The President sent in his weekly
veto message Monday. 1t was the
LITTLE dummy bill" providing for the
pay OF Marshals, that was vetoed this
time, The President b olds that the
political rider in this bill is just as
offensive and just as contrary " the
constitution as any of the other poiit-
ical legislation attempted. He tells
Congress that these officers were
created and their powers and duties
defined by Congress at its first ses-
sion after the adoption Of the consti-
tuition, and that their duties have not
been essentially changed since that
time. He says: &in short the exc
cution OF the criminal laws OF the
United States, the service Of all civil
process In cases In which the United
States ia a party. and the execution
OF tie revenue laws, neutrality laws
and many other laws OF large impor-

An official statement OF expendi-
lures from the appropriation for the
punishment OF violations OF internal
revenue laws from January 1 to May
/, 1879, shows that during that
period there was expended for the
above purpose In Indiana Sl,343 and
in Kentucky s2o.943. in Iowa 1927
and in North Carolina S27 AIS, In
Wisconsin $3.50 and in Tennessee
S24.543, and so on. Mr.. Voorhees, and
other States rights Senators should
look into this matter. The Southern
States seem to be getting by far the
largest part Of money appropriated
to punish frauds on the revenue, In
diana, especially, Is a Democratic
State, and IL the Democrats expect
to keep even with Kentucky, and be
equally honored in the Democratic
national councils they must be able
to show that they can do as much at
cheating the government.

The Burlington Hatukeye, published
reports Monday morning from over
seventy points in Southern Iowa and
Western Illinois, contiguous to Bur-
lington. where harvesting is COM
mencipg. But little wheat has been
cut as yet but the yield so far Is ex-
cellent, both as to quality and guam
tity. In Southwestern Iowa the
chinch bug has done some damage,
and in other localities there Is an &C.
casional complaint of rust. but on the
whole the yield will be nearly IL not
quite up to the average. Corn Is In
splendid condition aud promises the
largest yield that has been had for
several years. There Is an increased
acreage, and the average per acre Is
much higher. Oats are 10 good con-
dition, but the stand Ia light In many
places. Hay, which promised less
than half a crop during the dry
weather, has been greatly helped by
copious June rains, and now will
yield two thirds of crop. In some
localities there has been an excess OF
moisture, but upon the whole reports
are very favorable, and farmers and
business men are feeling greatly en-

/ Strange Way to Dispose Of
Stolen Property.

On last Sunday night about 8 O'Clock q
negro by the name Of Alfred Byrd camo into
Fair Play and notified Messrs. r. f. Pullen,
w. S. Glenn and james Pullen that he had
found hat, vest and pair Of gloves hanging
Mt his gate. which were not there at dark.
Tho negro had first COMO to MIR. Wm. Whit
field and his son and notified them of the oc"
currencc. aud they not being able to throw
any light on the subject, ho thought that
perhaps somo one had been taking property
from sOmo of our merchants that did not
belong to them. and hcnce his visit hero at

The Democrats Cannot Yield.

The Democrats did righ. in insisting upon
tho repeal of the laws for interfering with
and carrying elections, even though the re-
suit is an extra session Of Congress. The
Republicans were the obstructionists, and
upon them the blame rests for defeating the
appropriation bills; and now their party
papers urge Mr.. Hayes TO pursue n course
that would be practically little less than re-
volntionary. They say he ought to veto the
appropriation bills containing the rercnling
clauses, when the new Congress passes them,
and run !hc risk of leaving his administras
ton without the money to carry it on. or
course b,th houses. being Democratic, will
retain these clauses, and while Mr.. lInycs
might exercise his constitutional power Of the
veto, he would hardly venture to stGp the
wheels OF Government by resisting measures
50 wholesome in themselves and so in con-
fnrmity with our free institutions The
Democrats, representing so fully the people
and tho States in both houses OF Congress,
cannot yield in this case There is an impor.
tant principle bearing upon the integrity
and preservation of ,ur form OF government,
involved, aud they cannot give way

How to Rob a Stage Coach,

The process Of robbing stage coach is very
smplc. 1t is tho American idea that a really
brave traveller will have ono or two rcvolycrs
IN his boots and o knife down his back, and
that when the brigands appear he should
spring out at them, bringing ono or two Of
them down before he touches the ground, and
shouting, "Aha, base robhcr, begonc"
| have known Americans who started out for u
stage journey with these revolvcrs and these
ideas. But the base robbcr will not bcgonc
| What the American or any other traveller
really does is to hand over his rcvolvcrs and
knives, then swear by everything that's holy
and good that ho hasn'' anything about him
Of any value, and then go down into his
pockets and bring out purses and watches
and other lttlo weaknesses, and hand them
over too. When thirty or forty mounted men
suddenly appear alongside stage coach,
each man >.th loaded rifle pointed at the
passengers, traveller is very likely to forget
which poekct he has his rcyolvcrs in. The
searching process is done with great skill. !
cannot tell it better than in the words of q
man who had tho experience:
"Tho first thing wo knew" said he, ''thcrc
wero forty or fifty brigands around tho dlis

to hand over my money. l had $500 in notes
along, but had hidden that in one of the cush
