The daily Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1873-1877, 1875-01-22

We have rec' ived copy of the joint res.
olution introduced in the house by Hon.
John B. Hawley, declaring the views
of congress and the duty of the general
government toward the state government
Of Louisiana. The resolution is brief but
to the point, and takes the ground that
the Kellogg government must be sustain
ed by congratulated Republic.
Yes, it takes that ground-but why is
the Republic so shy of its opinion as to the
Justice of Mr.. Hawley's resolu ton When
all the world knows that Kellogg never
was elected; when Republicans as well as
Democrats universally denounce federal
interference with state legislature; when
immense mass meetings are being held all
over the United States, regardless of party,
to denounce' and condemn and protest
against Sheridan's outrage; when Mr..
Grant. in message to congress. denounces
the pretended election of Kellogg as "gi-
gantic fraud" and does not even ask con-
gress to sustain that government, then,
under this state of things, Mr.. John B.
Hawley introduces resolution to sustain
this" gigantic fraud" Treachery to repub.
hean principles can no further 20. Mr..
Hawley has managed to render his name
infamous. Even his post master newspa.
pers dare not indorse his infamous resolu.
