CoSoREss--T body is now subdi.
vided into a number Of rowing com
mittees trying to find out who was
elected President last November.
Tho progress OF tho age,v (as reform
ers term their movcmcnts) and Radical
reconstruction on twelve years basis
has rendered this vicious system Of Ma.
tlonal legislation necessary This IN.
novation is enough to damn us as n
Republic, in the estimation OF all In
periaIists and Despots Our infantile
weakness is as apparent to-day as it
was one hundred years ago. This is
not the fault Of the child, or the system
Of government under which we live.
Our vagarles are directly traceable to
the parent or the party, that has been
administering our governmental affairs
for the past sixteen years. We admit
that Revolution stares us in the face
from all directions, caused by the dis
obedience Of law and human rights
superinduced BY corrupt and ungodly
men who have about as much respect
for the constitution as swine has tor
pearls. And until other agents are
employed we will remain in jeopardy.
