Owing to the leading position Of the Hebrews In

Mr.. Compton's Speech.

The Hon. Barnes Compton made the
principal speech in favor Of the repeal
Of the federal election laws in the
House of Representatives on Wednes-
day. The Baltimore Suns correspond
ent says he spoke for more than ali
hour, and was listened to attentively
by members on both sides of the cham
Der. After discussing the question Ill
its constitutional phase, he said that
the plea get up by the republicans that
the laws were intended to protect the
colored man in the South was alb
surd. The laws were INTENDED for the
sole purpose of controlling elections
III New York, and had been
enforced principally with that end in
view. He showed by statistics that the
expenditures for United States mar
shals on election days in the Southern
States was less than the amount spent
in New York State. 1t was strange, if
the Republicans cared so much for the
colored voters, that they did not make
greater effort to enforce the laws
Mr.. Compton claimed that the election
laws were intended more to help carry
the Northern States than the South

Is 1t Patriotic :?

The United States Senate, or more
properly those Senators who are OBJ
structing action on the Repeal bill,
show an objectionable want Of patriot
ism. 1t has been well said by Mr..
Chauncey NJ. Depew that ''nothirg has
happened since the organization Of this
government that has br6c ght the Sen
ate into such disrepute.' Why is 1t
that they continue to trihe with public
opinion Surely there cannot be a
mong the number any who think they
are respecting the wishes Of their con-
stituents in advocating free silver, ex-
cept in the case of those who represent
the silver States. The Senate was sup
posed. and was intended by the consti
tuition, to be conservative body. But
it is not just or reasonable that it
should under this pretence impose up
on public opinion, and battle the House
in its efforts to right wrong in obedi-
ence to the dictates of the sovereign
people.
