Federal hay onsts and State Leyisla
tures


General Ruger's reply to the commit
tee of the South Carolina House of Rep
resentatives informs the committee that
the United States troops who hold pos
session of the State House at Columbia
are there by his order for the purpose of
executing such orders as might be given
to them, and that should the Wallace
House attt mpt to enter the legislative hal
his present orders would require the of
ficcrs to assist those in charge of the doors
to prevent such entry should they be
called upon to do so. General Rugcr, of
course, has nothing to do as soldier but
to obey orders. But the Wallace House
has now been declared legal by the courts
of the State and has a constitutional
quorum of members hearing the certifi-
cate of the Chamberlain Returning Board
and Secretary of State. Should they
now be interfered with by the federal
troops no plea of ignorance on the part
of President Grant or of a misapprehen-
sion Of orders by General Ruger or any
of his subordinate officers could inter
vene. The people are now interested in
the question, How long is this interier-
cnce of the United States military with
purely State affairs and with so high and
responsible body as State Legislature
to continue? Before election the presence
of the troops was said to be required to
secure peaceful election. After election
it was needed to insure peaceful count.
Now that the returning boards have done
their work why do federal bayonets still
gleam in and around State hall of legis-
lation? What is their mission now, and
when will it be ended?
