judge eomparca carefully the languago
bf the act of CnjregSjfthBections of
the Revised Statutes, in which the pow
ers and duties oftbese4wolasfe8f jfH
fleers are set forth. Bv section 2019 the I
supervisors are expressly authorized "to
take, occupy and remain in such posi
tion from time to time, ( whether before
or behind the ballot-boxes, as will, in
their judgment,' best enable them to see
each person offering to yote, and. as will
best conduce to thfeif " scrutinizing the
imanner in which the votingis being
conducted," etc. This is express au

press authority ,kis given -to, the deputy
marshals. By section 2021 it is made
their duty, when required to do so by the
supervisors, to "attend the polls" By
section 2022 it is made their duty to
keep the jeace, and support and protect
the supervisors, to preserve order at the
polling-places, to prevent fraudulent
voting, or fraudulent conduct on the
part of any officers of election, ' etc.
They are further empowered to arrest
without process.any person who com
mits illegal acts in their presence. It
may be noted' "that these provisions are
comprehensive enougbtnd trench-suf
ficiently upon the province ofrthe "States
and theduty olthe State police to pre-
to justify all the opposition which has
been manifested to their further con-
inuance upon the statute book by the
Democratic party." They do not, how

shals have no right to be in the, room in
