PRESIDENT'S PREROGATIVE.
The "0. B." Dreadful Bore of the El
press, is Not Happy Yet.
Editor San Antonio Light
"D. 8.,” the constitutional law writer
of the San Antonio Express, attempts to
ward off my blunt shaft by another ter
rible dlsh-upof the Federal constitution.
He says: ‘"Men are not apt to put them
selves to the trouble of answering feeble
arguments.” Very true, “dreadful bore."
they simply call them “bosh.” and do
their best to discourage a repetition of
the imbecility; but just think of the pros
pect before us. “D. B.” tells us that he
writes to please himself; of course he is
highly delighted with himself every
time he airs his conceit through the
columns of the Express. In these com
munications "D. B." is able to tell the
benighted readers of the Express what
a miserable idiot Judge Cooley is in
comparison with “D. B.;” what a weak,
“rotten” logician Senator Sherman is.
and so on.
“D. B.” has access, evidently, to a
copy of the “Federalist,” and depends
upon dishing up quotations from that
primal source of constitutional con
troversy, but “D. B.’s” quotations
and "D. It 's" deductions do not
agree, and it would be simply fruit
less waste of time to attempt to debate
with him on this point. For the pur
pose of this article it is sufficient to ca'l
attention to tbe concluding sentences
of his effusion, in which he maintains
that the “tenure of office law was un
constitutional, and was never legally
enacted,” and in this proposition Presi
dent Johnson agreed with “D. B.” Now
for the reasons why it “was” uncons 1-
tutional:
First.—“ Because it was in conflict
with the practice of tbe Government.”
Astounding logic I A decision of tbe
Supreme Court would not count with
“D. B.” when it came to the “practice
of tbe Government!”
Second.—“ Because It attempted to
vest in the Senate a power not desig
nated by the Constitution."
What power? to say “yes” or “no” to
the President's nominations and suspen
sions? Ridiculous.
The “third” and “fourth” are but
repetitions of tbe second reason, but the
conclusion certainly contains the milk
in the cocoanut. He says: "The act of
March 2. 1867 was not legally and
constitutionally passed, as iff South
ern States at that time were
excluded from representation in Con
gress.” This settles it. If tbe “ten
Southern States” bad been on hand, it
would have been all right. From 'til up
to the date of the restoration of repre
sentation of the seceeding States w e had
no “legal, constitutional” government
in this country, unless it was the king
dom of Jeff Davis. The so-called Con
gress of the United States was an illegal,
constitutionally incompetent body body
incapable of passing any law *D. B.’ (and
all offals ilk) feels in the least bound to
obey or respect. Of course I can go no
further with "D. B.” Our roads fork
here and tbe further we travel tbe
farther away we get from each other.
Leaving “D. B.” to bis conceit, let us
quote from the great bead of tbe party
of modern reform, G. Cleveland, who
after bis election as President made tbe
follow ing public declaration:
“There is a class of government posi
tions which are uot within tbe letter of
the civil service act, but which are
disconnected with the policy of an ad
ministration that tbe removal therefrom
of present iucumbents, in my opinion,
should not be made during the terms for
wblch they were appointed, solely on
partisan grounds and for the purpose of
putting in their places those who are in
political accord with the appointing
power.”
This was a square endorsement of the
tenure of office act. but the performances
of Mr. Cleveland have not kept pase
with bis declarations, and this is why
the Senate and the country waut to
know why he has suspended several
hundred officers, such as he described In
the declaration quoted. Tbe action of
tbe President is entirely under and by
authority of tbe statute wbicb D. B.con
temptiously consigns to his unconstitu
tional waste basket, and the constitu
tionality of tbe law has yet to be prop
erly questioned. Bi.cxt.
THOS ZOPFS
With the exception of Joe Murphy, W.
J. Scanlon is the only representative of
pure Irish comedy on the stage, and in a
few years will undoubtedly have tbe
field entirely to himself. Few actors at
the age of 28 years have endeared them
selves to the households of tbe lands as
he has, nor is there a name more re
vered by the children or more familiar
to the wives and mothers. Scanlon was
born in Springfield, Mass., on the same
street and year as the writer, and early
commenced to exhibit a love for music,
which has since made him famous as a
song writer the world over. His great
est charm Is simplicity. He says; “If
you can sing or tell so'mething a little
child will repeat, your fortune is made.
