HANCOOK IN LOUISIANA. My highest prite will he to perform tho dutics of my new aphere, not in the fiterest of prire tles or purtisana, but for the benollt of my country, the honor of my profession, and, £ trusty Als for tho welfare of the poopie oums mitted to my cnre.—/fancuck on taking command al New Orieana, It was Gen. Hancock's brief carcor of 6 fow months as Military Governor of the district embracing Louisiana and ‘Texas, during x part of 1867 and a part of 1863, whieh commended him to tho Confederates asacandidate for the Presidency, and tha above exttact is the single text which is now cited to show even the semblance of clyic experience for the inan whom the Confed- erates now desire to elect the Chict Magis- trato of the Repubile, : ‘The language quoted rends very honestly and patriotically when standing alone. [ts real significance, however, may be found fn the elreumstanees under which Gen, Han- cock assumed command of the Departinont of Louisiane and ‘Texas, aMt the time in question, Andrew Johnson, then Acthig-President of tho Untted States, was in conflict with Congress over the en- foreement of the Reconstruction acts. John- son had shown himself a trattor to tho party which had elected him Vice-Presitent and to the prinelples which that party repre- sented, Coming Into the Exeentive ofica at the close of the War, and continuing fn power during the erltienl period of recon- struction, he did what he could to neutralize the logient results of the Nation's victory, and.sought to restore the ruling enste in the South to the same position It had occupied before its rebellion, without regard to tho effort that had been made to break down tho Goyermuent or the change of conditions which lind been wrought by the War and the constitutional amendments, ‘Yo this end Johnson prostituted the patronage pertatn- ing to ils oflice except so far ag his disposal thereof could be reatrained by tho Senate, In moaklug milltary assignments, how- ever, he cont do as he plensed. Gen, Sherldan hnd been in command of Louisiana and ‘Texas, and had endeavored to enforce the Reconstruction acts in such matneras tv protect the Union people, both white and Diack. ‘This did not suit Jonson, who looked about for an officer who would follow the Juhnson “policy” regardtess of the con- stitutlonal amendinents and tho luws. He selected Gen. Hancock and appointed him to take Gen, Sherldan’s place, Gen, Hancock’s misston was fully compre- hended and avowed before he proceeded to ‘New Orleans, He went first to Washington and remulned thore x few weeks to become thor- oughly imbued with the “ Johnson polley.’ During his stay In Washington the Confed- erates evidently determined to ebnult him publicly to this polley, for they gave him a serenade ut which he was required to make n speech, yirtunily ndvocating the thourles which he was to carry out In practice by as sisting In the nutiifieatton of the Keconstrite- tion faws. Ile was coached by Jeremiah Binek, subsequently of Johnson's counsel, and by Gen, Steedman, whe are sald to have compused: Hancock’s high-flown proclama- tlons and directed lis administration at New Otlenis. : 3 But a short timo previous to Gen, Han- cock’s assuming command at New Orleans, Gen. Sheridan had written an oficial letter to Gen, Grant, In which he set forth that the lives of Union men, both white and black, had no protection from the Confederates in Texas, and Gen. Grant had actually recom- mended the declaration of martial Jaw th that Stato as théonly means for onforciny order, punlshing crime, aud protecting the political and civil rights of the oppressed ani persecuted classes pending the politteal re- construction of ‘Texas, and ng a warning to other States in thaSouth where tho ex-Itebels were growing turbulent and aggressive, In Loulsiana Gen. Sheridan had issued an order preseribing rules for political registration in necordance with the Iaws which Congress lund passed. But Gen, Hancock, as was ex- pected of him, ignored from the beginning of his command tho outrages that were com- mitted, revoked Gen, Sheridan's orders, Jeft the registration of voters completely at tho discretion of tho Confecterate local au- thoritles without regard to the Reconstruc- tlon acts, and in every way encouraged and alded thoex-Rebels In nequiring o supremacy which It was the purposs of Con,ress’ and the Union people to beat back until such time as the unreconstructed were prepared to necept tho political consequences of the wae thoy had precipitated, “Notin the interest of parties or par- tisans,” is a plirase that has a taking sound when repented at this time, but It was mean- Ingiess when Gen. Haneock wrote It, or when somebody else wrote It for Gen, Han- eock, There wes no