V no AF THE DELLS BILL.


-
! The Governors Veto Of the Dells Bill
may be found in this issue of the TELE
GRAPH. The Governor does not base is
veto on the merits of the bill, but on his
belief that bribery aud corruption had
been used to secure the passage OF the
bill, and his objection TO one of the cor
porators whom he says was proved, and
admitted it himself, to nave offered a
bride to a member Of the Legislature to
secure his vote for the bill The Govern
or states his objections very clearly and
forcibly in his message, and to that we
refer our readers. The Governors OBJ
jections are insuperable to him. But to
others they are not quite SO clear. There
are two sides to the question. To the
side opposedto the veto, it may be doubt
full whether the Governor has complied
with the requirements of the constitution,
aud whether he has not availed himself
OF the veto to make charges or ;nsinua-
tions of bribery and corruption against
members of the Legislature to he entered
on the journal of the Assembly, which
he had no right to make. The Constitu-
ton says: Every bill which shall have
passed the legislature shall, before it be-
comes law, be presented to the govern
or IF he approve, he shall sign it if
not, he shall return it, with hisIobj ections,
to that house In which it shall have orig
mated" If he approve, he shall sign it.
Approve what? The bill itself? Or
the means used to secure its passage; the
politics and religion, the complexion and
color Of hair and eyes, the make and
build, the nationality and race, of the
members of the Legislature The Gov
.ernor says Il make no objections to the
bill in regard to its merits" Query-Are
any other objections except to the merits
Of the bill, objections within the mean
ing of the constitution ? If they are not,
the Governor has failed to comply with
the requirements Of the constitution For
he has neither signed the bill nor return
ed it with his objections within the mean
ing Of the constitution. And, if he has
returned the bill with objections outside
of the constitution, the requirement to
enter the objections on the journal is
scarcely obligatory.
AS the Governor makes no objections
as regards the merits Of the bill, we will
say nothing Of the merits of the bill. We
will say this however The Dells contro-
versy has been before the Legislature for
three successive years, and it is said to
have cost the state 100000 After the
passage of the BILL the people were con
graduating themselves that, hereafter,
the controversy would be taken from the
Legislature to the Courts, and would
have to be carried on at the expense of
the parties. Just at this time, veto
outside Of the merits of the bill, and on
side issues, brings the controversy again
before the Legislature A veto, under
such circumstances, and of such a nature
requires and should receive thorough and
impartial examination in all its aspects
and bearings.

Low AND H1GH DUrcH-1o the
Editors Of the Eoenjng Post:
Allow me, through your medium, to
explain to the New Highlander the diff
ference between Low and High Dutch
Low Dutch (Nederduitsch) is the
language spoken by the natives of the
seven provinces called the Netherlands,
better known TO Americans as natives Of
Holland rI
High Dutch (Hocgduitsch), so-called
by the Netherlanders, is the language
spoken in Germany.
Boor, or, more correct, boer, is Dutch !;
translated into English it means farmer.
The assertion made by the New En-.
glander that there are no descendants to
be found in this country of the Low Dutch
is groundless.
If the young New England philosophic-
puritanic descendant will look into the
New York City Directory and will only
sum up names like the following Van
derbilt, Van Hauten, &c, he will find a
host of Low Dutch descendants, or more

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
ON THE CONDITION OF THE SOUTH

To the Senate and Hoase of Representatives.:
A condition of affairs now exists in some
of the States of the Union, rendering life
and property insecure, and the carrying
of mails and collection Of revenue dan
gerous The proof that such a state Of
affairs exists In some localities is how be-
fore the Senate. That the powers to cor
rect these evils is beyond the control of
the State authorities, do not doubt !;
but that the power of the executive of
the United States, acting within the linn
its Of existing laws, is sufficient for the
present emergency, is not clear. There
fore, | urgently recommend such legisla-
ton as in the judgment of Congress shall
effectuaily secure life, liberty and proper
ty in all parts of the United States. It
may be expedient to provide that such
law as shall be passedin pursuance of this
recommendation shall expire at the end
of the next session of Congress. There
is no other subject upon which would
recommend legislation during the pres.
ent session. U. S. GRANT.
