NOT MONEY ENOUGH.
Discharges and Reductions to Take Place
in the General Land Once.

Discharges and Reductions to Take Place
in the General Land Once.
"a two-edged sword cuts both ways" is an
old adage and one that a number Of demo-
cratic Congressman are now realizing is q
truthful one
During the last Congress a number Of demo-
cratic statesmen became fred with q desire to
practice economy, and began BY cut
ting down the appropriations for the
general land Office, which will necessitate the
discharge of sixty-eight clerks In the classified
service and the reduction Of special agents from
fifty-two to thirteen in number, beginning July
next
These same Congressman are now pacing the
corridors Of the Interior Department with
large drops Of Precipitation on their brows,
caused by earnest and sustained efforts to keep
their constituents from being among
the clerks who will be dropped and
to obtain other constituents appointments as
special agents. There is a great pressure fo-
these special agencies They are no.
year and IS day for e1per ses
and are IN great demand by constituents, but
the economic statesmen are not meeting with
unvarying success in their efforts and are not
likely TO. it is said
The work of the land Office will be seriously
will be physical impossibility to keep up the
record with this heavy break in the working
force.
There is CONSERVATION and dismay among the
clerks. for no man knoweth but he will be one
of the doomed sixty-eigbt, and that the fatal
yellow envelope will come. like . thief in the
night, and take away his livelihood.
The land commissioner will probably have Q
regular monkey-and-parrot time about July L.
He must make the reduction Of sixty-eieht
clerks, for there will be no appropria-
ton out Of which to pay for their
services after that date; but how
to make the selection is the burning question
with him. Each clerk naturally thinks that be
should be permitted to remain and will bring
all OF his influence to bear to secure his own
retention. There will be wailing and lamenta-
ton when the si1ty-eight unfortuuates are
marchedup into line to walk the plank and each
one will probably look upon the commissioner
as regular pirate. for it is no laughing matter
with them-they will be brought face to face
with the bread and butter question.
1t is understood that the selection of those
TO be dropped will be made upon the basis Of
their efficiency record, as this plan is the only
practically and fair one.

THE RrGHr OF VETO.

The power or right of veto. without adequate
provision for its enforcement in cases Of dis
obedience to its mandate. is practically value
less. Where obedience is a matter of choice
and not of legal obligation and enforcea-
BILE as such. it is difficult to see how
the veto power in cases OF disobedience is
of any value. To veto the election Of directors
or professors without legal power to enforce
the veto by the removal Of the person vetoed
and then leave to the body whose elections are
thus vetoed the exclusive right to nominate,
place the body possessing the right Of veto abb
solutely in the power OF the body whose acts
are vetoed.
Under the original plan of the seminaries,
known as the old school seminares, the general
assembly had the power to remove the profess
sors, as well as to approve or veto their appoint

teaching, in SO far as it is practicable, the
general assembly could, under the power thus
possessed over the seminaries named, unless
the power has been surrendered by the COM
pact Of 1870, issue such instructions rs might
secure such uniformity of teaching But the
general assembly has, by the terms Of the
charters Of the civil corporations no direct con-
troll over the property Of the seminaries, except
over such property as it has given them.
The power vested in the general assembly by

as teachers, and the power of discipline,
cannot be said to be control over
the seminaries. affecting their teaching and

powers the general assembly NAV reach indi-
viduals, and thus indirectly affect the teaching
in the seminaries, we do not regard the exercise
of these powers as within the term control"
