SENATORIAL BUNCOMB.


The Senate makes an assumption in its
war apon the President that il is a co-ordi.
nate in the Government. To admit it would
make it necessary Tor the Senate to be in
perpetual session. for il it holds q co-ordi-
nate power this power would be executive.
Yet this power was not intended to reside in
the President either by the Constitution, by
custom, or by the common sense application
of business rules TO the art of government.
The Senate can not be considered legisia-
tive coordinate. For this it can only exert
in connection with the House. Mr.. Madison
on CHS subject said: 1.-THE Senate is asso-
ciated with the President by way of excep-
ton, and can not. therefore, claim beyond
the exception" On the contrary construc-
ton. he argued. ''the Senate must sit con-
stantIy; officers would make parties there
10 support them against the President, and
by degrees the executive power would slide
into one branch of the Legislature; on the
most favorable supposition, il would be
two-headed monster"
The Senatorial assumption does ot even
leave wo-headed monster. 1t is attempt
ing to make Itself into a one-headed mon
ster. that, like dewitt fish. may strange all
coordinate government with its hundred
tentacies Of sophisticai construction. 1t Is

A Soldiers Latter.

Colonel /. B. Mcdonald, Editor OF the Fort Wayne
Journal:
saR-I understand that you were q dele
gate to the Indiana Encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic, and hence 1
address you personally relative to certain
resolutions which l see published in an edi-
torial of the Gazette this morning. The res
siutions are as follows:
Whereas, 1t has come to the knowledge of the
grand body that the flag Of our country has been
lowered to half-mas oyer the Government De
partnents at Washington in honor Of one Jacob
Thompson, OF Mississippi: and,
Whereas, IL is well demonstrated b. history
that Jacob Thompson was the man who organized
men and purchased infected clothing to spread
csftarious diseases through the North. and to
burn Northern cities, thereby involving our
soldiers fam1ies an the horrogs Of an uncviiised
warfare that appalled, the Christian world; there
fore be it
Resolved. By the department eucampment Of
indiana that TO carry out one Of the tenets OF the
Grand Army OF the Republic 70 protect the dag
snsI1hed, we can bat condemn the use Of the
flag to honor 5acob Thompson, or any who aided
or allotted to inaugurate such unhoiy and savage
warfare.
What desire to know is whether or not
the above resolutions were adopted by G. A.
K. epcampment. IL they were. it is a dis
grace to our organization. and every Demo
GRAFT soldier should have got up and left the
camp. The time has passed for such work
mean and contemplate though it be. The
main reason why these resolutions should
have been kicked" under the table is that
their introduction and adoption was intend
ed as an attack upon the able and dis
GRguished Democrats who now preside over
The several departments in the Cabinet of
President Cleveland.
They are political resolutions, and we will
bet five-cent piece that some disgruntIed
eK-Repubiican ofice-hOlder was the father Of
them.
And now in conclusion. old comrade. 4
think it was your duty to object to them
