IN SENATE.

The reader will recOllect that The VICE
PRESIDENT gave the casting vote, a few
days ago. against the motion TO strike out
of The Military Appropriation Bill The
specific appropriation of $4,000, for ex-
ira work ofsoldiers on public roads. The
following is "A sketch of the remarks with
which he prefaccd his vote OH that occa-
sion
II the clause proposed 10 be expung-
ed, embraced the constitutional question,
which has been made the subject of dis
cussion in tie committee. should deem
this decision of great responsibility and
importance. But | do not perceive that
this, orany other constitutional principle,
is involved in the clause under considera-
ton. 1t imparts no new powers, nor
gives any definite directions, TO the Exc
cuiive Department of The government,
with regard TO fatigue duty of the army
or military roads but merely appropri-
ates Ten thousand dollars To pay Tie nom
commissioned officers and privates OF the
army for that poriionoi their labor which
may be performed on military roads in
1919. The proper Department will, of
course, be governed III the expenditure of
that sum by a Just construction of the
clause, with reference ia the objects of
the bill, 10 the constitution Of the United
States aud 20 the provisions of previously
existing laws.
Even, if the opinion were tenable,
that no antecedent lawshave vested the
President OF The United States with dis
creliOn of devoling part Of The fatigue
duty Of the army, or ~ appropriations for
the Quartermasicr'S department, to the
formation or repair OF military roads, this
clause would be unobleciiondble and
harmless because no lawful application
OF the money, granted by it, coHld take
place until, further legislative provision
Should be made OF the subject.
Without insisting on the consiiiu-
iional prerogatiyes of the President OF the
United States, as commander in chief of
the army and navy, or upon the express
powers 90 make public roads through In
dian territory dud elsewhere, frequently
granted by Congress; the Legislature OF
tie nation has repeatedly conferred the
authority OF applying The labor Of tie ar
my and general appropriations to the OBJ
iecis contemplated in this So ton for,
when they give 10 the Executive plenary
powers To effect any certain and legal
public object, the right TO employ all law
fui means 10 accomplish that object is ne
cessarlly implied and conferred. Thus,
