THOSE DEPUTY MARsHALs.
4 Sample of the Sort They Had
i'm Philadelphia, at n Cost OF
5000, to Secure a "Fair
Vote" Last Fail.
Philadelphia Times.

Philadelphia Times.
Here in Philadell hia Is Il Republican
judiciary; a Republican mayor; a Re-
publican police of twelve hundred men;
a host of Republican officials welding
all the power OF the municipality; thou
sands pl Republican contractors, depen-
dents and CXpcCtantS 10 fight the battles
Oi the party; large majority of Repub-
llcan assessors To register the votes;
Republican tax office TO facilitate the
qualification of Republican electors, and
iOur-fiiths OF the election boards to ac-
cept or reject doubtful voters and TO COM
pute ami certify the returns, while the
minority purity Is pOwerlesS, save a.
fraud can escape the vigilance Of the
multitude OF Republican safeguards in a
few localities. To summon deputy mar
shals in this city for the protection Of
the majority party, even II done with
the utmost integrity, would have been
an unpardOnab!c abuse OF public trust;
but % prostitute the authority of the
Marshal by the selection OF nearly eight
hundred deputies, most oi them mere
partisan dependents, and Tery many ot
them SO disreputable that they would
not be allowed within sight OF a shop
mans till, was a violation Of the plain
letter and spirit OF the law and IT,
prOach 10 Philadelphia, that should not
only demand the repeal or modification
OF the statuSe, but that he should dis
miss Marshal kernS from his office in
the disgrace he has deliberately invited
upon himself.
Ii Marshal kerhs had been content

ground of Political necessity; but when

Strumcnt Of its own degradation. And
when il is considered that these hum
mcrs and criminals are empowered 10
interfere with the most sacred rights uf
citizens without process, Of law, or any
restraints beyond their own dishonest
ur brutal instincts. the outrage npon the
people Of this city is one that can
scarcely be portrayed in adequate terms.

THE NEGRO EXODUS.
An Appeal for Aid.

ST. LOUIS, April "A number OF
prominent colored gentlemen, who have
been most active in relieving while here
and assisting TO their destination, the
colored emigrants from the South, is
sued the following appeal for aid
To all Generous and Charitable People
Throughout Tie Country;
For three weeks there have been al
most daily landed at our wharf scores,
and sometimes hundreds, Of colOred re-
fugees from the South, fleeing from a
second slavery. Their accounts Of Op-
preston and inhuman treatment by
white leaguers and planters are terrible.
Their struggle to make their way
to the free West should re-
ceive the attention OF liberty-loving
men and women everywhere, and We
appeal to all such for means to assist
them in finding new homes. The color
ed people OF this city have not encour-
aged them. The transportation comPa-
MES have offered them no inducements
to emigratc, but accordingly to their
own testimony they have started tor
Kansas because they heard they would
be free there; and because it was impos-
siblc for them to live longer at their old
homes. These refugees at the best have
but slender means. \ large proportion
of them are destitute when they reach
here, having spent all their money for
passage to this point, and are thus de-
pendent upon others to reach their
destination. The colored people
OF this city are doing all in their power
to help them. so far they have fed
and sheltered them while here, and for
warded several hundred to Kansas, but
still they come, and We are now COM
PEELED to appeal to the generous and be-
ncvolent people everywhere TO aid us
in our work. We need both money
and clothing. 'In the name of God and
humanity we ask help for the refugees.
ANY contributions sent To the following
persons will be most thankfully re-
ccived and acknowledged: Rev. Moses
Dickson, l2ll Morgan street, Rev. John
Turner, 1912 Morgan street, Rev. ;. i.
Anderson, Eighth street Baptist Church,
Rev. VIM. H. Lawton, 1918 Christie

would do in regard to the bill, nobody
knew, for if there was anything the
President was celebrated for, it was for
keeping his own counsels. No man
could find out what he was going to do,
but this he did know that il the bill was
vetoed the country would find out in a
short time that if contraction had taken
place before il would be multiplied by
reason of the stopping of supplies, be-
cause money would continue to flow
into the treasury and none could be
paid out. -,
Mr.. Herbert said he was not surprised
that the gentlemen on the other side
had attempted to make this sectional
issue. They ran away from the point
Haunting red flag, hoping that the
Democratic party would follow like mad
bulls, but they would not do il, and
held To the question "Shall United
States troops be used at the polls?" He
reminded his Republican friends that
much rs they might regret it, the war
was over and secession dead.
Mr.. PhistCr spoke in favor OF the pro-
posed repeal. The Democrats were will
issue. The contest on one side would
b. for fair and free elections, on the
other for elections controlled by the
bayonet.
Mr.. Buckncr spoke in the same view,
and denied that it was revolutionary for
the Democrats 10 repeal the laws by the
same methods in which they had been
enacted. The change made by the gem
tlcman from Ohio Garfield that the
Democracy was about To re-enact the
scenes OF 1861, he characterized as a po.
litical claptrap. lie deprecated the at
tempt which the gentleman from Ohio
had made to coeTc the President into a
veto.
Mr.. White, oi Pennsylvania, denied
that his side oi the House was i'll favor
Of force at the polls. Ii only desired
that the citizen should be protected in
his right to east his ballot. He quoted
Abraham Lincoln as stating the neces-
sily occasionally OF United States troops
being present at the polls. The gentle.
man who had spoken Yesterday had
seen fit 10 charge the Republican party
with usurpation and despotism, and he
denied the parliamentary proprie,y OF the
gentleman indulging in such recrimin-
alton. IIepointcd with prideto the glori-
ousachievcmentso oithc Republican party
in the past, and concluded by saying
that he felt himself bound to resist in
every constitutional way the proposed
legislation.
The Committee rose and the House
adjourned.
