MAJ. j. T. Byrd said he was sometimes

ties they had 10 thoroughbred stock to
compete with Able marie, Angus a, Rock-

The Newspaper Press.


Galveston News
No newspaper that dejerycs the name
will deliberately publish lie; and no
newspaper writer who hopes to obtain
position Of rospectaoility or stability in
his profession will endeavor to impose
on an editor hy giving utteranoe Goa lie.
In fact "a The Sun intimates, the news.
paper is really more interested than the
reader in securing the accuracy of all
published statements. All the condi
tious and reasons for the existence of
the newspaper, as such, forbid that it
should publish falsehood deliberately
One Of the chief duties Of the news.
paper is hunting down aud exposing
falsehoods. Aud here it might be OBJ
served that politicians and Government
fuuCtionaries are the chief stumbling
blocks to the newspaper in its efforts to
obtain correct information In fact, it
night be said that those who live off the
people, whether legitimately or illegiti.
mately, are naturally disposed to cult.
waite obscurantism, and will seldom fail,
when they have an opportunity, to elude,
befog, or lead astray professional seekers,
gatherers, and puryeyors Of information
for the public In this regard the good
and bad and Indifferent politicians are
pretty much alike.
The newspaper is the only palpable
and induhitble connecting link except
the tax collector between the American
citizen and his Government; and as the
the real newspaper is supported by the
people. instead of 10y the officials and
politicians, the ordinary rules of com
mon sense would indicate to the news
paper the wisdom aud propriety of Civ.
ing correct information. But it is not
necessary to 20 into an elaborate argu-
ment to prove to the people that between
the newspapers and the politicians
speaking generally and making due al.
lowance for exceptions--the newspapers
are by all means the most worthy of
trust and confidence.
Even politicians elevated to great
places on a Sunday school platform have
been sometimes known to equivocate, il
not to preyarica;e, and the whole tribe
will at all times bear close watching.
The people and the newspapers under.
stand each other, aud no politicians,
however elevated they may be, can
succeed in epgenderiug distrust between
them.

The Presidents Appointments.

Il is said that in all cases where the
President has made nominations 10 Gil
vacsncies caused by the suspension Of
incumbents with fixed term Of office,
he Senate will call upon him TO give
reasons for such suspension, and his
probable course in the event of formal
demand Of that character is being much
discussed
Upon the old common law maxim
thai every right has it, remedy, it would
seem that the absence Of power on the
par, Of the Senate to enforce such de
mand would be conclusive against the
right. The foct is that when the Senate
has made It's demand aud the President
hes refused to comply with it, the mat.
/ ter will be at an end True, the Senate
can reject all nominations Of persons to
GIl vacancies caused by suspension; but
it would hesitate 10 pursue 20 unjustilia.
| bic course. il would be Just M
reasonable for the President 10 demand
OF the Senate the reasons for the rejec
ton Of his nominations, rs for the Sen
ate TO demand Of the President bis rea.
CONS for making suspensions. Tie duty
and jurisdiction Of each are clear and
independent. The President alone has
the power 10 suspendg and the Senate
alone has the power TO confirm. The
President determines not only the fitness
ef the person who il in Office, but the fit
neos Of the person who is to be nominal.
ed The Senate hos nothing TO do with
his CONF lusion. as to the Office holders but
1t may review his decision as to the ft
ness Of those whom he recommends fO
appointment to office.
We believe that the President vii
stard upon his constitutional rights, anC
not be swcrvcd from his conviction o.
duty by the threats Of the Republican,
in the Senate II he shall refuse to yieC
to their illegal demands, and they shall
exercise the power conferred upon then
by the Constitution, in spirit Of re
sentiment, they will not be sustained by
the better sentiment Of the country, cs
pecially since during the years wber
there were Republican Presidents, Tn,
members of that party never called in
question the power of he President &c
suspend at will. Indeed we doubt il
there is II Republican Senator of promi
nencc who has not at some time aided
in securing ,he suspension of some officer
Of the government, for political or even
personal reasons
If President Cleveland shall refuse Ia
give the information desired, aud shall
couple such refusal with the declaration
that he shall make removals whenever
he sees proper, it will be the kind Of
talk we have been anxious to hear. And
IT., afterwards he shall cause vacancie,
aud make nominations without reference
to what his political enemies may say OF
! think OF him, we shall be better satisfied
