SMALL. THE SWORD SUPPRESS THE
oAAnA rTVIT, LAWf

Under this head the Chicago Tribune,
one of the oldest and most influential
Republican papers in the Union, makes
strong protest against the military
despotism bill. 1t says:
Have the American people so retro
Graded in intelligence and respect Tor
the law, that it is necessary to set aside
the Constitution and the statute book,
the executive, judicial and municipal
officers of the people, and TO provide
that the President, at any moment, upon
his own motion and at his own dlscre-
ton. may enter any State, declare mar
tial law, suspend civil authority, and
make military commander sole arblter
in all matters Of life, property and lib
erty? Has popular government SO tar
proved failure that, in the most pro-
found peace, when there Ia not in all the
broad land an organized force opposing
the Federal laws, or questioning Federal
authority, the Congress OF the United
States should provide for military des-
potism to take the place of the govern
ment chosen by the popular will and
existing by the popular consent? What
il there in the condition Of the State OF
illinois which justi6es the suspicion OF
such intolerable anarchy and warrants
the substitution of armed for the civil
law? Yet both houses Of Congress have
passed just such a bill, and are only
divided as to some of the details. Both
houses have agreed to place in the hands
of the President this unexampled power,
wholly unwarranted by the Constitution,
and only defensible upon the plea that
free government is failure, that popu,
lar intelligence has been perverted, and
that to the army is to be committed the
task Of averting general anarchy.

The St. Louis gamblers, in view of a

Ir is stated that the Texas Legislature
has just adopted common school sys-
TEN for that State in which compulsory
education IS a prominent feature. A
terra Of schooling not less than four
months in each year is required of AL
the scholastic population" The school
directors Of the several districts may
separate the blacks and whites, if in
their judgment the peace and success
of the school and the good of the whole
may require" or they may require the
attendance of blacks and whites in the
sama school. The experiment of com
pulsory education and mixed schools
will, therefore, be inausaraied by Texas.
We have no hesitation in predicting its
failure.
