THE INDIANA STATE SENTINEL, WEDNESDAY MORNING FEBRUARY 28, 1877

AMENDSenator Reeve Disensses the Proposed Changes in the Election Law, And Corrffta Seine Falne Impression In Regard i UN fcpeeclmf ijitt Friday. To itit- Kdltor of the Sentinel: iK Mach misrepresentation ha.- been iiiaU tf :uy osition on the proposed amendment to the hecond section of the second article of the co..stitution, proposed and icu.-iv:d in tue aetiite o: rriday la.st. Personally, I care nothing aa to what is said. I announced when I betraa lay remarks in thf senate that 1 was fully aware that .he rvuMtion I wa about to assume would be unpopular wiiha certain cla, but having won placed to the i on i ton of a leg :l..tor, l had no ri:ht to comid.-r any personal results, nor 10 pander to any popular prejud ee or pred'Spos'-tion; the only question for m e to eonuier ana act on wa, what would ruo-t subserve and tend to perpetuate our n presentatire republican form of movem ent Heretofore and now the United Slates requires a foreigner to reside here five years; tobt have .s a man of good moral tharactiT, attached to the principles of the constitution of the Lnited States and wvll disposed to its good order and happiness ; and this he must prov by t AO witnesses who are citizens bofore he can be admitted to renounce his allegiance to all foreign rulers and declare lis allegiance uour government. But for the favor of suites he could not ooncr be admitted to vote here, Bv the favor of Indiana he ha b'-en admitted to vote at her elections after oue year's residence in the United States and six months inside her boundaries, on declaring his intention to become a citizen. Under this favor many thousands have been voters wIjo could not sneak one word of Knlih and who never have become citizens; and they are numerous enough tocont.oj any election in the state, and still are not citizens. Without reeard to who or what they were, or what they had been in the old country; whether tbey were Intelligent or ignorant, honest or rascally, pood men or criminals, loyal or fugitives from justice, tax-payers or bfirgars, all alike, on six months residence and a declaration of intention to liecoiuc a citizen, have had an equal voice in the selection of men to administer government iihnien born and reared and educated here, and who owe allegiance by birth. The privilege has been seized on by political hucKsters and tricksters to make as many sueh voters as possible, merely to secure position in otlice for office seekers, and hundreds have been put through the process on the day of eloctiou, simply to procure a majority of votes. I ara one whole!ieves the rights of citizen--hip are worth something. I regard them a of priceless value under a form of govrniniprit whfre the citizens can select the mien, can tax themselves, and have a voice in the selection of every olficer from lowest to highest, and where the only government It the law, 3nd that Jaw made by the men selected by the votes of the citizens. I wish it to be noted that I use the word "citizen." .ind njt "native American," as has been charccd upon me. All foreigners can bpcome citizens on the :-rius rixed by the naturalization Jaws, and the I.ighot, ruoet valuable and proudest riht of citizenship is the riht to vote. Had the United States in an curly day regarded the elective franchise as cheaply as we do ihey would never have made the naturalisation laws they did make. They would have made one year's residence nough to adndt to the final oath. But they valued it highly, and they m tde five years' residence, good conduct, good character and open evidence of attachment to the principles of the constitution, open evidence for the good order and happiness of the United States, precedent conditions, and all the facts must be proved by two citizens in open court: not two persons, or two aliens, but two citizens; ami then the applicant must, before that, have gone before an officer and entere I of record a description of himself, and on oath declared his intention to become a citizen; and have, on oath, renounced Iiis allegiance to all other authority. Our fathers encouraged immigration. They wanted aliens to come here. They invited and encouraged them to come They gave them liberty and great privilege?, but they gutrded citizenship and the elective franchise with all these barriers, knowing iu value and its power, and its damren in the p-rsons of bad men. Here, if a citizen commits a crime the law disfranchises him. but the states take in all kinds of aliens ai d admit them to all the pri vileges of citizenship without their being citizens, not liable tft military duty, not owing : alliance to the United States, able to claim the protection of a foreign government, and without a question as to whe ther they have been guilty or convicted of crime, or whether they are entitled to a certificate of good moral character. While there are thousand and now million of foreijmers who make good citizens and are welcome and we are glad to have them as citizens, there are other thousands, and I may aay millions, who make bad citizens and are not fit to be clothed with the rights and powers of a citizen. 4AT? have plenty of ignorant and vicious people who are bom to the right without going to foreign lands for more, or clothing them with the precious right of citizenship when that kind come to our shores to bunt homes and the protection of a free government There are more than ten millions of foreigners who today are clothed with the rights, privileges and owrs nf cit'zenship, of whom fully 3.(G0,i00 have the privileges and yet are aliens, and have never been naturalized; and tWre are voters enough in the latter class to control every election in every state and on every question in the union. Like oar own had jeople they know nothing of the right or duties or obligations of citizenship. They regard simply its privileges and its ower. They construe liberty to ra-an license. Political leaders and manager se-k for them and their votes, and make them to orrler where they can rind one not yet moulded as a voter. Vhen tfcey vote with one party they are "the hont Germans," or the "patriotic Irish," or the "enlightened French" with that party, and with the other party they are "the lop- -ared Dutch," the -bog trotters" and the "dd Johnny Crapaud." When they vote with the other party then the former sings the cry of anathema. It haa come to be well understood tht "the party who gets the foreign vote," not the Tote of the naturalized citizen, carr.es the election. Mark the words "foreign vol " They talk about "liemian" cit'Mis, Iril Americans," and other like imme, an if a man who bad become an American citizen could be something elm, or teiiythin el. Once admitted to the elective frinche. be is an American or notbin; and if he claims to be anything el, he should b disfranchised. Now, right or wrong, popular or unpopular, good for the ptrty or had for it, I am one who believes and bluntly say so that the ballot U too cheap in this country and

