HE SUPPLEMENTAL ASSESSMENT

A farmer Of substance and hard sense,
who has served his State with eulight-
ened fidelity In the Legislature several
times, has furnished the REGISTER with
q communication defending the action
of the Governor in the matter Of what
Is known as the supplemental assess.
ment. The article Is printed on the
first page of this issue of the REGISTER.
Another article, written by an equally
distinguished citizen of the State, is
printed Immediately following the first.
1t takes q somewhat different view.
The author does not go into the dis
cussion of the constitutional question,
the intention Of the trainers OF that in
strument, and the like, but he has
pretty clear idea Of the course he thinks
the Democratic party ought to pursue
on the subject. We don't think he Is
right in this. Nor do We think the
Democratic party should on the other
hand, pass resolutions endorsing the
seton of the Governor.
The REGISTER agrees with its Farmer
correspondent in this: The Legisla-
i've exemptions were clearly uncon-
stitutional, and will be so decided
when the question comes before the
courts, if it ever does.
But, it is just as clear that this ques.
ton has not been submitted to the
court, and hence has not been so de-
cided.
The question remaining Is: Was it
the duty Of the Governor to act on his
judgment as lawyer that the law Of
1851 was unconstitutional and instruct
the Auditor to disregard it?
We think clearly it was not his duty !;
yet probably he had right to take this
course in order to bring about a judicial
adjudication Of the question. Any one
aggrieved can take an appeal, and thus
settle the question. Any citizen may
refuse to obey a law that he believes to
be without constitutional warrant; but
he takes the chances OF having the
courts decide against him, and assess q
penalty on him for his curiosity.
In this case, we hold that it would
have been wiser had the Governor
called the attention of the people of the
State, and to their representatives in
the Legislature, to his belief in the un-
cOnstitutionality of the exemption fea-
ture of the assessment law, and said to
them:
Believing thus, 1 will direct the Au-
ditor to disregard the law, unless your
representatives shall take steps to so
amend the Constitution as to remove
ally doubts as to a conflict between the
two. If such steps are promptly taken
/ will withhold my order until the PEG.
pie shall have opportunity to express
their wishes.
The REGISTER is of opinion, in re-
ferring to the second communication
printed on the subject this morning,
that the Democratic party, when it
meets in State Convention, should not
las this correspondent suggests) repudi-
ate and denOunce the course of the Gov
Eernogand Auditor, but it should declare
in favor ofimmediate steps looking to
placing in the Constitution the will Of
the people on this subject.

THE Republican politicians were al
ways thrifty set and economical OF
their own pockets. When they had
both Houses of Congress they unblush-
ingly appropriated money to the Re-
publican campaign funds and sent
rowing commissions hlther and thither
for the purpose of manufacturing po-
litical capital for their party. They re-
newed that game at Washington this
winter; but the Democratic House set
down heavily on the appropriation.
