The Force Bill.

The force bill proposes to give the
entire control of congressional slec-
tions IN the states to ''clllcf supervis.
ors," with choosing whom the people
of the state are to have nothing to do.
The chief supervisors have no term
of office. They are to hold for life
and they are to nominate or select To-
cal supervisors, members Of canvass
ing or returning boards and special
deputy marshals. at pleasure in such
numbers as the exigency Of control.
ing the election requires.
These supervisors and armed
special deputy marshals are to I've en-
powered to make "house to house
canvasses" and domiciliary visits in.
vading the homes of the people iu
the capacity of armed spies OF the Dis
trict of Columbia politicians.
They are also to take charge of the
polls and make the returns to the
cheIf supervisors. These returns are
to be canvassed by the federal return
ing boards and on these returns the
clerk Of the house is to be compelled
to make up the roll of members elect.
Ii he accepts the returns OF the state
authorities against those Of the feder-
al returning boards, he is to be fined
from 81 900 to $4,000 and sent to the
penitentiary from one to five years.
The chief supervisors, holding office
for life in spite of the people of the
states, can thus control the vote, ap-
pointing and arming as many politi-
clans as they please for special deputy
marshals at salaries OF from S. to So
a day. And if the deputy marshals
fad any difficulty in controlling the
United States army can be called in
to support the chief supervisor and
his returning boards.
