The Warrensburg Journal has lust

The Warrensburg Journal has Just
come into the possession of facts the
most astounding, daring and reckless
petrated in an election. The radical
leaders are desperate. They know that
with fair election Tilden will be the
next president, democratic congress
and senate to back him, and to therefore
defeat this-the will of the peoples
determined upon, and money, fraud,
perjury and every system and species
of rascality that devils and human in
genuity can devise will be resorted to.
The radical leaders have men now en-
gagged in taking a list OF all voters in
every county town and school district in
the United States. These reports when
completed are to be sent to the chairman
of each state central committee. and
there to be compiled and rearranged
and sent to Zach Chandler, chairman OF
/ the republican national committee. and
the general orders from the Grant head
quarters will be issued to transfer white
and black voters from states, counties
and districts to where they will do the
most good. In this way Kentucky,
Missouri and Arkansas are to furnish
voters enough to carry Indiana, Ohio
and Illinois. Cass and Lafayette coun-
ties are to furnish negro votes to carry
at least one of the representative districts
in johnson county. One or two of the
congressional districts of this state are
to be carried in the same way Negroes
are to be concealed IN the cabins and
haunts of their friends. We hope that
| the state and national as well as local
committees will take prompt and de.
cisive action to defeat this nefarious
scheme to defraud the people Of theil
dearest rights.

marines-all OF whom are alike bound
to obey you. The fact that they are
organized as military bodies whether of
state or of the United States, under The
immediate command of their own otfi-
GERS, does not in any wise affect their
legal character They are still the
posse comifdtuS.
AS need hardly state, there can be
no state official in this country who has
Jurisdiction to oppose you in discharsins
your official duties under laws OF the
United States. If such interference
shall take place you are to disregard 1t
entirely. The laws of the United States
are supreme, and so, consequently, is
the action of officials in the United
States in enforcing them. There is, as
virtually you have already been told, no
officer of state whom you may not, by
summons, embody into your posse, and
any state posse already embodied by a
sheriff will, with such sheriff, be obliged,
upon your summons, to become part OF
Il United States posse and obey you or
your deputy, acting UirtMte cDtctd.

there isa chance of future violation of
law. Ore discourages ''a frequent or
ready resort to military law" as hostile
"to the nature of our government and
the disposition of our people" The
other urges them on any pretense, fear
or hope, to at once assume the role OF
communicative chief of all United States
forces, citizens, state authorities and
militia at land. The opinion of Mr..
Cushing. quoted by both Evarts and
Taft authorizes only the employment
of troops as Il part of posse cOmttatus
| when process has been resisted, and
not at all when there is 4 mere appre-
hension That it may or might be resisted.
| There is nothing in that opinion or in
any reasonable construction of any law
to justify single position taken by MIR.
Taft. Ir his whole order there is no
single mark of the conscientious jurist,
or impartial official, but on the contra
ry; mucl of those qualities Of subservi-
ence to power, and disregard OF COM
mon law and common right, which
have rendered the name of Jeffries the
scorn of the world.
