PRESENTED TO
GENERAL BENJAMIN HARRISON,
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES,
BY u. NJ. O'CONNOR.
SAN ID TEXAS.

The name of General Harrison is set en-
tirely with diamonds, the remainder of the
inscription being tastefully engraved. Be-
low the first plate is a second heavy gold
star. with the letters T f X A S in the five
points. In the center of the star is a fine
engraving of the front of the Alamo. Be-
low the star is a second plate, segmental in
shape, bearing on its gold face the inscrip-
ton: ''Thermopyla had her messenger of
defeat, but the Alamo and Refugio had
none." Between the star and the second
plate, on either side, are smaller plates in
scribed respectively. "Tippecanoe 1911"
and "San Jacinto 1886" The top of the
back is protected by a gold plate and on
either arm are silver plates. The plate on
the right arm is inscribed, Encourage
ment to home industry, $780," and that on
the left, Protection home industry, y
1885," On the back is a silver plate with
the inscription, Manufactured and En-
graved by Charles Puppe-L. ROuvant,
San Antonio, Tex" The work on the chair
is of the finest description, and the whole
matter was at Mr.. O'Connor's request kept
a profound secret. The chair was shipped
by express to Washington on last Thurs
day, and was presented to General Harri.

readers. The suit to test the validity of
the act creating the commission has
been brought in the court and set down
for hearing at a day fixed, butthe Judge
seeks to change the venue to the Senti-
mel Office and to try the case by a jury of
Democrats. He manifests his contempt
of the court of which he hopes to be-
come a part by this course of proceed
ing. The public will look with suspicion
upon the merits of a case when a party
to it endeavors to try it in the newspa-
pers, instead of the courts.

THE f~actiOnal fight between ex-GOv-
ernor Gray and Senator Voorhees, is at
the bottom of the d~isgraceful course of
the Legislature. The contest between
these two for the United States senator
snip two years hence is back of the whole
business. The unseating of Senator
Carpenter enabled Gray to secure a hold
Over Senator in his place and made it
necessary for Voorhees, to get even. This
wss done by unseating Senator BichOw-
ski, of Vigo, and seating Grimes. There
was no case against BichOwski and not
even the shadow of apretext for unseat-
ing him. 1t was done simply and solely
to give Voorhees, a vote two years hence,
just as Carpenter was unseated to make
p vote for Gray. In the matter of steal
ing seats the two honorable aspirants are
about even. The political legislation of
the session has had its origin in the same
contest, and has been forced through to
benefit n or the other of the aspirants.
The friends of both have acted the part
of political wreckers, subOrdinating and
sacrificing every interest to the advance
ment of n or the other of these self
seeking demagogues. If the people have
not lost their capacity for self-govern-
ment they should punish both of them,
in the only way that demagOgues can
appreciate, by driving them out of public
life

THE SUPREME COURT COMMISSION.

