Grant makes square issue OF veraeity will
Gen Dick Taylor In relation to the Iasser's
recent statements In regard to Grants Vir
ginia campaign. OF Gen. Taylor, he says he
is "a most agreeable man, who talks we'll and
talks great deal, and, like men Of that kind
often gets his facts blended with fiction. .
The New York Herald thinks this very fine
and crushing satire, but we think the Wash
tDgtOn Post gives Gpr0pos of this, much
more searching specimen from Andy John
son on Grants issue of veracity with him In
the celebrated Secretary'of War case Says
the Post.
This reminds us OF an anecdote Of Andrew
johnson: A correspondent In the act of in
terviewing Andy In hisTooms at the Maxwell
House, Nashville, shortly after he had been
elected Senator, asked the defender OF the
constitution If he really believed Grant would
take q third term. ''TakeF' replied Andy,
with even more than his usual vehernenne'
'Iakel he would take anything that was
offered himl Why, d-n him, he once took
tho lie from mel"
Gen. Taylor may, 'flike all men who talk a
great deal, be sometimes inaccurate, but un-
like the silent Grant order of men, he Ia In
capable OF deliberate lying, as Grant ia in
this interview when he says that his forces
and those Of Lee were about equal In num-
Der, and that the odds, when he had the odds.

has to say. At the beginning of the article in
question the following language occurs:
What we did say. and what we repeat is
that as long as the law remains on the statIIta
book, as constitutional act. il is the duty of
the courts to enforce it.
VIII the Pic. please inform US how II is to
be taken off the statute books, "as a constitu-
tiOnal act" otherwise than by the courts it
calls on to enforce it, Our idea has been that
no court can ever enforce" law that is not
constitutional Such law, we had been
taught, was dead letter, and the first and
highest duty OF the courts was to see that it |
is not enforced.
After all this has been said, then follows
the following remarkable contradiction:
But whether or not it Ia right and proper
for the Legislature to cOntrive bffense5 and
invent punishments for the benefit of the
and to devote the enginery of the
criminal law to the service of a MONOPOLY Is
not a judicial question. We do not hesitate to
say therefore. that we regard act No as a
5olecism on our criminal Jurisprudence and
as an eKcreScence on our statute book, which |
whether constitutional or not, ought to be
removed
We leave ii to the Pic. to reconcile these alb
'oluteiy contradictory statements. In max

The article that appeared in the evening
PtCdg1tne OF yesterday was indeed marvel of
contradiction and evasion; but, alas, 1t was
not less remarkable for Its stupidity. In in
tent and morals it was thoroughly DelphiC
andadisngenuOus, and only the oracuIar inge-
nuity was lacking to make it perfect as a
piece of deceit and inslncerty. 1t begins by
drawing distinction between the cOnstitu-
tionality and the policy OF act No 9. In re-
gard to the policy, expedency or propriety
Of that law, as an act of legislation, it makes
the confession we have all along endeav0red
to force from it, that 1t has expressed
no opinion" But after making this
shameful admission that during the Bit
ter fight that has been waged against this
monstrous and corrupt monopoly In the in
terests Of personal liberty and public moral
ity 1t has never raised its voice against 1t, it
hastens to make up for lost time and ex-
presses two opinions, one In favor Of it and
another against it. First it says:
We do not believe that it Is contrary to
sound policy and good legislative morals to
place the criminal processes of the State ana
the machinery Of the criminal law at the
service of private corporation, creating spe-
ctal offenses and providing special punish
ments as means of protecting it against an
Infringement of its monopoly.
Here it is as plainly stated as anything can
be stated that the Picayune does not believe
that act Nos is contrary to sound policy
and good legislative morals" This declara-
ton 1t goes on to emphasize in the following
language. we quote the exact words:

THE FRUIT DEALERS AND THE BOARD

The disposition manifested by some of the

enforcement of the quarantine regulations es.
tablished by the Board of Health. on the AL.
thOrity OF the laws and the proclamation OF

Some time since the Board of Health and
