THE PLEDGE MUST BE KEPT Tho l'cclcinl election lllll Hhnulil to Create Sectional and Itaeo l'rcjml Washington, I). July mutative Bjlilin, Now York, mm of tho Congressional Committee, has the following address to tho llepublican editors of the country: The Republican party in its several National plat forma lata pledged the country that, aa one of its fundamental planks, it would tie to tho execution of that provision of the constitution which guarantees to every lawful voter in Federal elections his right to depoeit his ballot and have it counted for the 01 nih cnoice.

Tina pledge, bused on justice, involves merely the ercitoof an unquealionablc constitutional right ol every American citizen. ttieleas, the gravest election abuaea in a largo 6cctiou of our country have deprived vast masses of their lawful franchise, have by fraudulent agencies imposed an unlawful representation in the National Llouae of ltepreueutatives, and have tbua practically subverted the constitution in some of uioat important and valuable provinioiiB. WHAT 18 DEMANDED. The strict enforcement of this inalienable right ia demanded aa a aolemn duty. Nj ijutbtion of negro supremacy, no usurpation of Federal power ia involved in the issue.

The national electioua bill, which recently pasted the House, deals only with Natioual elections; it does not meddle directly or indirectly with State electioua, State ollicera or State organizations. The States are very properly left to workout their own deatiuy through their own agencies. Why, then, should the bill not become, a law? Aa declared by the Hon. Wm. McKinley, iu his recent speech iu the House, paet-age of the Federal tion bill ia the supreme duty of the House." The passage eaanoc longer be reabouably evaded.

The House, faithful and active in the fulfillment of party pledges, zealous in the performance of great public truet, and undaunted by the diabolical threata and astaulta of the Democratic party, baa promptly performed its duty by the passage of the hill. Now, it only I remains lor the Republican majority iu the Senate to emulate the House and permit the President by his signature to I rutifv uftti rhn tvihnf Will the SciMtu promptly perforin this imperative obligation? t11k democratic plan. The Committee is in possession of infoimatiou showing a concerted effort on tho of ho Democratic party to change the trend of public thought by poisoning thoi minds of the people to itie end that a sentiment may be manufactured that would deter Congress from patsing a National election law at this seefcion. It is.believed that a favorable txprtEBiOtfol opinion at this juncture from the Kepubiican press all along the line would be aa forcible as timely, and would exert a wholesome influence and inspire legislators to the carrying out of tie party's pledges. The House lias performed its part of the work to which the party was pledged.

"Will you not do your duty in urgiugtbat the Senate shall respond promptly by the pnstago ot the measuxe which the House deems essential, absolutely sential, to tho purity of the elections of, its own members?
