The Safety of the Republic Lies in the Purity of the Ballot. Speech of Hon. William P. Frye, of Maine. In the House of Representatives, April 23, 1879
Frye, William P.
/ Washngton: 1879
first edition; 16 pp, light general age toning and two soft horizontal fold marks but overall very good in self wrappers; concerns the repeal of the Force Acts, a rider on a current appropriations bill, Frye tries to redirect attention from their application in the South to New York City elections where there is a "great army of vagrants, criminals, depraved and desperate men" not to mention all the ignorant immigrants, what will stop them from being "dupes of designing and wicked politicians".
