become fosiliHcd. Old issues should
We buried. Let dead issues alone.
They are among the things that were.
During the war many changes were
made. Now, indeed, we need a more
perfect form Of government.
II the Constitution is carried out in
truth and spirit, this corrupt 20 er can
be changed. II can only be done by
going back 20 first principles Time
has demonstrated in favor of the one
term principle and the election by the
people. In the Senate Of the United
States arc many men elected through
fraud and bribery, by the use Of none,
to buy votes. We cannot expect any
better form Of Government from such
men, | hayc more confidence in the
people than in the onlce-hoIdcrs. 1t
would he more difficult for candidates
for the Senate to buy office from the
people, than from Il Legislature"