THE CONSTITUTIONAL HENTS.

the pride of citizenship is losing its dignity, and if we go on as we have de the time is not distant when representative republican government will have ceased as a practical reality and iL memory be only a thing in history. I take the same position that many of our intelligent, foreign born citizens take, and there arc thousands of them who will vote to sustain it; that is. admit no foreigner to the elective franchise unless he lias some fitness to exercise it. Asa citizen is disfranchised for crime, so adni't no man to be enfranchised who has been convicted of crime until fie be fully naturalized. As the United States requires tive years' residence and two years' previous declaration of intention and proof of good character, let the states require longer residence than one year and proof of good character before admitting to vote, and the applicant's own evidence at least that he has not been convicted of crime. My xsition in the seriate was this: I advocated an amendment to the constitution that foreign born residents must be white men (we have enovorli colored men of our own); must reside in the United States two vearsand in the state one year; must declare their intention to become a citizen, and swear that they had. not been convicted of crime when they made their declaration of intention. This was tlie head and front of my offending, and the man who says more simply states what is false. By this jo.sition I abide. J he slums of foreign cities are being emptied upon us; fugitives from justice come by hundreds; the lazzaroni of Italy swarm in our seaboard cities, and the Swede and the Pane (who always vote for the party in poweras a rule, regardless of fitness of men or measures) are counted by thousands. While there are vast numbers who make good citizens so far as sobriety and industry go, they can afford to wait two years for all the rights men have who are born here and who have spent their lives in building up and supporting a government where the aliens find liberty and protection when they first land; aliens who own no property here, pay no taxes, do no military duty, serve no master, etc., can on two years probation be admitted to equality with all privileges and powers which a life long resident has, by making a declaration of intention and assertion that they have not been convicted of crime. Two years' probation is a small price to pay for so valuable a right. No other nation grunts it Now. I ask no man or party to be bound by my opinion or action or assertion; but

