NEW WEST REPUBLICANISM
As Yoked by Senator Walcott,
of Colorado.
AGAINST THE FORCE ELECTION BILL
An Eloquent Appeal by a Vigor
ous Young Ilopublicnu
leador.
Tho last dnyp of the old year en
gaged tbc. United States scnato In
debut o-of the federal elections bill.
As Is well known, tho republicans
arc not united upon tho measure.
In the first session of tho present
congress the bill passed the house
by a strict party vote. In the sen
ate Its consideration was defeated by
(Senator Quay and a few others.
The president aud other party lead
ers still urge tho measure against
the chairman of tho Natioual Bo
publican committee and other lead
ing republicans iu the senate, and a
few iu the house.
Tho old New England leaders,
such men as Hoar and Aldrlch
hayo mado ablo aud exhaustive
speeches for the bill. But tho sen
ator who made tho greatest hit and
attracted most attention from
fellow-members, gallery and In the
press reports was the young senator
from Colorado, iu opposition to tho
bill. It was his second speech iu
the souato and Wolcott made a hit.
His first speeoh was for free silyer
aud won him great renown as repre
senting tho new west republicanism,
which on financial ami economic
policies sides with the south rather
than wltn Now England, He
voiced this feeling in a powerful
manner on this occasion.
THE SPEECH.
Ho spoke only twenty-one min
utes, and iu that time told both
sides some plausible and well-seasoned
political truths. He refuted tho
sectional and partisan attacks of the
South on tho bill, but showed that
he opposed tho bill on loftier
grounds, than those based ou party
passion and sectional projudico. He
regretted to differ with able men of
liis party, but to him there was no
alternative, as ho opposed tho bill
from considerations for tho welfare
of tho whole country. He showed
that many more important meas
ures were being neglected und forced
out of tho position their imporfunco
claimed, by this bill. Tho nation
stood in tho shadow of financial dis
aster, prices wcro again shrinking
and morchauts falling for waut of a
suitable currency, aud he called it u
travesty on duty to sit hero and
spend time discussing changes in an
ejection law which has Btood with
out chango for twenty years,.
But it was not on account of tho
importance of other measures or
lack of time that he opposed this
bill, but It was because he was was
AOAIN8T FKDEHAL SUKVEILLANCO.
"The bill, Mr. President, should
not become a law becuuso It involves
federal interference and espionage
in other than national elections, and
such interference Is contrary to the
spirit of our lititutiouaud an ob
stacle to tho right enjoyment of lib
erties. If a measure could be iramcd
making tho day of election of mem
bers of congress separate and dis
tinct from any local elections, and
the officers appointed to supervise
such election could be so limited in
their powers and tenure of ofilco us
to secure impartiality in tho exercise
of their functions, I should favor it,
but any federal meddling with state
elections Is, to my mind, intolerable.
Wo are told of the great good the
present law has done In the larger
cities and that state ofllclals have
frequently worked tu harmony with
tho federal officers at elections. All
this may bo true, but I think it does
not offer a sufficient urgumeut for
the law. Take tho city of New York
with thousands of Ignorant and
criminal and venal voters.
ItKKOHM WILL COME.
"It Is, to my mind, better that Its
local and state elections should be at
tended with fraud und dishonesty
than that they should be kept pure
by federal Interference. Even In tho
cltyof New York there are infinitely
more good men than bad, more men
who want honest elections than
there uro men who wuut dishonest
elections, und while for (he time
local Interests suffer, in the end tho
decent men baud together, animated
not only by motives of good citizen
ship, but by u desire to protect prop
erty Interests, and by united action
they secure good government, or us
near an approueli to It as can Ix) hud
Iu great rjltles- 1'uhllo opinion Is al
ways not finally right, but finally
controlling, und federal surveillance
only weakens the cltizou's sense of
responsibility without permanently
eradicating tho ovil.
'Wo tried tho reriicdy of federal
interference in Denver, the capital
of Colorado. Wo tried it last in 1888
at tho suggestion and under tho
mauagemout of n democratic dis
trict attorney and a democratic mar
shal. The law was administered by
a judgo who is bo exceedingly fair
aud impartial that ho Is invariably
opposed to both sides. Laughter.
