United States marshal or his deputies. to make arrests without formal complaint made before some judicial officer. The consequence would be that the- person is left without remedy and is at the mercy of a large class of officers all over the States.. officers who are mere deputies. none of them elected. many of whom I know are irresponsible persons. These officers are allowed to capture aChinaman who may. be engaged in some lawful industry. and yet at the will of one ofthese subordinates he may be taken by the neck and brought before a judge. the case may be hard. no one of his countrymen can speak. although he may be as- truthful as- the Apostle Paul. none shall beallowed to speak for him. and a judgmentof deportation is rendered. There may be errors of law and oi fact in that judgment. because our judges are. not infallible. and while that man is seeking a rehearing before the established tribunals of the.country he remains in jail in the custody of the marshal until that question is tried.
