A NEW ELECTION LAW.
Wilt Ropwllflhc Ibo-oil's Ill] Pm-
vidu For.
Wasnrsoros, May 9. — qurmentative
Howell (ills) has introduced in the home
his national election bill which he was in-
structed by the house caucus committee on
elections to prepare for presentation to the
committee. The committee instructed My;
Bowel] and Mr. Lodge (Mass) to prep-re
bills embodying the theories of each car»
earning a federal election law. Mr. Rowen
introduced his bill in the bones before sub-
mitting it for the action of the mucus com-
mittee in order that it might be printed
and placed in convenient form for exemiu
lion by the members.
Mr. Rom-it's bill does not propose a new
federal election law, but aims to improve
the present system of federal supervision
of elections, as provided for in the super-
visors’ law of loll. Mr. Rowcll took the
lion! bill as a Innis, but he makes the
visions of his hill mon- radical. The bill
changes the present method of appointing
federal supervisors of elections. By the bill
there are to be appointed and commissioned
double the number of supervisors required,
no as to have a sufficient number of super-
viaors ready for duty in case their services
are required The number of supervisors
serving at each election in incmml from
two to three. Under the lime!“ low, it is
chimed, supervisors of elections have little
it my power in the cotmtry dim-lets, while
thou in the cities have pon'cr to count the
ballots and make any investigation and in-
spection that they only see fit.