partisan question at Issue within his jurisdiction at that thne, ‘The only, question over which he was to have any authority was whether or not the Reconstruction acts should be carried out In good falth, whether or not the ex-Rebols of Loulstana and ‘Texas should be permitted to exercise political rights from which thelr own treason had excluded them, and whether or* not the negroes and the Unton whites should enjoy the political rights which had been secured to them at the suerifice of so many thousands of lives nid go many millions of dollars, In all these questions, Gen. Mnncock leaned uniformly to the Rebel side," Nigger-killing” went on In Toxas without any protest on his part, and was goon after Inaugurated in Loulsl- ani, ‘There was no partisan question at Iustte. 7 It istrue that it was Gen. Hancock's brief career in New Orleans that endeared iim to tho Democrats, but it was a carcer tliat de- veluped neither patriotism nor eapaclty for government, but only an abject submission tuthe Johnson policy for restoring the Rebuls to thelr old-time aseendoney, without pun ishing them in any manner for thulr treason, tind without providing for the protection of the blacks and the Union men living among them. THE SMOKE NUISANCE, ‘The railroad managers are showing au ut- ter Indifference to the welfare of a elty at whose gitfferance they enjoy so niany valuable priviloges by opposing the propoaed ordi nines fur the suppression of the smoke mule sance, ‘There is no reason why locomotives should be excepted from tho ordlnange, and it would probably vitlate the proposed ordi. nance to make such an exception. Lf it be truo that the rallronds are making voluntary cfforts to reduce the volume of smoke omit- ted from thelr Jocoruotives,—some by adopt- ing smoke-consumors and others by Insisting upon more careful flring,—thon the propose ordinance wilt assist them in thelr good work by making thelr engineers aut firemen accountable tothe elty authorities as well us to tho ratlroud authorities, If the ruilroads are notmaking such efforts as they clalin to re- duce the frightful volumes of dense smoke generated by their locomotives in the city, then they ought to be compelled to do It, In any case, therefore, there Is no no injus- tice or hardship to the railroads fn the pro- posed ordinance, ‘The shuple- fact ts, that 16 has been abun- dantly demonstrated that tho smoke nulsance can be abated by appliances that nay bo adopted and careful Arka, and conseaitently itought to be abated. ‘The plan for acecom- plishing this now under consideration by a Committes of the Council 1s 1 wise one.

If rallrond engineers can properly reduce tha volume of tho sinoke emitted from their locomotives without the use of smoke-bumiers, then the ordinance will involve no expanse In their ense; if not, then It will pay the rallronds to adopt 9 smoke-burner, which, as we understand, can be applied to n rallrond engine ata cost of a very few dollars, Now that the peoplo know tho smoke nulsanes can be abated, they have aright to demand that the Comtneil shall take the neeessary step to that end. ‘The alrof the elty las been bvefouted long cnough from this cause, i” ORIMINAL LAW IN CHICAGO, One of our exchanges calls attention to the promptiness and eflicleney with which the erhntnal laws are executed In Canada. Less than a month ago the Mon. George Brown, eilltor of tha ‘Toronto Glohe, died of s wound Inilicted by an angry discharged workman, and the finn who fired the stot is now undor sentence to be hanged sume time in July. “A contrast is made between the legal action taken In this cake and that recently had In tho Currie cage In Texas, Itis hardly nevessury to go so far away 19 Texas for nn iltstration of the difference In tho ndniinistration of justiee, especially in eriminal cases. How would o similar caso have been treated In Chicago? Let us sup- pose that the * venerable” editor of the Chi- engo Tintes had found It necessary to dis- charge one of hts wotkmen for somo dere- Hetion of duty; :that tho man. had enlted upon the editor sn his sanctum and demanded restoration to his place. and pays that, falling to havo his demand com- piled with, he drow a pistel and shot Mx. Storey, who died from the effects of the wotind soon after, We will suppose that all this tovk place some years ago, aud then let us ask how that case would have been dis- posed of by thistime. According to general prevedent nnd practice the assasin woul have been promptly arrested by tho pollco and as promptly indicted, and shortly after- wards he would hava beet let out of jail on bail, After an inierval of several months denuurrer would have beén entered to the in- dlctment, which in time would have been argued and overruled, and