that no man ought to be delegated to
represent Mississippi in the National
Convention, who is governed or infiu-

or who is welded to the support of any
particular man for the nomination, or
who has any special plank which he
proposes to have embodied in the plat
form. Also that men of broard intelli-

lected as delegates whose convictions
are that the platform of the National
Convention of the party as it now
stands is RIGHT, and elicits and COM

nominate Democrat who will be the

THE CHOOSING OF PRESIDENTIAL
ELECTORS.


A DISPATCH from Lansing, Michi.
gan, states that the Miner election law
declared constitutional on the 18th ult.
by the State Supreme Court will be
taken to the Supreme Court OF the
United States for final adjudication.
Five Judges constitute the Michigan
Supreme Court, three OF whom arc
Republicans, the two others being
Democrats. Inasmuch ~ the issue Of
conslitutionality was raised by leaders
Of the Republican party, 1t seems that
the Michigan tribunal did not favor
party In lis decision. Michigan has
been overwhelmingly Republican ever
since 1860, until 1904, when the Demo.
Gratis took all the state offices anu both
branches Of the legislature.
One Of the first measures passed by
the Democratic legislature and
assented to by Governor Winans
was what is now known M the Miner
election law, which relates entirely IL
presidential electors, For thirty years
Michigan had chosen her electors by
the usual method now prevailing In all
the States, that 10 by vote OF the clti.
Gems OF the state at large. The Miner
law provided for the election OF distrlc,
presidential electors by congressional

two senators, She IL, according to the
Constitution Of the United states, en-
titled 10 fourteen presidential electors,
chosen in Whatever way her State
legislature may decide. The Miner
law provides for the election Of twelve
Of these by congressional districts, and
divides the State into two districts for
the senatorial electors.
The state Republican Committee
took up the law and resolved to test It's
constitutionali,y In the courts. About
halt dozen exceptions were taken,
but the main one rests on the words Of
the second ssclion Of the fourteenth
amendment, which reads: "Nhen the
right TO vote at any election for the
choice Of Electors for President and
Vice. President Of the United States
is denied, etc" IL Il
contended that by choice Of electors
is meant the whole body Of State cleo
tors, and that every citizen must vote
Tor the whole college, ami not for one
individual. The State supreme Court
decided that the law was cons,itu.
tionnl, and Furthermore 1. held that the
power Of the Legislature N providing
for any method Of selection was beyond
controversy.
History seems to justify the decision
Of the court. At the nrtt Presidential
election In 1850 eleven States par.
tlcipnlod. Five different ways OF
choosing electors were adopted. Penn
sylvania and Virginia elected by pop
ular vote OF the citizens Of the State
at laree--the Same method which now
prevails. Maryland elected by pop.
ular vote but BY Congressional dla'
iricts, the same "a the Miner law now
provides for. In Connecticut, Now
jersey, Delaware, South Carolina, and
. .orgis tho legislatures chose the
Presidential electors. Ia New Hamp'
shire the citizens at large nominated
the electors, but the legislature rejected
or confirmed. Tho State was near
losing its electoral vote, deadlock
spTang up between both houses IN
regard to tho confirmation, broken
only few minutes before ~ midnight
Of January 7th, 1859. New York
adopted the same plan, and n like
deadlock occurred In tho legislature
which could not be- removed; hence
the Empire State was not represented
In the college which elected George
Washington first President Of the
United States. Massachusetts, was
divided into Congressional districts.
The citizen. Of each district selected
two persons. The names II all 80
chosen went before the legislature,
which selected one for each district
and two for the S,nte ut large.
Subsequent elections we're carried
out In similar ways, but by 1850 all
the States IN tho Union except South
Carolina had adopted the old Pennsyl.
vania aui Virginia plan. After recon-
struotion, South Carolina adopted tho
prevailing system, which became the
universal method until the Michigan
Miner law was enacted In 1880.
