vors Election Law Repeal.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-The first sun
Of the inevitable parliamentary battle
in the senate upon the question Of the
repeal Of the federal election laws has
been fred and II came from one of the
opponents o. repeal, Senator Cullom
IIls.E Senator Stewart New, in a
short speech, advocated tho repeal of
the election laws and incidentally gave
expression to some of his well-known
views on the financial question. The
resolution calling upon the president
for additional information in the Ha-
waiian matter was laid over in order
that Mr.. Frye (Me) might submit some
remarks,
Mr.. Cullom reviewed the legal ques-
tions involved in federal supervision Of
elections, taking the view of the con-
stitutioual power of the general govern
ment to regulate elections for federal
officers. 1t is the question he said of
state rights and state sovereignty, as
against and above the power of the
United States. Shall the election of
senators and representatives in con.
! gress be subject alike to the frauds and
outrages Of the judicial rufIians and
k the ward bullies. Shall the man.
date of corrupt Judge the order of a
| Maynard determine the complexion of
a legislature which elects a senator to
This roav? Shall the Drawn and muscle
of a McKal,a. in defiance of courts and
laws control neNt wear the electian of a
representative in congress and congress
have no power to protect Nv law the
integrity of. its own membership. In
other words is there no power in the
hands of congress by which it may
maintain in a degree the integrity and
purity of the determination of it's own
membership, or must it be ever subject
to the frauds and wrongs which state
laws have failed to prevent?
In the course of his remarks Mr.. Gull
lom attacked the New York machine,
and especially Isaac H. Maynard, the
defeated candidate for Judge. This
brought Senator Hill to his feet and a
long dialogue was carried on, Senator
Hill denying that the alleged illegal
action of Judge Maynard caused the
Democratic control of the New York
legislature.
Mr.; Cullom then went on with his
speech, referring to the pulling down
or the American flag at Hawaii, which
could not have been accomplished by
all the power Of monarchical Europe,
but which had been committed by the
order OF an American president upon
the advice and Recommendation OF a
"newly- baptized Democratic secretary
of state" Laughter.

ohio,s Destitute Veteran Soldiers

COLUMBUS, Dec. 13,-A strong plea 10
made for the old veterans In the annual
report of the trustees of the Soldiers
home at SanduSky, filed with the gover~
nor. There are at the present time over
500 aged and infirm vaterans throughout
the state who served faithfully In the
army unable to gain admission to the
home.
Some of these, az stated by Gen. M. b.
Force, the commaudAnt, who was here
with the trustees today, are past eighty
years OF age, without friends to care for
them, yet the great state whose cause they
upheld so valiantly on the fields of battle
has not provided for their wants, and out
of necessity they are denied admission.
These are 1887 inmates under charge OF
the home, the daily average attendance
during the year being 1,10l. This IL far
beyond the capacity Of the institution, and
were all those on the rolls to report at one
time il would be impossible TO furnish
them beds 10 sleep In over night. The
per capita cost for maintenance during
the year Was s162H.

less than 200 votes at any election can
be represented. At the last election
the three counties polled but 1914 votes,
so that unless the legislature, which is

Discussing Admission of Utah.

WASHINGTON Dec. 13.-The consid-
Grafton of the bill for the admission Of
Utah into the sisterhood of states was
begun in the house. The principal
point at issue was whether the enabling
act should contain provision imposing
pains and penalties for polygamous
marriages, the contention on the one
hand being that the state should come
in on an equal footing with other states
unhandicapped by such provisions; on
the other that as polygamy had been
stamped out by the federal statute, on
the admission of the territory would
repeal that statute, congress should
make 1t practically part of the enacting
act. Mr.. Morse (Mass.) in opposing
the bill, took occasion to make a vicious
assault on Utah and Mormonism and
recalling all the outrages of plural
marriages. the crimes of Danites, the
Meadow massacre, blood atonement and
the revelations Of the endowment house.
Mr. Rawlins, the Utah delegate, in the
course Of brilliant speech champion
Ing the bill replied to Mr. Morse and
