Harpsr's Weekly ON Back Pay.


Haper's Weekly is well known as one
Of the staunchest Of Republican journals.
II is Pharisee Of the Pharisees in Radi-
cnlism, and yet it rebukes President Grant
for not vetoing the back salary grab. It
conceals the fact, however, that 1t was the
'srider' which carried the scheme to double
his own pay. Congress had refused to in
crease the Presidents salary, buswhen the
President friends added the bride Of back
pay and increased pay for Congressman,
the bill to increase Grants salary went
through. This was the price which, by
the help Of venal Congressman, the Presi-
dent made the country pay for his chance
70 get 100000. Ha,Per's Weekly says
''The President should have said distinctly
that the amendment-the "baek grabn-was
an offence that he could not sanction; that he
would not be coerced to authorize a plain
wrong by the alleged necessity Of passing the
appropriations and that the responsibility of
an extra session must fall upon those who
made il necessary.
Had the President said this IN his usual
plain manner il would not only have been
right, but it would have been the most popu-
lar act of his administration. II would have
shown The country that he was not confused
b. plausible sophistries, and that he not only
saw clearly what should be done, but that be
had the eouraze frmlyto doit. The fact that
his veto would have made an increase Of his
