tJallkS
we arc plessed to see that the eeh"'e
u,on;fests a disposition to adhere to its OWL
hin prescribing the oaths OF ONCE 10 DC
,.lo, in this State, and we trust that the
Um,se of Delegates will yield to the wishes
Of that body. The act admitting Virginia
70 representation in Congress- provided 'ha'
oil tho members Of the General Assembly
and all the officers of the State should
within thirty days take an oath that they
were not disqualified by the fourteenth
amendment Tor had been relieved of their
lisabilities). Now, Congress did not
prescribe this oath without some rea-
son for so doing. Congress knows aS
we'll as We do that all executive and )u-
d;cial officers of this rs Of every other e'a'e
are REQUIRED by the Federal Constitution to
take an oath to support that Constitution;
and ye, Congress, full though 1t be OF
LAWYERS. also required these officers to take
an oath that they were not disqualified.
Why did Congress make this requirement Z
Because in Virginia rs elsewhere there are
hundreds of men who would take an oath to
support the Federal Constitution who would
not swear thatthey are not disqualified. And
they would not do this for the reason that
they honestly and conscientiously believe
las we do) that the fourteenth amendment
was not made a part of the Federal Consti-
tuition according TO the mode prescribed in
that instrument for making amendments to
It. Congress intended to prevent such men
from holding Office. 1t also intended that
this Observation-Disclosures oath should
continue to be taken by all officers elected
hereafter in Virginia, but (possiblv because
it doubted its power to do SOY did not in
terms prescribe that said oath should be
taken BY any officers hereaftert to be elected.
The act provides that before any officer Of
this State shall "entcr upon" the duties
of his office he shall take said oath.
This language forbids the idea that Congress
meant that only persons already in office
should take it. The proyiso that all offices
should be vacated ut the end Of thirty days
If tho incumbents had not taken the oath
shows that Congress required it to be taken
mp to the 25th of February. If it had to
be taken up to that date, why not now?
And If Congress could require it to be taken
up to that day, why not o We admit
al the arguments that can be used on the
other side, yet VIC must say, with all due
respect to the Legislature, that this is no
time for experiments. Your acts may be
contested before Judge UNDERWOOD. Do
not put us at a disadvantage, especially
when there is no question Of principle in
volved for no man who is not disqualified
can possibly hare any good reason for Oh
jecting to Such IN oath!
