Tried by blood and fire, It atands to-day a- model form of free popular government; a polltical system which, rightly‘adiinistered, has been, and will continue to be, the admiration of tho world, . May we not say nenrly in the words of Washington: “ The unity of the Govern- ment which constitutes one people is justly dear to us; it 1s tho main pillar In the edifice of our real independence, the support of our pence, safety, and prosperity, and of that liberty wo so. highly prize, and intend at evory hazard to preserve.” But no form of government, howover care- fully devised—no principles however sound— will protect the rights of the peoplo unless Its administration ts faithful and eflicient, It isa vital principle in our system that nelther fraud nor force must bu allowed to subvort tho rights of the people, When fraud, ylo- lence, or incompetence controls, the noblest constitutions and wisest ta ws are tiseless, ‘The bayonct {s not a fit Instrument for col- lecting the votes for freemen, It 1s only by a full vote,free ballot, and fair count that the people can rule in fact, ns required by, the theory of our Government, Take this foun- dation away, and the whole structure falls, “Public office {sa trust, ‘not a bounty be- stowed upon the holder, No Incompetent or dishonest person should over be intrusted with Jt, or, if appoluted, theyshould promptly be ofected.

Not only abnive soldier, a grent commander, a wise statesinan, and gr pure patriot, but a prudent, pala: practical man of unquestioned honest: ed often with hnportant public duites ful to every trust, and in the full meridian of ripe and vigorous manhood, he is in my judgnient eminently fitted for the highest of- fice on earth, the Presidency of the United States. Not only is he the rizhtinan for the place, but the time has come when the best interests of the country require that tlie party’ which has monopolized the Exeentive De- partnent of the General Goverment for the lust twenty years should: be retired. The continuance of that party in power four years longer. would not: be beneficial to the public .or fr accordance. with. ‘tho spirit of* our republican institu- tions, Tho = Inws of . entail have’ not been favored In our system of govern- ment. , The perpetuation of property or place In ono family or set of men has never been encouraged in this country, and the great and good men who formed our Republican Government and ils traditions wisely Itnited tho tenure of. office, and In imany, ways showed their disapproval of Jong lenses of power, ‘Iiwenty years of continuous power \s.
