wealth should be the servant, not the
master, of the people. We believe
that unless representative govern-
ment does absolutely represent the
people it is not representative gov-
ernment at all. We test the'worth
of All men and all measures^by asking
how they contribute to the welfare
of the men, women, and children of
whom this nation ; ip composed. We
are engaged in one -of the great bat-
tles' of the age-long contest waged
against privilege on behalf of the
common welfare.
This country, as Lincoln said, be-
longs to the people. So do the natural
pesources which make it Vich. Tlgty

now and hereafter.

the benefits which it can yield are
secured to the people. Let us remem-
ber, also, that conservation does not
stop with the natural resources, but
thatj the princ^pl^of making the best
use of all we havevrequires with equal
or greater insistence * that we shall
stop the waste of human life in in-
dustry' and prevent the waste of hu-
man welfare which flows from th6

unfair use- of concentrated power and
wealth in the hands of men whose
eagerness for profit blind^ them to
the cost of whaf they do. - We have
no higher duty than to promote the
efficiency of the individual. There is
no, shrer road to the efficiency of the
nation.
All constitutions, those of the states
no less than that of the nation, are
designed, and must be interpreted
and administered so as to fit human
rights. *Lincoln so interpreted and
administered thp National Constitu-
tion. Buchanan attempted the re-
verse, attempted to fit hurpan rights
to, and limit them by, the Constitu-
tion. It was Buchanan who treated
the court* as a fetish, who protested
against and condemned all criticism
of the judges for unjust and unright-
eous decisions, and upheld the Con-
stitution as an instrument for the pro-
tection df privilege and of vested
wrong. It wasy Lincoln who appealed
to the people against the judges when
the judges went wrong, who advocat-
ed and secured what was practically
the recall of the Dred Scott decision,
and who treated the Constitution as
a living force for righteousness. We
stand for applying thq. Constitution* to
the issues of today as Lincoln applied
it to the issues of his day

; Lincoln
mind you,, and not Buchanan, was the
real upholder and preserver of the
Constitution, for the true progressive,
the progressive of the Lincoln stamp,
is the ohly true constitutionalist, the
only real conservative. The object
of every American Constitution worth
calling such must be what is set forth
to be, in the preamble of the National
Constitution, “to establish justice.”
that is,, to secure justice as between
man and man by means of genuine
popular self-government.
THE BEGINNING
OF A BANK-NOTE
Little Martia's baby dress though made of
the finest linen was ultimately worn thread-
bare. One day it landed in the rag bag. and
was sold to the junk dealer. When the rag sorter
touched the discarded garment he detected in * flash
the fine quality of the flax and set it aside for a journey
to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing at Washing-
ton. Eventually it becamejegal tender—a bank-note,
just how is told in one of the beautiful booklets
about Our Government which we are sending olcfe
month to thoee interested.
