fonstitutJonw -SSL -t/ CALCB JOHHSOH XI. THE GROWTH OF NATIONALISM For many years, after the rati fication of the Constitution, States men and men of affairs were di vided as to the exact character of the Government set up under it. To one school of thoughts, of which Thomas Jefferson was the foremost exponent, the. Government was lit tle more than a treaty between sovereign states. In the eyes of the other group, led by Alexander Hamilton, it was the foundation of a Nation. Ultimately the Hamil tonian point of view', was to be come generally accepted, though only after a long and bitter strug gle. Hamilton, as Secretary of the Treasury under President Washing ton, brought about the acceptance by -the owners of Wealth of his viewpoint of Federal supremacy. Under his leadership the 'new Fed eral Government assumed the debts of the state, thereby taking its stand as something bigger and bet ter than the states. This was fol lowed by other bold and rapid strokes of financial policy, all tending Ijoi the same end of national supremacy. He established a tariff on imports, an excise tax and an internal revenue service and, as a crowning stroke, a national bank. It was Hamilton's purpose to estab lish a government in which wealth should stand at the helm, guiding and steadying the ship of state. ' Under the leadership of Thomas Jefferson, whose faith was in the masses rather than in the classes the doctrine of states' right, as op posed to Federal rights under the Constitution, began to take shape, As early as 1798 the General As sembly of Virginia adopted resolu tions protesting against encroach ment upon states rights by the Fed eral Government and asserting the right of each state to decide for it self the constitutionality of Fed eral laws affecting state interests, in the same year the new sltate of Kentucky adopted similar resolu tions. Kentucky went further, and implied the right of a State to with draw from the Union. Thus were sown the seeds of the political parties which have strug gled against each' other for 135 years for control of the Federal Government. And the first impor tant amendment to the Constitu tion, after the Bill of Rights, was one which recognized the existence of the partisan spirit. Tailoring Dress Making All Kinds of Sewing Mrs. C. W.

ELKIN PLUMBING AND HEATING CO. Elkin, N. C. The twelfth amendment changed the previous method of electing the President to be the method which is still followed. Under the original system, the candidate receiving the largest number of electoral votes became President and the one re ceiving the .second largest number became Vice President. The effect, of that today, if it were still the Constitutional rule, would be that Mr. Roosevelt would be President and Mr. Hoover would be Vice President! With the division of public senti ment into two diametrically oppos ing camps, such a situation was not to be tolerated, so the Constitution was amended, in 1798, to provide for the eleotors' choosing both Presi dent and Vice President at the same time, with the further provision that the President and Vice President shall not both be residents of the same state, and that in case no can didate has a majority of electoral votes, then the House of Represen tatives shall elect one of the three leading candidates, in its discretion. Thus, on the eve of the 19th cen tury, the new nation was not only well launched upon its career but was embarked upon the stormy voy age of partisan politics.
