obligations by the people and watchful jealousy
of any infringement upon their rights. True is il
that the price of liberty is eternal vigilance But
we fear that the total disregard Of Constitutional
obligations and the usurpation Of power, not to
preserve the Government but to maintain party
platforms and to perpetuate party power has
done more to destroy our free institu
tutions than could have been accomplished by a
direct effrt to substitute strong central or con-
solidated government monarchy in form. il
not i'm name-for one Of delegated and limited
powers and local self-government As an illus
tration of the dangers which beset our institu-
tons, we need only refer to the usurpations of
power by the President, with hardly protest; the
establishment of provisional governments in
Western Virginia and Missouri, in which the peo-
pie have had no voice, and the suspension of the
writ OF h0beas corpus upon the dictum of mill
tary commanders. Do not these acts demand
consideration by the people, and should they not
put the brake upon the wheels that are fast run
ming us into a consolidated government with des-
potic powers-the rule of few for that of
all? There are worse evils than disunion, and
the course of events for the past three months
seem rapidly driving us to such a crisis.
