The Holt County sentinel., 1871-11-17
CONFLICT OF AUTHORITY.

The Governor of Illinois, j. NJ. Pal
mer, has written a long letter TO the
Attorney-G General Of the State, repre-
senting that the temporary military or
ganization, by which the peace and
safety Of Chicago was protected from
robbers aud incondiaries, during the ex-
element that followed tho great fre,
was an unlawful thing, and that the un.
fortunate death of r. w. Grosvcnor,
which resulted from the mistake of one
Of the young men In the service, should
be Investigated, aud the guilty parties
punished. The blame will fall about
equally on tho Mayor Of the city and
Lieutenant-G General z. II. Sheridan.
That they assumed extraordinary pow
ers for an extraordinary emergency, is
not TO be questioned. The letter Of the
law would have directed the Mayor TO
the Governor Of tho State for military
aid. But the Governor was not there,
aud the Lieutenant General was. and no
time was to be lost with fred.tape. 4"
All deplorc the loss Of life, and regret
the indiscreet zeal Of the young man
who thought he was doing bis duty.
But we doubt whether Gov. Palmer
will increase his fame or his usefulness
by pressing this matter to legal inves.
tigation,
