The Chicago Tribune on the Army Bill

The Chicago Tribune on the Army Bill
The Chicago Tribune says with an air
of superior wisdom, that so becomes
metropolitan organ. that the democratic
capacity for laundering is only limited by
opportunity" and then it proceeds, with
Intimate gravity to say: For instance the
democrats thought they had played
very sharp game by attaching to the army
appropriation bill clause which they de-
signed 10 act as a limitation OF the presi-
dents constitutional power, as com mand-i
er-in-ehief of the United States troops
The object of the Tribune in making
these remarkable statements seems to be
to establish three distinct propositions.
|. That the democrats intended BY the
clause attached to the army appropria-
tbn bill, to deprive the president OF some
power which, under the constitution pc
longs to him. as commander -in-chief OF
the army.
2. That they chose words that they ig--
norantly supposed were sufficient TO ae-
complish their purpose, but that were. 10
fact, not so.
8. That the Tribune alone, OF all per
sons 10 and out of congress possesses sucn
sagacity and wisdom that it has detected
the intention-the game OF the democrats
and now points out the reasons for its
| failure
| The REGISTER will admit for itself
that the Tribune often sees what is not to
\ be seen, and this admission settles the
third point suggested. SO far as the REG
| IsTER is concerned; but there are persons
who are not so easily satisfied and on be-
half of these the Tribune is respectfully
asked what authority it has for saying
that the democrats In congress designed
| by the clause referred to anything more
or less than its language imports The
provision is, as given by the Tribune. 1t
shall not be lawful to employ any part OF
| the army as posse c0nattdtuS or other
wise for the purpose of executing the laws,

peated, what authority has the Tribune
for saying that the real democratic inten-

the act. The Tribune says that the clause
lis lamentable failure SO far as the real
democratic intention is concerned. Viii
the Tribune tell the world what was the
real democratic intention.
j The Tribune knows very we'll that there
is no truth whatever in its statement that
the democrats in congress intended to al
tack the constitutional authority OF the
president as commander in-chief of the
army. They intended that the army shall
not be hereafter employed to carry cleo
tions 10 doubtful states, as in 1876, or tt
overthrow state governments. as in Louis
lana. nor act as police as Gen. Sherman
ordered and Mr.. Medill desired in Chica
go. The democrats intend to pay, feed,
clothe. arm and cherish the army in stric
subordination to the constitution and tn,
laws 1t shall be the servant and not tht
master of the people. Illinois Register,