You cannot dig in tne depths of rhetoric
and have tbe little darlings understand
you.” He composes all his songs,
both words and music, and with
bls musician prepares them for
publication. Tbe question has so
often been asked him why he does not
study music that be has about made up
bis mind to do so. He will put in three
years more in this country and Aus
tralia. where lie has an excellent offer,
and will then go to sunny Italy and tit
himself for music writing. That in his
great ambition. At present he is edu
cating a brother and sister and has un
seltisbly put off the development of his
own grand possibilities until their wel
fare is assured. An hour sebat with him
is a pleasure and a profit. He is Peek-n
800 in the parlor as he is on the stage
and many a home was enjoyed his pres
ence as well as his inspiration. He is
inclined to be social; is an entertaining
conversationalist and a close student of
human nature. To say that he is an
Irishman is to give him his just dues,
and like the pure and elevated minstrel
Is always ready to sing a song or crack
a joke.—Toledo Post. January 3.—At

The Socialist Leaders.
London. February-24.—Tbe hearing in
the case of Burns, Hyndman, Champion
and Williams, the socialist leaders ac
cused of having incited the recent riots,
was resumed to-day. The session was
devoted principally to hearing the testi
mony of newspaper reporters as to 'be
exact language used by the defendants
in their inflammatory speeches.
Joseph Chamberlain, President of the
local Government Board, and Jesse Col
lins, M. P. and author of the "Three
Acresand a Cow” amendment on which
tbe conservative ministry were de
feated, were present during tbe later
stages of the hearing. Tbe magistrate
after the reportershad concluded their
testimony, announced that be intend
ed to commit all the prisoners for
trial. Mr Williams’counsel upon thia
arose and contended that his client was
“outside the indictment” and could
not, therefore, be included in the
trial. The lawyer argued that the
words used by his client were not so
strong as language in almost daily use.
Pointing to Mr. Chamberlain, the coun
sel said: "When the right honorable
member for Birmingham has employed,
in the House of Commons, even stronger
language than that Imputed to mv
client, he has been applauded.” Tbe
counsel declared that this prosecution
was Intended to shield Mr. Chamberlain,
the Home Secretary and police, who are
answerable for tbe whole trouble.
Hyndman, who defended himself, de
nied that there was any case against
either himself or Ills companions. He
said: “If lamto be condemned on my
speech, tbeu Mr. Chamberlain should
stand in the dock with me.” Hyndman
also contended that the whole blame
rested on the police who could have pre
vented the rioting.
Mr. Gladstone's Private Secretary
was the next witness, but nothing of
importance was elicited from him. I lie
prisoners were remanded until Saturday,
when they will be committed for trial
for misdemeanor.
Repudiates the Plot.
Sai i Lake, February '24.—Five persons
are under arrest for assault on United
States Attorney Dickson, Frank J. < an
non, Hugh Cannon, sons of of George Q.
Cannon, Angus Cannon, his nephew, S.
A. Kenna and James Buckley. Indica
tions point to a matured plot to assassi
nate Dickson. A postal from George Q.
Cannon was sent to Dickson to-day, ex
pressing horror and detestation lit the
assault and hoping that he would be
lieve be bad not anything but condemn
atlon for the act. lie would have writ
ten before, but his strength was not
equal to tbe task. Dickson returned e
reassuring message, assuring Cannon
that be bad never entertained a thought
of his countenancing the assault, and
hoping for bis speedy recovery. George
Q. Cannon sent word that he hoped none
of his friends would bail Dickson's as
sailants, and all but Kenna are in jail in
default of sureties.
Chinese Not Advised
Sax Francisco, February 24.—1'he As
sociated Press representative called at
the office of tbe Chinese Consul-General
to ascertain the origin of the published
report that he bud issued a proclama
tion advising the Chinese to return
home. The Consul-General’s Secretary
emphatically denied that any such pro
clamation had been issued. He stated
that tbe Chinese Consul bad made ar
rangements with steamship companies
to carry poor, sick and unemployed Chi
nese back to China for four trips at half
rates. Notices containing this were
sent out, requesting Chinese to take ad
vantage of these cheap rates, and these
facts probably gave rise to the first men
tioned report.
Down on Foreigners.
