government. 1t should be recorded
as hardly less valuable or less sa-
cred than the provision of the con-
stitution itself There are many
other important statutes containing
provisions that are liable TO be sus-
pended or annulled at times and
places of holding elections, if the
bill before me should become law.
| do not undertake TO furnish a list
of them. Many of them, perhaps
most of them, have been ses forth in
debates on this measure. They re.
late 30 extrsdition, TO crimes
against election laws, TO quarantine
regulations, to neutrality. TO Indian
reservations, to civil rights of citi-
zens, and to other subjects. In re.
gard to them all it may be safely
said that the meaning and effect of
this bill is TO take from the general
government an important part of
its power to enforce the laws. An
other grave objection to the bill is
its discrimination IN favor of state
and against national authority. The
presence or employment of the army
or navy of the United States is law.
ful under the terms of this bill at
the place where an election is being
held in the state to uphold the au
thority of a state government, then
aud there in need of such military
intervention, but unlawful to uphold
the authority OF the government of
the United States, then and there in
need of such military Intervention.
Under this bill the presence or en-
ployment of the army or nav of
the United States would be lawful
and might be necessary to maintain
the conduct of state election
against the same local violence that
would overthrow it but would be
unlawful to maintain the conduct of
national election against the same
local violence that would overthrow

HOW 1T WORKS..
The Shippers Who Are Hanging on
to the Rugged Edge of the
Freight Cut

"No change'' was the report ON the
situation of the freight war yesterday.
General Freight Agent Lowell, of the
B. 81 NJ, said, however, that he did not
think it would last much longer
Inquiry shows that the stock men,
who run down tLeir cattle to the roads
as fast as possible when they got news
Of the ''cut,n are finding that the thing
regulates itself, and the shipments of
stock have tapered down to a compare
lively fine point, 81 many head having
been rushed into market that it is gllt-
ted, and buyers can command their
own prices.
The merchants out west, especially
those at Kearney, have taken hold of
the ''cut" at a lively rate, but cannot
run off all the goods in Omaha, even if
it costs next to nothing to transport
them.
Handlers OF grain are reaping the
most advantage, at present, Of the war.
They We're unable at the outset to get
any grain into condition for market,
but are now moving a large volume to
Omaha and the east.-Onaha Herald.
