Excerpt from The Connecticut Constitution At a time when much is said about the defects of our system of government, and the corrupt tendency so manifest in municipal, state, and national affairs is raising doubts as to the future of Republics, this work, which may be called a study in popular government, as affected by the exigencies of modern politics, is undertaken in the hope that it may tend to strengthen the faith of those who believe in government by the people, and that the people themselves can be depended upon to work for right and justice, whenever they fully understand and appreciate the situation. A condition of affairs has arisen which is causing many to declare that the people no longer rule in Connecticut; that the equality of man before the law is a myth; that we have drifted far away from the principles laid down by our forefathers in the constitution of 1639, and that the constitutional conditions existing in the State, tend more toward political corruption than in any State in the Union. It is folly or hypocrisy to say there is no ground for these statements. They are made by loyal and loving sons of the State, who make them with regret and only in the hope that by laying bare the truth a change may become possible. If by the following words a little impetus be given to the cause of good government, and toward restoring Connecticut to her former position of leadership in the march of constitutional progress, the writer will be satisfied.