about a year after the mutder the prisoner would have been ealled upon to prepare for his trial At the end of say fifteen months, on the day fixed for trial, the prisoner would appear.in court and make affidavit that “It had come to ia knowledge that day. for the Grat timo that all the Judges having -Juris- diction of his. case were so prejudiced against him that ho could not hops fora fair trial,’ and at tho: same thie file tho afidavits of two shoemnkors or other inhab- itants of the county proviously unacquainted with the prisonenand with the Judges, who watld make afldavits of the Hke character; that from ints general clurgo of judicial projudice the prisoner, however, would ox- copt one of the Judges before whom alone ho could hope for justice, Under these nftida- vits, the prisoner. gained a postponement of his trial until the excepted Judge should in turn be called to preside over tho Criminal Court. Ag ench of the elght Judges serves three months In, the Criminal Court, six months, ao year,:or elghteen months may have passed away, before the only Judge in the State competent wider the law would be called to that Court, But without taking things at thelr oxtreme- let us ngsume that at tho end of two years and threo months the murderer was pul.at the bar.for trial, and that after some weeks of delay In gettlng his counsel ready, a jury was solucted of men.especially chosen, be- cuusoof thelr least possible knowledge of inen and things, and because of thelr special and profound ignorance, In the meantime soveral of the witnesses had died, or gone off to parts unknown, and some of the witnesses who knew least about the case hail been kept in jallyo as to be on hand when the case finally came on for trial In the Indefinit future. : A. now Stato’s Attornoy In tho hiterin had been elected; the Legistaturo had again tlnkered the Jury luw and the Practice act. On the trial it was pleadad that tho shooting was done In self-defense, and that tho pris- oner was luboring under an attack of emo- tional tnsanity, aud It was sworn to on the trlal by his relatives or aged acqualntutces that some of his ancestors had buen aMlicted by spasins of emotional Insanity every time they were engaged in killing or trying to KI a oman, and consequently that. it was an inherited trait of character, Tho outcome of. the trial before tho Intelll- gent jury of sympathizers was o dlagreement of those peers, After this fiasco of justice tho whole case wont ovor for at least a your, By this tne sume other awfully atrocious erie was committed and sleoplug justice was aroused, and forthwith this asansin was called for to be tried for his three- year-old crime, Under the excitement the jury found, the prisoner guilty to the surprise of wyery one, and then cnno anappeal, Elghteen months later the con- vietion was set aside because one of the Jurors had gald before entering the box that convicted murderers ought to be hanged, which was evidence, In the opinion of the Supreme Court, that the Juror was preju- eed aguinst tho man on triall ‘Che prisoner was again admitted to ball, Durlug the pre- vious years while the accused had been on ball ho had attended the lectures of smeilent college, and Just before his convic- ton had been graduated, Upon being re- lensed on ball the second time he opened an office as proctleing physician, meeting with consiterablo succesy, At the ond uf wuother year a now Btate’s Attorney was uppolnted ; anew batch of Judges had beun elected; tha last witness In thg caso was dead or gone off to parts wiknown; the case had been driven out of men’s minds, aud on the upniication of the grave and dignified med- fenl practitioner tho old judictment was dis- wissed, ‘Nhe newspapers and medical jour- unis of the day were ut the time commend: Ing the recont prespntution of improvements in the treatment of gunshot wounds by Dr, —, the man who six or seven years ago ussasinated the editor in his offices.

Like many other parts of the same platform, and much: of the ‘other wrtt- ings of its distingtished author, aknowledge of the time of tay or night when it was written fs necessary ton cloat understanding of what the text means, Taken Mterally, this declaration is In tho nature of a denunelation of tho aetton and policy of the Demoeratic party from Its’ bo- ginning‘to the present day. That ‘party wos in absolute possession of nll branches of the Government, with two short ‘recesses, from 1820 to 1801, That ft hind such possession and that It exercised It fully Is evidenced by tho tariff legisintion from 1898 to 1913; by Ite roponl in 1845 of the Whig tarlif of 42; by its repented! reductlons of the tarlif in 1849, 1852, 1855, and 1857, until the average duties orts fell below 19 per cent.
