Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shall the Proposed New Constitution Be Adopted?: Propostition to Be Voted Upon at a Special Election December 12, 1922 The Chicago Bureau of Public Efficiency functions primarily in matters relating to local government in Chicago and Cook county. It is especially interested in the provisions of the proposed new constitution bearing upon the governmental situation in this community. However, the welfare of Chicago is concerned not only with local provisions but with all important provisions in which this city has a common interest with other parts of the state. In the accompanying statement, therefore, the Bureau reviews the new document as a whole, setting forth its reasons for concluding that the best interests of the state and of Chicago will be advanced if the voters approve the proposed constitution. In another publication recently issued, entitled "The Proposed New Constitution for Illinois," the Bureau prints the text of the proposed new constitution, with extensive explanatory comments, and the text of the constitution of 1870, with cross references to the new instrument. It is designed especially to meet the needs of writers, speakers, and others who may wish thoroughly to familiarize themselves with the details of the changes made. Until the limited edition of that publication is exhausted, any citizen of Illinois may secure a copy free of cost by writing to the Chicago Bureau of Public Efficiency, 315 Plymouth Court, Chicago.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Constitution In times prosperous at home and peaceful abroad, the people of England have not desired of their rulers any change in the system of their representation. In domestic distress, or with foreign revolution, on the contrary, the clamour for such an experiment has been usually raised, but has hitherto been silenced by patient firmness on the part of the government. During last November, these two stimulants combined to produce in the country an unusual agitation: but the accession of the Whigs to office soothed the excitement, the gentry with the middle classes quieted the disorders of the southern counties, and the Belgic revolution threw fresh employment into the manufacturing towns.

This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Constitutional History of the United States Important additions have been made to the original Constitution by way of amendment, but scarcely more so than those which have come to it through the process of the gradual unfolding of its unexpressed meaning, which has naturally followed the expansion of our national domain, the development of our national re sources, the meeting of new responsibilities in govern ment, the contending with new difficulties which have confronted us in the execution of our newly acquired powers. While we have a wmtten, and therefore, in a' certain sense, a settled Constitution, it is an elastic one. Had the original Constitution of 1787 been so limited by its own terms that it could not have been construed to mean more than was actually and clearly expressed by the language in which it was clothed, our Government would soon have gone to wreck or have remained a feeble and insignificant member of the sisterhood of nations, unless by amendment of the old, or by the adoption of a new constitution new power had been given it. Fortunately it was not so framed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Story of the Constitution of the United States Classic Reprint written by Francis Newton Thorpe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Constitution of the United States The story of the Constitution is of truth stranger than fie tion. It is natural to attribute to an institution throughout its history that reputation which it bears in our own day. Many men are yet living who remember with startling dis tinctness a time when the Constitution seemed merely a piece of parchment; when the fate of the nation was as uncertain as the course of battle; when stern necessity compelled so liberal an interpretation of the supreme law of the land that states men refrained from forming conclusions on the tendency Of national administration, and, looking hopefully forward, sought new meanings in events where before they had sought interpretation by a construction Of words. Then, and not till then, in our history was the Constitution of the United States understood in its spirit as being the expression of the nation's mind, Whatever that mind might be. But no man now living can remember the angry days when the Constitu tion was yet a hope or a proposition debated between jealous States and still more jealous political leaders. NO one can re member the living opinions which, at the close of the eight eenth century, so nearly triumphed, and whose triumph would have dissolved a feeble union of States and encouraged the horrors of an anarchy only possible in a democracy. When the Opinions on national government in America to-day and opinions Of a century ago are contrasted, it is difficult to be lieve that we are the children of our fathers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Constitution The general question, then, doubtless requires full discussion - the apology for a government which applies royal authority to such a measure as this must shew far deeper grounds of neces sity. Yet what urgency has been alleged by its movers for this headlong proposal?

It is, as was the Federal Constitution and as all such measures must be, the result of compromise. The address of the Convention also says that the only question to be answered is: Does the proposed new Constitution, on the whole and in view of the needs of all of the people of the whole state, promise better governmental conditions than the present Constitution?
