houses In every city and town, have been for
the most part great nuisasces, damaging alike
TO health and morals Hence the preventive
measures now in operation in London deserve
general imitation. The power to inspect the
lodging houses OF the metropolis is placed in
the possession OF the authorities of the various
Parocniai districts by the Sanitary act OF 1860.
Each person who lets a house. whole or in
part, in which more than one family lives, or
where more than two people occupy one
room, must be placed upon a register at the
office Of the District Board Of Works, and fsur
hundred cubic feet of space Will be secured to
each inmate. The ceilings and walls Of all
rooms must be cleansed and whitewashed four
times year. The cistern Of the house must
be capable Of supplying fifteen gallons per day

out every week, and the drainage made per-

to inspect the premises, and penalties can be

Veto of the Tenure of Office Riu

The President, in his message stating his
objection TO the tenure Of Office bill. ouotes
the first section of the same as qualified by the
fourth, and says
"ln effect the bill provides that the Presi
oeh. snaII not remove from their places any
OF the civil officers whose term of Office has
not expired by law, without the advice and
consent OF the Senate of the United States The
blii In this respect conflets, in my judgment,
with the Constitution of the United States
The qUestlon,as Congress is well aware is by IN
means new one. That the power of removal
Is consutatlonally vested IN the President
OF the United States as principle which has
not been more distinctly declared by judicial
authority and Judicial commen tators than il
has been uniformly practiced upon by the
ieglsiallve ana executive departments Of the
Government" He then proceeds TO review
at length the argument in Congress on the
subject in 17e9, when the bill for esta blish
ing department OF Foreign Affairs was
under consideration, and says:-"The question
thus ably and exclusively argHed was de.
cided by the House Of Represen tatiyes nv
thrty-four TO twenty IN favor OF the principle
tDat the executive power of reno val is vested
by the Constitution in the Executive, and in
President" NV
He then reviews the action Of the Supreme
Court bearing on the same subject, and SAWS:
The words of the act establishing the Treas
ury Department are, land whene yer the same
shall be removed from office by the Presid mt
OF the United States, or i'm any other case Of
vacancy in office, the assistant shall act -
This amounted TO a legislature construction of
the Constitution, and 1t has ever since been
acqulesced in and acted upon as decisive au.
thority in the case. 1t applies equally to
every omcer OF the Government appoin ted by
the President. whose term Of duration is not
specially declared. 1t is supported by the
weighfy reason that the subordinate offic GERS i'm
the Executive Department ought to hold at
the pleasure Of the head of the Department, be-
cause he Is invested generally with the exec.
naye authority. ana the participation in that
authority by the Senate was an exception to a
general principle, and ought to be taken
strictly The President is the great responsi
ole omcer for the execution Of the law, and the
power of removal was incidental to that duty.
