THIS IS A REPUBLIC
A Tennessee businessman re
cently was subjected to a barrage
1 of criticism from liberal-leftist
sources because he stamped his
letters with the statement: ‘ This
is a republic, not a democracy;
let's keep it that way.’’
The word ' republic’’ violently
antagonized the left-wing, and it
sought by various means to cen
sor the patriotic businessman.
Yet this country IS a republic.
And the fact was recently restat
ed by an outstanding American
leader. Senator Thomas Dodd
j(D-Conn.). •
Addressing the graduating
class at the University of Dallas. |
Senator Dodd laid down the great |
truths of our constitutional sys
tem.
“It Is a Republic,” Senator
Dodd declared, “whose basic
principle is representative gov

REV. BRICE SHUMPERT
The Rev Brice Shumpert, new
pastor of Bailey Memorial Metho
dist Church, occupied the pulpit
for the first time last Sunday.
He is a native of Lexington and
his pastorates have been in that
area He came to Clinton after
three years at the Methodist
Church at Eutwaville.

ernment rather than by direct
rule by the people.
“It is a federation, under which
the jurisdiction and power is di-1
vided between the states and the their two daughters, Dianne, 15,
federal government. an( j Christine, 13, are occupying
It is a limited government, the parsonage opposite the church
which marks off certain areas of Bailey street
activity which neither state nor
1 federal government can Invade ”
These basic aspects of our gov-
l ernment need restatement from
time to time But, of course, the
j liberal-leftists want to conceal
from the American people the
real nature of our governmental
system They are busy attempt
ing to fasten a new kind of total!
tarian “democracy” on the
American peopie. What the New
Frontiersmen want to do is to
smash down all barriers between
the individual citizen and the su
per-bureaucracy in Washington
To this end. they want to destroy
state government as a convenient
device for distributing federal
handouts
The founders of this country
well understood the dangers of the
individual confronted by a sover
eign power That’s what they fac
ed in colonial times when the
Crown abused them To prevent
such direct confrontation, they
established the barriers of state
government and the division of
powers among the Executive, Ju
dicial and legislative branches of
government With these barriers
in existence, they figured, the in
dividual would be protected from
tyrannical rule by the device of
the Constitution.
“We ought to be partisan in be
half of this Constitution.'’ says
Senator Dodd “We ought to hon
or and respect it. And we ought to
think carefully before applauding
witticisms about our 'horse and
buggy’ government or laments
about the difficulty of living In
the 20th century with 18th cen
tury institutions.”
Americans should realize that
the 18th century was an age In
which liberty was a flaming pas
sion The 20th century, unhappily,
is an age of creeping socialist and
communist tyranny. It is an age
of Big Brother rule, governmental
snooping, and growing state con
trol over private enterprise and
private actions of all sorts
There's nothing wrong with our
Constitution conceived in the 18th
century. After all, millions of
Americans believe in a religious
faith rthat is almost 2,000 years
old! Both are as good today as
they were when established
Truth remains the same; princi
ples do not change
So long as Americans under
stand that this is a republic, not
a Castro-type democracy where
crowds scream approval of the
theft of their liberties, this coun
try is safe But safety also de
pends on resisting the brain-wash
ing of those who deny this is a re
public. As Senator Dodd warns,
the “movement to undermine re
publican institutions takes an or
derly, non-violent course But it
is nonetheless dangerous and its
possible end result, the creation
of a supreme central government,
free from the many restraints
now imposed upon it, could have
the same dread effect on free
dom.”
Yes, this is a republic, not a
democracy; let’s keep It that
way!
