members of Congress were to be elected.
That was all. Has any man in the
United States the hardihood to deny that
this is right? Is there any Senator, who
voted against the Federal election law,
who has right to be heard with an apol-
ogy that the Federal election law would
have secured to some citizen of the
United States the exercise of the elective
franchise which is now denied to him?
But the chief significance of all this is
the admission of the Southern represent
atives that. the negro is deprived of the
right to vote, and that admission at once
puts the Government of the United
States upon inquiry, and if the
inquiry results in establishing the
fact that any citizen of the United States
is habitually and persistentIy deprived of
his right to exercise the elective fran
chise, then it is the duty of the nation to
pass such laws, and to see to their en-
forcement, as will secure to every citizen
his due participation in the elections of
the country. This is the whole story of a
distributive sovereignty. 1t is the very
basis of Republican liberty. 1t is the es-
sence OF the issues growing out of the
war, and the abandonment of the doc
trine that the Government of the United
States shall protect the negroes of the
&1,ni,. 10 L.
ment of all that was contended for by
waging war against secession, and all
that was won by the victories on it's battle
fields.
The men who voted against the Federal
supervision of elections are not Repub-
Hcans and never were. No man imbued
with the great doctrine Of equal rights
among men could for q moment hesitate
when the question was raised as to which
side he would take. The defeat of In
gals in the State of Kansas means that
the Republican party has ruined itself by
too close an adherence to the one idea of
high protection. The manufacturing in
terests of the country are to blame for
this. The Mckinley bill was passed in
obedience to the high protection senti-
ment Of the country. The passage Of that
outrageous measure secured at once, not
the triumph Of the Democratic party, but
the reputation by the country Of the Re-
publican party. Repubicanism had
staked all on the single die of high pro-
lection, had abandoned all the broad
patriotic traditions which had attached to
it. 1t had fallen under the leadership of
narrow-minded men, men saturated with
New England sectionalism. The I'M
protected interests of the country which
the Mckinley bill sought to rob arose in
rebellion, and the most typical signifi-
canoe of that result is found in the defeat
of Ingalls,. Republican leaders are now
found who say that the tariff is no longer
an issue. The questions of finance are
now to be the great issues on which party
allignments are to be made. And Re-
publican Senate coolly and deliberately
refuses to enforce the great doctrines of
the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and FIT
teerlth Amendments, and thus the legal
contention of the rebellion, defeated on
the battlefield, triumphs in the forum.

Mr.. WILSON'S bill to make railway
corporations responsible in damages for
injuries to employees due to the act or
neglect of fellow employees, proposes to
reverse wise and ancient rule of law
1t proposes to cut off rule that man

be founded in pure justice. We doubt if
modern legislation can improve upon
such rules of law as this, and which are

HOW THEY WOULD HAVE VOTED.

1t is sometimes very convenient in a
more complete understanding of past is
sues to speculate as to how men, whose
lives have become identified with the
history of the country, would have voted
upon the questions at issue. Had Jeffer-
son Davis been member of the Senate
when the vote was taken on the Federal
election bill, the defeat of which is now
supposed to be irrevocable, he would
have voted against that measure. If Lin
coin had been member he would have
voted for it. If Toombs, who proposed
eventually to call the roll of his slaves at
the foot of the Bunker Hill monument,
had been member, he would have voted
against it. If Charles Sumner had been
member, he would have voted for it.
If Grant, Sheridan and Thomas had been
on the floor Of the Senate, they would
have voted for the measure, while Lee,
Beauregard, Johnston and Bragg, edu-
Gated at the country's expense, and who
Ueoaihc iiliilldiy ieaueIS VI INC TeDelllOn
against its authority, would have voted
against it. In short, every element OF
this nation, which from the first has con-
tended for that species of State sover-
eighty which would give a State that
right of local legislation inimical to ma
tional welfare, would have voted against
the bill, while the sentiment which has
made and preserved this country free
and great would have voted for it. The
present grows out of the past. 1t is its
legitimate successor. Historical inter
probation is luminous aid to the COM
prehension of the true inwardness of is
sues.

GOVERNOR MARKHAM'S first message
of advice to the Legislature has the right
ring. He calls attention to the fact that
under our present system there is no
check. upon commissions or officials in
their demands upon the State Printing
Office. They send to the Superintendent
reports to be printed, regardless of the
cost to the State. In six cases out of ten
these reports could be better expressed,
and would be of infinitely greater value
to the people, if half the printed space
only were occupied. One report before
US covers nearly 1000 closely printed
pages, exclusive of a great many maps
and diagrams. In other cases ,the i'm
preston made is that the officials have
striyen to pad" their reports, have
cralnmed them with all possible mat
ter they could master, in order, APP
parenfly, to magnify the Importance
of the office or commission. It is
known that officials have had
work done in the State Printing Office
and have sold it for their personal bene-
fit. The Governor believes that nearly
one-half the present cost of printing
official reports and matter for use in
public offices can be saved, and thinks
the saving will amount to from SIG, 900 to
ST, 600. But it cannot be done without a
law which will relieve the Superintend-
ent of Printing from the obligation to do
whatever printing job an official brings
him, that any way relates to the official's
department. The Governor suggests that
acquisitions for printing shall be first

