THE PRESIDENTS VETO NO. 2.


rather hard to please. Rather, we
shoeld have said, it is difficult for .
Democratic Congress to please or
satisfy Republican President. Mr..
Hayes admits that the presence OF
soldiers at the polls is all improper.
Yea, more, he very graciously prom>
ises that soldiers. by his order, shall
not be at the polls.
In view of such admission and
such promise upon bic part, under
the rather unusual circumstances at
tending his Veto No. 2, there is
room for painful surmise. Honest
men always act up to their conylc-
tions, their actions are the result OF
what they believe. Somehow it is
more than troublesome to make the
avowals and action of the President
square themselves by this line. To
be candid, out Of the facts connect
ed with this second veto of the bill
forbidding the presence of Federal
troops at the polls, two conjsctures
are justified, either of which is dams
aging to Rutherford B. Hayes.
The one is, that claiming to be OPP
posed to the presence of troops at
the polls, he hopes to save himself
from the charge of abetting such
thrusts at the sacredness Of free
franchise, and yet secure to his par
ty ali possible advantage that might
accrue from such law being upon
the statute book. No man can tell
when and how the party might get
victory in this way. Besides there
are more ways of doing thing than
one. And then other men will be
Republican Presidents be hopes
Does he desire to bequeath to them
power to use troops which he for
selfish reasons does not care to exer
else, bat will not object to see them
WELD. With some such argument
as that lack Chandler induced him
to veto twice. Then it is good
party cry at the North to say the
President was opposed to the law
authorizing the use of troops at cleo
ton, but he saw the South could not
be trusted. See how that rallies the
doubling.
The other is that he has allowed
himself to become party to the
many devices and schemes of the
unbridIed and malignant leaders OF
the Republican party to engender
afresh sectional hate and fan it to a
blaze and to madness for the fear
full contest which next year will
bring upon the country.
If either conjecture is near the
truth. his course is not that of q
high>toned, chivalrous and wise
American patriot and statesman.
Let the Democrats pass the ueces
sary financial measures such as the
exigencies of the government from
year to year demand. Pass them ii
proper and wise measure such al
sound economic principles will justi
fly and such as they demand lie
them pass other such measures al
they think the interests OF their con
stituents demand. Let them repeal
all laws they, as wise and devoted
statesmen, think unfriendly to 'h'
prosperity of the people or contrary
to the principles, traditions and his
tory of our flee institutions Their
leave the results, the issues, to b.
passed upon by the voters. he coun
try can not possibly get good out o.
partzan war with the President
No war of words, nor calling baC
names. LIT the people speak. The
hope of the land is in their virtue
and moderation.

The circular to foreign countries is treated
with contempt, and claimed to be absurd to
suppose that any European government would
undertake to establish iH9uisition to deter
mine the religious paths of emigrants, or all
who intend to enter into polygamy. There
is no evidence OF any intention Of forcible re-
sistance to government. But Mormans
have good military organizations and are
mostly well armed
