advantage to him. They were unreasonable
enough to expect him to administer, as pub
lie servant and in the interest Of the people,
an Office which was only given him as re-
ward. Others have found fault because he
has appointed his relations to office instead OF
competent and intelligent persons, as though
he was not expected to use the position which
q grateful people gave him, to make his family
comfortable. And some have even gone 80
far as to question the Presidents taste in ap-
pointing his brother to a first-rate place for
making money out of the Red Men of the
Forest. This, of course, is carrying it too far.

could not pay him for doing his duty in the
war. with anything less than the second place
in the army, with competency assured him

satisfied that if it had not been for him we
should have had no country, have been bur-

Of right, of course this cannot be objected TO.
He saved the country and it's not improper
that he should do as he pleases with It, Still,
there's vulgar prejudice in the minds of many,
otherwise intelligent persons, against turning
over so many people to military Governor
with unlimited powers. And some even of the
citizens of the States referred to are so insen-
sible to the obligations of common gratitude
AS to object to being turned over i'll this way
This, notwithstanding the admitted fact that
Sheridan would not think of hanging anybody
whom he did not dislike.

Mr.. CL4YTOH'S LITTLE Bill.

That eminent constitutional lawyer, the Hon.
Powell Clayton, has introduced into the
Senate bill to facilitate the operations of
the carpet-bag party i'll the Southern States,
and sweep away the frivolous objections
which are urged by pedantic and particular
persons to the manipulation of elections by
the military and the determination of disputed
titles to office by squad of soldiers. lie
calls it "Bill to Protect States against
Invasion" We do not know why he should
call it thai, unless for the same reason that
made fond father give his daughter the
name of Bet, because it sounded nice and was
easy to spell. The title has no particular con-
nec.i0n with the provisions of the BILL Mr..
Clayton, however, has perhaps heard that the
Federal Constitution somewhere declares that
the United States shall protect each State
against invasion, and he takes this accord
ingly as text from which, after the manner
of some preachers, he proceeds to get away as
fast and as far as possible. lie proposes
that "whomsoever" 1--WE give his own
exact and elegant language) shall invade any
estate for the purpose of violating the laws
"Of said State or of the United States, or for
90 the purpose of interfering in any manner
with the execution of said laws, or whomso-
"ever shall wilfully and cOrrupty conspire,
combine, and confederate with any other
"persOn for any of the purposes above indi-
"cated," shall be liable to prosecution for
felony and fine not exceeding $4,000, besides
Imprisonment not exceeding ten years. The
United States courts are to have jurisdiction
of such Offenses, and the President may
specially empower officers to institute proceed
,,o1or thorn The Federal (on
and their deputies are to make arrests; land
"all persons or officials authorized by this bill
"to execute warrants, &C., as aforesaid, shall
shave authority to call to their aid such
"portion of the land and naval forces of the
United States or Of the militia as may be
necessary" 1t will be seen, of course, that

4 DANGEROUS FRIEND.


The Editor of THE tribune was summoned
to Washington to give Committee of Con-
gress certain information which he had
never prOfessed to possess, and which they, with
unlimited command of persons and papers,
had not been able to obtain by the labor OF
weeks. He had never bribed Congressman
or associated in business or otherwise with
those who did; he had never been lob
byist OF an intimate of those who were
and consequently he was without personal
knowledge of the corruption they were inves-
tigating Therefore they examined him most
rigidly as to his personal knowledge. Against
his DESIRE and IN spite of his rem0nstrances,
he was forced by two members of the Com
mittee to mention their names as having
been connected, in the talk of the street
(Which on this, rs on every other topic Of
current interest, is constantly coming to an
editors ears), with the lobby operations by
which the Pacific Mail subsidy was obtained.
The names had never been mentioned or
limited at in his paper, and he had never said
that he believed the stOries but the Com
mittee insisted on dragging them out. Mr..
Dawes, whose name was thus forced into the
case by his own Committee, under his own
leadership, straghtway complained of this
compulsory repetition of current rumor
as at variance with a long-standing ac-
auantance. We would therefore prove the
remOrseess sincerity of the friendship he in
voked by specifying to Mr.. Dawes one reason
why these injurious, and we have no doubt, un-
founded rumors, come into circulation in re-
gard to him. he need not apply for subpenas
for people a days journey away from Wash
ngton to ascertain how generally the matters
of which we speak are known OF talked
about in Washington. He may ask any
half dozen of his friends in the House of Rep
resentatlves if they have ever heard of them,
and their answers will convince him of the
danger and imp0licy of neglecting such things.
For several years past person named
Chaffee, formerly in Congress from the region
which Mr.. Dawes has represented with so
much credit and distinction, has been going
ND and down in Washington, giving out in
quarters where it would be profitable, the i'm
preston that Mr.. Dawes was his great friend,
very much inclined to listen to him, and not
ayerse to following his direction in matters of
practical concern. 1t has even come to be
understood Che certainly not dscouraging the
idea) that moneys paid to him to secure the
passage of bills would exert a direct influence
upon the conduct of Mr.. Dawes. These
pretensiOns would be ridiculous enough
if they did not receive color from tho known
cordial relations of this gentleman to Mr..
Dawes. 1t is SAID that he has easy access
to tho rooms of the Committee on Ways and
Means when they are closed to the outside
world; that he rarely fails to see and consult
with its Chairman when others find 1t impos-
sible to do SO; and that, in short the pro-
tense Of cgs.1V.l.as u. QaWes. W-,cA u .

TIE DEFEAT OF CHANDLEH.

load of Mr.. Zacharah Chandler Notwithstand-

Dawes suspected the use which Is made OF
them.
As the Editor Of THE TRIBUNE was asked
with some insistance when before the Com
mittee Of Ways and Means. what measures he
would advise in certain cases, We would beg
leave to remind them of what The TRIBUNE did
in case precisely analogous. IL came TO our
knowledge some time ago that man was
making an improper use Of a pretended con
nection with this paper He bad. years before.
owned, for short time few shares OF Its STOCK
Upon this slender basis he pretended to bs
one of its prODriet0rs, and to have con-
trolling vOicO in its management lie hawKoa
it's name everywhere he went about nis Varl-
Gus affairs. He offered It's support to every
one Of whom he wanted favOrs or contracA
and threatened with its vengeance those wnn
treated him with the contempt he de-
served. At last he began to accept free tickets
upon its account, and TO ride gratis upon
these false preten5es on various railroads.
When these facts were brought to VS. we
denounced him, cOnspicuOusly, as Chronic
Dead Head and warned all and singular
to put no trust in his fctions. We did
this at some risk, for this man, like others OF
his kind, since then, had the Editor of The
TRIBUNE sued for libel in Washington where
he had gone to attend the funeral OF an
eminent public man. The service seemed
simply for purposes of annoyance, and tho
suit has never been heard of since, in which
respects it also may prove to resemble tho
proceedings instituted by Mr. Camps imitltor.
The measure which we adopted to free our
selves from the discreditable relationship which
a chronic dead-head was striving to fasten
upon us, was entirely successful. We have
never heard since that day that Mr. Camp
claimed to control THE TRIBUNE. We can
therefore unreservedly recommend TO Mr.
Dawes the expedient which we found 80 effect
nal and can assure him that both in the in
formation we have given him, in that public
way which he seems to prefer, and in the sug-
gestions we have made, we have in view
nothing but bis own welfare and honorable
repute.
