XX. A. LONDON. Editor.
A MM. has been passed by
Legislature authorizing the
tlie
At-
toruey General, ami such
tional counsel as ho may
nddi-
tleem
necessary, to defend any Stale nf-
ricers who are or may be lmlict.M
by the Federal court for execut-
J ....
ing the laws of this State. I lie
avowed object of this bill is to de
fend those election ollicers who
are prosecuted in the Federal
,cyurt through political malic
and for political purposes.
The Republican uiuinbers of the
Legislature bitterly opposed this
bill and there was tpiite a heated
tlebate ou its passage in both
brauches. The Democrats plainly
iuloruied the Republicans that all
the power of our State govern
ment would lJ scd t,,r the de
fense uud protection of all our;
election otlieevs, who had been or
might be prosecuted by a llcpub
lican Federal court for executing
tiu.l obeying our State law. It;
was a dramatic scene in the Sen-
itte when Senator Travis, of liali-1
fax, in a most impassioned inaiiDfi .
deol.uv.i tli.it the white ni'-n 'fi
that count v would m-u-r
Kiilnnil. to no.'ro rulp. and that if
a nero eer again icpriseiiUd
that county in the Legislature the
world would kuow that all the
w hite men of that county are dead'

ag-ainst this bill, but as it is in no

no need in winking up useless

the bill, said: " The h.ibhi.ly bill is

of Arkansas, to whom n little of
the credit for killing the vicious
biil is due, sjiid of its picseat

themselves that it would be im
possible to get the measure
through at this session, and hence
their indifference. The bill is
dead." One of Manna's threats is
that the Rier and Harbor bill

make it stick remains to be seen.
