Slashing the Single Tax.

A man will ordinarily undergo great

10 the upbuilding Of the Common
wealth, in order TO secure home, than
to accomplish any other object. This
is what his mind is first set on ald
when be has gained II his efforts are
equally enlisted TO keep it. The single
tax threatens to profoundly alter the
meaning OF this word as We understand

OF home that somebody should take IL

The Electoral College.

We have been asked why the authors
of the Constitution incorporated in IL
the electoral C. llsge methods OF choos-
ing President. The gentlemen who
prepared the Constitution bad for the
most part no very great confidence III
the Intelligence and character of the
ID asses OF the people, and, with some
exceptions they did not feel ike trust
ing the people directly with the power
of selecting the President. They evil
IDENTIFY had no idea that The popular
will would make the electoral college
device a mere form. as II did Very early
in our history. Their idea was that "A
body of eminent men selected for the
purpose, would make a more judiciOus
and careful selection or President than
Congress or q popular convention would.
II was intended that the electoral co.'s
lege would not merely register the will
of the people, but should assemble un-
instructed and make its own free and
independent choice OF President and
Vice-President. Another reason for
providing an electoral college " IS that
the fathers of the Republic knew moth
ing about n ,tional Conventions, and of
course saw the impossibili,y of mass
conventions OF the people of whole
Safes, and saw in the electoral college
q representative body small enough to
meet ia State groups. and deliberate
and discuss the important matters in
the choice OF q Chief Magistrate. The
choice of a President 10y electors, like
the choice OF Senator'S by Legislatures,
WAS intended TO serve KS a check upon
popular impulse. aud the rights OF the
small States were projected in some
meas urs from the great maiorities of
votes cast in the large States by the
provision OF one elector for each Sena-
tor as we'll as one for each Represena-
