''Barrett's" can't be beat
The Portland daily press., 1868-04-27

1T is fitting that we should keep our readers
fully informed in relation to the doings of
Democratic legislatures. Bodies of that kind
have been something of novelty in Northern
States for several years, and as they have been
highly recommended as first-class reformatory
and philanthropic organizations. Democratic
papers say that there is great demand for
them-the people cry for them. Take Calfor-
ma Tor instance. The San Jose Mercury says
1t may be the equal and exact justice eHpecteu
OF Democratic legislatures, to alio" constl6u-
tional Democrats to murder and rob China
men while the Orientals are forbidden to tes-
tifv in their own behalf. The California legis-
lature has also suspended the State geological
suryey. which was of incalculable value i'll de-
veloping the resources of the State. We also
find that under Democratic management the
public schools of San Francisco have ciosed
for want of funds. This is following the eS-
ample of the Maryland legislature which
promptly abolished the common school system
altogether The Ohio legislature has second
ed these efforts to make education odious, "
by DISTINGUISHING college students. 1t is esti-
mated that the number of persons affected by
this regulation will be about ten thousand.
The Democratic legislature of the Kingdom OF
New Jersey has also done few good things,
among them the enactment of laws repeating
the acts requiring the polls to be closed at
sunset and the registration of voters. The
laws repealed were intended to secure the pu-
rity of elections. We have previously given
the Democratic Assembly credit for some Of
its most important work.

HamIin and the Vice Presidency.

As further evidence of the very general feel
ing in all parts of the country in favor of Hon.
Hannibal Hamli1 for the Vice Presidency, We
copy the following editorial article from the
Burlington, VT, Daily Times:
The natural desire of the Chicago Conven-
ton will be TO give the Vice Presidency to the
East, since the West in Grant will secure the
first name upon the ticket. The Vice Presl-
dency legtimately falls TO New England. and
if she Will have the good sense to unanimously
present a candidate, there is no reason why
her claim will not meet with a prompt ac-
knOwledgmeat. Could New England do bet
ter than 70 urge the nomination OF Hannibal
II iml n of Maine. Mr.. Hamiin was shelved IN
1864 Tor reasons OF cheap, delu-ive political ex-
o, diency, unworthy any serious cons deration.
His patriotism and answering devotion TO
Republican principles have never been quts
toned, and IL would be graceful and at the
same time a wise act OF political Justice to t.
store Hannibal Hamlin to the Vice Presiden-
cy, and thus hOnorably atone for the severe
snubbing that an able aud faithful public ser
want has, through no dereliction OF his own.
received at the hands of party in moment
Of weakness when a fawning Difference for
small expediency held sway. Vermont might
easily do worse than TO support HANNIBAL
Hamln for the Vice Presidency.

The Portland daily press., 1868-04-27

The general verdict is that the argument of
Judge Nelson hurt his clients case. We
should say so. The sublimity of impudence
was never more successfully attained than in
the following sentences from report of his
speech: 8" He was willing to say that the
President, and he himself at least of the Pres-
dents counsel, believed that House from
which representatives of the South are exclud-
ed, is not legally capable of presenting articles
of impeachment, and that Senate with TWEEN
ty empty seats has no right a'ader the ConStitu-
ton to try him. But instead of resorting to
war to sustain these theories as he might have
done, the President had done nothing of mil
itary character and he ought to have the credit
for the forbearance." If the House is not a
legal body for the purpose of presenting arti-
Giles of impeachment and the Senate for try
ing the accused, then neither House ner SEN
ate is legal body for legislative business.
When man who is a near friend of the Presi-
dent and who comes from fresh consultation
with him makes as the mouthpiece of his eli
ent declarations SO Immediately subversive of
the constitution, it is time the President was
deprived of the power OF doing further hahn.
