Veto No. 2.

President Hayes presented his com.
pliments to the confederates in congress
on Mondayd through another message
vetoing one of their pet revolutionary
bills, which was handsomely sugar
coated and we'll calculated to deceive.
1t purported to have only in view the
prevention of military interference at
the polls, but all amendments offered
by the republicans providing against
the presence of white liners and south
ern troops on election days to over awe
voters, were voted down. TIE presi-
dent shows conclusively that no such
legislation as was proposed is necessary
to secure the object the confederates
pretended to have in view, and he
further demonstrated clearly that the
law would be against public policy.

Secretary sherman.

Secretary Sherman returned to
Washington last week from brief
visit to Ohio. He speaks hopefully
of the condition of affairs in that
state. The farming interests are
in good condition, business was re-
covering from the long drawn,ou
depression, and the manufacturing
interests, he thought, we're in better
condition than for some time. AS to
his visit, he said not only was it
without political significance, but
the thought had not entered his
mind up to the time Of his arrival
at Mansfield, that any body or
newspaper should attempt to attri
butte political motives to his visit.
1t was purely business trip and
without any significance whatever.
He did not desire to be candidate
for Governor. He had all he could
do in Washington and as long as
he could be of any service to the

What Senator PendletOn Once
Thought.

There is good reason to suppose
that at least one Democratic Sena-
tor estimates at their true value the
cries Of pretended alarm by which
his party associates have striven to
arouse the country concerning the
use of troops at the polls, and the
menance to the civil liberty of As
100000 from standing army of
$4,000 men. Mr.. Pendleton knows
that all this talk is insincere, and
his friends recall q time when he
had the courage to stand up in
Congress and denounce similar
talk.
On the 18TH of March, 1858, Mr.,
Pendleton made a speech in the
House of Representatives in favor
of an increase in the army, and in
the course of it he discussed this
very subject. Of the use of troops
at the polls he said:
1 saw. then, that the President of the
United States has power to use the Army
in certain specified cases, and I am not
prepared to say that such case has not
arisen in the Territory of Kansas. I
know the President (Buchanan>. in his
discretion, thought it had arisen. l know
the Governor whom he sent there thought
it had arisen. l know the result of their
use there has been good Not one drop
Of blood has been shed; no man has been
interferred with in the enjoyment of his
civil rights and for the first time in the
history of that Territory the two political
parties have met at an election upon an
i issue joined and have conducted it peace.
fully.
On the other point Mr.. Pendle-
ton spoke even more positively. He
said:
We are told thata standing army is
dangerous to the liberties Of the people
l will not quarrel with that maxim; X
but, sir, was it ever heard that an
army of 10000 men, scattered over g.
100000 square miles, coming from the
people, returning to the people, supported
by taxes raised from the people and voed
by their Representatives, was dangerous
to the liberties of 100000 treemen. 1t
is the suggestion of weak imagination,
and not the sober apprehension of manly
judgment.
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1879-05-14

Mr.. TUCKER, of Virginia, lead
ing democrat of the house in dis
cussing the army bill, said-and the
paragraph is now going the rounds
and receiving the commentator of
the southern press:
"This law giving power to use troops
to keep peace at the polls was passed in
February, 1865, when eleven states were
unrepresenedt in this congress. Whether
they were right or wrong in this matter
IS not pertinent to the argument. All
the states are now represented It is not
unreasonable that they should seek to
repeal law which they regard as vic
ious, and to which, in fact, they never
assented, but BY which they are bound !"
Just SO. And upon the same
principle the last vestige of war
legislation-everythin done while
the gentle southerner was engaged
in shooting northern soldiers, and
could not therefore be in con-
gress, must be wiped out. The
constitutional amendments the ma
tional debt,pensions to union soldiers
and all that sort of thing. All
these measures and many others
like them have been regarded as
''vicious," by the aforesaid eleven
states, were never assented to bv
them, and therefore they must, &C
cording to Tucker and his asso-
ciate brigadiers, be stricken from
the statute books. Modest fellows
those confederates!

non as the present one 50 far. The
term for which Governor Smith
was elected in drawing to close
and the people of Wisconsin have
nothing but praises to bestow on
him for the way in which he has
conducted the affairs Of State the
past year and half. Not even
democratic newspapers which are
prone to find fault with republic
cans on general principles have adj
versely criticised his official actions
to any extent. This alone indicates
that his administration has been
an exceptionally good one. Gov.
Smith his been vigilant and pains
taking, and it is common remark
that no Governor has ever given
more time and attention to the
duties of his position than the pre-
sent executive. His adninistra-
tion will compare favorably with
any the State has ever had.

Zach. Chandler Stirs up the Demo
cratic Tiger again.


speech on the democratic caucus
bill on Friday, only occupied the
floor about twenty minutes, but, as
one Washington correspondent puts
it, che crowded a century of mean
ing into the speech Senator
Chandler does not claim to be an
orator, and few would claim it for
him, but he speaks slowly, deliber-
ately, and puts his sentences we'll to-
gether, seldom repeating a word or
reconstructing sentence. He never
prepares speech, and nobody, not
even himself knows when he is go
ing to make one, until something is
done or said to arouse him, when
he gets up and fires away. He
says that he had been brooding
over the events of the last fifteen
wears since the war for several
weeks, in fact, ever since he heard
Jefferson Davis called patriot, the
closing nights of the last session,
and he had been gradually getting
very mad. So, when Blaine Said
something to recall to his mind the
"reminiscences of these years, he
rose with an impulse and gave the
senate the benefit of the lesson his
glance at the past had taught him.
The speech was as sudden as short,
and as destructive, as the explosion
of a columbiad. Sudden, because
it was entirely unexpected, and des-
tructive, because, in a few words, he
shattered the pleasant fancies that
have been builded on reconciliation
and reunion, and because he expos
ed, in language that cannot be mis-
understood, the meaning of the
confederate supremacy. His bold
and emphatic language in charging
that twelve southern senators held
their seats by violence, fraud, init
midation and murder, and that they
really had no right there as senators
caused a sensation, and Eaton Called
him to order. Chandler boldly re-
peated his charge, saying it was the
truth, and known to be such by
every member on that side of the
chamber. He referred to the fact
that there were but two republican
senators from the south, and the
revolutionists were already prepar-
ing to turn one Of them out. He
warned them to beware how they
established such precedent when
it was so we'll known that twelve
on the democratic side of the cham
Der had no right to their seats.
When he finished the democrats
looked at each other as much as to
say. s'What had we better do
about it," If any one had attempt
ed to reply there would have been
such a scene as he has not witness
ed in congress since the war, be-
cause the Democrats were so en-
ragged that none of them could have
spoken SO temporarily. The Michi-
gan senator is the hero Of the hour
among the republicans. They de-
clare that few blunt truths needed
to be stated on the floor of the
senate, and that Chandler did it, and
did it we'll.
