State Registrars ami the State Judges
of Election for numerous offenses de
clared by the net, and in some in
stances to require them under pains
-# and penalties to disregard the State law
they swear to supjxirt. And it places
every one of these State officers at the
mercy of the irresponsible ltoputiesap
pointed by the Federal Marshal, and
who, according to the experience we
have had of the act, have generally
been men of the basest and moat de
graded character that could be found ;
men who have served terms in the pen
itentiary ; men who were notorious
thieves; men who kept houses of in fa
mous resort; in a word, the most
despicable characters that could be
taken up in the great cities of New
York, I'hiladelphia, or elsewhere. To
these wretches is given the power to
tear the .ludges of election from their
seats by an arrest without warrant, to
arrest any, the most respectable voter
in the city, and thereby to prevent him
from exercising his right of suffrage
and to terrify whole bodies of voters by
threats of arrest and by outright vio
lence. This is no overdrawn picture.
It is not drawn strongly enough. Who
ever will-read the testimony taken be
fore committees of investigation of
Congress in regard to the elections in
New York, especially the election of
last year, will be amazed at the detail
of enormities, almost too shocking for
belief, committed by these Supervisors
and Deputy Marshals. Their great ob
ject seems to have been to prevent nat
uralized citizens from voting, and for
this purpose hundreds of arrests were
made, and the persons arrested held in
custody until they surrendered their
naturalization papers or agreed that
they would not vote. Among the hun
dreds of arrests actually made, and the
thousands of persons against whom
warrants were prepared, it is difllcult to
find, so far as 1 have been able to dis
cover, the name of an American-born
citizen. Indeed, the execution of the
law was a Know-Nothing crusade
against naturalized citizens, and it has
been estimated, with apparent reason,
that at least five or six thousand of such
citizens were deterred from voting last
fall in the single city of New York by
this peisecution. <>f the cruelties
practiced on those who were arrested,
of their confinement in a sort of cage
in the office of the Chief Supervisor, of
the sufferings they underwent while
thus confined, I have no time to-night
to speak. I wish you could all rend
the testimony that details these mat
ters, for 1 venture to say that there is
not an honest or a humane man in this
audience who would not be shocked by
the recital. The truth is that this
Election l.aw, or at least so much of iis
• provisions as authorizes the appoint
ment of Supervisors and Deputy Mar
shals, is a mere scheme to buy voters
by appointing them Deputy Marshals,
and to employ Republican electioneers
and Republican desperadoes to control
the elections of the people and to pay
them out of the treasury of the United
States. When the bill was under cow
sideration in Congress, it was said that
such a law was necessary for the pro
tection of the Freedmen of the South :
but the truth is that the law origi
nated in the Cnion League Club of tlie
city of New York, and was made esj>e
cially for that city. <n this subject I beg
A leave to read a few extracts from a
speech delivered by me at the last ses
sion. Speaking of these laws, I said:
"Here i the way these laws originat
ed, not at all in the interest of the
Freedmen of the South, as has been so
often contended, but solely for the pur
pose, or mainly for the purpose, of con
trolling the elections of the city of New
York, and by that means of the great
State of New York.
"Now, how have they been executed?
Their execution proves just what I say.
Lot me give you some figures upon that
subject taken from the official reports
of the Attorney General and from the
reports of Investigating Committees.
In 1870, under these laws, there were
4,80.1 Supervisors of Election appointed,
and of these 1,779 were appointed in
the State of New York, nearly one-half
of them in that single State. Again,
there were 11,010 Marshals appointed
and more than one fourth of them were
appointed in the State of New York.
But now look where the money was
spent, for that is the main point. There
was expended under those acts in that
year the sum of $'285,9*22.07. How much
of it was expended to protect the poor
Freedmen at the South ? In the South
ern States, to wit: Alabama, Georgia,
Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North
< 'arolina, South Carolina. Tennessee,
Texas and Virginia, $48,719.81 were
spent, while in the other States, $2-17,-
202.21. That is to say, one-sixth of the
money was spent in the South and five
sixths of it spent in the North. That
• is the way they protected the poor
Ereedman. They had given him the
right to vote,' they had compiled the
South, in self-defense, to give him the
right to vote. They guaranteed him
against any discrimination on account
of race, color, or previous condition of
servitude ; but when it came to using
the money of the United States, for $1
that they gave to protect him, to guar
antee him, they spent $5 to corrupt elec
tions at the North and to deprive them
of their right to vote at the North.
