SAW THE DANGER LONG AGO


In 1871, Representative Dawes OF
Massachusetts, when an attempt was
made to prevent a Southern represen'
tatlye, with regular credentials, from
being sworn in as member of the
House. took the very same ground Mt
Roberts now takes as to the danger OF
such proceedings, to the people. In his
reply to his colleague. General Butler
Mr. Dawes said, as quoted by the Balti-
more Sun.
"The adoption of the policy recon-
mended by the gentleman would put
II In the power Of any member on the
suggestion 10 him OF any citizen, good
or bad, upon true or false allegations OF
fact, 10 exclude from his seat any mem
ber-elect, and thus TO defeat represen-
tation, TO reduce the number OF mem
bers IN the House and TO accomplish,
through the power OF the House mere
selfish. vengeful or partisan purposes
And no legislative body can AFFORD to
tolerate such principles OF organization
without infinite danger to Itself and to
the country
The questions involved are not new.
They have been calmly and carefully
discussed at a time when the absence Of
agitation rendered a correct decision
more certain than at the present time.
II is never safe to decide questions Of
vast Importance amidst popular tumult.
IL Is al such times that presidents are
particularly valuable. because they are
established without partisan reference
to the particular points about which
the agitation is raging.

INSANITY GROWING.

himself sacred elephant or a hump

The Journal does not think there is
much danger. Uncle Sam h young and
