Sentinel Features of 1787 By RAYMOND PITCAIRN FINAL REVISIONS By early September of the sig- nificant year 1787, members of the Federal Convention meeting in In- dependence Hall had agreed on al- most every principle that makes our United States Constitution so sturdy a foundation for government of the people, by the people and for the People. Now the product of their delibera- tions went to a special committee appointed to “revise the style of, and arrange the articles which have been agreed to by the House.” To ,this Committee of Revision historians have paid high tribute. To it they attribute much of the direct- ness, simplicity and economy of lan- guage for which our American Con- stitution is notable. It was to a group of distinguished statesmen and scholars that the avers assigned this important task. Gouverneur Morris, of Pennsylva- nia, generally accredited with writ- ing the finished report, was a bril- liant lawyer and legislator, who later served in the United States Senate and as Minister to France. Other members were Dr. William Samuel Johnson. of Connecticut, a graduate of Oxford and President of Columbia College; Alexander Hamil- ton, of New York, soldier, lawyer, legislator and first Secretary of the Treasury; James Madison, of Vir- gimia, who became our fourth Pres- ident: and Rufus King, of Massa- chusetts, noted orator, who was later to serve in the United'States Senate and as Minister to Great Britain. The activities of the week were, however, by no means limited to the work of the special committee. On the Convention floor the delegates continued to smooth out many more or less important details. They agreed. for example: That patents and copyrights should be granted “to promote the progress of science and the useful arts.” That the President should be chosen by special Electors. ‘That “the House must originate, ‘but the Senate may amend, money bills.” ‘That “the Legislature may propose amendments to the Constitution, to be binding when assented to by three-fourths of the States.” That “an address to the States accompany the Constitution, when transmitted for ratification.” Much of the discussion centered on the powers of, and restraints upon, the Presi- dent and Vice- President. It was decided to give the Chief Exec- utive the power, in concurrence with the Sen- ate, to appoint officers of the United States, “whose appointments are not other- wise provided for” in the Constita- tion. On the proposal that the Vice- President sit as President ex officio of the Senate, interesting debate arose. George Mason, of Virginia, pro- tested that the office would be “an encroachment on the rights of the Senate; and that, it mixed too much the Legislative’ and the Executive, which, as’well’as the Judiciary de- partment, ought to bé kept as sepa rate as possible.” ,- 5 Elbridge Gerry, of Massachusetts, offered further obj in the fear that the plan’ mi Executive too-'much power. “We might'as well,“:he said, “put the President himself at the head of the Legislature. The close intimacy that must subsist between the Pres- ident and Vice-President makes it absolutely improper.” To this Gouverneur Morris offered @ prompt and witty response: “The Vice - President,” he said, “then will be the first heir-apperent that ever loved his father. ai settied, the DOINGS AROUND THE GOLF LINKS ErCRAYY): Some of the golf players were unable to get out last Sunday or Monday for one reason or other; some, of them had wives, mind the children and some had wives who made them take a lunch basket and fishing implem- ents and indulge the sport which made Mr. Isaac Walton so famous. Still a couple of other in i 5 9 2 golfers spent the day asleep (as) quitoes, rainsqualls and wives’ ire and partook of the royal and an- cient pastime. with the story: Mr, Samvel Harris (our genial Postmaster) got tired of always game and so built a fine abbre- viated golf course in his front yard. So if you passed by his house and saw Sam swing a stick in the yard, he was not cutting grass nor killing crabs but was practicing up his chip shots and entertaining the neighbors with his wit and other facetious re- marks. However, on Monday aft- ernoon, Sam and his partner, Sam- uella Weather Goldsmith, met the an-| how they were beaten But let us get on; {6 down on the score but edged up to 1 down by the time the match was ended and Mr. Strunk and Mr. Doc ,had not yet figured out but Mr. Mesa can tell them very quickly. ‘Mr. Old Bye Duke of Rock Sound has been feeling pretty good the last couple of days on ;account of being a winner in the jlast two matches. It seems that he had John Pinder for a partner and Bill Fripp and Roy Lade as 1] usual) while a few braved the mos-! opponents and not counting miss- Sands |ed strokes or putts, Mr. was on the top side of a 6-up seore. ‘He says you must not pay too much attention to the 105 score. In another match Mr. Duke had ‘Bill Fripp for a partner and they {played Grandpa Bob Stowers and! |Cookie Mesa and the results were; being on the losing side of the!2 up for Mr. Sands and Mr. Fripp | too!lar Business Director on account of Grandpa had many shots out of the rough.
