“Dear Sir—4 notice the passage
through the House of publicity bill
20.112. which denotes sanity and pro-
gress of a certain kind. which. how-

to make If what Secretary 'I‘afi. will
doubtless write to you privately he

“flat I did not think it wise to em-
barrass a publicity bill by adding
there 0 a federal election bill. if this
must . Io done. It will he expedient to
re-ennct all the. old laws and enforce
them. To enforce the fourteuth
amendment In a way to abandon and
make obsolete the fifteenth amend~
ment would be unjust, to the colored
citizens. So if the election features
are to stay In bill 20.112. I advise the
addition of a clause repealing the act
of February 8, 1893, and re-enac lug
all the federal election statutes. hoe