Iu tliiitconununity,the capital of tho
state of Colorado, composed of peo
ple noted for their probity and up
rightness on election day as welt as
every other day in tho year, Wo hud
federal supervision of tho election
two years ago. No chango was
made in the result and there could
bo no change because It was an hon
est election. Aud yet, Mr. President,
I do not believe that In the city of
Denver there was a citizen who loved
his state who did not iu his heart
resent tho presence at tho polliug
places of theso federal marshals to
supervise this exerclso of tho high
function tf sullrago respecting tho
matters which affected his common
wealth. Aud lu tho last congres
sional election, by tho united aud
expressed wish of both political par
ties, we did away with fedoral super
vision nud mauaged our own elec
tion fairly und impartially an( uu
corruptedly, IT WOULD STIR UP STHIFE.
"Tho friends of the bill, Mr. Pres
ident, assume it to bo iu tho inter
est of tho colored uiuu when its
enactment could bring him only
harm. It would bo idle to say that
the government could not enforce
this law. It would bo 'equally Idle
to claim that it ever woulu, in fact,
be enforced. The pcnple of the
United States waut no more civil
strife, nud against tho. united oppo
sition of the white population lu tho
Southern states, any attempt to en
force it would mean practically a
conflict between tho stato and
national authorltlin. Tho old Ill
feeling would be resumed, and whilo
all, as it party, were lighting to pro
tect tho colored voter, tho old days
of terrorizing would comoogaln, and
tho. weaker race would be the
sutlercr. It Is true that tho very
foundation and corner-stone of our
republic is tho right of suffrage aud
tho protection of every citizen enti
tled to vote lu equal enjoyment of
that right; yet I must risk adverse
criticism by suggesting that at this
time, In I ho present economic con
dition of tho South, and with tho
present general ignorance of tho
colored race, for which it Is nowise
responsible, there uro many things
mora important and vital to tho
welfaro of this nation than that tho
colored citizens of the South shall
vote. There has been a lack, I fear,
of Ingenuousness ou both sides of
this chamber. The democratic
opponents of this bill would havo
lost nothing had they publicly ad.
tnltted what Is everywhere claimed
for them iu private, that in certain
Southern slates where the colored
population outnumbers tho white,
the colored voters, owning compara
tively none of tho tuxublo property
toi tho community, uro led and con
trolled by a few Irresponsible men,
and would, If permitted to exercise
tho right of suflrtigo secured to them
uuder the constitution, destroy oil
safeguards to proporty und work
irreparablo Injury to tho best inter
ests of the commonwealth, and that
for theso reasons they nre circum
vented of their tights. This would
bo ttt least an intelligent reason for
opposition to the measure.
ICJNOKANCB CANNOT HULK.
"On tho other hand It occurred to
mo that when thenenator from Lou
Isiana (Mr.Eustls) asked the scnutor
from Oregon (Mr. Dolph) tho other
day what his stato would do if tho
Chinese had the franchise lu Oregon
and outnumbered the whites, the
answer seemed somewhat evasive.
I cannot speak for Oregon, und yet
I give it us my solemn opinion that
in Colorado, where mountains In
spire only freedom and love of Jus-
tlco, where the republican party has
as large a majority In proportion to
population as Kansas und Nebraska
in their lucid years, If such u condi
tion of uffuirs existed us the seuutor
stated, und Ifthut vote was opposed
to the lucid und Intelligent white
vote, then In some way and by some
method, I know not how, the white
vottf would govern.
But It by no means follows that
the congressional representation
should be bused otherwise than ou
the vote cast, und tho existing state
of aflalrH at the South oilers no good
reason why the conditions should
not be equullzetl by law us that a
votelu the North should huvo the
same value for purposes of political
representation us a vote lu theHouth.
I um not Informed that In auy
southern state there Is uny Inclina
tion to leglslute ugulnst the colored
man, or lliut, except iu the question
of sulfruge there Is serious friction
between the races,
"Ho fur the views of the two races
Ituve been radically opposed to each
other. The time will surely come,
lu my opinion (If wo do not seek to
foment trouble) when the white vc
ttm of the South will bo hardly as
