The effort to cast opprobium on Presi- dent-elect Cleveland is obvious. Of the the decency of it, welet our readers judge tor themselves. As a fact the governor of New York has nothing more to do with \the election machinery of this 8tate\than James G. Blaine has.

Of the insults to the Democratic party, otice need be ught of Jay Gould are the rds of Elkins,and God grant that the Democratic party may never be or do anything to de- serve the praise of such men. Of such men may its maligners always be! Our readers should study the steps to be taken as well as those already taken, in this conspircy to reverse the verdict of sixty millions of people—so that Blaine, as a fraudulent president, may keep the thieves in office and make Jay Gould In this government \tho power behind the throne greater than the throne itself. The people of the United States will, in due time and in timo not distant, grind to powder this Blaine-Gould conspiracy—but its successive steps aro interesting exhibi- tions of the desperation and devices of beaten scoundrels.

We copy from the Sim, which is] in no way a willing witness in favor of j Cleveland. The town of New Lots is in [ Kings county: j The statement by Chairman B. P. Jours '; of the Republican national committee that \ there were 1,000 colonized votes in the i town of New Lots, ami that over 700 more ; votes were polled in the same town than ; were registered, is causing much indigna- \ lion among the New Lots Republican dec- ' lion officers.-\'Supervisor Jewell, a prom- ; inent Republican of New Lots, said to a j reporter of the Su?i yesterday : \The statement of Chairman Jones is simply preposterous. I do not believe fact, I do not. know of one, nor do I know anybody else, except. Chairman Jones, who says that, there was one. Instead of there uiMn£r /00 more votes cjist tndn wci*c rotr- istemi, there were just 177 more register- ed than were cast, and many voters neith- er registered nor voted. Such statements as that of Chairman Jones ure most inju- dicious and unjust. They tend to create public uneasiness and distrust, and are a reflection upon communities which never should be made without at least some basis of fact. I am a Republican, and a strong one, and I am not likely to be speaking from pro-Democratic prejudice when I Iflfactory election in New Lots since I have lived here.\ L. Biederman is the town clerk and is a defeated candidate for re-election on the Republican ticket. \ The statement of Chairman Jones is bosh,\ he said. \ I am perfectly satisfied with the election, and I am a defeated Re- publican candidate. The vote on the elec- toral ticket is canvassed by the inspectors of election and the result sent to the coun- POOB Tray suffered for being found In bad company. It may well be expected, it la certainly no cause of complaint, that individual politicians should feel incon- venience for the same cause. We have heard it urged as an offence that DenuH cratfl took measures to Insure a fair count of votes ; that it implied a distrust of their neighbors and friends. Such men should remember that they are members, zealous and active memberB of a party that stole, with fraud and force, the presidency, and no Democrat has over heard one of the party now acting with it utter a word of protest against that act of usurpation. We should be traitorouB to our own liberties if wo did not distrust them and take every possible step to guard against their ma- chinations. Besides, they took for their leader and standard-bearer one who wa self-convicted of most dishonorable politi cal practices. Such a leader, re'eeivin, their enthusiastic support, could not place them in a position to command—far less to demand the confidence of honest oppo- nents. Poor Tray has our pity—but he (fliould have sought better company. A BOLD SCHEME EXPOSED. A # Despicable Trick Resorted to by \Republicans. Letters Addressed to Democratic Voters in the Twenty- third Assembly District Thrown Into Ash Barrels by Partisan Mail Carriers—Affidavits of Witnesses Proving that the Deed was Done Deliberately. The desperate straits to which the Re- is shown in the despicable tricks resorted to by them, one of which lias just come to light in the Twenty-third District, in this city, where the officials of the Post-Office have used their influence to prevent a fair expression of the voters on Tuesday next. After the registry hud been completed in that district, the County Democracy of the district obtained complete lists in advance of their publication in the City Record and mailed to every voter through Htation L. ballots for the Aldermanic candidate, Mr. Ferrigan; the candidate for the Assembly, j Mr Grayblll ; for Mr. Marline, the candi- ! date for District-Attorney, and the Clcve- | land and Ile.ndricks electoral ticket. These were inclosed in a blue envelope, They were sent out. from the headquarters of the CountyjDemocracy, No. 2114 Third avenue, through Htation L. Very few of these have reached the parties to whom they were addressed. The chief of Station L, a strong Blaine partisan, is alleged to have issued orders to his car- riers to destroy or misdeiiver all of these envelopes, easily distinguishable by their color. The following is a copy of an affidavit the original of which is on file in The World office. It is only one of many Unit have been obtained, and hundreds of these envelopes have been secured, wbich are unopened, and which have the stamp candled, showing that they have passed regularly through the office: City and County of New York, ss.: Personally appeared before me.

Brief sketches, entitled \ Recollections of a Private,\ papers chronicling special events, descriptions of various auxiliary branches of the service, etc., will supplement the more important series by the various generals. A strict regard for accuracy will guide the preparation of the illustrations, for which THE CENTURY has at its disposal a very large quantity of photographs, draw- ings, portraits, maps plans, etc., hitherto unused. The aim is to present in this se- ies, not official reports, but commanding officers' accounts of their plans and opera- tions,—interesting personal experiences which will record leading events of the war, and possess at the same time a his- torical value not easily to be calculated. In this line THE CEXTUKT will maintain its prestige, and furnish the best stories by American writers that can be procured.

I venture to say I could furnish you the names of 500 voters in Now Lots who neither registered nor voted. It is the rankest nonsense to talk about colonizing 1,000 voters out. here, or 500, or SO. It is not like the city; nearly sverybody knows nearly everybody alse, and one can tell a str t a glance. g ga As a defeated Republican candidate I perfectly satisfied that the election was fair and square.\ Nicholas Halley, the defeated Republi- can candidate for Commissioner of High- ways, said; \I do not know of an instance of coloni- zation, and I went about and made care- ful inquiry both before and after eleetion. It was a perfectly straight and fair election in every respect, and it is a defeated Re- publican candidate who is talking to you.\ A Pleasant Problem. (From the Boston Transcript.) To treat the bouth as the unchangeable, inveterate enemy of the country and of hunranity, and to inflame popular ignor- ance for a political point in a campaign, is to strike an unfeeling and unpatriotic blow at the delicate and difficult beginning of a better understanding between tho two races. The best minds of the country are now at work on the problem of discover- ing how two; races that are no more, and in fact, mutually repugnant HKRMAN HHMIT/...

More Republican Party Trickery. To the Editor of tht. World: I have during the past eight or ten days mailed several thousand copies of The Voice, & Prohibition party paper published in this city by Funk & Wagualls. Inside of Gftcli paper wfis folded &n envelope con- taioing the following printed matter on the outside: : Imnori ant Circular : : From THOMAS W. OR^AN, : Hnriem. : .: New York City.: Eacli envelope contained eight to ten electoral ballots. Information reaches me from different parts of the State that these packages have been tampered with in tran- sit. Reliable Prohibitionists have received packages from which the correct ballots [ had been removed, nnd instead thereof' were fraudulent ballots. The fraudulent ballot is said to have on it only the first two Prohibition party electors, and all other names thereon aro the Republican party electors. Those ballots were shown Gov. St. John at Elmira, and through him I received a telegraph communication con- cerning this last infamous device fo: \casting an anchor to the windward\ for Blaino. If the Republicans win next Tuesday, the next question for the con- sideration of all honest citizens will be, Can the rascals be turned out? TUOMAH W. OKOAN.
