TrTK F0trRTH VETO.

Tho President sont to Congress yesterday
tho fourth voto called out by tho desperate
Deuocrntio effort to broak down tho Election
laws. The first veto WAS dirooted ngainBt an
Army Appropriation bill containing clauso
designed to prevent the use Of troops for en-
forcing tho Election laws in case Of resist
auca. The second bill waa separate uaeas-
uro containing virtnnlly tho same inhibition
as to tho employment Of troops, but passed
without reference to tho annual appropria-
tions. Tho third waa the Legislative Appro-
priation hill with "ridor" ropealing tho
vital portions Of tho Election law. The bill
now yotoed contains appropriations for tho
maintenance Of tho United States Courts
with provision uullifylng md defeating the
operation Of the Election law. It will bo
seen that all these bills had common pur-
poBo, and that tho veto in evory case involves
tho Bamo principles.
In the meantime tho President has ap
proved the amended Army Appropriation
bill and the Legislative Appropriation bill.
Thora was no controversy over tho latter
except rs to its form, which was 50 bungling
as to make It doubtful whother tho officers
OF The Government can Gisburso the moneys
as designated by Congress-; tie bill eon-
tained no political "ridors," however. aud
hence there was no objection which .war-
.ontcd Executive diaapproval. Nobody will
quarrel with the President about his approval
Of tho second Army bill, except cortnin OK
tromists who were willing to keep nlive the
controversy upon technical points. The bill

THE veto power has been exercis-
ed by the Presidents Of the United
States ninety-three times. Wash
ington sent two veto messages to
Congress--oue returning a bill for
the apportionment of members of
Congress, the other returning a bill
to reduce the army. The reason as
signed for not approving the bin
first named was that its provisions
were impracticable. He vetoed the
bill to reduce the army because it
was injudieious and unjust. Madi.
son sent six veto messages to Con-
gress. Among the bills disapproved
by him was one comforting naturali-
cation privileges, which the Presi-
dent thought was "liable to abuse
by aliens, and one to establish the
United States bank, which was not
approved, because the Presidel t
thought it ibid not meet public re-
quirements." Monroe vetoed only
one bill--to extend aid to the Cum
berland road. Jackson vetoed
twelve bills, Tyler nine, Polk three,
Pierce nine, Buchanan four, Lincoln
one, Johnson seventeen, Grant TWEEN
ty-siX, and Hayes four, namely, the
Silver bill, a bill authorizing a spec
ial term Of the Circuit Court in
Mississippi, the Chinese bill and the
Army Appropriation bill. The riv-
er and harbor appropriation bill was
vetoed 10y Jackson twice, and by
Tyler, Polk and Pierce each once.
The seventeen bills vetoed by John.
son were Of a politiea! character, and
all were passed over the veto except
one, namely, bill to admit the TEL
ritory Of Colorado into the Uuion.
The only important bin Of the TWEEN
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1879-05-07
ty-six vetoed by Grant WAS the In
hatian bill. Nearly all the others
were bills for the relief of individuals.

1t is understood in Washington
that President Hayes wrote the veto
message himself, and that it was not
submitted to the Cabinet until after
1t was sent to the House of Repre-
sentatives. A Washington dispatch
on the subject says:
Although the veto was never dis
cussed or referred to in any Cabinet
meeting, the President consulted
each member of the Cabinet singly
as to his views on the subject. With
out giving his own views in regard
to the matter, the President asked
his secretaries what each thought
should be done. Then after he had
obtained the views of a Cabinet Off
Ger, the President would remark
that he had carefully considered the
matter in all its details, and had
about decided on what his message
should be. Strange to say, all the
members in the Cabinet conceded
IN their views with the President.
This is fact which may be asserted
upon the highest authority, and it
puts to fight the idle rumors that
there was difference of opinion in
the Cabinet on the exped;ency of the
veto. The President was in doubt
as to whether he would return the
Army bill with his veto at once, or
allow few days to elapse. 1t was
upon this point that he especially
consulted the members OF the Cab
met. They to man advised prompt
action. upon the theory that the ex-
ira session OF Congress was called
Tor the purpose OF considering the
Army and Legislative appropriation
bills, and that as on account of OBJ
noxious "riders" to each, they were
to be vetoed, it was advisable to let
the House know at the earliest mo-
ment the attitude of the Executive,
and to allow the Democrats the full
est and quickest time possible to re-
consider their policy and make the
necessary appropriations for the sup
port OF the Government.