submitted, and that such authority shall
have the power to refuse print to matter
that may be believed to be surplusage
and pad" and to refuse to grant per-
mission to have job work done that is
not necessary. The suggestion is wise
one. Carrying 1t out will entail upon
some officer great deal of labor, and
will impose upon him great response
bility-of an unpleasant character very
often. But it is probable that authority
with the necessary backbone can be
found. The very fact of such law being
enacted will, in itself, operate to the end
desired. The suggestion should there
fore take the form of law at an early day.
THAT is a brilliant scheme proposed to
the Legislature to have all insurable
property assessed, and upon that assess
ment a tax collected. From the fund so
provided there is to be paid all losses by
fire among such insurable property. 1t
is scheme to cheaper insurance, and it
would do it with a vengeance, but it
would also make arson the fashion. 1t
would put the State into the insurance
business, and bring US y step nearer to
the ideal of Mr.. Ballamy. 1t would be
paternalism of the radical type. The
fewer ventures the State makes in BUSH
ness the better for the people. We are
governed too much already in some di-
rections, not at all in others, and not hall
enough in some. But State insurance is
a scheme of mutual protection that is I'M
wise. The mutual principle is sound
enough, but leave it to individuals to
carry it into practice. 1t is not within
the function of the State to engage in it.

A DESPERATE ROBBER.
HE ATTEMPTS TO MURDER Mr..
r. L. FLOYD.
A Citizen Attacked Early in the Evening
in Front of His Own House-No Arrest
Made.

"Don't you open your mouth or | will
shoot" hissed man in an undertone
as he laid his hand on the shoulder OF
F. L. Floyd at 7 AS last evening in front
of his house at 1876 Sichel street. Mr..
Floyd keeps the grocery store at the cor
ner Of Griffin and Downey avenue, and
was on his way home when an unknown
man came up from behind and shot Mr..
Floyd in the face. The story OF the au-
dacity and daring of the would be rob-
ber was told the HERALD reporter by
Mr.. Floyd as he lay on couch in the
Office of.Dr. Clark at 913 Downey ave-
nue., while the doctor was dressing the
wound.
II was going home at the usual hour, =
said Mr.. Floyd. II heard a.party walk
ing behind and thought it was boy,
judging by tho way he whistled. All Of
sudden he laid his hand on my shoul-
der and in low voice told
me not to say word or he would shoot.
l at once dropped the books and cash
box and shouted out. / also grabbed
for my pistol at the same time. Before
/ could do anything my aggressor shot
me while not more than three feet dis
tant. / blazed away at him and fred
four shots in succession as he dashed
into the darkness Il Iwas quite cool and
l think that at least one of the shots
must have taken effect"
The reports of the shots raised a COM
motion in the neighborhood, and a
crowd soon gathered around. 1t was
noticed that blood was gushing from a
wound in Mr.. Floyd's face, his overcoat
being covered with blood. The wounded
man was conveyed to the residence of
DR.. Clark, and the police were notified.
Mr.. Floyd could give no description of
the man who shot him. He came up
from behind, and Mr.. Floyd did not get
a view of his face. Several of the
mounted officers started out to look for
the unknown man, but the chances are
that he will never be captured unless
one OF the bullets hit him.
1t was clearly case of "hold up"
Mr.. Floyd has been in the habit Of car
rying his cash box and books from the
store to his residence at the corner of
Sigler and Sichel streets every evening.
The bold highwayman evidently knew
this AID no doubt laid in wait for the
groceryman last night. 1t was quite
dark at 7:45 last evening and every
thing favored the robber, as very few
people were on the streets, owing totheir
muddy condition, and if Floyd had not
shown fight his assailant would have
gotten away with the cash box, which
contained something over 500. Floyd's
wound is in the right jaw. Doctor Clark
had not located the bullet when inter-
viewed by the HERALD man. Floyd's
neck below the jaw was badly swollen.
Altogether it was one of the most des-
perate attempts at robbery of the many
that have come under the notice of the
police for some time, and Floyd was for
tunate in escaping with his life. He
did not suffer very much pain and told
the reporter that he expected to sell q
whole lot Of groceries before be died.

FATHER sAsIA,s LECTURE.
A Large Audience Enjoys the Effort.
Father Conlan Tonight.

Father Conlan Tonight.
In spite of the threatening aspect of
the weather there was large attend
ance. at the cathedral last night, when
Father Joseph Sasia, superintendent of
the Jesuit college Of St. Ignatius at San
Francisco, delivered a lecture for the
benefit OF the new church of the Sacred
Heart in East Los Angeles. Under the
title of A Visible Mirror of Gods In
visible Projections in the Church of
Christ, Father Sasia delighted his, audi
ence with highly instructive and deeply
interesting lecture for over an hour
on the subject Of the Catholic
church. Though acknowledgement
with illusions which marked the speaker
as remarkably close student, his lee
ture was noticeabiy free from pedantry;
and all who were fortunate enough to be
present were charmed by the eloquence
which fell from the lips of the learned
visitor. Lack of space, unfortunately,
fOrbids more extensive mention of the
lecture at this time.
This evening Father Conlan of San
Pablo will deliver lecture at the same
place on the subject of Faith and the
World in Opposition, to which there will
be no charge for admission; but those
who attend will be expected to. contrib.
ute something towards the fund now be-
ing raised for the benefit of the Sacred
Heart church, for which Father Hart
