[11] Поскольку мистер Горацио Сеймур отказался принять номинацию на пост губернатора, чтобы сменить губернатора Тилдена, мистер Хэнд, ведущий адвокат в Олбани, был убежден мистером Тилденом и его друзьями принять эту номинацию.

[12] «Согласно Конституции требовалось три копии сертификата голосования в Луизиане, одна из которых должна была быть отправлена президенту Сената по почте, другая доставлена ему лично, а третья передана окружному судье США — все это должно было быть выполнено в течение определенного количества дней. Когда республиканский курьер — некий Т. К. Андерсон — прибыл в Вашингтон и доставил пакет, содержащий один из этих трех сертификатов, мистеру Ферри, президенту Сената, тот обратил его внимание на нарушение в форме индоссамента на конверте и предложил ему рассмотреть его юридическую силу. Андерсон поэтому удержал пакет и тайно вскрыл его, чтобы выяснить, не была ли ошибка повторена в самом сертификате. К своему ужасу, он обнаружил гораздо более существенные дефекты в документе и, помчавшись обратно в Новый Орлеан, проконсультировался с партийными лидерами, которые согласились, что документ должен быть переписан, и выборщики были спешно собраны вновь. Затем, к ужасу руководителей, было обнаружено, что двое из необходимых должностных лиц отсутствуют, и с ними невозможно связаться в течение времени, ограниченного законом для доставки документа в Вашингтон. Поэтому «героические» меры были сочтены необходимыми, и после того, как были получены все доступные подписи, остальные были подделаны, и сфальсифицированные сертификаты, которые, конечно, были явно отличны от того, что был ранее отправлен по почте, были спешно отправлены обратно в Вашингтон как раз вовремя. Все эти факты были впоследствии раскрыты, но те, кто фактически совершил подделки, так и не были обнаружены». — H. R. R., № 140, 45-й Конгресс, 3-я сессия, стр. 50-63 и 89-91.

[13] Мистер Барлоу не переоценил здравый смысл американского народа, но он недооценил порочность республиканских лидеров в Вашингтоне, как он впоследствии обнаружил к своему огорчению.

[14] Вероятно, здесь имеется в виду Уильям Э. Чендлер из Нью-Гэмпшира.

[17] New York Sun, 21 сентября 1876 г.

[18] На дату этой заметки судья Апелляционного суда штата Нью-Йорк был номинирован и баллотировался на пост Президента.

[19] Копию протеста, упомянутого в предыдущем письме, см. в «Жизни Тилдена» Бигелоу, том II, Приложение А.

[20] Показания Кеннеди, упомянутые мистером Коттманом, следуют:

Вашингтон, 21 февраля. — Патрик Дж. Кеннеди из прихода Джефферсон дал сегодня показания о встрече с губернатором Уэллсом, на которой последний сказал, что считает, что поступил неправильно, выбросив 1100 голосов в Новом Орлеане и 1400 голосов в приходе Восточный Батон-Руж. Он также спросил, какую гарантию, по мнению Кеннеди, ему могли бы дать, если бы он организовал результаты так, чтобы защитить его и обеспечить ему собственность и положение среди народа штата Луизиана.

[21] Особая, если не исключительная ответственность судьи Брэдли за то, что он ввел в президентство мистера Хейза вместо кандидата, выбранного народом, более четко изложена в сообщении автора под названием «Верховный суд и Избирательная комиссия: открытое письмо достопочтенному Джозефу Х. Чоату», впервые опубликованном в New York Sun 19 июля 1903 года, а позже в брошюре издательства G. P. Putnam's Sons, Нью-Йорк.

[22] Это замечание было подтверждено мне очень компетентным авторитетом. В июне 1877 года мистер Джеймс Г. Блейн был одним из инспекторов Военной академии США в Вест-Пойнте. Он провел вторую половину дня со мной в моей резиденции в непосредственной близости, и действия Избирательного трибунала, среди прочего, естественно стали темой разговора. Он сказал с некоторым акцентом: «Я был удивлен в то время, что демократы согласились на Избирательный трибунал», и добавил в сущности — я не могу претендовать на то, чтобы вспомнить его точные слова, — что если бы они оставались твердыми, это не могло бы увенчаться успехом.

[23] Как я позже узнал из уст самого мистера О'Конора, это была его неизменная практика. Он никогда не просил оплаты за свои профессиональные услуги, пока не заслужил ее.

[24] Курсив принадлежит редактору.

[25] Дочь С. Ф. Б. Морзе, которому приписывают создание первой телеграфной линии связи в Америке.

[26] Это был ответ на записку от 9 сентября 1881 года от мистера Перселла, редактора Rochester Union and Advertiser, в которой говорилось, что он был «упомянут» в качестве кандидата на пост государственного секретаря, и с пожеланием узнать, будет ли номинация неприятна ему и будет ли она им отвергнута: в этом случае он предпочел бы не считаться кандидатом.

[27] См. «Публичные сочинения и речи Тилдена», том I, стр. 348.

[28] Мистер Тилден знал, что я написал его биографию, о которой здесь идет речь и которая впервые появилась в Louisville Courier-Journal во время кампании 1876 года.

[29] Нынешний председатель Верховного суда Соединенных Штатов; назначен в апреле 1888 года.

[30] Это означало бы скорее конец карьеры Сэмюэля Рэндалла как агента протекционистов в Конгрессе. — Редактор.

[31] Личный секретарь мистера Тилдена и, для интимной переписки, его синоним.

[32] Это черновик письма, несомненно исходящего от мистера Тилдена, так как он написан почерком одного из его секретарей.

[33] Не зная ничего об этой переписке, мистер Тилден однажды спросил меня, пока она, как оказалось, продолжалась: «как бы мне подошла должность министра финансов, или, скорее, как бы она мне понравилась». Я ответил очень быстро, что она мне совсем не понравится, и я не приму ее ни при каких мыслимых условиях; что я принципиально против принятия любой должности, частной или государственной, которую, как я не верю, я мог бы заполнить достойно, и что я не чувствую себя компетентным заполнить эту должность достойно; и я бы не взял ее, если бы чувствовал, ибо ее обязанности были бы от начала до конца абсолютно несовместимы со мной.

[34] Поскольку мистер Нойс был одним из видных республиканских эмиссаров из Вашингтона, подкупавших голоса избирателей на Юге в 1876 году, мистер Тилден рассматривал его назначение мистером Кливлендом на любую государственную должность не только как личное оскорбление для себя, но и как возмущение для страны.

[35] Of this amount, 5,147,660 tons is the tonnage for twelve months of the N. Y. P. & O. R. R. Co., leased by the Erie.

[36] Первоначально напечатано в New York Sun от 4 марта 1886 года.

[37] Выходя с заседания кабинета министров за день или два до даты этого письма, мистер Мэннинг испытал разрыв кровеносного сосуда в основании мозга, от которого он так и не оправился полностью.

[38] Мистер Хастед, тогдашний республиканский лидер в Ассамблее в Олбани, отвечал за некоторые резолюции, призывающие членов Нью-Йорка в Конгрессе продвигать политику мистера Тилдена по укреплению нашей береговой обороны. Документ, который непосредственно следует за этим письмом, под названием «Береговая оборона», является вкладом, который мистер Тилден сделал мистеру Мэннингу с целью включения его в годовой отчет.
