lie held that United States law appoint
lug and regulating the action OF the super
ysors at an election for representatives in
Congress are in full force. and binding
upon all State and city officials, no matter
whether such election BE held under State
laws or not; that a supervisor, in dis
charging his duties under those laws, can
not be interferred with by any State or
city officer, and that il the supervisor should
be so arrested while in the performance, as
