WASHINGTON. July 10.--Chairrnan Bel
den, of the Republican congressional com
mittee, has issued the following address to
the editors OF the Republican papers of the
United States:
"SIR-The Republican party In its sew
eral national platforms have pledged the
country that as one Of its fundamental
planks it would see TO the execution of
that provision of the constitution which
guarantees to every lawful voter in federal
elections his right TO deposit his ballot and
have it counted for the candidate OF his
choice. That pledge, based on justice, In
wolves merely the exercise Of an unques-
tionable constitutional right Of every
American citizen.
Nevertheless the gravest election abuses
in large section Of our country have de-
prived vast masses Of their lawful fran
chise, have by fraudulent agencies imposed
an unlawful representation in the national
house Of representatives, and have thus
practically subverted the constitution in
some of its most important and valuable
provisions. The strict enforcement Of this
inaliennble right is demanded as a solemn
duty
mo question of negro supremacy, no
usurpation of federal power is involved in
the issue. The national elections bill
which recently passed the house deals only
with national elections, It does not med
die, directly or indirectly, with state cleo
tions. state officers or state organizations.
The states are very properly left to work
out their own destiny through their own
agencies Why, then, should the bill not
become a law2 As declared by the Hon
William Mckinley in his recent speech in
the house, "rhe passage OF the federal cleo
tion bill is the supreme duty of the hour. =
