the following sketch Of the result:

" The People Of the United States. "
WHAT is THE MEANING or TAs PHRasE1

We frequently hear individuals usc
the term, "National Democracy" and
often read well written articles, by
newspaper editors, on the "National
Democratic Party" There is-there
can be-no such Democracy, in the
sense that the word is commonly, or
rather correctly, used. Tho principles
of Democracy are not national but
federal. We have often enough at
tempted to show, and have, during
our entire life, striven to teach, where
ever we were competent to teach, this
great fundamental truth, that the
general government is federal and not
national in its character. The word
National" was so obnoxious to the
great and wise men who framed our
Constitution, that they, by unani-
nous vote, excluded it from that
sacred 10 them) instrument. And OF
course, there is no such body polite
recognized by tho constitutional laws
of these United States as the "Natien-
al Government" 1t is true that we
hear this word often enough, but
when not used in ignorance, it is used
with some anti.Amorican and revolu.
tionary design. The present condi-
tion of the country demands that we
should understand our position, and
know the meaning of the phrase,
"The people Of the United States" "
In connection with this, we often hear
another very improper, in fact mean
ingless, phrase in our government, viz :
chat the United States is a govern
mont of majorities,' meaning of course
q majority Of the whole people blend
cd in one mass of political power,
which is in no sense true. The Fed.
cral Government is a government of q
majority Of States, and has no possible
reference whatever to the whole mum.
Der of people in the country 1t is a
government. not of thirty odd millions
of people, but of thirty odd States,
and, under our Constitution, the
rights of the States are undeniabIy
the rights Of the minority of the peo-
pie. This is not theoretical posi-
tion, nor is IL new one, but practi.
cable, accepted and proven fact
Abraham Lincoln was elected Presi.
dent of the then United States, on this
established constitutional fact, by q
majority of the States, but was more
than million of votes short of having
majority of the whole people. Ever
since tho formation ofthe Federal Gov.
crnmept, minority of the people has
had the operative power OF the federal
government in It's hands fact which
alone proves that this is govern
ment of States and not of the people,
as ono political body. When the
federal government was organized, in
1889, it was composed of only eleven
States, and had ffLy.nine representa-
tives. OF this number, four of tbt
States had tbirty.two, and the Other
seven States had only twcnty-scvcr
representatives,, and yot this minority
Of the people bad power TO elect
President, with 4 majority also o
votes in the Senate.
Thus we soc that, at tho very foqq
dation OF the federal government, th'
