written not only for lawyers, but for those

which stands guard over the liberties OF the

diligently and briefly the interesting events
which led up to the building Of the Federal
constitution. Without INDUCING in techni-s

army and navy also the rights and privileges
given to the states, and the many safeguards
provided for the protection of life, liberty.
and property. apd for the regulations OF

upon The Naturalization Laws and the
many questions arising under them, and
whether treaties with foreign powers were in

American system and the United States cam

bound them to that kingdom, and constructed
charters thereof emanating from themselves.
"To have admitted, may be claimed by
reason of the treaties referred to, and az

1t is source of qualification that
the Republicans were victorious, gem
orally, in last Tuesdays elections and
especially so in the case of Kentucky,
which has always, with one exception,
been hopelessly Democratic. The ex-
pansionists take this as an indication
that the policy of expansion is en-.
dorsed, but that does not follow, as a
matter of course, as there are many
Republicans who do not favor expan-
sion as it is now being done. We de-
sire to see Republican supremacy, but
we don't favor expansion along the
lines now followed and there are many
things done and many things not done
by Republicans which do not meet our
approval.
