The President and the Rioters.

The Louisiana Convention was composed of
the very class of men with whom Andrew
johnson was associated during the war. The
present State government of Tennessee is his
creation. He excluded rebels from all particle
patton in its formation by the application Of a
rigid test oath and the use of military force
The convention of 1854 met the other day in
New Orleans, at the call of its chairman
Whether that body had any legal powers or
not, its members had a right to assemble and
confer together. Yet it is Andrew johnson,
who two years ago would have been member
of that convention, if he had been citizen of
Louisiana, who now telegraphs to Gov. Wells
inquiring by what authority that convention
assumes to reprerent the State of Louisiana"
and puts the military force of the department
at the disposal of the men who contrived the
riot of last Monday.
The people of the Northern States are yerv
rapidly coming to the belief that policy that
bears such fruits is no longer to be trusted.
The authority" of the convention has moth
ing to do with the matter. When the Demo
cratic State Committee of 1860 assembled in
Richmond the other day, to provide for the
representation Of Virginia in the Philadelphia
convention, the question of authority does
not appear to have disturbed the Presidents
much-refecting mind. Had these Union men
of louisiana right to assemble and deIber-
The President OF the United States, to our

onr streets.

The communication signed <, which APP
pears in another column, is timely and val
main question which now concerns the peo-'
nile OF Portland. Its statements may be re,
ceiyed as authoritative with regard to the legal
points considered, and will derive additional
weight from the candor with which they are
presented The facts brought forward by TINS
communication are two. l. The unanimous
decision of the courts has been, that no au-
thority can be conferred upon any munlclpail-
ty to take foot of land that is not absolute
ly needed for public USE 2. Recent iegisla-
ton of Massachusetts,, not fully tested in the
courts, undertakes to allow one-haf the esd
mated benefit arising from improvements W
be charged to the parties who enjoy the bene-
fit.
Probably neither of these facts will be found
to bear SO directly upon Nh. Coolers asser-
ton, as x supposes. AS we understand The
matter, the city of Portland has now no title
to the streets actually in use. Ii street
should be closed the dormant tit.e of the
landholders on either side Immediately re-
wives. 1t is possible that this point is includ-
ed in the decision quoted by X, though he
does not say so. That is legal matter, upon
which no unprofessional opinion is worth
straw. But Ii this point is rot included, II
the legislature is competent to authorize the
city government to take AND HOLD such
land as is needed for public use, it is plain
that compensation for which \ MAKES no
allowance, would inevitably follow. For IN /.
stance, if the city actually owned Middle
street, instead or merely occupying it, it would
be possible in carrying out Mr.. Goodelfs sug-
gestion, to continue Spring street to Exchange,
and closing Middle street above tho postofice
to offset the land damages, partially at least
by the sale of lots thus left vacant.
We do not intend to argue the question.
but to point out to X a difficulty in the appli-
cation of his legal principles, which will pro-
badly be felt by many OF his unlearned read
crs. Meanwhile, as Mr.. Goodelfs staten e 1T
has at last been definitely contTadcted, we
think he public have right to ask Of him
the facts upon which it was based.

Whether he was aware OF the particular

that Davis was privy to the plot. These per

improvements in Boston.

- s44ss... t. tra. NEW YORK, Aug. ], 1906. 1
To THE EDITOR or tie PRESS: s'
While walking through Devonshire street
Boston, yesterday, Portland and its talked-oi
improvements came into my mind.
That partof Devonshire street running from
Franklin to Milk street was formerly Theatre
Alley" Now it is a wide street, filed with
irst-class granite buildings, all of which are
occupied by large mercantile firms, and the
street extends from State to Summer street
A ,oa,,horxac- +l---e---~-.f. ek~---G-R ardson
.. - informed me that the city government,
at the time of widening and extending, took
the land required and paid the owner accord
ing to benefit rec,ived or damage sustained
Without that improvement Boston would not
now have her noble Devonshire street, but she
would have her Theatre Alley, with its wood
en- shanties, occupied by "Marm Dunlap's
snuff shop" dram shops, and such like insti
tutiOns. .-H1sa 4e gl-a csf i-ss
Feeling an interest in the present and future
prosperity of my native city, 1 trust that her
government will follow the good example of
officers in other cities, and make all necessary
improvements in the way of widening and ex-
tending business streets, and also those which
are destined to become such. a ii
