The Bossier banner. [volume] (Bellevue, Bossier Parish, La.) 1859-1952, 1896-02-13

Under the constitution of the
United States a twC-.hirds vote of
both houses of Congress is necessary
to pass a bill over the presidents
veto. In most of the states two
thirds vote is necessary to override
the veto of the governor, but in
some states only a three fifths or
even a majority vote of the two
houses of the legislature is sufficient.
Four states, Rhode Island, Della
ware, North Carolina and Ohio,
have refused to give the governor
the veto power. Jefferson held that
the veto power should be very
sparingly used, and the earlier
presidents seldom exercised it. John
Adams, Jefferson and John Quincy
Adams never vetoed a measure
passed by congress. Up to Jack
sons administration the veto power
had been used only nine times
twice by Washington, six times by
Madison and once by Monroe. Jack
son vetoed nine bills, and after him
the exercise of the right became
more frequent. Up to the admin
istration Of Andrew johnson no
measure had ever been passed over
the presidents veto. A large ma
jority of both houses of congress
were opposed to Johnson's policy.
He quarreled continually with con-
gress and repeatedly vetoed bills
that were generally passed in spite
of him by the necessary two-thirds
vote. President Hayes vetoed a
large number of bills, including one
for the free coinage of silver, one to
restrict the Chinese immigration
and several appropriation bills with
riders attached. Since 1869, Presi-
dent Cleveland has vetoed the
largest number of bills, more than
all the previous presidents put to.

| vate pension bills.

Record of a Criminal Lawyer.

We see a paragraph floating ABOUT
in the newspapers which says that
Congressman Dave Culberson, in the
course of his career as an advocate,
has defended 10 men charged with
murder in the first degree, and that
not one of them suffered the extreme
penalty of the law. This is an extra
ordinary record truly, but we want
to know more about it before we ex
press oar admiration of Judge Cul-
berson's achievements in this line.
II all these men were innocent and
Judge Culberson's skill saved them
from unmerited punishment; if the
verdicts obtained through his skill
we're according to law and evidence
and substantial justice, then, indeed,
it is record of which any man might
well be proud. But we fear that this
is not so. The probabilities are that
Judge Culberson defeated the ends
of Justice in a large majority of these
cases. If such be the fact, however
ereditable it may be to his skill and
ability as lawyer or an advocate, we
fear it must be said that Judge Cul'
berson has been a very dangerous
enemy to society. When a lawyer
acquires such mastery in the art OF
defending men accused of crime that
he can obtain yerdicts fagrantly
against justice, he becomes an enemy
of law and peace and order. His
personal life may be, and often is,
upright, honorable and above re
proach, but he is not the less the
alder and abettor of crime. Violent
and bloody men feel that they may
put less restraint upon their fierce
passions because there are lawyers
trained to defeat the purpose of the
law. Hate and malice and revenge
and pure blood .thirstiness feel less
fear of the courts when perverted in
genuity can make mockery of judi
cial trials. If because of Judge Cul
berson 100 murderers have gone IN
whipped of justice, how many more
murders have been committed be
cause of the immunity enjoyed by hi:
clients? 1t may be that for ever.
guilty man he has saved the blood o
an innocent man has been wickedl
she'd.
= Judge Culberson is man of tn
highest personal character as we'll a
man of great ability. His privat
life is without blemish, so far as W
know, and his rugged honesty {
character is is we'll known. But 70
more reasons than one we are gla
that his people sent him to Congress
and thus put him out of the bushes
of protecting crime from merite
punishment.
It must not be understood, however
that the criminal lawyer is chiefly t
blame for the frequent miscarriage
of Justice. The state of the law
admirably adapted to the akill of th
criminal advocate. From the begir
ming to the end of his trial the GRIN
inal is hedged about with legal bal
riers, and at every step in the pros
ress Of the case avenues of escape al
obligingly left open. Judge Cube
sons son, the present Governor {
Texas, in an able message to th
Legislature set out the defects in OF
criminal procedure with admirabl
force and clearness. These defect
should be cured by legislation an
the State given fair chance to pr
tect its citizens from violence an
murder by Furnishing the guilty.

Senator Mitchell is the ablest speaker
who is to address our citizens during the
present campaign. His reasons why
free silver Republicans should vote for
Mckinley and old established and
honorable Republican principles are en-
titled to great weight, and we antici-
pate, therefore, the presence of all those
divided from the party on this sole
issue.
The reporter, hearing some beautiful
music, apparently of the mandolin, but
tounding much frmer and more melo-
dious, was attracted into the Jacobsen
book and music store this morning. and
was much surprised to find that it ema-
mated from beautiful piano. He was
| then informed by Mr.. Jacobsen that
chat is the latest. Ingenuity will cer-
tainly never cease, and the world of
music does not lag in the procession.
So great is the demand for Senator
Mitchell from all parts of-the state that
the state central committee finds it hard
to meet all calls. 1t is about the same
with Geer, the fame of whose effective
speaking has spread in all directions.
! Sherman county has sent at least 20 de-
mands for Mitchell, but no date in that
part of the state has yet been fixed for
him. Senator Mitchell's time has been
fully occupied all of this month, and he
has numerous dates in October, includ-
ing many places in Eastern Oregon.

The mckinley zouaves.

The Mckinley club of zouaves was or
ganized last night at the city council
chambers.
Mr.. Hayward Riddell was chosen
temporary chairman and Dave LeInerson
temporary secretary, and later the or
ganization was made permanent. The
president stated the object of the meet
ing, and in response to a request for fur
ther information Mr.. Kerns said that G..
j. Farley had sent for forty zouave cos
tunes and sixty cape uniforms.
Mr.. F. w. Wilson moved that civil
and military organization be perfected /;
that the civil part consist of president,
vice. president, secretary and treasurer ;
that the military part consist of cap
tain and first and second lieutenant; (;
and that an election of these officers be
made at once. The motion carried, re-
sulting as follows: Hayward Riddell
president, L. S. Fritz vice president,
Dave Lemerson secretary and treasurer.
These were by acclamation. The mill
tary officers were chosen by ballot, Levi
Chrisman being the unanimous choice
for captain, and j. r. McAvoy and A.
B. Kerns receiving an equal number oi
votes. On motion of Kerns, McAvoy
| was chosen hrst lieutenant.
Captain Chrisman then made briei
speech, in which he said the time was SC
short the club must get to work and drill
at once and it was important for every
member to be present. The under.
standing was reached that Thursday
night be given to practice in Armory
hall, to learn few of the simplest evo
lutions for the night following, on which
Senator Mitchell is to speak.
The club then adjourned, to meet at ths
council chambers at the call of Presiden

tain Chrisman.

pIishing Good Results.
New York, Aug. 11.-Leader Schoenfeld,
or the Brotherhood OF Tailors, today de-
MED the statement that another confer
ence to settle the difficulties between
the two organizations had been requested
by the Brotherhood.
sixty cooperative shops were opened
this morning by Brotherhood tailors, en-
ploying about 500 men.
schoenfeld declares that by Saturday
next sufficient cooperative shops would
lie opened to employ all the men, and
the unsigned contractors would be unable
to obtain hands.
Over 200 contractors have signed the
brothcrhood's new agreement. Their shops
emlpoy 1000 men.
The Baltimore and Philadelphia tailors
have invited Schoenfeld to those cities to
address meetings Of union tailors 1t is
believed the unions of those cities will
refuse work that may be sent them from
this city formerly done by the New York
strikers.
The Pantsmakers' Union report steady
increase in the number of contractors sign
ing agreements.
