This was in 1868 that we are talking about. when the election was between General Grant and Governor Seymour of our State. That. was thetime when these great frauds were perpetrated. when the fortyseven thousand manufactured naturalization papers were to take effect on a particular day in the State of New York and in the State of Connecticut to determinethe election ofPresidentof the United States. That was the issue then. and where was the knowledge. and where the courage. and where the energy. and where the combining power of good citizens except as furnished from Supervisor Davenport who had been at -work on the matter. and then the Democratic party after that went on and on in increased injury. in increased violence. until the culmination of that partys supremacy in 1871. and the r& gime of Tweed was overthrown by the universal wish and voice and votes of the Republicans of the city of New York and of the Democrati who rallied for that purpose. But did all thefDemocrats rally to all these exposures of Tweed?
