The democratic party has reason to con-
graduate itself on the recent judgement of
the supreme court, declaring the military tr-
bunals which dominated over the public lib
critics during the war unconstitutional This
decision is both triumphant vindication of
the democratic party, and a happy augury
for the future. The supreme court is the
Thermopyla of the present contsst-the pass
is narrow, the defenders are few, but their
advantages of position are such that they can
arrest and turn back the advancing hosts
Their decieion ON a matter which was the
main topic of controversy between the demo
cratic party and it opponents during the war
is the final Judgment of the law, as it will be
the verdict of history, that the obloquy heap
cd upon democrats for their opposition to the
arbitrary exercise of authority, was undo.
