elections law opened In the house this
morning. The galleries were we'll nlled.
An unusual number of negroes were pres
snt, showing their interest IN the matter.
Tucker of Virginia, opened for the demo-
Gratis. He began by pointing out that tho
right to vote was not given by the United
States, but by the constitution of the
states. He held that IL the power OF super
visors and deputy marshals permit them
to perform acts not granted IN the consti-
tuition, then the law that creates them 10
unconstitutional. The states alone can
make conditions Of suffrage. That being
the case the United States could not step
In and annul the conditions.
Tucker then proceeded 70 pay his re-
spects to John l. Davenport, whose afro
cities, he said, were more infamous than
those Of the Duke Of Alba. ''Rspsal these
laws" said Tucker, In conclusion, land
we will wipe away the statutes that have
caused the clashing between the federal
government and the states for 80 years.
said Tucker. "You," hs added, sddress.
ing the republicans. shave lived ON sec
tionalism. You have violated the pledges
of your fathers. overridden the coustitu-
ton, denied the right Of habeas corpus
and In thoosand ways shown yourself
unworthy Of public confidence. There.
fore, on Nov. 6 last you were ovsrthrown,
and We are now here to undo those things
which you did In the arrogance of your
power"

side. presented the minority report of the
committee as embodying his views. Dolli-
yer Of Iowa was to have replied 10 Tucker,
but sudden illness prevented and Brosius
