TROOPS AT CHICAGO,

Governor Palmer, of Illinois, lifelong
Republican and Il statesman of acknowl-
edged ability, is just now engaged in
controversy which concerns the people a
great deal, but which does not seem to
pay him in public applause to any very
great extent. During the confusion Incl
dent to the fire in Chicago the mayor of
the city. being timid man, solicited as
sistance from General Sheridan in main
tanning order. The request was more than
complied WITH for General Sheridan not
only consented to assist in regulating the
great confusion that necessarily prevailed,
but he actually put the city under martial
law and assumed command of the belea-
guered corporation. Governor Palmer
sent detachment of militia to assist in
preserving order and Sheridan put him
self so much in command Of this military
reinforcement that high law officer of
the State was killed by these militiamen
under his orders
Governor Palmer resented this uslrpa-
patton of authority as being dangerous to
public liberty, and as having been I'M
necessary and unauthorized This is one
of hi, controversies, and while the I'M
thinking masses are excusing the act of
General Sheridan be cause it did no par
ticulac harm, the rejecting portion of the
people are suggesting to themselves that
probably Governor Palmer did right in
resenting an act which at once overthrow
the civil law. and was so much at variance
with American ideas of self-government.
Another controversy that has grown out
OF til, extraordinary transaction is the
still more recent protest of the same
official against the concentration of a large
military force at Chicago for the purpose,
as General Sheridan intimates. Of pre-
serving the public peace in the event the
!aborers in certain private works strike
for,higher wages. Governor Palmer insists
that thi, is an insult to the local autLori-
ties. since it intimates that they are in
competent or unwilling to protect the
public from violence, and the people from
wrong.
The national troops are now wanted on
the plains to protect the frontier from
savases; but in place of being sent to
fulfill their proper duties, they are held
in the cities to act the uncalled for part of
policemen. 1t would only be in accord
ance with the teachings of all history if |
the masses who applauded General Sheri-
dan for violating their liberties should
now feel the effect in being shot down
IN tie interest Of the capitalists who con-
tend that they have no right to strike.
There is one thing that poor people
ought to learn first and remember long
est that every violation Of law by public
officials is blow aimed at them. The
masses are only protected in their rights
oy the spirit of Justice. which is the es-
'ence Of all law. Money defend, itself
whether the condition OF society is good
II bad, for it buys protection from the
corrupt and is awarded hearing and a
Judgment by justice. SO Governor
Palmer is right in all his positions, and
1eneral sheridan is all wrong.

We are at present, all men discussing
the best interests of all, rather than to be

pulling each other to pieces, one race

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

Our ADVERTISING COLUMNS AND THE SUM-
MRR TgADE.-Our advertisements from day
10 day reveal the wondrous activity which
prevails 10 business circles. The quadrnple
sheet is becoming with us an almost daily
necessity 1t is no longer doubtful that the
public OF New York and neighboring cities
have become fully alive to the value of the
HERALD as a simple, direct and effective
medium for th transaction of business. 1t is
quite manifest, from the character and number
of our advertisements, that the prospect is good
for rafting summer trade. The war in
Europe has created wants which Europe can
not supply. The unsettled state of things in
France is certain to multiply largely the num-
Der of French immigrants. The reports of the
late peace dem onstration in New York have so
filled the German mind with the New World
across the seas, where all their cousins are
rich, that the German immigration this year
will almost TO a certainty be larger than ever.
Swedish immigration also promises to be large.
All things considered, the coming summer is
full of business promise.

PRESIDENT GRANT arrived in st. Louis yes
ter5ay. On Saturday night be was in Indian
apol;s, where hearty reception was given
him by the citizens, at which Senator Morton,
in speech Of some length, announced
The republican platform for 1872. The pre-
sence Of the chief Of the party at the opening
Of the campaign is usually encouraging in
the highest degree to the mass Of workers in
the party, besides being Indicative of deter
mination to make the best fight possible,
and we can confidently expect, therefore, that
President Grant, having already abandoned
the ST. Domingo issue, will be content in the
hearty and early prosecution of the campaign
TO forego some Of the other obnoxious issues
Of the republican party and shape the future
course Of his administration with view to the
harmony Of the party and the cordial endorse
ment Of the people.

POLICE NEGLIGENCE was exemplifed in
most extraordinary manner on Saturday morn
ing in the attempted burglary in Ninety second
street. The burglar was nabbed easily enough
by the owner of the premises in .fagrante
sieiictu, but the difficulty was to find police
man In that whole precinct to take charge Of
the ugly customer. Mr.. Heiscr got his ele-
phant, but he was in q bad fix to know what
70 do with him. Fortunately his cries for aid
reached the Twenty third precinct, three quar-
ters of a mile away, and two officers came
racing from Fifth avenue through Central
Park TO his assistance. Qiery-What were
the police on Eighth avenue doing about that
time?
