The Republican Senator made a stout fight for the steamship subsidy lobby, and nothing short of the unbending, determined opposition of the Demoera tic House defeated thia shameless waste of the people's money. The Senate neutralised the effort of the Houe to reform the land laws and save what remains of Ute public domain from the harmea who are after

the President aad the attacks which
have been made upon him for discharging his duty are exceedingly discreditable to those who make them. The attacks proceed upon the general assumption that any maa who was a soldier ia entitled to have his claim for relief honored ia full in the precise form ia which he makes it. aad without regard to tho facte. Of vure nothing could be more absurd. Many of the bills are laws of Congress overriding tho decision of the Pension Bureau. Tho President acta, therefore, as a judge of appeal, and de-
aides upon ute lacie in stwbbw. capitulating them ia his meaaage. The aaaertion that the constitution does not contemplate this kind of detailed revision of the acts of Congress by the Executive is idle and wholly unfounded. To the extent of the veto Uw President is made a most important part of the legislative power, and he acta under the precise obligation that binds aay member of Congreas. His duty requires him to consider details quite aa much as the duty of Ute Representatin rMHiire him to do the same thing.
and when it k obvious that details have beea neglected by Congress, it is the especial duty of the Executive to correct the result of the neglect. Mr. Bavne, of Pennsylvania, in his extraordinary vituperation of the President aa "this man" who was almost transcending his authority, and 'no better than any other American

Secretary Lamar called the attention of the country to the importance of repealing those laws. In regard to the DcserlLand lawa the Secretary said: 'Good government seeks to secure to the eitiaen Ute undisturbed enjoyment of his natural rights. Among those is the enjoyment of hia

that fact is not a reason that Mr. Bayne aad his associates should be allowed to take raonev improperly from the public treasury.

But it would be better to say mat Congress ought not to furnish frequent occasions for its exercise. ' The number oi President Cleveland's vetoes is great, bet they all affect what is substantially the same act of legislation, an act of infinite details, namely, the granting of pensions. The veto power is one of the most important and valuable cheeks of our Government. It belongs to the system which wisely separates
the republic from the simple democracy, or the constant, immediate rule of the majority. It ia a power provided by the majority for its own
