Troops at Elections.

~
By the 95th section of the Act of Assembly
of the State of Pennsylvania of I'd July, 1889,
it is enacted that
mo body of troops in the army Of the
United States, or Of this Commonwealth,
shall be present, either armed or un-
armed, at any place Of Election within
this Commonwealth, during the time of
such Election"
In order that no excuse for want of time
may be alleged, we now thus early in advance
call on Governor CURTIN that he sees to the
execution of this law in letter and spirit, at the
October elections We demand, in the name
of Democracy and State already outraged
and insulted by denial of our State authori-
ty and suppression Of its dignity, the rigid
execution of this law. All troops must be
absent from place of elections in this State on
the 18th of October next, or the Democracy
will see if the Governor dare not, that the
laws of our Commonwealth arc not trampled
down at Federal behest. 1t had better be un-
derstood thus early in the day that the farce
of the Kentucky election cannot be repeated
in Pennsylvania--that we are determined to
have free, fur and honest election according
to he fa,ps of our own Sfafe-and is the Fed
eral satrap who now rules this Province Of the
National Government fails to do his duty in
the matter, an outraged people will supply the
remedy ,- -11-

ONO LEGISLATURE E-This body ad-
journed sine die Tuesdsy morning,
and those composing it have return
ed to their respective homes. In
regard to the amount Of work done,
and Importance Of measures pcrfec-
ted, it VIII compare favorably with
any Legislature that has convened
under the present constitution; and
both the llbors and responsibilities
Of the body were much added to by
the anomalous condition in which the
country has been during the entire
period for which the members were
elected. Among those WHO were es-
peciallv faithful to their trust and
discharged their official duties in a
manner emitting them to the thanks
Of their constituents, it affords Us
pleasure to name our Senator and
Representative.
Prominent among tho commenda.
ble acts referred to may be named
the reelection to the United States
Senate of that true and faithful pat,
riot and statesman, Hon, 3. F. WADE,
and the acts providing for taking
the vote of Ohio soldiers in the field,
for organizing the militia Of the
State, and making provision for the
support Of the dependent families OF
volunteers.

fcers of the two Houses were pass.
