EXECUTIVE RESPONSIBILITY AND DIS.
CBETION.

Without reference to the past legisla-
ton in regard to this work Of improve
ment. we are required to express an opin-
ion upon the propriety Of the executive
giving his signature to certain bonds
which the law orders him to issue and
deliver to the president Of that company.
In this act as the Governor has no re-
sponsibility for the law SO he has no right
to disobey its mandates. We do not be-
long to that higher or lower law school
which maintains that an officer can not be
required to execute. or citizen to obey
any law deemed by either unlawful or inn
moral. This doctrine the REPUBLICAN has
persistently maintained throughout all
the anti-tax riots and resistance. The
executive finds his sole warrant in the
law. He has no discretion except to obey
its commands, and no responsibility for
obeying its literal order as in this case.
1t is useless to waste paper in showing
what would be the consequences to society
if the executive possessed discretion to
defeat q law by declining to put it in force
We are told that the courts can not
compel Governor by mandamus to do
an executive act. That may be. but
clear headed or conscientious Governor
would not make any such want of COM
pulsory power an excuse for falling to
perform his duty.
Let not Governors nor those who de-
fend their derelictions. take comfort from
the assumed incapacity Of the courts to
compel obedience. There is an ample
power Of complsion impending over an
executive who would defeat the rep
will by personal inaction.
It is written that any person may
accuse public officer before the
Legislature, by setting forth charges
If malversation or malfeasance in office !
md filing list of witnesses in the matter.
While, then. the courts may not exercise
New Orleans Republican., 1873-06-21

the power of mandamus, any one deeming
the executive derelict in failing to give
effect to law can exhibit charges before
the representatives Of the people. and
their judgment may remove from office
and dis9ualify from holding any Office Of
profit or trust in the State. This is a
penalty far more serious than mandamus
1t has power Of official paralysis which
has been recently exhibited before our
people. We should not deem it politi-
cally healthy for an executive to incur or
encounter it. We apprehend that Gov
ernor Kellogg finds warran. Of law for
issuing and delivering these bonds. and it
is only an evidence of his extreme pru-
dence that be asked any legal advice
where the order Of law was SO plain and
SO positive,

contradiction to argue that North Cuba

but this paradox is correct. The
United States even recognized the indie

fore Spain herself would acknowledge that
a war had ended in which no hostile gun

period approaches when the government
OF the United States may pursue similar
course toward the State of North Cuba.
The Indifference of tina. State toward for

her ability to sustain herself. We hope
our Department Of State will deliberate
upon this new phase of the belligerency
and independence Of the State of North
Cuba. In recognizing either the one or

wAERHA., 1t appears from information received
from the Auditors Office ard from other sources,
that many just claims exist against the State,
which .!Eder article l3s Of the constitution can
not b paid for want of appropriations, which cases
are Justly entitled to legislative relief; and
Whereas, On the other hand many fraudulent,
or at least, improper claims, have been in previous
years hurriedly passed upon and provided for IN
various general appropriation bills; and
Whereas, While il is but Just that all legitimate
claims should be promptly lquidated, it is equally
essential that claims of every description should
be carefully scy.t nized before being passed upon
and
Whereas. The law axes it the duty Of the Au-
ditor TO Investigate uniquidated claims against
the St ate and make recommendations concerning
the sa NE to the Legislature;
Now, therefore in order to arrive at the true
merits OF such outstanding claims and to enable
the Auditor to make the proper recommendations
IL such cases, favoriug those which are just and
rejecting those which are fraudulent, parties hav
ing claims against the State on which they desire
legislative action are hereby requested to forward
them to the Auditor together with such vouchers
and proofs as viii enable that officer to ascertain
the merits OF the same; and claim will receive
the executive approval unless they have been pre-
sented and passed upo: IN the manner herein ind.
