This faet hardly sustains the argument or

THE VETO POWER.

|
THE VETO POWER.
In anticipation OF President HAfEs' prob
able veto Of tho democratic measures for
abollshing oil the National safeguards ngainst
corruption and violence nt National elections,
the Democrats aro contendng TINT tho veto
power Of tho Chief Executive should DO
limited to disapproval On constitutional
grounds. "The President, under the Con-
stitution," they soy, "has no participation
in legislation, and the veto was not givon
him for such a purpose" This Is merely a
deceptive and demagogical way Of saying
that constitutional objections alone aro valid
reasona for tho exercise Of tho Voto power.
There is no warrant for this position,
whether in the letter Of the Constitution,
tho authorities upon it's moaning and con-
struction, OF the procetlents furnished by
the exercise Of the veto power. It is true
that constitutional objection to any measure
passed by Congress- Ia tho 5tst possible OBJ
lection which the President can urge in sup
port Of avoto; for, il ho bo correct in his
construction Of tho Constitution and tho
proposed Inv, the law itsof, even L sane
toned by him, would not bo sustained by
tho Courts, in whom the final Jurisdiction of
constitutional questions is lodged. But i. ia
folly to contend, becanse constitutional
objection is tho best, no other is valid.
Tho laneuago Of Tho Constitution defining
the veto power Is 80 clear That 1t affords no
opportunity for diversified constructions

Daily Los Angeles herald., 1879-08-01

The nomination of Gen. San
ford for State Senator by the Dem
ocratic County Convention is q
conspicuous recognition by the
party Of the new Constitution sem
timent of Los Angeles county.
Gen. Sanford was one of the most
pronounced advocates of the new
organic law. His entire influence
was exerted to make it triumphant.
He is a gentleman of character and
ability. He is not what is popular
ly known as stump speaker, but
he possesses qualifications of iDteg-
rity and responsibility which rank
infinitely above the mere capacity
to talk. No citizen of Los Ange-
les county will for a moment en-
tertain the thought but that Gen.
Sanford will at all times be repons.
i've to their best interests, whether
political, industrial or social.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1879-08-01

THAT was a pleasant episode in
the Convention last night, in WHICH
our popular County Recorder, Char
ley Miles, took his successful com.
petitor, Mr.. Craig, by the. hand,
and told him that he would do all
in his power to insure his election.
1t is the true spirit, and Democrats
should pattern by it. "Charley"
has made an admirable official and
his perform yesterday was
highly graceful and proper. DEM
ocrats, whether they have been
successful or the reverse, should
pull cordially together for common
success. Miles's good humored
alacrity in recognizing the claims
of competitor who was successful
by a trivial vote will not initiate
against him hereafter.
