must be the surprise OF the majestic spirit
OF John 9. Calhoun, when he saw his
former followers, the strict constructions
lists and States rights Democrats of the
south, yelling in both houses of Congress
for the old flag and an appropriation? In
his Judgment the cnactments OF such a
bill would be a greater calamity to the
southern people than war, pestilence and
famine. Ii il were not for the money
temptation in it the ballot would stand no
more chance OF the votes of Democratic
senators than donation for the devil
would stand in christian congregation.
the bill breathed the spirit OF Capitalization
and patelnal government in every section
and line il should bring Joy and unlimited
satisfaction to the bosom OF every true
iederal!st. He believed i'm universal cdu-
cation and would be glad if every child in
the United States were taught to
read and write. But that was not all
OF education. The highest education
was that which taught self-respect and
self-reliance and individual independence.
Without il individuals and communities
must dctoriorate. This measure was in
tended TO destroy the common school sys-
tenn OF the States and put upon il the
stamp OF federal authority. 10 accept
money under the terms OF the bill would
be TO surrender all that made State author
ity respectable. Ifthis bin becomes law,
1t will be by southern votes in this Senate
and in the other House OF Congress. But
there is one place of refuge still left in the
constltution-the brave and honest man
who is now President OF this republic.
Unless he is false TO the principles of his
whole life, and OF the great party which
elected him, he will interpose his execu-
tive veto in the path of this abominable
and undcmocratic measure.
