MT. Emile Flammarion, French Scientist, ayers that cold seasons are owing to the ab- sence of the sun-spots. What are called spots on the sun are in fact boiling eruptions of white-hot hydrogen in which the earth could be tossed bodily, and their presence vastly increases the heat given out by the center of the solar system. The spots will return again in three and g half years, and M. FlaA= marion predicts hot summer in 1881. Other scientists find other causes and none of them apparently know much about 1t.

The Plymouth Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1878-1901, 1879-05-01

The Senate last Friday passed the
army appropriation bill just as it
came from the House, with the repeal
OF election laws attached, thus COM
pelling the President to sign a bill
intended to prevent fair elections, or
veto it. and with 1t, all appropria-
tons for the subsistence of
the army. But President Hayes was
equal to the emergency, and the
buldozers are foiled. The President
tells them that he regards the clause
forbidding the use OF troops at the
polls as wholly unnecessary and un-
called for. He strongly intinates
that it was not for this reason that
the section was framed. but that its
real object is contained in the second
clause, which renders the civil officers
Of the law powerless TO use force to
execute the election laws, which are
left on the statute book untouched
by this legislation, and with no at
tempt to repeal them. These elec-
ton laws are beyond question con-
stitutionaf, and they are also neces-
sary, and this attempt to strike them
down isone that the President does
net approve. He calls attention to
the fact that this section prevents the
President from enforcing the laws
which remain on the statute books
In regard to elections. aud this he
treats as grave interference with
the constitutional rights OF the exc
cutive. He denies the light OF Con-
gress to force the executive to sign
measures which be does not approve.
Such a course on tho part OF the
House would, il allowed to pass un-
challenged, enable the House to usurp
all powers OF the coordinate branch
es Of the government. The President
presents his views pointedly upon
the custom OF attaching extraneous
legislation to the appropriation bills.
While that has sometimes been done
at the close OF session when there
was not time to complete important
legislation, ia this case it was at
tempted simply as a coercion OF the
executive. He sets forth the duty OF
Congress to make appropriations aud
to see that the money OF the people
is applied to the purposes for which
the government collected ii. We
shall now see whether the Democrats
will attempt to starve the army to
accomplish partisan ends.