How much of this money was paid in
order to fix up the elections in New
Tork City ? I have shown you that the
total expenditure was $285,922. Of that
$151,000, being more than half the
whole amount, was spent in the State of
New York. That is the way the right
of the Freedmen to vote without objec
tion on account of race, color or previ
ous condition was enforced.
"Rut let us pass on ; and I must pass
on or I shall never get through. J,et us
come to 1878, and we shall find another
specimen of the same thing. The Su
pervisors appointed in 1878 were forty
eight hundred and eighty-one. Of these
nineteen hundred and fifty-three, near
ly one-half, were appointed in New
York, and sixteen hundred and eighty
two were appointed in Pennsylvania.
• That made thirty-six hundred and thir
ty five in those two States alone, leaving
only twelve hundred and forty six for
ail the other States in the Union. That
is the way they took care of the poor
Freedmen at the South. Of the deputy
marshals forty-seven hundred and
twenty-five were appointed, and of these
about one-half, twenty throe hundred
and eight, were appointed in Now York
and in all the other States of the Union
only twenty-four hundred and seven
teen were appointed. That made of
Supervisors and Marshals ninety-six
hundred and six. The expenditures
were $222,714 22, for I want to he pre
cise; and in the Southern States from
which returns were made, to wit: Ala
bama, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana,
South Carolina and Virginia, what por
tion do you suppose was expended of
this $222,000? Of course, you would
suppose that as the Ku-Klux raged
down there, as the White Leaguers rag
ed down there, as there was no such
thing as free elections down there, as
the poor negroes were massacred in or
der that the whites might carry the
elections, you would suppose, as all that
took place according to Itadical author
ity, that that was the place where the
most of the Deputy Marshals of the
United States were appointed and
whero niost of the money was spent.
Rut, singularly enough, of this $222,-
714.22 expended in 1878 the amount
used in the Sout.i was just $18,241.01;
that is to say, about one twelfth of the
whole expenditure, while eleven
twelfths of it was expended in the
North. Why was it expended in the
North? Let the gains of the Republi
can party in New York, in New Jersey
and in Pennsylvania answer the ques
tion why it was expended there. The
gains in tho House of Representatives
will answer it better than anything elso
can answer it. At one single election
there was a gain of more than fourteen
members of the House of Representa
tives, and, singularly enough, the great
er the expenditure of money, the great
er was the gain of Republican members
of Congress.
Rut it is not alone for the persecu
tion, fraud and corruption to which
these laws give rise that they should ho
condemned. There is a fatal objection
to tlietn that cannot be overcome ; and
that is that they are in violation of the
Constitution. The right to pass them
is claimed under Article 1, Section 4, of
the Constitution, which provides that
"the times, places and manner of hold
ing elections for .Senators and Represen
tatives shall be provided in each State
by the Legislature thereof; but the
Congress may at any time by law make
or alter such regulations except as to
the places of choosing Senators.' - <'n
this subject I said in the speech to
which 1 have referred :
"In the first place, it is to be observed
that the provision in the Constitution
relates simply to the election of Sena
tors and Representatives in Congress.
In the second place, the power given to
Congress is the power to make regula
tions in respect to the times, places and
manner of holding elections, or to alter
the regulations when made by a State,
with the limitation that they shall not
change the places fixed by the State
authorities for choosing Senators. It is
obvious that the laws now under con
sideration and which we pnq>ose to re
peal are not exertions of the jiower to
prescribe the time or place of holding
elections, Iweause they do no such
thing. If. therefore, they are author
ized by this section of the Constitution,
it must be in virtue of the word 'man
ner,' That is the only word that is left.
• •••••••••
I go to another proposition which I
hold is capable of demonstration, and
that is, that whether the right of Con
gress to regulate the manner of Con
gressional elections when there is no
default on the part of the State, exists
or does not exist, the laws which this
bill proposes to repeal are not a consti
tutional exercise of the power, for it is
fundamental that Congress can not,
under Article 1, Section 4, interfere in
any manner whatever with the election
of State officers. It can no more do it,
under pretense of regulating Cong res
sional elections, than it can when no
Congressmen are to be elected. It fol
lows that any regulation of Congres
sional elections enacted by Congress
must be so framed as not to interfere
with tho election of State officers. If it
does so interfere it is unconstitutional.
