rOSEDT
During the late war, when the expenditures
of the Government frequently amounted to
several millions of dollars in a Bingle day,
and when the air was rife with rumors of
extravagance and corruption, nothing did so
much to allay the prevailing fears of finanoial
ruin and to maintain public confidence as the
oourse pursued by some of the resolute Re
publican members of Congress and by Edwin
M. Stanton. When a public offioial or con
tractor was accused, on plausible grounds, of
dishonest practioes, searching investigations
, were speedily instituted, and when guilt was
proven appropriate punishments were in
flicted. The efforts of the Democratic press
to make capital out of these aoousations were
invariably nullified by this straightforward
policy. If Congress and the Secretary of War
Lad condoned the offenses of every man who
. professed to be a Republican, and if mere
lip-service to the Union and liberty had con
ferred a license to steal and cheat, the debt
would have inevitably been swelled to tens of
thousands of millions, repudiation would
have become unavoidable, and the Rebellion
could not have been crushed. Among all
the mighty influences which oombined to
save the nation, none was more powerful
than the emphatic manner in which
contractors and offioials of high and low de
gree were warned that Republicanism could
not be used as a shield for rascality. Now
that peace is restored the pressure of the
debt still compels the recognition of the
principle of action which saved the pub
lics credit from prostration. We trust
that Republicans will continue to rule the
country they have rescued and redeemed,
but the American people will not and should
not permit partisan professions of any de
scription to justify the retention of heartless
knaves in office. Honesty is an indispensable
qualification for every responsible position,
and the politicians who lack this essential
virtue should be kicked out of office and kept
out, though they have spent their whole sub
stance and their best energies in the servioe
of the Republican party. The only decent
excuse for the existence of partisan organiza
tions must be found in their real or presumed
ability to advance the publio interest, and
when they beoome the apologists or suppor
ters of leaders who are notoriously dishonest
and corrupt they cease to deserve the respect
or support of intelligent and consci
entious citizens. Bearing in mind these
general assertions, which are so self-evident
that they need no elaboration, we are aston
ished at the frequency with which publio men
accused of peculation or of improper conduct
in office are zealously defended for purely
partisan reasons. If a Republican official
has been guilty of a grave offense, Republi
cans have a1' far deeper interest than the
Democrats in urging his removal from offloe,
for they are incited to this oourse not only by
a desire to protect the national interests com
mitted to their charge, but by the necessity
of warding off from their organization all
Bhare of the odium which properly belongs to
the offender alone. When Republican organs
beoome champions of criminal offioe-holders
they suffer their zeal to outrun their judg
ment, and do more than the most earnest
Democrats to weaken publio confidence in the
great party of the nation. No publio man,
high or low, is above criticism, and the per
manence of the Republic depends in a large
degree upon the ability and willingness of
the people to keep a tight rein upon their
greatest favorites. Recently General Howard,
who has gained a very strong hold upon the
affeotions of all patriotio and philanthropic
Americans, by his useful servioe during the
war and by his devotion to the interests of
the freedmen, has been formally accused of
sundry publio offenses, and these charges are
now undergoing Congressional investigation.
If the charges prove to be groundless we will
sincerely rejoice in his aoquittal, but if he
really is guilty, we hope he will fce quiokly
disgraced and deposed from office. He has
been arraigned before a tribunal which, so
far as it can be affeoted by feelings of par
tiality one way or the other, is prepossessed
in hU favor, and if his official conduct is un
impeachable he has nothing to fear from
Republican Congress. If, however, Fernando
Wood can substantiate any material portion
of his allegations, General O. O. Howard
should be disgraced and dishonored, though
he were the head of ten Freedmen's Bureaus
and the hero of a hundred battles. Neither
bravery, philanthropy, or professions of
Christianity or of Republicanism should be
made an impenetrable cloak for corruption.
Injustice to the whole body of the people,
and fraudulent Disappropriations of the pub
lio moneys, cannot be atoned for by devo
tion to any class or fidelity to any principle.
The man who systematically resorts to the
practice of putting a penny into the urn of
poverty for the purpose of aoquiring oppor
tunities to take a shilling out belongs to the
very meanest species of the human race, and
any attempt to palliate such conduct involves
as great a blunder as a party can well commit.
The most serious danger that now menaces
the Republican organization arises from the
' misconduct of men whom it has elevated into
high positions, and it can find safety only in
treating them as unmercifully as it treated
Andrew Johnson after he abandoned its
cheriahed principles.
THE CASE OF OEORQIA.
Wnrac Congress assembled last December
one of the first questions taken in hand was
that of the status of Georgia. The Demo
cratic party in that State had manifested the
utmost bad faith, taking advantage of thoir
superiority in point of numbers to
oust all the regularly eleoted oolored
members of the State Legislature, and
winding up their reactionary career by re
jecting the'fifteenth amendment. Without
much needless delay both branches of Con-,
gross passed a bill whioh provided for con
vening the old Legislature, its organization
to be effeoted by summoning all
persons who had, aooording to
the proclamation of General Meade,
dated June 25, 18G8, been elected mem
bers, and excluding all persons ineligible
under the fourteenth amendment. This
Legislature was to be regarded as provisional
until the further aotion of Congress, and it
was required also to ratify the fifteenth
amendment before the representatives
of the State should be admitted to
their seats. The bill passed finally on the
22d of Docember, and in January the Legis
lature assembled, the organization being
completed on the 3d of February, in tho in
terest of the radioals, several members de
clared ineligible being unseated in both
houses, and their places supplied by the can
didates who had received the next highest
number of votes, three new members of the
Senate and nineteen of the House being thus
smuggled into these bodies. The fifteenth
amendment was also promptly ratified on the
same day.
