THE OATH OF CITIZENSHIP
sy GROVER CLEVELAND

In the discharge of my official duty
I shall endeavor to be guided by q
lust and unstrained construction Of
the constitution, a careful observance
Of the distinction between the powers
granted to the federal government and
those reserved to the states OF to the
people, and by a cautious appreciation
Of those functions which by the con-
stitution and laws have been assigned
10 the executive branch of the govern
i15ent.
But he who takes the oath today to
preserve. protect, and defend the con-
-stitutioa of tn United States only as
sumes the solemn obligation which
every patriotic citizen on the farm,
in the workshop. in the busy marts OF
trade. and everywhere should share
with him. The constitution which pre-
scribes his oath, my countrymen, Is
YOURS: the government you have
chosen him to administer for time is
vours. the suffrage which executes
the will of freemen is yours; the laws
and the entire scheme of our civil rule,
from the town meeting to the state
capitaIs and the national capital is
yours. Your every voter as surely as.
your chief magistrate, under the same
high sanction though in a different
sphere. exercises a public trust. Nor
is this all. Every citizen owes to the
country vigilent watch and close
scrutiny Of its public servants and al
fair and reasonable estimate Of their
fidelity and usefulness. Thus IS the
neople's viii impressed upon the whole
framework of our civil policy munic-
ipai. state. ami federal: and this is the
price Of our liberty and the Inspiration
Of our faith in the renrhlic.

find in their husbands trunk. That
man is a ready victim to the green

sion is that literary treatises on
how to manage wives and husbands
