| tons and roll-calls, and again the bill to
prohibit the removal OF cases from the
| State to Federal courts went over. II Mr..
Frye, one Of the Radical leaders, had not
openly declared that his party VIII not per-
NIT this bill to pass the conduct Of bis po-
litical friends has shown that they mean
| to defeat it ut all hazards. And yet
Mr.. Frye admits that the present laws
| in regard 10 the Federal courts are
defective. Now, southern members desire
the passage OF this bill because it will pre-
vent the recurrence Of such cases as hare
recently made Judge Rives known all over
the country, and put stop to the removal
of criminal cases from Federal to State
courts. They say that rs the law now
stands Federal officer or leading Radi-
cal indicted in State court for crime,
it removed to a Federal court to
ensure his acquittal, because the United
States courts have no power to punish
offences against State laws. The western
people look at 1t from anothor standpoint.

| company or other corporation in q State
court they have their ease removed to the
Federal court on the ground that so great
is the prejudice Of the people against corpo-
rations that they cannot get justice in State
courts. The case once removed TOT Federal
court, they are able, by dIaJory proceedings.
to tire out a plaintiff, Or, by reason OF their
influence with the court, to get the adyan-
taee OF defendant. Mr.. Townshend and
other western members furthermore de-
clare that Frye g. Co. are not hostile to the
bill! because o. any interest III the negro,
companies doing large business in the
| West do not want the present system
changed. 1t works well for them, while 1t
operates badly for the people. Mr. Town
shend says he is certain that all the Demo
Gratis and Greenbackers vii! vote for the bill,
and be does not mean to yield even If the
Republicans continue their present course.
