senator Proctor.

The following recognition of Senator
Proctors work is from the Moultre Coun-
ty, ILL.,, News, of which W. G.. Convey,
Brattleboro native, is editor and proprie-
tor: The reelection of Senator Proctor of
Vermont is a matter of national moment,
because he is national man. No man
has retired from the Senate for many years
whose loss was so great as that of Mr.. Ed
munds. In no such case in recent years
mas a state been so fortunate in filling such
a vacancy as has Vermont in sending Mr..
Proctor to the Senate. His service in the
war department was of such an efficient
and practical character as to fix the atten-
ton of Congress upon him as man GER
tain to make his mark in national politics.
His services in connection with coast, har-
Dor and border defences were of the most
valuable and notable character. For this
reason there was wide feeling that the
public service would lose much by his
transfer to the Senate. But it was found
at once that his influence there in all mat
tiers pertaining to military affairs would be
such that he would be able to accomplish
even more in advancing the important
work of the national defence than even as
secretary of war Vermont will continue
as heretofore, leader in the Senate.

The Legal Proceedings In the Home
stead Riot Cases

The Legal Proceedings I'm the Home
stead Riot Cases.
During the riots great crimes were com
mitted. The authorities now try TO bring
the guilty parties to account in the criminal
courts In view of the gravity Of these
cases, the chief justice of Pennsylvania
was called to preside in the county court
of Allegheny county, and at the opening of
the October term he charged the grand
jury, defining the law applicable to the Of
fence of the rioters. He pointed out with
clearness the nature of treason against the
state, and showed that when a combination
of men abolish the regular administration
of law in any section of the state, and by
violence drive away the legal authorities,
setting up their own edicts and enforcing
them, every act wilfully done in furtherance
of the combination is an act of treason, and
every person committing such acts is guilty
of treason as a principal. This definition
of the law excited surprise and questioning
comment in many quarters. But it is in
reality only the old common law of our
fathers by which free government and civil
order have been established and maintained
ever since they were first known. If the
application of this aw is a surprise now,
it is because we as nation and as state
communities have been for so long time
free from disturbance by local instructions
that the necessity for it has been largely
forgotten.
Under the imperative and clear instruc-
tions of the court the grand jury could not
fail to find true bills for treason against the
conspratOrs who organized and carried out
the rebellion; and, in fact, thirty-one of
the leaders were thus indicted But the
community from which this jury was drawn
is largely made up of men whose allegiance
TO law is secondary to their class prejudice,
or to the influence of demagogues. And,
as If to counteract the effect of the charge
of the court, and of their own findings I'M
der it, the same grand jury returned in
dictments for conspiracy, for murder, and
for aggravated riot against every man who
took an active part in defending the prop
erty and rights of the milling corporation
against the rebellion. This action seems
to threaten serious difficulties in the en-
forcement of the laws II the grand Jury
men fairly represent the people from whom
the trial juries are drawn, it will be impos-
sible to secure a conviction of crime even
against the men who brutally beat and mu-
tilated their own defenceess prisoners aft
ter they had surrendered their arms and
persons under a pledge of safety.
