Taft Circular Threatens States Rights and Elections
A reform era letter from Attorney General Taft urges federal marshals to oversee elections, warning of a centralized power that could override state sovereignty. The document explains marshal authority, special deputies, and military aid, urging vigilance to maintain the peace during voting while citing Supreme Court judgments. The piece critiques the move as a dangerous step toward despotism and imposes strong national control over local electoral processes.
