pETEsTAsLE PROVISIONS.
Tho Tendency Of Republican Methods to
(pverthrow 70 Free Vote.


Overthrow - Free Vote.
In the contest over the fraud and
force electimUsll there is evidence Of
tendency on the part of the more con-
sentative Republicans to press amend
ments to the measure calculated TO
modify its odious Imperialism.
The suggestions have value as calling
the attention Of the country to pro
visions 50 dctestable that even the
strongest Republicans hesitate to ac-
cept them. But they have another and
less agreeable significance. They
evince the effect of the pressure of the
hoater fund machine for aid 10 the
project that has become the favorite of
the Administration, because in no other
way is there reasonable prospect of
overcoming the popular majority
against the Republican party. A free
vote and fair count would mean the
election IT Democratic President and
another Democratic House of Repre-
sentatives In 1892. Trained 10 reliance
on the methods of intimidation and
chicanery, the imperialistic chiefs fail
10 see that their reasonable efforts can
have no other result than to render the
popular uprising against them irresist
ible and well-nigh universal.
The most noteworthy of the modifica
tons proposed are those of Senator
Teller and Senator Stewart The for
mer seeks to provide for the exercise
by officers Of elections, of ministerial
powers only, as distinguished from
Judicial while the latter proposes thai
Uongrr,sioas. yotings under the new
statute should take place on a day diff
ferent rom that upon which State ant
local officials are voted for. The former
Amendment II adopted, might hav,
some tendency toward curbing the ex

ercise of arbitrary power by subordi'
mates, and the latter would prevent tho
degradation of local elections by cen
trail despotism. The bayonet would
still be over every ballot for Congress-
man, but its baneful cleaning would

bers of State Legislatures or offic ers

No modification has been proposed.
nor can any be offered, tnat will render
the bill tolerable TO liberty-loving minds.
The fraud and force election bill,
whether modified by the silver Sena-
tors, with the bayonets hooded by Hoar.
or with them unvailed by Quay, is rad
ically and essentially vicious and trea-
sonous. Under any circumstances IL
would be the duty of members OF Con-.
gress TO fight such proposition TO the
bitter end.
The general duty Of faithful Senators
Is emphasized and enforced by the
special circumstances of the time. The
people Of the United States have passed
upon the issue of the fraud and force
election bill, and by an unprecedented
majority they have ordered Congress
not TO enact any such measure. Every

disobedience of the supreme order of
the sovereign American people. IL Is
especially the duty Of Democratic Sen
ators 10 leave nothing undone that hon
est men can do; to omit no honorable
device to prevent calamitous reversal Of
the peoples vote.
We're opposition hopeless, relaxation
on the part of the opponent might be
\ excused. But opposition is not hope
1 less. The life of the present Congress
Nends with the third day of March. I'm
less the revolution ia the suffrage be
accomplished before that time, it can
lever be effected, and the safety OF
h.me-rule elections will be forevermore
assured. II is therefore incumbent on
tho Democratic Senators to obstruet the
progress of the fraud and force election
billby every means permitted by par
lianentary law. The rules of the SEN
ate have not been altered. Gag law
doesnot prevail, and the privileges OF
free deliberative body must be exert
