of Arkansas contestant for a seat on the
floor of the houSe,-had justified the out
lawry by mob violence Of certain negroes
who had been elected to local offices on
the ground that they were not property
holders. Those people forgot that property
itself was vaiueless without labor
Now the bill proposed te follow the local
election systems; it would take the most
ingenious and complicated system that

Mr. Covert of New York. said that the
bill was an evidence OF distrust felt by re-
publicans of d government of and for the
people. Recently the speaker had attended
the banquet of the Americas Club at Pitts
burgh. He had spoken after long years of
silence, upon the falsifcation of election
returns. buldozing and all the narrowing
details of southern outrages.
