New York Wsrld well says Of il:
EVERY Senator who voted for the
detestable bills is, sworn to support
the Constitution OF which it Is an
open confessed reputation. The
bill if it passes The other House,
(Which it willy is nothing less than an
act tor the establishment Of despO-

United States, and taking from The
people the protection Of af:ee Constr
tution. 1t authorizes and justifies
arbitrary arrests at the will of the
Executive, in defiance Of explicit pro-
visions of the Constitution iorbidding
such arrests. it puts every man s
liberty and property out OF The pre-
lection of the fundamental law; it
annibilates the power OF the State
governments to protect their citizens
against Illegal violence; it tells the
President aud his minions that they

Mast cdious tyrants in the worst ages
