Book excerpt: Excerpt from Citizenship of the United States In the more restricted meaning of the term, a citizen is a per son who has the right to vote for public officers and on public measures, and who is qualified to hold offices in the gift of the: people. But this definition is too narrow, for minors - who are not permitted to vote - and women - who are allowed to exercise the franchise in only a few of the states - are citizens. In the broad sense of the word, citizens are the people, the members of the state or nation, including men, women, and children. In the United States thev are the sovereign power.

This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rights and Duties of American Citizenship The purpose of the present work is to present to American youths practical information as to the rights and duties which attach to American citizenship. In the effort to do this in the clearest and most logical form, the stereotyped method of giving a running commentary upon the Constitution has been discarded. Of all political forms, the federal type is the most complex; and it is, therefore, little short of absurd to attempt, as do so many text-books on Civics, to explain to students who are without previous training the constitutional relations of our elaborate system of national, state, and local governments, without first giving to them a knowledge of the nature of political authority, the purposes for which it exists, and the general governmental means through which such purposes are attained. In the present work it is believed that this error has been avoided. The student is first given that information which is essential to an understanding of citizenship and government in general, before he is called upon to study the description of our own complex government in particular. This book is therefore divided into two parts. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The title given to this book, "Woman's Suffrage by Constitutional Amendment," is not the same under which the lectures were originally given. Their title was "Local Self-Government." The reader will see that the real discussion in these pages is devoted to the proper and rightful demarcation of the powers of the Federal and State Governments under the Constitution of the United States, and the necessity for maintaining those powers in a just equilibrium for the preservation of the Liberty of American citizens.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Citizen: His Rights and Duties, According to the Spirit of the Constitution of the United States Being thus satisfied that there was no real propriety in declin ing the enterprise proposed, 'on the mere ground of professional objection, the only difficulty which remained was the personal doubt, whether I could hope to execute it acceptably. True, indeed, it was, that it might be better done by others. But this could hardly be admitted as a valid excuse, because it would Ope rate equally against every human undertaking All that I had a right to assume was the necessity of possessing a competent share of, the knowledge, reflection, and experience which the work required. The first thirty years of life passed in the stud ies, business, and intercourse of the world - seven of those years given to the profession of the law - Sixteen years devoted to the task of education - the training of a numerous family - abun dant Opportunities of intimacy, abroad and at home, with all the classes of society, and the whole united, from my youth up, with the constant love of books, and the peculiar tastes and habits of an author - all this seemed to warrant the hope that I might produce a work of some utility on the rights and duties of the American citizen, Without any serious diminution of the labors due to the paramount service of the Gospel. 'at all events, I could not honestly deny that I ought to be tolerably qualified to make the effort, with a fair promise of success; and therefore I concluded\that the attempt would not be justly liable to the charge of inconsistency or presumption.

Therefore, the elements which enter into the inquiry should be considered. The first inquiry should be the means by which citizenship is acquired; whether by descent or naturalization; in either one of these two ways citizenship is generally conferred except in cases of adoption by marriage. Municipal rules have value within the territory of their juris diction, but have no extra-territorial effect.

While there was not the same motive to give them suffrage before naturalization as there was in Wisconsin and Indiana, there was also lacking the sentiment that prevailed in New England. The only feature of this constitution that could be looked upon as working against the foreigner was the two-year-residence requirement. The constitution under which "bleeding Kansas" joined the Union in 1861 was drawn in 18 59. As the epithet implies, there had been a long and bitter contest over this state as to whether or not slavery should be permitted there. There is no occasion to go into that controversy here. It is dealt with in most general histories and occupied a great deal of time in Congress;' but the constitution finally adopted and put in operation in Kansas permitted foreigners to vote after declaring their intention to become citizens. On February 22, 18 56, the American party ("KnowNothings") held a national convention at Philadelphia and drew up a party platform. They specifically denounced Wisconsin and certain territories for having admitted aliens to the suffrage and proceeded to declare some very radical doctrines. Two of the articles in their platform are as follows: Article 8. An enforcement of the principle that no state or territory ought to admit others than citizens to the right of suffrage or of holding political oflices in the United States. ' House Committee Reports, First Session, Thirty-fifth Congress, III, 82, No. 377. Article 9. A change in the laws of naturalization, making a continued residence of twenty-one years, of all not heretofore provided for, an indispensable requisite for citizenship hereafter.1 This party had been growing for some years and was one of the very few...

This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: CHAPTER III SUFFRAGE Suffrage a Privilege, not a Right. ? There is a disposition on the part of many, especially in this country, to demand that the suffrage, or power of voting, be given to every citizen as a natural right, irrespective of his qualification to use it properly. No claim could be less warranted. The suffrage is a privilege, not a natural or inherent right. It is a reward for merit or capacity, not a power to be unconditionally demanded. The citizen is endowed with the privilege of voting, and thereby of participating in the determination of the policies of government and the selection of the officials who shall transact it, in order that by its exercise the good of the state may be maintained. It is, therefore, for the state itself to determine by its laws, when, and by whom, and under what conditions, this power shall be used. As one writer has forcibly said: The pretension that every man has the necessary qualifications of a citizen simply because he was born twenty-one years ago, is as much as to say that labor, merit, virtue, character, and experience are to count for nothing. As a matter of fact, we do, in this country for the most part, give the suffrage to all adult male citizens, but this is because, upon the whole, they aredeemed qualified to possess it, and because, thereby, all have been given a direct interest in public affairs. But it is believed by many that we have been too precipitate in thus extending the suffrage. Certainly this is true in those states in which aliens who have not yet become citizens have been given the right to vote. As regards the granting of the privilege to the negro population irrespective of capacity, this would seem also to be a mistake. Woman Suffrage. ? In a few states the right to vote has been given to wo...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rights and Duties of Citizens, of the United States: A Manual of Citizenship The scholars in our public schools and colleges should be instructed as to the elements that go to make up a good and useful citizen of our country, and the obligations, civil, social, and political, due to others from them. They should be instructed to yield respect and obedience to the laws, and to hold on with unflinching firmness to the Constitution and the Union of States. They should be taught the love of liberty and order, to walk in the path of patriotism, of fidelity to our country, and of duty to God. This is necessary in order that when they become of adult age they may be prepared to exhibit wisdom in the cabinet; the purest patriotism; the highest integrity, public and private; morals without a stain; and religious feelings without intolerance and without extravagance. In this little manual of the rights and duties of citizenship I sing the love of country and the pride of country to the youth of both sexes of my country. I teach the need of beating back ones country's enemies, whether they reside in or out of the United States - a most true song, to which I hope the hearts of the youth of our country will burst responsive into fiery melody, followed by fiery strokes before long.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Right of Suffrage: With an Appendix There is a degree of popular influence admitted into some of the European governments, which mod ifies, and sometimes to a great extent, the exercise of the executive authority, and gives it a direction and influence highly favorable to popular rights. But there is no country in Europe where political and civil lib erry and popular rights form the very basis and funda mental principles of the government, as in the United States of America. In those countries, many of the most important powers of government are inherited by birth; and the people have no voice in designating the persons who shall exercise them. The powers of the government may be said to be embodied in certain families by hereditary right; and those who inherit them, to a certain extent, constitute the government of the country. They will, of course, be vigilant to suppress and prevent any movement of the people that shall have a tendency to deprive them of these pow ers, or to direct them so as to give an ascendancy to popular influence.
