The Coconino sun., 1925-11-13

the controversy between the large and
small states Passion was running
high. Benjamin Franklin, standing
there beneath eighty three years of
age, came to the rescue as he did on
many occasions with his good humor
and homely wisdom. He was serving
his country when Washington was a
boy. On this particular occasion he
asked that they pause for prayer as
follows:
II have lived, sir, long time; and
the longer | live the more convincing
proofs I see of this truth, that God
governs in the affairs of men. And if
sparrow cannot fall to the ground
without His notice, is it probable that
an empire can rise without His aid
We have been assured, sir, in the
Sacred Writings, that except the Lord
build the house, they labor in vain
that build it. | firmly believe this;
and | also believe that without His
concurring aid we shall succeed in this
political building no better than the
builders of Babel; we shall be divided
by our little, partial, local interests,
our project will be confounded, and
we ourselves shall become reproach
and a byword down to future ages.
And, what is worse, mankind may
hereafter, from this unfortunate in
stance, despair of establishing gov
ernnent by human wisdom and leave
it to chance, war, conquest"
When the work of convention was
over and the Constitution was signed,
Franklin arose and addressed Geo.
Washington, the President. Pointing
to the carving of the sun on the back
of the chair he said Many times
during our deliberations | have won
dered if that were rising or a set
ting sun. But now | am firmly con-
vinced it is the rising sun Of great
The Coconino sun., 1925-11-13

empire.
This Constitution was formed for a
nation of four millions of people.
Through growth it rs meeting the
needs of over hundred millions. It
is significant that the first act of the
first Congress of the United States
provided that the President, members
of Congress members of al State
legislatures, all executive and judicial
officers of the several states and all
officers of the United States should
take an oath as follows:
81 do solemnly swear or affirm that
| win support the Constitution Of the
United States"
So let US remove not the ancient
land mark which our fathers have
set" But in the language of Lincoln
LET every American, every lover of
liberty, every well wisher to his pos
terity, swear by the blood of the Revo-
luton never to violate in the least
particular the laws of the country and
to never tolerate their violation by
others. As the patriots of '76 did to
the support of the Declaration, so to
the support Of the Constitution and
the laws let every American pledge
his life, his property and his sacred
honor"
The Coconino sun., 1925-11-13

ion. If we trace the development of
constitutional government from the
time King John signed the Magma
Carta on Runnymede up to the adop-
ion of the Constitution we find one
moving and dramatic situation after
another. At the same time the human
element is always present and makes
shese situations of surprising interest
If we follow the events leading up to
the Declaration of independence, the
Continental Congresses, the Revolu-
ton, the Articles Of Confederation,
and then the chaotic conditions fore
.ng the people to seek more perfect
union" in the Constitution, we must
say with wise old Ben Franklin thai
"God governs in the affairs of men"
Ambassador Bryce said the Consti-
sutional Convention was composed Of
he greatest body of men ever gath
cred together under single roof
Sixty five men were elected to the
.onvention-fifty five attended-thir-
" nine actually signed the Constitu-
ion. Over half of these men were
College graduates. Eight were sign
ers of the Declaration of Indepned-
ance. Among them were thirty three
'awyers, six planters, eight business
men, one teacher, one physician, one
minister and two public service men.
These men were comparatively young
their average age was about forty.
Charles Pinckney who submitted the
first original draft of the Constitution
was only twenty nine years of age.
Alexander Hamilton the most brilliant
nan of the convention was only thirty.
lanes Madison was thirty six and
Randolph was only thirty four. These
men were not mere theorists. They
were face to face with a great crisis

Below is given brief summary of
an address on the Constitution of the
United States delivered by Grady
Gammage before several different
audiences recently. Mr.. Gammage
taught courses in the Constitution to-
more than three hundred students
during the, recent summer session at
Flagstaff Teachers college.
We are passing through hectic
period of history. Today is, perhaps,
as momentous as the days preceding
the Civil War. BY compromise our
country was then led to the brink of
national disaster. Through COM
promise of our ideals and principles
we may now be facing an even greater
danger than the Civil War. There
was a chance then that our country
might be split in two. If this had
happened we probably would have
had two constitutional governments.
The danger we face today is break
down of all constitutional government
and a. consequent check in the devel-
opment of free institutions every
where.
It was Sampson of whom it was
said-"He wist not that God had de-
parted from him." So too our ma
tional as we'll as individual ideals may
slip from us. We may not be con-
scious of their going. But their loss
brings US face to face with great
crises.
No nation is richer in ideals than
our own. We find them running
through the whole fabric of our his
tory. To be more specific we find
great expressions of American ideals
in the Declaration of Independence, III
the Constitution, in Washington's IN
augural and farewell addresses-in
Lincoln's Gettysburg and inaugural
addresses, in Theodore Roosevelt S
powerful appeals for civic righteous
ness and in the eloquent messages of
Woodrow Wilson. If the crime wave,
if dishonesty in and out of public Of
flee, if ignorance of and lack of re-
spect for the fundamental ideals and
institutions of our Country are sig
nificant, then we may well ask our
selves the question are we as ma
tion allowing these things to slip
from US.
The Constitution of the United
States has been in operation every
hour since April 80, 1889. Through
it the individuals rights are more
scrupulously protected than in any
other country. 1t has been tested
time and again. Thus far it has
emerged triumphant from every
storm. Under it the United States
has grown to be the richest, happiest,
and most powerful nation in the
world. Yet there are those who would
set it aside for some new fantastic
and untried experiment in govern
ment.
Many Of US take our government
and our constitution as we do the air
we breathe as matter of course. We
are liable to think of it as free
gift-costing nothing. We forget that
it represents a struggle extending
over seven hundred years and that
our freedom was bought with the
blood of hundred battlefields. In
mans struggle upward to his present
status in democracy and constitutional
government, he suffered Punishment,
the rack, the thumb screw, the dun
geon and every other cruel and wicked
punishment despotic kings could de-
wise.
The Coconino sun., 1925-11-13

tanned. If to please the people we
offer what we ourselves disapprove
how can we defend it. Let us raise a
standard to which the wise and honest
can repair. The event is in the hands
of God"
Then after the convention met and
had wasted about four or five weeks,
it was on the point of dissolution over
