Il might call to mind, in advance of these
objections, that there is no immediate necessi-
Z ty for the proposed measure. The act to es-
tabllsh a bureau for the relief Of freedmen and
refugees, which was approved in the month of
March last, has not yet expired. 1t was thought
stringent and extensive enough for the pur-
pose In view in time of war;" -.,. ,-.. -,
Now, sir, when will that act expire, and what
was it? 1t provided in its first section: Is
"That there is hereby established in the War
Department, to continue during the present
war of rebellion and for one year thereafter, a
bureau of refugees, freedmen and abandoned
lands."o yif. ~. letl.5,l4I no LII
BY the terms of the act it was to continue
during the present war of rebellion and for
one year thereafter" Now, when did the war
of rebellion cease? So far as the conflict of
arms is concerned, we all admit that the war
of rebellion ceased when the last rebel army
laid down its arms, and that was sometime in
the month of May, when the last army in Tex
as surrendered to the Union forces, so that the
present bureau must, by its own limitation ex-
pire within one year from the time when the
war of rebellion ceased. / do not hold that
the consequences of the war are over. 1 do
not understand that peace is restored with all
its consequences. We have not yet escaped
from the evils inflicted by the war. Peace and
harmony are not yet restored, but the war of
rebellion is over, and this bureau must expire
in May next, according to the terms of the act
that was passed on the Sd of March, 1865, and
according to the views of the President, as ex-
pressed in his veto message.
The President says that that act "was
thought stringent and extensive enough for
the purpose in view in time of war;" WHY.
sir, what was the condition of the country
when that act passed in March, 1865? At
that time most Of the States where these freed
men are were under rebel control. The freed.
mems bureau at that time could only take iu.
risdiction of such freedmen and refugees as
came within the lines of the Union army. It
could exercise no jurisdiction throughout most
of the Southern States. 1t was limited in it's
operations; and desire to ask in all candor
and fairness ii, as the war progressed and the
and Florida and Georgia and Virginia and
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1866-03-12

there be appointed one commissioner and ten
assistant commissioners, and the amendatory
act which the President has vetoed authorized
the appointment of twelve assistant commits
sioners-two more than the present law. But
as to this division into sub-districts and the
appointment OF this innumerabe number of
agents, that have so alarmed the minds of SEN
ators, not one of them is to be appointed, by
the express terms Of the bill, unless it is to
carry out its operations; and who believes that
any such number would be necessary as one
in each county28 IF one in each county were
appointed under the bill, / undertake to say
that it would be most manifest abuse of the
discretion which the bill vests in the officers
who are to carry it into execution.
The President further says, in his veto mes
sage:
The subject over which this military juris-
diction is to extend in every part of the Unit
ed States, include protection to all EMPLOYEES,
agents and officers of this bureau in the exer-
else of the duties imposed upon them by the
bill. In eleven States it is further to extend
over all cases affecting freedmen and refugees
Disseminated against by local law, custom or
prejudice In those eleven States the bill
subjects any white person who may be charg-
ed with depriving freedman of any civil
rights or imnunities belonging to white per-
sons,' to Imprisonment or fine or both, with
out, however, defining the civil rights and i'm
munities which are thus to be secured to the
freedmen by military law. This military iu-
risdiction also extends to all questions that
may arise respecting contracts" A.el
After reading that most extraordinary state
ment in this veto message, what will be said
when 1 read from the bill itself that SO far
from extending this military jurisdiction over
all questions arising concerning contracts, and
SO far from extending military jurisdiction
anywhere, it is expressly provided by the very
terms Of the bill itself that no such jurisdic-
ton shall be exercised, except where the Pres
ident himself has established and is maintain
ing military jurisdiction, and the very moment
that he ceases to maintain military jurisdic-
ton, that very moment the military jurisdic-
ton conferred over freedmen by this act ceas-
es and terminates will read from the eighth
section of this bill, which is explicit upon this
point:
"The jurisdiction conferred by this and the
preceding section on the officers and agents of
this bureau shall cease and determine when
ever the discrimination on account of which
it is conferred ceases, and in no event to be ex-

~. Ai' 'aI'- Assistant Adj. General
There is an order issued within a week past,
the object of which is to stop the publication
of newspapers containing d;sloyal sentiments.
By what authority, if this be time of peace,
does the military exercise this authority? Can
we not confer that power, if the military can
properly exercise it at all on another branch of
the army? 1t is surprising to me that per-
sons in the daily exercise of the very powers
conferred by this amendment of the freedmen's
bureau should deny the authority of Congress
to pass the act. i'--' -e' ' .---"+
But, says the President, 'i.
u" The trials having their origin under this
bill are to take place without the Intervention
of ajury, and without any fixed rules of law
or evidence" ~ --
/ Do not all military trials take place in that
way? Did anybody ever hear of the present
ment of a grand jury in a case where court
martial sat for the trial Of military offense,
or the trial of person charged with any Of
Tense cognizable before it? Again: .'
sThe rules on which offenses are to be heard
and determined by the numerous agents are
such regulations as the President through the
War Department, shall prescribe. No preyi-
Gus presentment is required, nor any indict-
ment charging the commission of crime
against the laws: but the trial must proceed
on charges and specifications. The punish
ment will be-not what the law declares. but
such as a court-martial may think proper: aud
from these arbitrary tribunals there lies no APP
peal, no writ of error to any of the courts in
which the Constitution of the United States
vests exclusively the judicial power of the
country"
vet that is precisely what is every day being
done. and has been done for the last four wears
under the direct sanction of the President of
the United States. This freedmen's bureau
bill confers no authority to do this except in
those regions of country where military au-
thority prevails, where martial law is estab-
act in subordination to the military power, any
where the moment they transcend the proper
limits as fixed by military orders, they are liza

"That the Secretary of War may direct
such issues of provisions, clothing and fuel as
he may deem needful for the immediate and
temporary shelter and supply of destitute and
suffering refugees and freedmen, and their
wives and children, under such rules and reg
ulations as he may direct" -
That is the present law, enacted March Sd,
1865. Now, what is the third section of the
bill which the President says contains such an
unlimited grant of support to the destitute
and suffering refugees, their wives and chill
dren? / will read that third section:
"That the Secretary of War may direct
such issues of provisions and clothing, fuel -
and other supplies
"Including medical stores and transporta-
ton, and afford such aid, medical or otherwise,
as he may deem neeIful for the immediate and
temporary shelter and supply of destitute and
suffering refugees and freedmen, their wives
and children, under such rules and regulations
as he may direct: Prooided. That no per-
son shall be deemed destitute 'suffering,' or
dependent upon the Government for support
within the meaning of this act, who, being
able to find employment, could by proper in
dustry and eyertion avoid such restitution,
suffering or dependence"
This proviso is not in the original law
That authorizes the issuing of these supplies,
all except the medical supplies and the trans
portation. just the same as the bill which the
President has vetoed. Does he object to this
bill on the ground that it authorizes med
ical aid to be furnished the sick? Or, does he
objot TO it because of the proviso which lin
its its operation, and declares that nobody
shall be deemed destitute and suffering under
the provisions OF the act who is able oy proper
industry and exertion to avoid such destitu-
ton? Why, sir, it is limitation on the pres
ent existing law. Does that look much like
taking care of four million people-a provision
that expressly limits the operation of this act
to those only who cannot find employment?
A statement OF the fact is all that is necessary
to meet this statement in the veto message.
After commenting upon the third section
OF the bill, which have just read, the Presi-
dent says:
Succeeding sections make provision for the
rent or purchase of landed estates for freed
