f'_ ' The Address of the Retiring Delegates. ?v, The address of the retiring delegate*, net. -^Jing f? rth ihoir reasons for withdrawing from the Convent'no, is a plain, simple stotemrnt. Caught in a few words, the Convention proceeded to do that which the delegates conceived that tho people had not charged them with doing?had not elected them to do. Bill It may bo asked who is to determine this ma'tor? Tho address quotes Senator Carlisle, than whom thete is no abl r pailV) montariao, profonnder thinker nor more exi. perienced Democrat i:i the land, as saying : 'When a Convention is culled for a special purpose, its authority is necessarily limited by tho terms of tho call itself." So in the decision of-tho Court of Ap|>eals, \ Jud re O* Neall held : "A Convention assembling under tlie Constitution is on'y the people for the purpose fnr wl.i. l. it ..........1.1.... * * * It is true the Legislature cannot limit the Convention, but if the people elect them for the purpose of doing a specific not or duty pointed out by the Act of ilie Legislature, the Act would define their lowers; for the people elect in reference to I hut and nothing else." So in the fame case Chancellor Harper's opinion was : To conclude that the people intended to invest the Convention with their authority for any other purpose but the purpose specified wouhl be plain usurpation of the power of the people.' It will be seen that the opinion of the great parliamentarian of to-day was on allfours with tho opinions of two of the greatest Judges who ever s-t on any American bench. Let us see if we can get the very keynote of all these opinions. Is it not in the underlying principle incncnn?*<tgJJ8fe* . our Con-ii!Jtiov I'ederal j the pco]dc gioue are sovereign.^pt<f aW miob ' ^ part with this sovereignly or the exflkwe mESv thereof so far only lis their conscut w^p.' Ilcnce if there be n limit or qualification To y that conscut lbat limit or qualification becomeS% pari and parcel ol the consent. And hence outside the limitation or qualification. uo consent; and outside of the consent, nomuth'ority. ^ As Judge t)'J>call clearly put- it : Though * ihe Act of a Leoislntnro in iisi>lf imhhhi limit power* of lEu convent i ->n. tin- c'eclion of the people under tlie retraining Ael accepts the restraints of ll^e Act. hii<1 hence defines the powers it entrusts tiie Convention; nod hence, too. Cha cellor Harper's holding ^ that for n convention to go heyond t'ic spcoilied purpose of iU> ?-^ll vt yuid be a p ain usurpation of the ptflfcr t>f the people. Nothing cm to4, clearer nothing more complete. It is W^^?7cignty of the people it?e1f that hinds u Convention to tlic specified purposes of it 4 call. Now, substituting the mcuihjrs of a party for the people, we see the whole power of the par'y rests in the individual members there>f. And when they cho<w? delegate* under a call for a specified purpose i'- is the specified purpose under which they .net mi l accept its lheir own luiii'aiion and nualifiettion which restrains the chosen t'ou\enli m, and not the mere cinature or instrument for making the call, whether il he a legislature or an executive committee.

The Convention assembled under the call of the State Kxeeutivo Committor, "for the sole nti'l exclusive purpose of determining whether do egutvs to the Sta'e Nominating Court ntion to bo held on the 10th day of Scpteiuh-r, or thereafter, should he clo ted hy primary election, to he lield on a certain day throughout the State, and for no other purpose win. I soever." The Convention, after its orgauiztrion, instead of transacting the business for which it had hen summoned, proceeded to take action look II* to tlie adontion of n. now nin stitution for the party in this Slate, making many important changes in that instrument Agnin^t this notion wo nin<le such argument ns was possible in the limitcl time allowed for debute by the innjor.ty of the Convention.
