Conxixa’s quarrel with this Admin- [stration was fought.out once, The issue ia precisely the one that was ralsed In 1877, when President Liayes removed Arthur and Cornell. It was thought tu have been finally settled in’ the next Congress, when Merritt was confirned by, the Senate. It’ would have ‘ended then and there’ if tho Republican’ National Con- vention, under the guldnnce of ox-Gov. Dennison, of Ohio, had not rhised the ghost tliat was once so successfilly latd. From this point of view Mr. Dennison’s act was a greater blunder even than It appeared to bu nt tho time, Tt was tho feullful sourco of all the subsequent “woes winumbered” In New York. It put arod in pickle for tho President, which he had the wisdom and firmness to apply to othor backs than his own, . The comments of the press on Mr. Conkling’s conduct at the tina of Arthur's and Cornell’s suspension have a pecuilar tn- terest. An extract from Harper's Weekly of Aug, 10, 1877, expresslve of the feeling at that time, wlll be found in tho column of “public opinion.” {t will be seen that Mr, Conkling was then tho same vain, arrogant, domineering fellow that he is now.. Tho only difference is that he {s now older and ils havits have grown on him with tine. ed THE QUESTION OF THE PHESIDENT'S DISABILITY. Some discussion is going on relative to the constitutional provision which «defines the conditions whder which the Vice-President shall nssume the Presidential. char, The langungé of the Constitution Is: In cugo of the removal.of tho President from oftiva, ur of his death, resignation, or inability to dlsenirze the powers und duties of tho said Biieo, tho site shall devolve on the Vice-Pres-, ont, So faras this discussion Is suggested by the omtsston to specify what shall constitute “Inability,” aud prompted by « desire that stich condition shall be so «eflned by Inw that there snay be no doubt when the Vice- President shall assume the duties of tho Presidentint office, there Is no objection to the consideration of thu subject, But tt this discusglon was started with any design to construa the present condition of President Garlield as one of “Inability,” and to provide tho Vice-President with an opportunity to exercisa the executlye functionsylt is at once unnocessary and Indecorous, The Indofimtness of the Constitution as to “inability” Is only perplexing beenuse no authority Is provided to determine when that condition exists, If the Cablnet-had a constitutional recognition and were trusted with passing npon and determining the ques, tion of Inability when the emergency should arise, or if the Supreme Court wore author. {zed to decile In such case, thore would be no reason to apprehund confusion or con- flict. ‘Chere lina been an effort to trace 0 resemblance between any ‘emergency that mightcome up in this country and the dis- ability of George IIL when his mind became disordered In consuqnence, as was bullaved, of the loss of thu Americun Colonies, ‘There Is, however, to chance for comparison butween tho two cases, ‘There was ne ques- tlon ag to tho temporary derangement of George IIT’s mind and his incapacity to perform the executlye duties, but there was nulspute as to the succession to the throne under stich a condition, One factlon con- tended that'the Prince of Wates was entitled to oxerclse the Ruygl power, and another factfon insisted that Parliament bad the rlght | to designate a Regenoy, In the ense of such “inability” of the Prosidunt of the United Btater as would warrant or demand tho placement of the oxeculive power In other hands there would be no doubt as to the suc- ecaston, because the Constitution names tho Vico-President as the person upon whom the responsibilities of tho ofice shall devolve. ‘The clifef trouble Is that nobody, unless It is the Vice-President Itmself, ean undertake to deolde when there is such “ Inability” ns re-, quires that some one besides the President shall uxerctae tho duties of the oflice, and it fg casy to understand that, If tho discrotion were lntrusted ‘to the Vice-President nlone, circumstances might arise which would luad to o serious contlict of authority, ‘The present condition of President Garflold doos not presenta caso where anybody in his right mind and governed by honest pur- poses would suggest that the Vice-President should become the Chef Exeoutive,” The eonnectlon In which the word "inability" is. used In the Constitution plulnly indicates an, intention that auch Inability should be of a total and pormanent character, Tho other three conditions with whieh "Inability? ts associnted aro removal, deathyand resigna- tlon,—all of them absolute ellininations from. the ofice, Innbility cannot reasonably’ be conatrued to mean temporary disablement In any ense, If President Garfleld hind fallen sick of a fever and woro thus incapacitated from attending to the duties of lila oftice for seyeral weeks, 10 ono would have thought of suggcating such. a iujstortune ash proper condition for culling upon the Vicw-Phesident to agsumo exccutive power, Tho fact that the President has been prostrated by an assasin'g bullet does not. change the materlal conditions, «According to all accounts, thers has.) been’ “no timo gince he wns. wounded whon -ho could not to havo transacted any exclusive and necessary duty attached ta his office, for ho has been fn full possession of his mental faculties, and has yen dustred to discuss pub> Mo. affaire, but has been restralned by his physiclans, Moreover, at this season of the year, during the vacation of Congress, and just after ull necessary changes in tho Gov- ernwent ofiices have been made, the Presl- THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: FRIDAY.
