When the Presidents last message communicated TO

decided in favor of both the reception and the reading OF
the message Mr. Campbell objected but we had none OF
the fierce adecve profusey hurled at the President on
the occasion of the transmission of his annual message

yes of the Executive visions of presidential inter-
ference asunted before the eyes Of the people
the second message accepted by the House. and the
members patiently listened TO its reading by the

month. There is about it, however 1t is sus-

the annual message 10 that body Even the New York Tr

who loudest in condemning the message itself

OF ustrious democratic Presidents not TO men
ton the Father Of his Country who first set the example
all reelected How II be truthfuy said, in view
Of these facts that nelgbiiy the singeterm prnci
pie ordinary doctrine Of democracy are unable to
discover.
We are able to comprehend that there is sentiment
amongst democrats which favors distribution OF offices
by rotation at proper intervals of me but this is wholly
different principle that of the single term, which IL
is proposed to introduce into the national democratic plat
form 1t seems TO us to be proposition of like charac-
ter with some of those Of know-nothing opponents
against which have been lately wagng steady
They seek to render nugatory certain provisions OF
the constitution by creating and perpetuatng law OF
public sentiment higher than the constitution ITSELF The
constitution for example, orbids the application Of any
gious test 10 Office. The know nothings propose to
nnlfy this provision by law of public sentiment,
dered obligatory by solemn oah which, in effect renders
every Catholic ineligible to Office.
We have opposed know-nothingsm because this was
indirect mode of subveriing the constitution In what does
1t differ from the proposition Of the reviewer? The
sttuon provides that President shall be reelgble but
the reviewer says this provision dangerous and wrong
He does not propose to amend abrogae It in the
pointed in the constitution but he proposes that every
democrat in the United States shall agree to make il part
Of his creed TO disregard that provision Of the constitution
and against the reelection Of President This
to be indirect attempt to add disqualified
ton to the Office Of President unknown to the constitution
just the know-nothngs seek to make dsquaifcatons
contrary to the letter and spirit Of the constitution
We know that there many democrats who think
that President ought to be reeectedhey have per-
feet right to think and to act upon their conviction
but the idea of mbodyDg that opinion into the demo-
cratic creed strikes not only novel but absolutely
with the fundamental object of democracy, which
looks to the full and living preservation of the principles
of the constitution We would shackle the private
judgments Of democrats this question by making it
test of orthodoxy but long as the work Of fathers
remains unaered would leave every follow his
vcticns without impeachment of his democratic feay
The trainers Of the constitution have furnished example
this matter which we think may be safely followed
They fired the term at four years. and left the people
decide in each whether to apply the doctrine of
eligibility not By following this example shall
only avoid the charge of winking the doctrine
higher-lawism, but will escape the embarrassmens
attempting to introduce tests into national plat
