forcibly illustrated by the latest news

Capital Notes.

Washington, Feb. 22.-At meeting of
tie senate committee on finance this
morning, the bill introduced by Mr.. Beck
to repeal all taxes on bank capital bank
deposits and bank checks, was taken up
and on motion of Mr.. Bayard was amen
ued so as to provide solely for the aboli-
ton Of the tax on deposits. The COM
mittee thereupon authorized him to
report the bill to the senate in this shape
for immediate passage.
The military committee of the COM
mittee on inaugural ceremonies, not
deeming the programme issued by Chief
Marshal General w. L. Sherman, suita-,
bic for the occasion, adopted pro-
gramme OF its own which will be submit
ted to the executive committee for
action thereon. The general plan of
parade, according to this programme. is
that all organizations intending to par
ticiputc therein, civil as we'll rs military,
ut the capitol, take position within sight
of the east front, and as near the capitol
as the nature of the ground will permit.
Senator Carpenter is still dangerously
i'll.
Executive departments and other gov
ernmcnt buildings, except the capitol,
are closed IN honor of Washington's
birthday. Extensive arrangements have

ported sugar may be transferred without

THE G0vEsMOR'S vEToEs
Fargo Republican.

The legislature is working along at
Yankton much after the time -honored
ways of such dignitied, able and indus
trious bodies elsewere. 1t has not formed
an exception to the rule that the iegisla-
tive and executive departments of gov
ernments do not always see things i'll the
same light. His exccllency the govern
or has found it necessary, from his point
Of view and estimate of duty, to veto
several measures, and the representatives
of the people in the council and house
have taken occasion to pass the same,
the objections of the executive to the
contrary Notwithstanding.
Appearances seem to indicate that the
vctoes have been unifornly based upon
Il desire to protect taxpayers from any
unnecessary expenditure Of public mon
cys. The legislature in the cases refer
red to, has not thought the disburse-
ments unnecessary, and has acted accord
ingly. There was the Moody salary bill
for instance! A section of the same pro,
vided that the increase should only apply
to the Office during the incnmbency OF
Gideon G. Moody. Mr.. Ordway's enemies
assert that lie vetoed that measure be-
cause, SO far from training with "Gideon's
band" his excellency did not regard tho
Judge with sentiments of fraternnl affec
ton. A different view of his actor
will probably present itself to the rn
preiudiced mind from considera
ton of the exceptional character OF til,
legislation in the section mentioned
The governor might reasonably thinl
that he would be open to criticism ina
proving an act that in terms appearc,
for the benefit of nn individual
at the public cost. His rea
sons for disappearing the othe
two or three bills, were no doubt muc
! i'll the same line, and it does not appea
, that in using his constitutional prerogy
tive, he has applied il to any measur
