I think we can see motives. but can you see the philosophy of it " I think I am safe in saying that the laws of all the States are substantially the same as in Vermont in this respect . but Delaware. Vermont. and New York are enough for me. and I say that either the laws of every one of these States are based upon a false and defective theory and have been from their birth to this time. or this law that you propose to make is based upon a false and defective theory. because they do not stand together. they stand in direct opposition. ThosheriZ the constable. in Delaware. or Vermont. or Ohio takes the election officer. if he is charged with a crime. from his desk. where he is stuffing the ballotbox. or charged with stuffing it. takes him from his desk. where he is assisting in pa~sing fraudulent naturalization papers. and takes him into the arena of law. Does that stop the election. By no means.