their official duties The present
bill gives the authorities right to en-

bill gives the authorities right to en-
force the laws, and deals only with
the military. There is a hint, how
ever, In the message, that the Presi-
dent believes in whatever of author
ity there may be for the use of the
military. He says: 1.-The State may
employ both military and civil pow
er to keep the peace and enforce the
law at State elections. 1t is now
proposed to deny to the United
States even the necessary civil au-
thority to protect national elections.
No sufficient reason has been given
for this discrimination in favor of
State and against national authori-
ty." And again: at is the right
and duty OF the National Govern
ment to enact and enforce laws which
will secure free and fair Congress-
ional elections. even to the use of
the army, if necessary, is the infer
ence. Section one of the Fifteenth
Amendment, which declares the
right of any citizen to vote, shall not
be denied on account of race, etc,
and section two which gives Con-
gress, specifically what is always
implied, the power to enforce the
article, are cited by the President,
together with the decision of the
Supreme Court, that this amend
ment invests citizens with a new
constitutional right which is within
the protecting power of Congress.
The indication here is that the Pres
ident believes in the duty Of Con-
gress to provide for any extremity
for the use of any power to keep the
peace at the polls.
On the other hand the Presidents
message puts forth the idea that
there is no power to use the army to
keep peace at the polls when the
civil power is adequate. His quo
tation from the debate when the law
was passed goes still further and in
dicates that he does not belieye
there is any authority to use troops
at the polls under any circumstances
in time of peace. The President ev.
identity believes that the Govern
ment ought to have the power to
use troops at the polls to keep the
peace, but he does not believe any
such power has been given. While,
in his view, the adoption of the
present Democratic measure will
make no practical difference, never
theiess, he will not be inclined to fa-
yor n more decided expression
against the use of the military than
existing laws provide. And for this
reason he will probably veto the bill

So strict have the repressive regu-
latiops became that the average citi-
zen has no where to put his foot

furnished by the Government with
special permit to circulate abroad.
No mans house is safe from the
nocturnal visits of the police, and
the least bolt of suspicion is snffici-
ent to cause the arrest of the highest
official and his incarceration in pris-
on, from whence his involun tary
transportation to Siberia is almost
sure to follow in the course Of
events.

looking to the removal and settle

General Butler proposes to devote
to their use and benefit. No action
was taken, the meeting deciding to
let the colored people themselves
first take action.

CAPTAIN S. S. MCKINLEY, of
Mitchell county, Iowa, who carries
six wounds on his body, whose skull
was crushed by a rebel shell, whose
broken and shattered health compels
him to spend his winters in Florida,
has recently returned from there.
They all know him down there, and
since the present Congress began its
session, the people of the South are
daily becoming more arrogant and
impudent. They have an idea gen.
orally throughout the country that
this Congress will give them back
what they lost in the war. He says
at st. Augustine is county pauper
who one day said to him: "Once |
lighted my cigar with n fifty dollar
bill, and | shall DO it again when we
&c. pay for what you robbed us of
and stole from u.s." At station in
Tennessee four stalwart natives came
on The train, and seeing the Captain
and other Northerners, they began
to talk, and, with much glee, assert
ed that they had control of Congress
now, and it wouldn't be many months
before "no id Yankee would be
allowed to ride on our railroads"
He reports a general feeling of vim
dictiveness equal to thai during the
war, which only lacks opportunity
to vent itself.

1HE Uatnolc Bishop Of Minnesota
has ordered prayers for rain to be
said in all the churches of that do
cese Sunday, Monday and Tuesday,
A st. Paul dispatch says that the
wheat crop needs rain throughout
that State, especially in the South
ern counties, but the drouth has not
pro crossed so far as to amount to a
public calamity, and it cannot be
learned that the crop has suffered
seriously. Though rain is needed

casion for panic.
