Congress a ad the Veto.
The president has vetoed.the army
appropriation bill because of the
clause attached prohibiting the use
of troops at the polls on election
days. The indications now are that
by the advice of Mr. Stephens and a
few others, the democrats will back
down from the stand taken by them
on this iS3ne and will vote the money
for the support of the army without
any conditions as to its*' xpt nditure.
There may, at one time, have been
good reasons to question the expedi
ency of tacking legislation on to
appropriation bills, but since the
democrats have maturely deliberated
upon it and decided that the best in
terests of the country required such
a course and since the matter lias
been thoroughly and exhaustively
debated by both Houses of Congress
and by the press, it does seem hard
to Cud a reason for backing squarely
down at this stage of the proceed
ings. The imp rtinent veto message
of the fraudulent president should
receive no more consideration than
by law'naturally attaches to it. If
the peace and prosperity of the
country would be promoted by re
stricting the power of the president
over the elections, let it be done,
even if it requires the disbanding ol
the army to compass it.
If our representatives imagine that
they reflect the sentiments of their
constituents by yielding to the mi
nority on this question they greatly
err. For many long, weary years the
people have looked forward to the
time when both branches of our
national legislature would be demo
cratic, with the earnest hope that
when this did occur the character of
the legislation then would be chang
ed and the interests of the great
mass of the people duly considered.
But it now appears that the republi
can minority is to continue to rule,
as heretofore their majority has done,
and that the democratic' majority is
easily intimidated into submission
by a cry of “revolution.’ 7 “rebellion”
and “stopping the wheels of govern
ment.” The universal sentiment on
the subject here is that the demo
crats should pass the appropriation
bills with the riders attached ami ad
journ and come home. If Returning
Board Hay-sand his cabinet do not
want the money voted on those con
ditions they need not take it, and the
country would be nonethp worse off
for a brief rest from their ru'e.
The Duty on Ouinine.
A V ashington Dispatch says:
A movement is on foot amongst
several preunneut southern members
to secure the passage of a bill to re
peal the duty on quinine. It ap
pears that the use of his valuable
drug the south lias become so greai
that ihe people are beginning to
press li-.eir n preseutaiives in congress
;o take some action looking to a re
dnetion of i:s cost. It is claimed that
the proposed repeal does not involve
the question ot protection, as the
cinchona is not grown in the United
States, and therefore t<> admit it free
of duty would riot c-.n flict with any
home interest, so far as production is
concerned. The s.-u'ln rn members
who have this question in charge
have informed Mr. Wood and otiier
member? of the ways and means
committe that ilie manufacture ol
quinine is confined to bin a single
establishment iu the United Sales,
which is located in Philadelphia;
and, without desiring to interfere
in the least wish its manufacture,
they claim that their constituents are
emit led to consideration, especially
in being relieved of the payment ol
not less than one hundred and fifli
percent mole for the drug than they
would be compel! d to if the duty
were removed. It is intimated by
those interested that Mr. Wood has
consented to the preparation of a
hill to repeal the duty, us stated, and
has expressed a willingness to rep rt
it without delay, provided he shall
have assurances that the southern
representatives will support it. Mr.
Wood thinks that he can pass it un
der a suspension of ihe rules. The
southern members, asfar as tliey hove
been nvised of the movement, favor
it and express some impatience to
have it go into effect, immediately, as
the approach of the malarial season
renderes a reduction in the cost of
quinine more important than at any
oilier time in the year.
Sew Mansic Temple, Rome, Georgia.
The Masonic fraternity of Rome,
Georgia, have just completed a
handsome and commodious Masonic
Temple which will be dedicated on
Thursday, May 22J. 1879, by James
M. Moblev, Grand Master of the
Grand Lodge of Georgia. At the
same time other appropriate Masonic
ceremonies will fake place. Ail Ma
sons are fraternally invited to be pre
sent with their Rome brethern on
that occasion. Arrangements have
been made with the different Rail
roads for reduced rates of fare.

The Atlanta Constitution is doing
splendid work in the cause of a dog
tax law. A tax of one dollar per

i be dogs the'State could raise in a
bundled years.
The Cox .Trial.
The trial of Cox for the murder
of Col. R. A. Alston was begun in
the Superior Court in Atlanta last
week and is still pending at this
writing (Tuesday). The evidence,
both direct and circumstantial,
makes it one of the blackest, blood
iest murders in the annals of crime
in Georgia. The evidence for the
defence as reported in the papers of
the city scarcely mitigates even the
ugliest features of this most diaboli
cal murder.
There is a bewildering array of
distinguished counsel on both sides
of the case. Whether they will be
able to so blur and bedim the out
lines of the testimony as to bewilder
the jury and make their verdict but
little better than guess work remains
to-bo seen.
The case is attracting the widest
attention in all parts of the United
States. One night during the ren
dering of the evidence the correspon
dent of the New York Herald sent
that paper a telegraphic synopsis of
the evidence given that day consist
ing of three thousand words.

No matter how poor, needy and shuk-

A very large share of the interest
in the debates in Congress during
the present extra session h is centred
upon tbe question whether or not
appropriation bill.-- should be made a
vehicle ol general legislation. An
appropriation act, pure and simple,
•merely authorizes the officers of lln-
Govtrnmcnt to expend certain speci
fied sums i’or certain spec.tied ob
jects.
The practice has grown up of at
taching to the appropriation biils
some pivv:.-i ms of general law. The
"salary grab” of a ft-w years ago was
made law by being a ided lo an ap
propriation biii as a “rider.” So a
year or two later a very important
change in the rates of postage ivas
made iu the same manner.
A speaker in the recent debate in
the II ■ use of R.-j-r Sell iatives gave a
table showing that over three hun
dred changes of law Were in ule in
appropriate m bills m the fourteen
years from 1SC1 to 1875.
Notwithstanding this record, there
is probably not one member either of
the lions: or the Senate who would
not admit that it is best to avoid the
practice to far as possible. The ob
jections to it are strong. It is mix
ing up two tilings whiohure wholly
distinct ir.'ll) each other. A law
may create the necusily for an ap
propriation, bur the then-ty of appro
priations is, that they authorize the
expenditures which previously exist
ing law iiu; made nccessafy.
Yet under our system of party
government, it must always !r per
mitted to every party, upon its or.’ti
responsibility, \> disregard .general
mi.-s of conduct. A parly not
woolly in possession of the Govern
ment feeling strong enough to at
tempt. to force its m -asuivs through,
has.the right, or at least the power,
to try to do it. If it fails, or il it
succeeds, its decisions must go back
to tile peop! -, who alone arc- the ar
biters to pats judgment upon its ac ts.
