the South. In all the big cities congress
sionel and presidential elections will
become as great a farce as they are now
i'll the Southern States. The honest
voting sand Counting in the country
districts of @the North will be over
whelmed by repeating, ballot box stu fling
and fraudulent counting in the large
cities. The country will then be COM
pletely at the mercy of combination
between the solid Senate made solid by
force and intimida ton, and the raj b c
of the big cities
This is not an imaginary picture.
What Tsmmany can do in the way of
ballot box stuffing and false counting
was shown in 1868, when the Republi-
can candidate for governor was counted
out by keeping back the returns from
the cities until the country vote Was
known, and then swelling it by mis-
counying so as to overcome the latter
This fraud was subsequently so thoroug h-
ly proven that the Democrats were COM
PEELED to admit it. What Tammany did
then it can do again when freed from
all restraint, as it will be by the repeal
of the Federal laws. 1t is the same COR
rupt crowd today that it was then The
great State of New York, with its large
electoral vote, will be completely at it's
mercy. The great State of Illinois will
be also at the mercy OF the Democratic
thugs and repeaters of Chicago. San
Francisco can easily .be made to over
in every State in the Union which con-
tains. a big city. under the control of the
Democracy-and the most of them are
the city votescan be and will be manipu-
lated to swamp the rural vote. The con-
try will thus be governed by the Solid
South which did it's best to destroy it,
and which regrets today that it did not
succeed, and the foreign elements jim the
great cities. This is the condition the
repeal of the Federal election laws di-
rectly tends to. And this is the condi-
tion that the Sou thern Democrats want
ern Democrat, he as rule does simply
as his Southern masters order. Some of
them apparently way down in their hearts
are really opposed to the sweeping away
of all obstacles to frauds at elections,
but none of them has the courage to pub
liclyssay so. The South and Tammany
Hall have decreed that the election laws
must go, and the Democratic congress-
man, whatever his personal views on
the subject, has got to fall into line.

Speaker Crisp suppressed the minority
in the House of Representatives by means
of parliamentary rulings and tactics far
more tyrannical and high-handed than
those for which Mr.. Reed was so violent
ly denounced by Democratic congress
men and Democratic organs. There was
much less reason for arbitrariness, too,
OIL this occasion, inasmuch as the Demo-
Gratis in the present House have SO over
whelming majority that their purposes
could not have been defeated by the
most desperate filibustering for very
great length of time after they had Sc
cured an attendance of enough of their
own members to constitute quorum.
Crisp's rulings were so manifestly unfair
that Democratic papers, even, do not un-
dertake to defend them. The Boston
Herald calls them very robust" and
the Globe says they were open to criti-
c1sm on the score of fairness. After this
performance the Democrats should have
sense enough to stop talking about Gear
Reed and his tyranny.

PERSONAL AND PECULIAR

Among the persons who have had great
influence in the revolution in Rio
Grande do Sui is woman-Madame
Gabriellade Matos, 81 years old, with
large blue eyes and blonde hair. At the
beginning of the revolt she sold her cat
tie and attached herself to the troops Of
Yucca Tigre, whose adjutant she became.
She accompanied the half wild leader
on all his expeditions, clad in uniform
which was a strange combination of
women's and mems attire. Across her
shoulders she carried band Oh which
were the words: Long live Liberty !!
Long live Rio Grande do Sul!n Many
deeds of courage, as well as kindness,
are told of this unusual woman, who
believes that she is a second Joan of Arc
called to lead her country to independ-
ence.
The heroic statue of William Penn
which has been standing in the court

Washington local committee in charge Of

The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1893-09-22

The President has sent unofficial notl-
fication to the Senated that he will enter
tain no compromise on the repeal bill, and
that it must be passed as it came from
the committee Whether this will help
the passage of the bill is questionable.
A pretty large number of the Demo-
cratic senators have never been very
friendly to Cleveland. Some of them,
like Pugh, violently opposed his nomina-
ton. Hill doesn't like him, neither
does German. 1t S Undoubtedly true
also that other senators who harbor no
special antipathy to the President have
not taken kindly to his sttempt to boss
things. They deem it an infringement
on their rights and an affront to their
dignity for the President to undertake
either directly or indirectly, to direct
them in the performance sof their duties.
While these men will not assume an
attitude of open hostility to the Presi-
dent they will not hesitate to avail them
selves of a favorable opportunity to clip
his wings little. If, therefore, the re-
peal bill is put in position where they
can push it one side without appearing
to directly oppose the President they will
be ready to take advantage of it now
that it is made clear that the President
has practically ordered them to pass it.

CURRENT COMMENT.
FEDERAL ELECTION LAWS.
IN. Y. Advertiser.]

N. X. AuteTtlSsT.J
The attitude of the South in the mat
ter Of the Federal election laws is very
fair illustration of the feelings of section
alism which governs the leaders of the
Calhounists is all public questions.
The laws in question are not local to
the South in their application; they are
operative also in the North, West and
East. And yet no complaint is made
of them in these localities except in this
city alone, where John I. Davenport
is a thorn in Tammany's side. Else
where they are regarded as good and wise
provisions by means of which fraud may
be prevented and fair election assured.
In the South they make the usual
methods of electing Democrats slightly
trou blesome if any attempt at enforcing
them it made. When they are invoked
by the citizens who wish to vote the Re
publican ticket our chlvalric neigh borS
are put to the Inconvenience of resorting
to methods which are perhaps violent
and without doubt fraudulent to either
prevent these public enemies from cast
ing their ballots or having them counted
as cast.
They are, therefore, in the eyes of the
South, sectional" and ought to be re
pealed. The proposition to repeal is
made, not because they are uniformly OBJ
iectionable since the East, North, and
West do not complain of them, but solely
because they are not liked in the South
The impression in the South is that
this country now exists for the benefit of
the South. In National legislation the
welfare and wishes of the Southern
people ought to be promoted and COM
piled with without reference to the well
fare and wishes of the other two-thirds
of the IS, 900, 900 of people in the United
States, according to the theory of the Cal
hounists.
And since the Southerners have the
controlling majority on each Important
committee of Congress they will not
hesitate to sacrifice the interests of the
other sections in order to secure their
own selfish and unpatriotic purposes

A Belfast grocer recently retired from
business after many years of service.
What goods he failed to dispose of he
carried to his home and placed in the
barn. The habit of many years is hard
to be broken. The old gentleman
amuses himself each day by sitting in
the middle of the barn smoking and con-
templating his goods Tired of smoking
he will weigh out tea, sugar, ETC., do
6he up into packages gag then undo o the
back. This he will continue to do all
day. For variety he will have man to
move the -four in one position of the
barn while he bosses the job The next
day he has the -four returned to it's old
place. No money could purchase those
