that were alleged. consisted almost
wholly Of the presidents attempts to
remove Stanton without the consent Of
the senate.
This most important trial In Ameri-
can history began on March 5. 1868,
with the senate chamber crowded and
Chief Justice Chase Of the Supreme
court In the chair.
There was q general expectation
that the senate would convict, no mat

Of eager partisans flocked to Washing
ton to enjoy the spectacle Of q White
House eviction-to see ANDY walk the
plank" Senator Ben Wade Of Ohio
was confident to the last that he
would be called on, as president Of
the senate, to take Johnson's place.
His inaugural is said to have been
written and his cabinet selected, with
General Butler Of Massachusetts, for
secretary Of state.
As the roll Of the senate was called.
amid a hushed suspense. the Republic
can senators all voted for conviction.
until the chief Justice asked. "Mr.
Senator Fessenden, how say your Is

''Not guilty." answered the distin-
guished senator from Maine, who had
been In Lincoln's cabinet. The party
alignment was broken and It was again
broken In another moment by Senator
Grimes Of Iowa, who had been stricken
with paralysis under the strain Of the
trial, but who managed to struggle to
his feet when his name was called.
Tfumbull of Illinois, an old friend Of
Lincoln. was another man Of ability
and distinction among the seven Re
publican senators who broke away and
joined the Democrats. Yet there were
thirty-fve votes for conviction against
only nineteen for acQuittal. just one
less than the two-thirds necessary to
convict.
BY . single vote the unique indie
pendence of the American presidency,
which makes 1t the most eminent and

that congress, not the president. should
fix the terms of peace for the south
