this measure. His views were that
the bonds had been issued mere

paper. The contractors for the railroads had
no credit where money was to be loaned, and
the State loaned its credit to them with the
distinct understanding that the bonds should
be paid by the railroad companies who had re-
ceived the benefits of the credit.
He had been surprised at the sudden CONVEX
sions on this question. Here was his friend
from Olmsted Mr.. Daniels) who before the

4 REsPoNsIBLE GOVERNMENT.

Senator Pendleton is deserving of a
good deal of credit for his persistence in
pressing, in the face of many difficulties,
his bill to provide seats on the floor of
each house of Congress for the members
of the cabinet. There is much that can
be said in favor of the BILL and very little
against it, and though there is little pros
pect of its passage at the present session
of Congress, it will probably receive the
sanction of both houses before another
year has passed.
There. have been few valid objections
offered to the principle of the bill. 1t
does not give the cabinet officers vote in
either house, but simply confers on them
the privilege of holding seats in each
branch and of discussing measures that
may be pending directly affecting the
management of their several depart
ments. They are also required to answer
whatever interrogatories may be pro-
pounded to them relative to their official
acts at the request of either house,
and can be held to a
strict responsibility much in the
same manner as are the English and
French ministers. 1t is not intended to
co as far in the direction of respon-
sible government as the English and
rench constitutions go, and it is per
ans to be regretted that it is in this
respect only halfway reform. The
best political economists agree that the
United States can never have truly re-
nuhlicaa form of government until the

Erening Session,


The House re-convened at O'Clock.
THE TRAMP BILL VETOED.
A veto of the tramp bill was received from
the governor. 1t was as follows:
Hon. L. Fletcher, Speaker of the House of Rep
resentatives:
SIR: l reluctantly return House File No.
Is, can act to punish tramps," to the house
in which it originated. The bill does not
make sufficient discrimination between the un-
fortunate person who is seeking for work and
the vicious vagabond who seeks to live upon
the voluntary bounty Of honest men. Some
of its provisions contravene well understood
principles of constitutional law. The punish
ment is unequal Section is Objectionable in
that it Furnishes one class of persons in diff
ferent manner than persons not of that class
TOR committing the same offense, and for this
reason is unconstitutional. Section 3 is open
to similar objections for the reason that the
pardoning power is vested elsewhere than
with the executive, as provided by the constl-
tuition.
For these reasons withhold my approval of
this act. 1 regret that feel obliged to do
the protection of the public against this
class of persons. Very respectfully,
j. s. PILLsBURY, Governor.
On motion of Mr.. Smith the vote by which
the bill was passed was recoDsidered and
the bill referred to the judiciary committee.
THE BOND QUESTION.
The special order was then resumed, Mr..
Searles taking the floor. He held that the
phraseology of the expunging amendment
"That no further issue of bonds should be
ade"---contained an admission that the bonds
already issued were legal obligations. These
words cut off all chance to deny the validity of
the bonds. The claim that fraud had been
used was no excuse, but no such fraud had
been proved, and he held that no fraud had
been committed. They were issued in good
faith. 1t is not possible in fact to submit all
the questions involved in this matter to the
do so. He considered himself the sole Judge
of his own conduct. The people were divided
on the subject, and he could not look to them
for counsel. When the faith of the State was
pledged to the payment of these bonds, it car
RED with it the power to raise the means to
redeem that pledge, and no legislative
enactment could take away that
power. All judicial expressions
were unanimous in declaring the
expunging amendment violation of the con-
tract. He submitted an amendment to section
z providing that the claims for road construc-
tion shall be apportioned pro rata between the
holders of bonds issued to contractors who
may not have paid their workmen
Mr.. Armstrong offered an amendment strik-
ing out S250,00 and inserting $l50,O00 instead
as the amount appropriated for the payment
of claims.

question was heard in the House yester-
day. From 10 in the morning till mid
night there was never-ceasing flow of
words. The question was debated in its
every aspect, and members waxed both
eloquent and wroth as they dilated upon
this or that view of the case. The law
yers had it all their own way. Judge
Wilson occupied the entire forenoon in
an able and exhaustive argument against
the pending bill. In the afternoon James
Smith, Jr., replied at length to him.
Then Mr.. Gould took the floor and came
out fat-footed for reputation. He was
followed by Gen. Sanborn and Mr.. Dunn,
in defense of the States credit, the latter
paying his respects to Judge Wilson, and
settling some old scores by an exceeding
ly caustic review of his argument against
the bill. In the evening the speeches
were somewhat shorter; and few who
were not lawyers got in word or two.
Mr.. Amundson made avery telling hit or
two in the course of five minutes
speech. A vote was had on an amend
ment Of Mr.. Wilson designed to kill the
bill, which, though not an absolute test,
showed that the measure has majority.
A large number of the legal fraternity
were on the floor during the day, and lis
tened to the debate with great attention.
Quite number of ladies were also pres
emit. The subject will be resumed this
morning.

nature must be as distinctly recognized III the
maintenance of the Park as the laws OF art.
Artistic results cannot be hoped Tor without
scientific cultivation. The Park developed at
once into a thing of beauty because man
with the skill OF lgnaz Plat planted to the de-
SIGN of Messrs. Olmstead and Naux. The artist
feels by intuition what the eye IS longing

ont as an actual and visible result
by n planter who has the taste TO appreciate
lis fall significance and practical knowledge
of all the materials to be uScd-of trees ana
shrubs, and Of all the influences which are to
control their growth under the special circum-
stances. These are fundamental truths which
must be recognized and il is illogical to thrust
them out of view when any questions concern
ing park maintenance are under discussion.
The problem of maintaining the Park, now
that it has fallen into neglect and lnclpient
decay is a complicated one, and only coura-
geous man would honestly undertake the task
The professional integrity Of Mr. Naux is such
that the fact of hIs conditional acceptance OF
the post is proof that he is confident OF his
ability to restore the pleasure ground II he can
be allowed to work in his own way He has
expIaincd to the Commissioners what that
way is. and it looks like a reasonable way.

fined by law, gives him control OF
and makes him responsible for the
design and maintenance Of the Park. In
performing his important duties he
cannot intrusl the details of his work 10 any
unknown gardener, so-calcd, and it is to his
credit rs an artist that he has at hand a man
upon whom he can rely for technical support
and whose skill is universally recognized.
One would think that the Commissioners,
if they are sincere, would eagerly seize
the opportunity to secure so much combined
taste and skill and experience Mt such a
Iidiculously inadequate salary. All the more Is
this tue because, in addition to securing good
men now. a good system would bc inaugrratcd