Judge COfforth has printed a brief, ar
gument and decision in the Supreme
Court Commission case, sustaining the
constitutionality of the act and his own
appointment. 1t is a poor lawyer who
cannot make a plausible argument ON
either side of a close question. Judge
COtfroth is not a poor lawyer, and we
presume his argument is the best that
can be made on his side of the case.
That he should offer any at all illus
trates the weakness of the claim that
the Legislature may establish courts
and appoint judges thereof, for here we
have the remarkable spectacle of a leg
islative judge passing on the legality of
his own appointment. We do not say
that Judge Coffroth's decision was in
fiuenced by the fact that he has a large
personal interest in maintaining the con-
stitutiOnality of the commission, but we
will say that just such conditions as this
are apt to lead to what the Sentinel calls
ga debased judiciary" A Supreme
Court, or five members thereof, sitting
in judgment ON the cOnstitutiOnality of
the act creating it, or of other laws en-
acted by the body that created it,
is apt to fall under the suspicion
of undue bias. No doubt it was this con-
sideratiOn, in part at least, that induced
the trainers of the Constitution of 1850
to do away entirely with the appoint
ment of judges by the Legislature, as
practiced under the old Constitution,
and make all judges elective by the peo-
pie, except in the appointment to vacan-
cies by the Governor.
Assuming hat Judge COffroth's argu-
| ment is as strong as can be made on his
side, we think it shows the weakness of
his case and of the legislative claim to
exercise executive power. A large part
of his argument Is given to establishing
the proposition that "the Legislature is
invested with all legislative power, ex-
| cept such as is expressly denied to it."
1t is a waste of time to argue that prop
| ~ositiOn, for nobody denies it. Certainly
| the Governor has not. The COnstitu-
| ton expressly vests alllegislative power
in the Legislature. But the same in
strument expressly vests all executive
power in the Governor, and we
challenge Judge COffrOth, as a
lawyer, to say that the appointing power
is not An executive power. If, as he
rightly argues, all legislative power is
vested in the Legislature except such as
is expressly denied to it, he must admit
that all executive power is vested in the
Governor, except such as is expressly
taken out of his hands or conferred
somewhere else. Where in the Consti-
tuition is the power conferred on the
Legislature of appointing judges of the
Supreme Court? Judge CoffrOth's argu-
ment is good to prove the right of the
Legislature to establish courts and create
offices, and equally good to prove that it
has no right to appoint judges or fill the
Offices it creates. The former is a legis-
lative, the latter an executive power.
Every word in the Judges argument
would go to sustain the right of the
Legislature to create the Office of Deputy
Governor and fill it by appointment, con-
ferring on the Deputy Governor
part of the powers now vested in

GIVE THEM TIME.

The present rush of Office-seekers in
Washington is not a healthy nor a hope
full sign, nor a gratifying sight. 1t is
not in accordance with the better senti-
ment of the Republican party, and we
have no doubt it is a disagreeable ex-
p~erience to the President and his ex-
ecutive assistants. He and they had a
right to expect that after their first in
duction into Office they would be allowed
a brief respite from the exciting scenes
of the Inauguration and time to attend
to pressing matters of business I'M
familiarize themselves with their new
official duties and arrangements. No
such consideration seems to have been
shown them. Thus far their time and at
tention have been wholly absorbed by
the crowd of Off e-seekers. These are
presumably good Republicans, and
therefore friends of ours, but we must
say in all candor that we think they are
doing themselves, the Republican party
and the new administration harm by the
unseemly zeal and energy with
which they are pushing their claims
for office. 1t was this sort of
thing, feur years ago, that gave
the Republican press a chance to ridi-
cule the hungry and thirsty Democracy.
IF the present rush continues much
longer, the Democratic press will be JUS
titled in turning the tables on us. And
it was precisely this, also, which con-
tributed more than anything else to en-
barrass and weaken Mr.. Cleveland's ad-
ministration, by compelling him to make
hasty and bad appointments. Repub-
Eicans should take care not to commit the
same error. If the Republican party is to
redeem its pledges of improving the adj
ministrati0n of the government, pledges
which contributed in no small degree
to its success, the President and heads of
departments must be given a chance to
act deliberately and inteligently in max
ing appointments. The public interests
do not demand aclean sweep so much
as they do a discriminating sweep.
The President has a right to expect that
he be allowed reasonable time in which
to make needed changes, and the Jour
nal earnestly hopes he will insist on hav-
ing it. He said in his inaugural:
1t is entirely creditable to seek public of
fee by proper methods and with proper
| motives, and all applicants will be treated
| with consideration. But / shall need, and
the heads of departments will need. time
for inquiry and deliberatiOn. Persistent
importantly will not, therefore. be the best
support of an application for office.
The President and heads of depart
ments should stand firmly by this posi-
ton, and not be driven from it by a
clamor which does not represent the best
elements no the best interests of the
| Republican party.

Punishment for Bribery.