the man who, as a legislator, is canea upon to use his judgment in a matter of vital import to the state and the nation and will not advocate what he honestly believes is riht, regardless of party or popular prejudice or persoml considerations, is unpt for his place, is a coward in office and aids in hiding truth and enables fallacy to triumph for the time being. At least such is my opinion and by my own judgment I must be guided. No man should he condemned for an honst expression of opinion; and when it is founded on and supported by incontrovertible fact he can not be condemned by those who regird facta. I should a--k no hearing, Mr. Editor, for myself; I care-nothing for misrepresentation. When the truth is discovered it should be given to the world and leave it to work its own way. He who foars the truth lacks the true courage that belongs to the high minded citizen. The trite adage that "the truth should not be spoken at all times" has no application here. "Bur." it is said, "it will injure the party." What I really said was all right in tbeorj', and is needed in practice, but it is misrepresented and will injure the party. A party which can not bear the searching light of truth can accomplish no good or permanent results. A party which can not so live, declare and act, as to rise superior to detraction and the misrepresentation of its enemies, or its cowardly friend, can not be hurt, for it haa not the vitality which admits of injury. The republican party leaders are afraid of truth, and through the cowardice of democrats have succeeded in making concealment available for apparent and temporary triumph, but it is a barren victory. The'very fruits of concealment will breed incurable pestilence in that party. Its organization will be tonsumed in the fires which will be fanned to flame by the very truth they have sought to conceal. The very life blood of the democracy has been adherence to truth Its vitality and virility have been the outgrowth of the principles of its great founder, Thomas Jefferson. He gtve us the test for official preferment. "Is he honest, is he capable?" He told us to guardtheelectivefranchi.se and hold high the pride and dignity of citizenship; and through a long, useful and patriotic life set us a tai y example. He concealed no truth for fear it would "injure the party." When Tilden hurled the corrupt democratic judges from the bench in New York; when he and O'Conor broke down the Tweed cons;-ira'"y ; when h made the Syracuse convention give him a republican comptroller to enable him to crush tlie thieving canal ring; when he procured Robinson's nomination for governor lie did tint stop to ask ''Willitinjurcthe party?" He only said, "It is right; these ends are necessa-v and these means are necessary to that end' From Abel to Moses, from Mosea to Christ. from Chrit to the innovators of to-dny, the same cry has been raised; all pioneers have een condemned as fanatics, and tUe least ald was that they were indiscreet. Even Daniel Boone, Lewis and Clark, and Father Hennepin were called indiscreet; so were Washington and Putnam and Wayne; so has every man been who stepped boldly out and declared what be believed to be right and sought to make it practical. The pioneer, generally, is sacrificed; but he can afford to be; because, but for hini there would be no progress and civilization would retro grad to barbarism. The democratic Dartv has not been and can nut b injured by the truth, and is above injury from misrepresentation of any of its members. The citizen who desires to fraternize with the semi barbarian of the old world and ask or admit him to aid in government here, let him advocate it, I want only the pro gressive white race when I admit foreigners to the h'eh and priceless rights of American citizenship. Let him who desires to open his doorseven to hi anc tum and bed-chamber to every vagrant and tramp who may be vom ited from all the purlieus of crime and vice in the old world onto our shores imme diately on his arrival, promulgate it. I want none who do not say, when they ask for the ballot. "I am honest, and no vagrant or criminal; I have been with you and of you Tor a year, and can nhow my good conduct' I have been in your nation two years, and have behaved wdl, and I renounce my allegiance to foreign rulers, and will fraternize with your ieoile." Then, and not till then. am I willing he hall have equal rights with me in the selection of rulers. As a matter of fact this is the real sentiment of the great mass of intelligent and thinking voter, and the indiscretion exists in the fear to proclaim and act upon it. The overwhelming and damning evidence la glaring upon us like writing in fire, that we dare not do it for fear of this very for eign elemen' we have taken to our bo-orns. lest it turn and ihnist ua from our own heritage an t hsrthttones. It is time for pioneers to plunge into this