Berlin, February 24.—A1l workmen of
foreign birth have been discharged from
employment in the government dock
yards. This actioa lias been taken be
cause of disclosures in the case of Cap
tain barauw, recently convicted of hav
ing sold plans and information of gov
ernment fortifications to Major Grizot,
of the French general staff. Captain
Sarauw is a Dane. No man of German
birth lias yet been arrested for this of
fense. It is thought no person of for
eign birtb will be permitted to remain
in the service of the German War De
partment.

Hew to Advertise.
A contemporary in some “bints on ad
vertising," says: “Another thing which
publishers have to contend with is that
the results of advertising are not always
visible to patrons, many of whom can
not understand why custom cannot be
directly traced to the source where they
expended their money to obtain it.
Business is like a river with many trib
utaries, and In which it is impossible to
trace every individual drop of water to
tbe spring' from whence it came. But
If a journal is selected for advertising
purposes that readies time and again
tbe persons most likely to be interested
in the solicitation, that paper is certain
ly a sure fountaiu-head of profitable
trade in the stream of patronage far be
low. Temporary advertisements in a
small way will not produce an imme
diate or permanent increase of business
any more than a light shower will affect
the depth of water in a well, but by per
sistency in the use of printer’s ink in the
right direction the results sought will
be gained in the end with interest.”

Value of a Life Like Hancock's.
From Ilie Chicago News.
In all the eulogies that have followed
General Hancock's death, tbe central
quality of his character has been recog
nized as true and unswerving manliness.
In this respect he was and is an exam
ple and model to all Americans.- As
General Sherman said at the reunion of
of the Loyal Legion in Cincinnati, Wed
nesday night: “You and 1. each and
everyone of us, are the better for the
life wbicb this man lived. Our country
is better for it. Our boys in school are
the better for it. You. yourself. I refer
ring to ex-president Hayes], can point
to this man who, born of bumble par
ents, reared at tbe common schools,
went into life with very little help, and
rose by being a true, honest, and brave
man and soldier, beloved by everybody,
mourned by everybody.” Such a life
was indeed worth living. There were
two points in General Hancock’s career
emphasized by the speakers at the same
reunion which should not be allowed to
pass without especial recognition. All
familiar with the inside history of the
war remember how union success was
ever checked, contracted and neutralized
by the wrangles and personal ambitions
of many of the leading generals. The
rule w ith many of them appeared to be
success under me or discomfiture under
a rival. How dearly this dog-in-tbe
manger spirit of our generals cost the
country no one can tell; but it bore more
heavily on Lincoln than any other
feature of the struggle, and the
North often grew disheartened while
its generals wrangled over their
petty differences. General Hancock
never joined in these. As ex-Pres
ident Hayes said: “Without undue am
bition or personal self-seeking be won
bis way to fame by splendid conduct in
an unparalleled series of battles, the con
fidence of brother officers and soldiers
outrunning bls advances in rank and
applauding every step he gained in pro
motion. When jealousies and intrigue
were rife in the great army to which he
belonged neither his devotion to tbe
flag nor his zealous subordination to his
commander was ever Questioned. He
burned only to do and dare greatly tor
hie country.” Perhaps some might say
that the desire for that glory to be won
doing his whole duty under the eyes
of his countrymen was the inspiring
influence of the superb soldier in
the battles of the rebellion. But
General Sherman has presented a view
ot General Hancock that excludes such
a thought. “1 knew Hancock on the
plains,” says old Tecumseh, "where
there was no chance for glory, no hope
of fame, no desire to attract notice,
nothing but abuse and hardship. He
was tbe same conscientious man. anx
ious to do right, anxious to fulfill tbe
orders of bis government, anxious to
complete a job after which he had been
dispatched, and generally successful.”
In the one leading principle of Gen
eral Hancock’s conduct, the anxiety to
do right, lies the secret of tbe success of
his manhood. In it lies the best lesson
of his brave and brilliant life.
Correct You Are.
Galveston Tribune: When carrying
concealed weapons is made punishable
by two years In the penitentiary, and
the law is relentlessly enforced,there will
be fewer fatal brawls in Texas. As mat
ters now stand the toughs and buliys all
go armed, thus forcing many peaceably
disposed citizens to “tote a gun” in self
defense. Pistol carrying was well
enough in an early day when every man
was a law unto himself, bnt that day has
gone, and the festive pop must follow