There viii Soon Be Opportunity for Securing
Punishment for Bribery.
Terre Haute Express.
The Express believes that nine men out
OF ten In VlgO county will believe the act
OF the State Senate yesterday was an out
rage. hat is to say. but one tenth will
give expression to an honest expression of
their opinion to the contrary.
When this contest was originated as q
means OF support for Mr.. Voorhees, re-
strikers and the Democratic organ here
was that Mr.. BichOwsky had received q
majority of the votes found in the ballot
boxes by reason of bribery of voters. That
then. but as the testimony in the case
developed the fact that no instance of
bribery could be proven in behalf of Mr..
BichOwsky, and plain proof was produced
as against Mr.. Grimes. there was a change
in the programme and the talk abOut dis
tinguishing marks on the tickets was made
the chief reliance of the Voorhees, conspira-
tors.
Now, without proper hearing or consid-
alton, the Democratic Senate gives to Mr..
the office which wen bride money did not
secure for him. AS one senator said in the
debate yesterday, it is "the climax of pOlit-
ical scOundrelism.'
While it is true that there is no ap-
peal from this decision it is likewise true
that there will soon be opportunity to Sc
cure punishment for the crime of bribery.
Yesterday a number of charges for VIOLA
ton of election laws were dismissed in the
United States Court at indianapolis be-
cause there was no basis for prosecution.
They were part of the drag-net political
work of Leon Baily, the assistant district
attorney, whose failure to substantiate the
general charge of corruption on the part of
the Republicans in this State is being ex-
posed in this n The Express hopes
for better and more effective prosecution
and before the end is reached no doubt the
act of the State Senate yesterday will be
that decision by a verdict of guilty in a
criminal prosecution.

THE SUNDAY JOURNAL.

The Journal of Sunday, March 10. will be
a very attractive number. 1t will contain,
among other things. the second installment
of Maurice Thompson's charming story,
1.-THE Lily of Rochon:" a letter of friendly
advice to President Harrison, from the pen
of Robert j. Burdette; Bill Nye will take
the public into his confidence in a letter
concerning his naughty ancestors; Clara
Belle will present her usual interesting and
chatty gossip of the fashionable world, and
the Journals poets will contribute their
share to the general entertainment. In adj
dition. the paper will contain the custom
airy chapter of home, social and personal
gossip and the latest news from the nation
al capital and the world at large.

A OoLIsH statement is published,
protesting to account for the cOnstruc-
ton of President Harrison's Cabinet. 1t
says that having decided on Mr.. Blaine
for Secretary of State, he became sud-
denly impressed with the idea that she
must not let Blaine and his friends DOM
mate the Cabinet, and the result is the
appointment of seven men who were
and are to a certain extent antagonistic
to Blaine" The story proceeds on the
theory that the Cabinet is a deliberative
or, perhaps, executive body whose con
illusions are in some sort binding on the
President. There is nothing of this.
The President may ask the opinions or
adv ice of his Cabinet on all questions,
but is not obliged to follow it OH any.
No decision is made on any question of
executive policy till the President makes
it, and he may override those of all the
Cabinet. Therefore, it was not neces-
sary for the President to appoint seven
members of his Cabinet, or any other
number, to counterfeit the influence of
Mr.. Blaine. The President himself
counteracts all other influences in his
Cabinet.

OUR Washington dispatches foreshad

OUR Washington dispatches foreshad-
ow important action by the President in
extending the time for applying the civ
il-service rules to the railway-mail serv-
ice. The order issued by President
Cleveland a few weeks before the close
of his administration made the rules
take effect March Is, the effect being to
tie the hands of the new administration
and close the door against needed re-
forms. President Harrison will proba-
bly, extend the order till the 3Oth of
June. This will give the new Postmas-
ter-general time to make such changes
in the service as are demanded and en-
able him to reinstate some of the best of
the old employees without going through
the form of acivil-service examination.
This will be an excellent move and
clearly in the interest of the public serv-
ice. We may add that it has been warm
ly urged by the Journal.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1889-03-08
In approving the new election law,
Governor HOvey added the following:

Approved, because it may tend to purify
our election laws; but / am afraid it will be
found, in practice, intricate, obscure and
expensive. Without the enactment of a
registration law, as demanded by our Con-
stitutiOn, our elections will remain open to
corruption and fraud.
Time will prove the correctness ofthis
opinion. The Legislature ought to have
passed a much better law, and might
easily have done so, but the caucus and
gag-law methods of the majority would
not permit. The best that can be saidof
the new law is that it is a step in the
right direction, but the chances are ten
to one it will have to be retraced and
made over again. The refusal of the
majority to pass a registration law is a
plain disregard of the Constitution,
which peremptorily imposes that duty
on the Legislature.
