)uUij democrat TIIK r'Olil'K HILL- WHAT IS IT? It It a schmelo take elections out cf the hand of the people and place tliem In charge of federal otliciaU. Briefly stated, a chief mpervUor of electionit i appointed In each United States judicial district This chief supervisor, when he ii peti tioned to do so,call upon the circuit court to convene and appoint supervisors of elections three for each polling precinct, two from one political party and one from the other. These appointments arc made by the judge from the list of names fur nished by the chief supervisor. The su pervisors are empowered to appoint as many deputy marshals as arejdeemed necessary to carry out their plans of se curing such results as thev desire. This supervision is over state elections vhe members of congress or presidential elect. orsare to be elected. The board of supei I. sors for a nrccint have power un del direction of the chief to revise and su pervise the registration of votes, to ex amine state ballot'. boxes before election begins, to keep a poll list and the number of voters, to receive and count ballots jected by the regular and duly appointed judges of election, in cities of 20,000 ln habitants and upwards the thief may re quire any of the supervisors or deputy marshals to make a house-to-house can vass which may begin five ueeks before and end on the dar before the election. This is to inquire into the eligibility of voters and whether they have been legally naturalized, which means thai these feaer- al flunkcic called deputy marshals and sir pervisors shall simply make domiciliary visits doing the ork of trlbers, intimida' tiors, ticket peddlers, and executers gen erally of the blocks of five scheme to carrv elections. Ther are authorized to call for and examine naturalization papers of foreign born citizens The are author, ized to inform voters in which box to de posit their ballots and if they see a demo crit go w ith any voter into a room or booth it is made the duty of one of them to enter and superintend the voting. When in structed bv their chief these supervisors are to make a full list of all foielgn borr citizens who have been naturalized, with the dr.te thereof, their place of nativity and present residence and the name and residence of witnesses used to obtain nat uralization papers,and they Ore (oexamir.e and note the original affidavits and applica tions presented to the court. The United S'.ates judije is dlrecteJ by the chief su pervisor to appoint a board of three can vassers, who shall receive $15 pe- day and (hey shall appoint a clerk who shall re ceive 12 per Jay. They shall canvass the statements and certificates of ballots cast at any election general cr special, to certify the results as shown by the returns made by the supervisors to the chief su pcrviser. They thus certify who Is elected to congre-t. This Infamous bill the,, pro. vides that It shall he the duty of the clerk .of Hit lower house of congress to make ep his roll cf members elect from the returns thus made bv these supervisors. A more jlcrilMi scheme to thwart the will of the people was t-.ever concocted. The certifi cate of the governor or duly 'created can vassing hoard of a state would be entirely Ignored. The bill provides that chief su pervisors shall be appointed for life and y.s expenses ai.d salary provided for by a per manent appropriation. We have thus presented the chief pro visions of the bill. Let the reader observe the whole chain as made up link by link. The president appoints circuit judges, the circuit judges appoint chief supervi sors, and they in turn appoint boards of supervisors.who appoint deputy marshals. Under a packed judiciary, (and there is no obstacle In securing one,) fnd the step be tween a hold president, (hacked by an un scrupulous set of leaden,) av.d n dictator ship Is but a short one. Even if it never were carrltd to such a length, the unscru pulous use of the power In a doubtful state or two could very easily be made to de feat the w ill of the people. Voreover, as Senator Di-nlel, of Virginia, forcibly points out, if congress has the right, under the contti'ution, to take charge of con gressional elections, determining, through his supervisors, who have a right to reg ister and vole, then Ihe same power exists for congiess to take charge at the election of a United States Senator, by a state leg islature, and to decide w ho have the right to cast a vote In that election. The re strictions Imposed on congress by the con stitution are precisely the same in,thc 011 case as In the other with the single ception that the fhtct where the election for senator Is to be held cannot be deter mined by congiess. The federal elections bill Is a dangerous bill dangerous not alone to the tranquility of the south, but dangeious to the liberties of Amerlc north, south, east and weft.
