Congress has the power to modify, change and correct these regulations so far as may be necessary to make them consistent with the fundamental idea of a " republican form of government, " In view of the provisions of the Constitution already cited, and of Sections 2 and 4 of Article I. , we do not see how any other construction is admissible or possible. Certainly no other is consistent with the terms of the Constitution, its una- voidalDle implications, the necessities of the case, the debates... in the several Conventions which acted upon it, and the contemporaneous expositions of the Federalist. Sections 2 and 4 of Article I. , referred to above, are as follows : Art. I. Sec. 2. The House of Representatives shall be composed of members chosen every second year ly the people of the several States ; and the electors in each State shall have the qualifications requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the State Legislature. Art. I. Sec. 4. The times, places, and manner of holding elections for Senators and Representatives shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time, by law, make or alter such regulations, except as to the places of choosing Senators.
