Senator Rice's Blu.
| Willmar Republican-Gazette.


We print elsewhere the bill introduced by
Senator Rice to provide for the donation of
lands to establish and maintain high school
at Willmar. The bill passed the Senate by
an almost unanimous vote, but was defeated
in the House. Rice is the only man we can
think of just now who could have got the
bill through the Senate with so little opposi-
ton, and he has every reason to feel proud
OF the achievement. The bill ought to have
become law, the ST. Paul and Minneapolis
newspapers to the contrary Notwithstanding.
If it had been measure intended to benefit
either of those cities of course it would have
been all right, but anything going to build
up public institution in another part OF
the State, although it would benefit the peo-
pie of several counties. is cried down as a
fraud and a steal. Thousands of acres of
public lands have been given to build the
State university and Hennepin county is the
only section benefited to any extent.

TROOPS At ELECTIONS.

The Senate has antagonized the House in
refusing to concur in the amendment to the
army appropriation bill forbidding the use
of the military force of the government at
elections. The vote by which this amend
ment was rejected showed that the Repub-
licans in that body were unanimously in IA
vor of retaining that relic of the despotism
that was one of the outgrowths of the war
and the subsequent arbitrary proceedings
looking towards the reorganization of the
rebellious States. While we may admit for
the sake of argument that there was once a
necessity for the use of troops to protect all
classes of citizens in their right to the elect
| i've franchise, that necessity has long since
Disappeared. While the necessity existed
and the power was exercised, it was as often
used to intimidate as to protect voters,
while those most in need of protection were
only used where their presence would add to
the strength of the Republican party, while
in localities where Democrats were liable to
intimidation there was no effort made to
give them the privilege to which they are
entitled under the constitution and laws.
The employment of troops for political
purposes is clearly extra constitutional. The
right to regulate and control the elective
franchise is specifically reserved by the con-
stitution to the several States, and the at
tempt of the general government to control
it is wanton usurpation of power against
which the people have right to protest. If
our government was a monarchy, and its
perpstuity depended upon maintaining in
power some particular person or family,
there would be ample excuse for the attempt
to overawe the people who showed symptoms
of desire to change the existing order of
things; but our government was established
on different basis entirely. It was organ
lied upon the theory of constant change. 1t
is government of the people. It was SO
ordered by our forefathers, that when the
people became dissatisfied with their rulers
they could deprive them of Office and elect men
in their stead who would better represent their
ideas. This is the theory of all republics,
and cannot be too jealousy cared for The
attempt, therefore, to prevent the people
from exercising the privilege granted them
of choosing their own rulers by the employ
ment of military force, is grossly subversive
of republicanism, and cannot be too severe
~ condemned.
For many years the people have protested
Daily globe. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1878-1884, 1879-02-24

against the despotic means employed by the
party in power to retain their hold upon the
federal Offices but they have protested in
vain. Instead of recognizing the fact that
they were but exercising constitution
given right, they have been treated as rebels,
and federal marshals and federal troops have
been sent to awe them into submission to
the dictation of the central power at Wash
ington. But the people have gradually
gained, and are to-day in possession of one
branch of the national congress. few
days will end the supremacy of the party in
the other branch. The question presents
itself: Shall the representatives of
the people in the House al
low themselves and their con-
stltuents to be still longer inundated and
oppressed by yarty that has but eight days
to live? Would it not be far better to hold
oat and refuse acquiesence in this measure
of despotism? We think the good sense of
the American people will bear the Represen-
tatives out in resisting the Senate's dictum
To refuse to do so would be the acknowl-
edgment of the right of minority to gov
ern, and give to the man who fills the Presi-
dental Office an arbitrary power over the
lives and liberties of citizens which finds no
warrant either in our system of government
or in the constitution.
1t is perhaps natural that toe Republican
party, so-called, should dislike to surrender
control of the government, and seek by
every means to ward off the impending
doom. But it will only hasten that fate by
denying to the people their right to change
their rulers as often as they see fit. A party
that has abused the trust reposed in it ought
to be defeated and RETIRED and if it shall at
tempt to resist or take illegal means
to retain power, its overthrow will be
only the more certain and speedy. The peo-
pie look to the House of Representatives to
stand firm in this emergency. They must
vindicate the right of the people to govern
themselves and to make whatever changes
IN their rulers that may seem proper. This
odlous interference of the military power
with elections must cease, end all attempts
of federal officials to regulate matters that
belong exclusively to the States must end.
It, by insisting upon the restoration of the
rights of the people the House shall render
an extra session of Congress necessary, the
country will fully vindioate them.

1t strikes us as just little unkind, if not
ungentlemanly, in the Republican press of
this State to abuse Pusey, the Governors
private secretary, for showing Pillsbury out
as a candidate for third term as Governor,
when nobody but fool would think for
moment that Pillsbury himself is not at the
bottom of it, though secreted in meal tub
as usual. And all this nauseating putting
of Pillsbury's executive ability, when it is
known that Pussy deserves the credit, and
at the same time abusing him for Ptllsbury's
ambition and intrigue, looks very much like
whipping the Governor over the private Sec
retary's shoulders.

Results OF n IN Interview With the
Ute Commissioner.

A Denver Ners reporter interviewed
Gen. Charles Adams, n Of the Ute
commission, on his return to Denver
Friday evening last. As soon as Gen.
Hatch, the president of the commission,
arrives in Denver, the investigation Will
be resumed. The testimony of Capt.
Payne, Lieut.. Cherry and others will be
taken either in Denver or in Cheyenne.
The commission has not heard from
Ouray since he started out to bring in
the twelve hostiles demanded by the
commission. However, Gen. Adams
thinks the guilty ones will be surren-
dered. They will be taken to Fort
Leayenworth for trial, by way Of Pueblo.
Ouray will not accompany the prisoners
to prison, but may probably visit Den
yer. The old CHIEF will advise all of
his people who want to leave Colorado
to go, but will insist upon remaining at
his present home with those of his tribe
who choose to remain with him. 3

ming, Aontana& Pacidc railroad,
The trustees seem determined to
push things, and that at the first mo-
ment. All that remains to be done be-
fore the work is fairly begun is the vote
by the people of Laramie county on the
question of issuing the bonds. Accord
ing to the law under which the election
is to be held, the county commissioners
may call the election at any time before
February first. 1880, but not later.
The election is to be held after twenty
days notice, so it cannot be later than
February Goth, next.
At the next meeting Of The commits
s%ioners, which will be held early in
January, the matter of the bond cleo
ton will be taken up, and probably a
date will be fixed upon. The commits
sioners are meanwhile familiarizing
themselves with the many complicated
provisions of the new election law,
which requires much preparation by
the county commissioners.
However, it is a foregone conclusion
that the bonds will be voted for. For
our part we a see no prospect of a
reversal of this opinion. We base it
upon simple common sense, because we
cannot believe that the people will
throw away the opportunity of secur-
ing a northern outlet, which will in
crease the wealth and prosperity Of this
county and city. We hail election day
with unfeigned pleasure.
