The Remedy for Contempt.

simultaneously with the report Of the
treaty with Great Britain to the Senate,
the New York 7'ribune published the
document entire, its correspondents hav-
ing obtained cjpy in some manner and
telegraphed it from Washington. Deem.
ing this to have been breach of the pri-
yileges Of the Senate, as all treaties are
considered State secrets until ratified by
that body, the Senate made an investiga.
tion of the matter and the correspondents
of the Tribune were summoned before
committee, but they refused to say where
they got the treaty They frankly stated
however, that it was not obtained of any
officer of the Senate. Not satisfied with
this, the correspondents were brought
before the bar Of the Senate to answer for
contempt The vote granting the order
was AZ to Is. The correspondents stead
lily refused to answer and the Tribune
says they will not answer further, and that
if they are imprisoned their salaries will
be doubled.
While the dignity of the people may
require process of selfprotecton on the
part of courts and legislative bodies to Sc
cure the course of their proceedings from
disturbance, of any kind, while in the ex-
ercise of their allotted functions, and a
liberal discretionary authority for this
purpose is indispensable, it is practicable
that particular forms of such contempt
should be defined and made punishable
by law, and the discretion of the author
tiles concerned be confined simply to the
extent Of punishment within the law, to
be inflicted. An order of Court restrict.
ing from publication during the proceed.
ings ola criminal trial, if properly allow
able al all,may be definitely sanctioned by
law. If such an order is made, the pub
fishers of papers should take notice of it,
and under the form of law for such case
made and provided, all parties should
govern themselves accordingly. So,more
eminently, the proceedings in executive
sessions of branch of the national gov.
eminent should be protected by law. The
publication of such proceedings is pal
pable offense, not merely against the
dignity of the Senate, the most confident
ial department of the government, as re.
presenting the people in the states, but
against the public safety and the policy of
the nation in its intercourse with foreign
powers,or the delegation of official trust at
home.
As to what is done in executive sessions
in relation to treaties especially notice of
the order of secrecy is palpable to every
body till the preceding is complete and
the publication of the treaty is made, or
he injunction of secrecy is removed. A
law for the purpose of such protection of
the national policy in this matter would
seem to be the proper remedy, and the
people owe it to themselves not to permit
the professional emulation of the press to
pander to the indicretion of that portion
Of the public who are always unwilling to
regard the public safety as, in honor and
duty, the supreme law.
