to deal in half measures, to produce an instrument that would please the people, others favored doing thorough work of abolishing the confederation and founding a new federal republic. Among these was Washington. He made on eof the noblest speeches ever uttered by himself or any statesman. “If to please the people” said he, “we offer what we ourselves disapprove, how can we afterwards defend our work. Let us raise a standard to which the wise and honest can repair. The event is in the hand of

God.”

The Virginia delegates carefully framed a form of government which had been drawn up by Madison after much consulting with others. This “Virginia Plan” provided for a complete change of the government for the formation of a federal union with three coordinate branches of government, a legislative, an executive and a judicial. These proposed changes were so radical that it called forth another known as the New Jersey Plan. It was just merely a proposal

resented, regardless of wealth, size or population. The Senate thereof was i intended to represent the state- .mi , the house, the people. Thus ean state to this day has two Senators, while the number of delegates in the house of Representatievs is detei-

mind by population,

j The second compromise was between the free and the slave states. The northern states all had slave? oefore the Revolution but they were now drifting toward emancipation, while the institution was strengthening in the far south. The dispute that arose in the convention was the beginning of that long and dreadful conflict which lasted three-fourths of a century. The question arose: Are slaves wealth or population. The northern delegates contended that as slaves had no vote and was bought and sold like property, they should not he counted in the census that make up the representation of congress nor in the laying of direct ' taxes. The south objected claiming that all slaves should be counted. Madison suggested that by way of compromise, three-fifths of the slaves be counted. The south agreed and i the practice continued until after the

J Civil War.

; The third compromise was between the commercial and agriculture states. It also touched upon slavery. New England wanted Congress to be given I control over the foreign interstate : commerce. The southern states were afraid of farm products and slave trade. They wanted each state to control their own commerce. Before that question was settled, another arose. Shall the African slave-trade be prohibited. A large majority of j the delegates opposed foreign slave trade. But Georgia and South Carolina objected to this opposition in loud tones. They said they would not join the union unless they could have , a large supply of blacks for their rice swamps. The debates were fierce and the convention was on the verge of dissolution as it had been several times before. If the southern states ; refused to join, it was certain that : no union could be formed. Two important questions were now before the house and again harmony was restored by compromise. The south yielded to New England and Congress was given control over the foreign interstate commerce! except it was forbidden to lay an export tax.) The north yielded to the slave holders and the African trade was

left open until 1808.

After the compromises the most arduous work of the convention was over. So thorough was the work of this convention that only the Bill of Right and nine amendments have

been added since 1787.

On the whole the instrument was a compilation not an original production. It was the culmination of the institutional growth of two centuries —a tree with a trunck purely American grafted on an English root. The framers of our constitution were very i wise—too wise to draw on their imagination or to base the government of a notion on theory. No man or body of men can create systems of government. They must grow. They displayed great wisdom in selecting the best things that had been tried and proved. Hence the astonishing fact that this same constitution is still the supreme law of the land and is more deeply embedded in the American hearts to day than

ever before.

The Constitution of the U. S. is by far the most important production of of its kind in human history. It was created without historic precedent, a federal national government. It combined national strength with individual liberty in a degree so remarkable as to attract the world’s admi-

ration. Never before

It was left for our own ' Revolutionary fathers to strike the balance betyeen these opposing tendencies to join them together in such a way as to secure the benefits of both.
