Grams who survived the conflict. They
asked not, like many in our times for
shorter hours and less work. With

they faced their tasks and against
terrible obstacles, restored the waste

Were these men all in the wrong?
My country right or wrong sounds
well but we should not be for any

is wrong we should try to get it
right. Truth and right rank with
Gods throne Now, were these men
wrong in siding with the South in the
Civil War?
In principle. No. The decisions OF
the supreme court of the United
States since the Civil War, study of
the constitution of the United States,
and the story of its origin, brings us
the verdict of many wise, impartial
men. that at the time of the Civil
War the states did have the right of
secession. -

COLLECTOR CRAIG.

sCharges have been filed against Col
lector of,1nternal Revenue E. b. Craig
by one or both of the Tennessee Sena-
tors. Mr.. Crajgs record as an Off
cial it is said is not involved in the
charges, but they are based upon his
political activities. II that be true
probably it is an effort on the part
Of the senators to get even for the
resolutions recently adopted by the
Giles county democrats wherein
Shields and Mcclellan were both
charged with being office brokers'.
{. 1t does not seem likely that the
administration will seriously consider
any charges made against "a faithful
and efficient official based solely
upon political spite, although this ad-
rninistration has shown subser-
viency to the Tennessee senators in
the matter Of appointments that is
beyond comprehension or explaRation.
Even after the absolute break be
tween the senior senator and the pre-
sideht the former was siahle TO s'put
over' his former secretaryFto 'onelo OF
the best offices in the state. fes9et
The Herald has not always agreed
with Collector Craig in politics. 1t
violates no confidence when it says
that, in some OF these differences ne
doubt Mr. Craig would now quite
freely confess that this paper had
much the better Judgment But it
does know that Collector Craig is a
good and capable official; that he has
rendered his state and his govern
ment good public service. The reve.
nue. service will not be improved by
his removal no matter how gratifying
1t might be to certain political inter
ests.

.FEDERAL AMENDMENTS.

1
I'm holding void the provision Of the
constitution OF Ohio which requires a
popular referendum on amendments
TO- the federal constitution the, SUI
preme court did nothing more than
hold that the organic law OF the ma
tion means exactly what It says on the
subject OF amendments. 1t was OBJ
yiously the only possible decision of
a question that should never have
been raised. When the constitution
ofslthe United States was written. and
adopted In 1857 and 1888 the founders
Of2thiss nation had never dreamed of
the initiative and referendum They
we're building and building wisely a
representative republic and not de-
mocFacy. This republic was never in
tended by its founders to be direct
democracy although desperate, at
tenhpts have been madeA to take it
from its ancient moorings. In SO far
as II has remained true to- the chart
marked out by the fifty-fiye men Sin
spired of God who composed the
constitutional convention this repub-
lio has been the worlds best example
0fs eovernment~of ordered liberty. All
Efforts to .substitutes,a direct demoG7
racyA for our representative system
are utterly subversive of the original
fundamental principle Of this republic.
Y Therefore, when the constitution Of
the United States provided that
amendments to It should be ratified by
the legislatures or conventions of
threeifourths OF the states composing
the union It meant the legislative as
ssniblies and not every1'voter in the
state, ais was contended in the Ohio
case. Such populistic fads and fan
cies as the initiative and the referen-
dun were to be the product of later
generation. 1t being evident that the
constitutional provision for its amend
nients were susceptible of only one
meaning the, only question for the
conft to decide was whether or not
the constitution Of the United States
or8tnataof the. state of Ohio on a pure
W federal proposition was the SUI
prerne lawE.of the land Necessarily
such, a question could be decided in
but one way. The constitution OF this
nation, would indeed be very flimsy
and impotent chart of free govern
ment II its provisions could be multi
ned by the vagaries of some state con
stitution. This decision of the high
est court in the land, regardless OF its
effect on thee liquor and suffrage is.
sues, win renew and re.establish our
faith that this is after all represen
tstive republic and that when laws are
made and constitutions written in an
