The True Daniel Webster Etc With Plates Including Portraits PDF Download

Excerpt from The Writings and Speeches of Daniel Webster, Vol. 5 of 18: Illustrated With Portraits and Plates; Speeches in Congress, Etc Now, if the people may, without injustice, act upon this pref erence, and from a sole regard to this qualification, and refuse in any instance to depart from it, they have an equally clear right to prescribe this qualification beforehand, as a rule for their future government. If they may do it, they may agree to do it. If they deem it necessary, they may so say, beforehand. If the public will may require this qualification at every election as it occurs, the public will may declare itself beforehand, and make such qualification a standing requisite. That cannot be an nu just rule, the compliance with which, in every case, would be right. This qualification has nothing to do with any man's conscience. If he dislike the condition, he may decline the Office, in like manner as if he dislike the salary, the rank, or any thing else which the law attaches to it.