wilderness and ojwn the way to a. higher plane of citizenship before we ourselves be

come aliens in our own l;tnd. as the Saxons became before the invasion of the (ioths and Romans became on the irruption of the Vandals. In closing, I repeat: I am no advocate of "know-nothingism." I am willing to give foreigners the elective franchise, but I want it iveti after reasonable probation to those who will realize and appreciate its valnesmd use it to aid in the preservation of tins land ns a home for civil and religious libertv. This is the, substance of what I said on the floor of the senate in supjort of the amend ment I desired, and this I repeat with emphasis. "An eye for an eye. a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a Land, a foot lor a foot, stripes for stripes, wound for wound,'" was God's declaration of tact through Moses to the Israelites. It conies with space, matter and force. Nothing in the universe escapes iL an we create or form for ourselves an exception? If we sow weakne-s shall we reap strength? If we make vicious electors shall the elected be pure? If it takes honesty and wisdom to make pood laws shall we get pood laws by making ignorant and vicious instruments to select the lawmakers? If the government is one of law otd, rd in its imperfections it tolerates ignorant and vicious electors born 'hre, shall we limit or restrain or decrease the ignorance and vice by adding that which conies from foreign lands? If diligence and watching alone can exclude the chaffand so make the wheat available for us?, shall we get the wheat by adding more chaff? Who üi t Kltn-1 o a tit arrrttA arroi ncif Ii n v?j1I i no furt ' ii i na no i' m fx'iv- aitiiiot v v r uvit Who so w eak as to believe in sincerity that vicious elements, acting for selfish ends, shall, will or can accomplish public good? Let such heresies die! The democratic party can not recognize them. Confusion to the coward who dare not denounce them. Ulti mate success and triumph await those who battle for the right, however contumely and humiliation may for a time seem to bury them from sight." As I have remarked on former occasions, "Fact knocks the brainä out of romance whenever they come in contact, and conscious intelligence and obstinate ignorance are alike insensible to the shafts of ridicule, the criticisms of the cynic, or the slanders of the time-server and demagogue. "Tnith crushed toeartli will rise again; The eternal yean of tiod ar hers." C. II. Reevk. Imhanapoli, Feb. 17. THE STATE. Dearborn county is infested with highwaymen. Howard county gave $C14.S0 to the Centennial fund. There is some talk of Muncie having a real poultry show ia March. A party of S mth Benders left for southern Kansas Monday evening. An Arkansas prospecting party left Columbus on Monday night last. Euchre pirties have assumed the form of an epidemic iu Monticello. Iagrange Standard: It is reported that five persons died of diphtheria at suurgis on Monday. Scarlet fever is prevailing to an alarming extent in Nile, but there are few fatal casta. Logansport can't keep up a daily paper, but it is bound to have a conservatory of music. Quite a number of the citizens of Salem are talking of immigrating to the Black Hills this spring. The Auburn Courier says insurance agents of that place have been ktpt bu?y since the tires of last week. Crawfordsville has a boy who kills two rats per day. He might furniah meat tor a large Chinese family. Nearly 200 names have been added to the church list at Auburn as the result of the winter's revival there. Noblesville Independent: The new railroad running through Carmcl and Jollietville is being surveyed. Prinoeton Clarion: Counterfeit fives and tens on the banks of Richmond, Lafayette and Muncie are in circulation.

One hundred and thirty persons have become members of the different churches during the past two weeks in Warrington. Bedford Binner: The maple trees in front o' the Bedford National bank are in full bloruu. Something unusual for this time of year. Fort Wayne pickpockets attend church and ply their vocation while there. There is iiothing like combining business with pleasure. A young lady in Bartholomew county, Crosse! in love, took arsenic the other dar, and has been lingering on the verge of death ever since. Monticello Herald: Ho far as we can learn, tlie wheat has been seriously injured in this county this winter, and the probabilities are good for a large crop.
