whose embankments has caused such
horrible loss of life and property and
caused SO much suffering to the peo.
pie of the city of Szegedin, Hungary,
is large navigable stream six hund-
red miles in length, flowing parallel
with the Danube for long distance
and finally emptying into that river.
Several important manufacturing
towns and commercial cities are locat-
ed on Its banks Of which Szegedin is
the chief. The city is built in marsh,
and is crossed by bridge of boats,
which indicates the constant danger
from the floods. The city is connect
ed by rail with all the ports of the
country. Its chief industries are boat
building and the manufacture of to-
bacco, soda, and soap in which it en-
joys an extensive trade. The awful
catastrophe caused by the breaking
away of the river embanking and sub
merging the city, by which $4,000 peo'
pie are rendered homeless and humid
reds of lives destroyed is horrible
enough to arrest the attention and
command the sympathies of the world.
The aggregate destruction of prop
erty and loss of business with the suf-
fering entailed are almost beyond
comprehension.
Where the Responsibility Belongs
Says the Enquirer: "The Consti-
tuition of the United States provides
that the President shall at stated times,
receive for his services q compensa-
ton which shall neither be increased
nor diminished during the period for
which he shall have been elected"
1t is urged that because of this con-
stitutional provision the Congress in
attaching tho repeal Of odions laws to
appropriation bills, should that be-
come necessary, ought to except the
salary of the President in the Legisla-
tive, Judicial and Executive Bill.
This is foolishness. 1t is not the Con-
gress in passing such a bill, but the
President in vetoing it, that would be
violating the Constitution in tina, con-
dition. If the supplies cease, if the
necessary appropriations fail, the
Presidents salary is diminished from
$4,000 per annum TO nothing at all.
1t is claimed that this would be in
violation Of the Constitution but this
would be a violation of the .Constitu-
ton by the President and not by Con-
gress. Ii Congress passes an appro-
priation bill providing for the lawful
payment of the Presidents salary in
harmony with the Constitution the
duty of Congress in that matter is
ended. If the President chooses to
take away or stop his own salary, aud
violate the Constitution at the same
time by a veto, the responsibility will
rest with him. 1t will not have been
the Congress but the President that
broke the Constitution. The Congress
will have voted the salary and the
President will have vetoed it,"
