Mr. President, so faj' h< 112 know, and I have r.t all times been ready to perform my duty, the committee has never been ornan -Ik. (1 More than 'wo month have f» v ;ced since we have gotten down to hard work. We have hern con siderin" 1 lindrt oi liMls upon the floor of the senate. Vv'e have even fixed the date for final adjourn ment We have even passed a res ohition araln. t the introduction of anv new bills unless by unanimous consent All this suggests to >ts that the period of ♦he work of this ses sion is ratudb drawinp to a lose nnil that unless this bill is passed no other similar ' Ml can be passed, mid yel In the face of the over whelming demand from every part of this commonwealth for a law that will | rr-vent fraudulent voting and repeating in our cities. In (lie face of the verdict of lnri.OOO ma jority for the constitutional amend ment. in the fae. of a practically unanimous prets wh'e.h subjects the wishes of tii ' people of this commonwealth, this committee is apparently glvinp no heed to these di nan To our shame will it he said that wo have neulected the most important subject before the people of this commonwealth. "The Democratic party in this state is pled Fed to personal regis tration to fair election law. and to the enactment of a civli service law. but. gentlemen, we are not clone in f his demand. You mistake the important' of the movement if V i>", do not realize that th-re are thousands of voters in youi i;-. v n ranks who are just as Insistent in their demands a:, are the Ji- rao crat'- or any reformers of any part.y. Therefore." Mr. Presid'T.t. tisis Is not a party demand only. 1* does not savor of partisanship. Many TJenpie of your own party rro as honest for a fair registration law ns are anv other citizens, but they nre too small in numbers to ef f-i tmlly insist upon action, while tin- irirtv at lnrpe reaps the benefit of the illegal vtte polled or counted In our lartro cities. "The newspapers of Phllad dphla have lately been giving much un necessary space to the recital of immoral conditions of ct rtnin portions of that city, and the re ported connection between c'rtam police offict rs and the 'dens of vie . These charges are not made by Democratic newspapers only. Knew Ser.ate Was Under Orders. "They mav or may not be true. hut this one thi'ip is admitted upon »pll side - that there *re registered from these dens of vice larce uuni -1 rs of |i rsons who are not enti f, ,| to voti but who do vote at the Instance and hy the connivance of tin 1 ward organizations.