Upon that I stand with a consciousness
of being in the right that I hope is not
presumptuous. To me no legal propo
sition ever appeared clearer. Thereare
two classes of elections in this country.
There is an election for Federal officers.
Representatives and Senators in Con
gress, and Electors of President and
Vice-President; if the latter can prop
erly be called Federal officers. There
is another class of elections for the offi
cers of a State and her subdivisions.
With the election of this latter class
Congress, under this clause of tho Con
stitution. has no more right to interfere
than it has to interfere with the elec
tions in France. So far as it ran inter
fere at all, it is under the Fifteenth
Amendment, and that is simply to
guarantee the right of men
qualified against a discrimination jr>n
account of race, color, or previous con
dition of servitude. Rut that guaran
tee, I have shown, has nothing to do
here. Here the question is not about
objections of race, color, or previous
condition of servitude, but it is wheth
er Congress, tinder the pretense of reg
ulating Congressional elections, can in
effect regulate the election of State offi
cers too, and that in direct violation of
the laws and the rights of the States.
"If our forefathers in the Convention
should have put a clause in the Consti
tution that would warrant what these
laws attempt, they knew that the
whole instrument would be rejected,
and rejected with scorn and indigna
tion. Sir, I ask what do these laws
effect ? Do they not interfere with the
election of State officers ? How is it
that when hundreds upon hundreds of
men who claimed the right to vote, and
who, to far as we know, had the right to
vote at the last election in the City cf
New York, were arretted by Federal
officers, dragged from the |>olis before
Mr. Commissioner Davenport, put in a
cage as many as the cage would hold,
kept there until the election was over,
snd others only admitted to bail on the
condition that they would promise not
to vote, others again only on condition
that they would surrender their natu
ralization papers—papers that he had
no more right to take from then) than
he had to take their goods and chattels
—when that was done was that not in
terference with the election of the offi
cers of tho State ? Was that simply a
regulation of the manner of electing
members of Congrt'ss ? Wan tbat not
an interference with tho election of the
member* of the Legislature of the
State who wore to he chosen at that
election? Was it not an interference
with the election ot one of the Judge*
of the highest judicial tribunal of that
Btnte then to bo chosen? Wnsit not no
interference with tho election of every
State oilicer who was voted for at that
election? Who can deny it? Nobody
can. And, sir, will you tell mo that
Congre** under tho jiowor to regulate
the manner of election* in the choice
of members of Congress, can frame a
law in Htich wi*e a* really to authorize a
Deputy Marshal of the United State*
to tear the State Judge* from their seat*
and confine them in prison and stop
the election, and that all that is not in
terfering with the right* of the Stales
to hold their election for State officer*
according to their own laws? Will you
toll mo that i an exercise of the power
to regulate the manner of electing
members of Congress? No, sir, it will
not stand one moment's examination
There are some things so clear that ar
gument upon them only serve* fo oh
scuro them, and this is one of them.
A man would be absurd who *hould ar
gue that two and two do not make
tour ; but he would bc'scareely more ab
surd than he who should argue that
laws which permit the interference of
which 1 have spoken, can be sustained
under the provisions of the Constitu
tion authorizing Congress to regulate
the manner of electing metr.Lois of
Congress."

SOUND REASONS
Why we can undersell any exclusive Clothing
Store in Centre county.
Reasons which if carefully weighed will convince
any one with average common sense:
First Wr. thai in all classes of general merchandise, including DRY GOODS,
Clothing, Boots and Shoes, Groceries, Queensware, Notions, Carpets,
Hats and Cups, and everything generally kept in a well regulated Country Store,
Second We hep the largest and Ijest assorted stock-, in styles and (/utilities, of Men's,
Youth's and Childrens' Clothing in Centre county.
Third—From the two foregoing reasons any one, ran easily see t/ur rnaiutename dors
not depend upon the large pro/its that must he made, on a suit of clothing toy any e.nclusire
clothing store, and conseguetitly we Fan afford to sell at a smaller profit than any of them.
And since we can afford it we are willing to give our customers the benefit of tfw same.