This was the beginning, and in many re
spects it was bad enough. But the tribula
tions of Georgia were not at an end. On
February 25 General Butler reported from
the Reconstruction Committee a bill for the
restoration of the State to representation in
Congress on precisely the same conditions as
were required in the oases of Virginia and
Mississippi. This bill was recommitted, but
was reported back by General Butler on the
3d of March, and passed by the Home on the
8th, with the following amendment, offered
by Mr. Bingham and known generally as the
Bingham proviso:
"Neither shall this act be construed to extend the
olllclal term of any offlcer of said State beyond ttie
term limited by the Constitution thereof, dating
from the election or appointment of such officer;
nor to deprive the people or Georgia of the right,
under their Constitution, to elect Senators and Ka
rrenentatlves of the State of Georgia in the year
ltf0; but said election shall be held in the year 1870,
either on the day named In the Constitution of said
State or such other day as the present Legislature
may designate by law.''
There was a terrific fight over this amend
ment, Mr. Bingham urging its necessity on
the ground that the effect of the original bill
would have been to perpetuate the present
State Government and Legislature for two
years longer. The amendment passed finally
by a vote of 114 to 72, all the Democrats
voting in favor of it, and such Republicans
as favored the views of Bingham and Farns
worth. On the final passage of the bill the
vote stood 152 to 55, divided strictly by party
lines, and including in the affirmative Gene
ral Butler, the leader of the opposition to the
Bingham proviso, who explained that he
voted affirmatively because he desired the
ratification of the fifteenth amendment, and
would not be found voting with the Demo
cracy on a party issue.
Then the Senate took the question up, and
kept hammering away at it until two o'clock
this morning. The first square vote of im
portance in which this body indulged was on
the 11th of April, when an amendment
offered by Senator Williams, striking out the
Bingham proviso and inserting a provision
that the next election for members of the
Legislature shall be held in November, 1872,
was rejected by a bare majority of one vote
24 yeas to 25 nays Senator Revels, whose
maiden speech had been an earnest appeal
in favor of extending the term of the present
government, being absent from the capital
on a lecturing tour. Another week was then
given to buncombe speeches, and last night
at half -past 11 o'clock the voting commenoed,
winding up at 2 o'clock this morning, at
which hour the bill as it came from the
House was so modified that, as Senator Sum
ner remarked, it would not be recognized by
"the oldest inhabitant." It passed finally in
the shape of a substitute for the whole bill,
offered by Senator Pomeroy, whioh declares the
present government of the State provisional,
constitutes it the Third Military District, and
provides for an election for members of the
Legislature on the 15th of November next.
This substitute was first passed as an amend
ment by a vote of 30 to 23, and afterwards
in the shape of a substitute by a vote of 33
to 23, all the Democrats and the Republican
opponents of the Bullock regime favoring it.
Before the business was wound up an amend
ment was carried, by a vote of 32 to 2G, whioh
authorizes the President to suppress violence
in the State, and still another, by a vote of
48 to 9, which provides for calling into ser
vice the militia of the State. As thus doo
tored up, the bill passed finally by a vote of
27 to 25, the opponents of the Bingham
proviso generally voting against it.
The action of the House upon the bill is
problematical, but it is to be hoped that it
will be prompt and decisive, whether favor
able or unfavorable, and that this miserable
Georgia muddle will be speedily ended, so
that both branches of Congress will have an
opportunity to turn their attention to mattors
of vital importance to the country, without
any more needless and vexatious delay
in AT AltCH O EXPEDITIO
The Senate Committee on Foreign Relations,
before whom the rival Arotio explorers, Dr.
Hayes and Captain Hall, have been pressing
their claims, has agreed to settle the dispute
by referring the whole matter to the Presi
dent, and for that purpose has reported a bill
authorizing an expedition to the Polar regions,
and appropriating the sum of $100,000 for the
purpose. The selection of a commander is
left with the President,' and he is further
authorized to detail any offioer of the publio
servioe to accompany the expedition and
to mse any suitable publio vessel. The
soientiflo operation of the expedition are to
be prescribed by the National Academy of
Sciences. If such an expedition as this must
be fitted out, it could perhaps be done better
in the manner indicated than in any other,
and it is certainly preferable that the whole
matter should be placed in the hands of the
President for him to select the best man that
can be found to conduct the exploration, than
that Congress should undertake to deoide
upon the claims either of Dr. Hayot, or Cap
tain nail, or to go into an investigation to
determine which of them has made the nearest
approach to the North Pole.
The expediency and propriety, however, of
expending a sum like $100,000 at the pre
sent time for any enterprise of this kind
are at least open to doubt, and we hope that
the House of Representatives will hesitate a
long time before it makes any suoh appro
priation. We have so many practical objects
i elating to onr national welfare upon which
we can lay out all the spare funds we nave on
hand, that it scarooly seems worth while to
throw $100,000 into the open Polar Sea,
unless we can get some better return for it
than the mere knowledge that such a
sea exists. The problem of the open Polar
Sea is curious and interesting, certainly, and,
under ordinary circumstances, there would be
no serious objection to the extension of Gov
ernment aid. No real benefits, however, can
be derived from such an exploration, and
burdened as the people of the United States
are with an enormous debt and heavy taxes,
it is the worst kind of folly to use the publio
money for the purpose of solving the mys
teries of the pole, no matter how interesting
Ibey may be.
