supplement the Constitution by such legls-
lation.
The first enactment of this description
was passed under stress Of partizanshlp and
political bitterness which eliminated in
the Presidents impeachment. This law
provided that the Federal officers to which
it applied could only be suspended during
the recess of the Senate when shown by
evidence satisfactory to the President to be
when incapable or disqualified to perform
their duties and that within twenty days
after the next meeting of the Senate it
should be the duty Of the President ito re-
port to the Senate such suspension with ev-
idence and reasons of his action in the case"
This statute, passed in 1867, when Con-
gress was overwhelmingly and bitterly op.
posed politically to the President, may be
regarded as an indication that even then
it was thought necessary by a Congress de-
termined upon the subjugation of the Exec
utve to the legislative will, to furnish IT.
self law for that purpose, instead of at
tempting to reach the object intended by
an invocation Of any pretended constltu-
tional right. The law which thus found its
way to our statute book was plain in its
terms, and it's intent needed no avoWal.
If valid and not in operation it would JUS
tify the present course of the Senate and
command the obedience of the Executive
to its demands. 1t may, however, be re-
marked in passing that, under this law, the
President has the privilege of presenting
to the body which assumed to review his
executive acts, his reasons therefor, instead
of being excluded from explanation or
judged by papers found in the departments.
Two years after the law of 1867 was pass

at Fort Yates. ~Dakota-Fins Specimens
of Observation-Disclosures wooing.
The feature of the Clark Institutes
annual meeting was an address by Judge
Sage on his personal experiences among
the Sioux Indians, at Fort Yates, Dakota
in the summer of 1881. He was there at
the time the formal transfer was made OF
the care of the Indians from the war to
interior department. He said that Sit
ting Bull, the great Chief, was not there.
He would not come until he saw how the
others were treated. One of the chiefs,
Gaul, he said, had a stride like Salvini.
As o as the transfer was made this
chief and Others Immediately appropria-
ted clothing and other articles in sight.
The fort there vas simply a space Of
ground inclosed by a picket fence, inside
of which were the officers quarters. The
Indians said they could eat up the garri-
son IN Il few minutes if they cared to.
lie described the Sioux Indians as fine
specimens Of manhood. They had finely
developed chests, small arms and
splendid legs. They were symmetrically
perfect. The dances they had, which he

When these dances were going on the

heard five miles.
One way the young Indians had Of
wooing the sluaws he described. He
saw three young bucks standing together
one day with their blankets wrapped
about them. They waited until the
young squaws came along, and then one
OF them stepped out in front OF her. and,
throwing half of his blanket around her,
pulled her up to him. If she did not
try to get away it was considered that
she liked him. II she did he stepped
back and another fellow tried it, and 30
on, unless one of them was successful.
The judge had on exhibition a lot of
souvenirs Of his trip in the shape Of
clothing and ornaments, implements Of
war, etc, which he had purchased or
had been given to HIM Among them

which had been worn by Sitting Bulls
daughter, sleeping Water" She gave
it to Mrs. Sage.
The ornaments were all very hand
some. He related his experience in
visiting Chief Gaul in his tent. While
there he unconsciously stepped on
ground which they considered sacred,
ON account OF the death of a child. The
only way he could make amends was by
giving the chief presents. Judge Sage
said that he thought that they were mis-
understood and moderated. He thought
that If they were treated fairly and
honestly they would be all right. Among
themselves they We're perfectly honest,
and trusted each other implicitly. In
the division Of food given them they
were very careful to give all a fair share.

A DOUBTFUL MEASURE.

Whatever the fate of the olcomargarine
bill upon It's return from the committee on
agriculture, it is clear that the ablcst sem
ators such as Edmunds, Beck and Nor
rill-a are doubtful of its constitutionality.
unless viewed strictly as a revenue meas
ure. Whether so viewed, for the sake of
evasion, or not, it is class Legislation OF the
most fragrant kind, and its adoption would
set a dangerous precedent. Hereafter
should another class desire protection of
like character, all that need be done would
be to lay n specific tax on the hostile pro-
duct. 1t is submitted that such is not the
high province of the American congress.
To punish the sale of articles likely 20
counterfeit Others OF greater value, except
when their real nature is plainly shown.
would be proper enough, but an attempt
to prohibit-whether directly or indirectly
all sale of any article not claimed as in
furious, shows a craftsmanship, itself of
an oleomarcarine character. 1t is difficult
to believe that the senate will pass, or
that the president will sign, a bill so clear
ly intended for the benefit Of a single in
dustry. 1t is not difficult to ~foresee that
unless 1t be made to appear as a reve-
nue. bill-in the event Of its passage, the
supreme court would question its validity
with effect.
