SUSPICIOUS LEGISLATION

The army appropriation bill
has received some important amend
ments in the House One is that the
Indian reservations shall be put under
the control Of the war department an
other, that no part Of the army shall be
used as a police or to aid 10 enforcing
the laws without the express authority
of Congress another, that the maxi
mum force OF the army shall be reduced
from 25, 900 to 10000 men. The last
two amendments strike directly at the
efficiency Of the army and forcibly re-
mind one OF 1861 when democratic
administration so disposed Of the army
and supplies that very little OF either
were available at the outbreak Of the
rebellion. The force Of the amend
ments is to cripple the administration
as far as possible On the president
devolves the drty of executing the
laws, and the constitution for this pur-
pose makes him commander in chief OF
the army and navy, but this bill forbids
him to use the army in executing the
laws without the express authority Of
congress. Suppose congress is not 10
session or refuses to allow Of snch use.
Last summer during the railroad riots
democratic governors were the first to
call on the President for aid and it was
only from the fact that a small force oil
troops was at hand ready to enforce
law and order with shot aud she'll that
a still more serious disturbance was
prevented. Suppose the Presidents
hands are tied with such bill as pass.
ed the house, he must from necessity
become as inefficient as James Blu
chsnan was 10 1861
The manner ia which the last amend
ment was adopted was without prece.
dent aud a partisan outrage. The
amendment was defeated 10 the com.
miitee 81 the whole and it was evident
TO all that enough OF the democrats
would join with the republicans 10 de.
feat il when il came TO a vote 10 the
house. but when the vote was taken
