"PUBLIC OFFICE
IS A PUBLIC TRUST.'
The Origin of the Phrase in Dispute
and Its Antiquity Traced.
The editor of Hm pel's Week!)
is in 11 peck of trouble, and all be
cause lie Bndertook tu locate the
origlOBtor of the phrase "A public
0000 is 11 public trust. ' '
Harper's Identified ibe name uf
the late Daniel 8. Latmont with the
phrase under discussion, but beiug
called lo acoount by one ot iis
readers, suid :
"We did not say thai Colonel
I, annuit was the ftOthor of the
phraee "Public offloe is a public
trust "- only tlmt lie adapted it tu
fitting use in a Cleveland cam
paign, The originator, ire believe,
was the late Qovernor Ilunb s.
Thompaon, of South Carolina, arho
Aral employed the expression in
liis inaugural eddreia in issj."
A St. Paul, Minn., reader of
lini pel's, replying to this lateal
editorial declaration, snys:
"Daniel Webster, in a speech III
the (Moon, Huston, seventy yean
ago, igid : "It is time tu declare
ilmt offloea created for the people
inc public trusts, out private
ipolle," Volume 1. Works ul
lianiel Wnbater, p. 886. it maj
lie tlmt Hm Qovernor f Suuih
Carolina and Colouel Lam ml drew
their inspiration from ibe name
source.
The mail who uudertake tu name
1 he originator of the phrase 'Pub
He offloe is a public trust." bus as
turned a large task. In attributing
the origin lo Governor Thompaon,
ui South Carolina, Harper'a Week
ly does mil touch the mark. Oov
1 rdoi Thompaon need it in ish,
perhaps jus! us Abram 8. Bewitl
did in Isk.'I or Daniel S. Lamonl in
1SS4, us a phrase whiofa bad lie
come su general as to justify its
use without quotation murks.
Dorman B. Baton, a New York
lawyer, who became widely known
bj his advocacy of civil service re
form, siiul in 1881: "Tbe public
officea are a public trust. " But as
long- ago as May, IH7J, Charles
Snmuereaidi 'The phrase 'public
Office is a public trust' bus uf late
in collie common property. "
The St. Paul render nf Harpers'
correct ly taj 1 1 bat Daniel Webatei
declared, "it is tune lo declare that
offices created for the people ut'
public trusts, not private spoils."
.Mr. Webster delivered that speech
October 12, 1886 Hut un Febru
ary 13, 1836, John U Calhoun
said: "The very essence of a free
government constats in considering
offices as public trust bestowed
tor the good uf the country, and
nut for the benefit of an Individual
urn party." So the phrase cer
tainly did not originate with Web
ster. Neither did it originate with
Calhoun, because years before
Burke, tu his address mi the French
Revolution, said: "To execute
laws is a royal offloe; tu execute
orders is not to be a king. How
ever, a political executive magis
tracy, though merely such, is a
great trust." In the same address
Bnrke taid: "All persons possess
ing any purl inn of power might to
be strongly and awfully impreaead
with an idea that they act in trust,
and that they are to account for
their conduct tn that trust tu the
une great Master, Authur ami
Founder of society.." In the same
111 dress ntirue sum: lu tlicir
nomination to uflico they will not
point to the exercise of authority
is tn a pitiful job, but as tu a huh
function."
Thomas Jefferson In 1807 said:
When 11 man assumes it. public
trust be should consider himself as
public property.'1
Hut umniig t lit claims with re
spect to the origin of tins phrase,
those of Matthew Henry arc not to
be entirely ignored. Matthew
Henry was a Hritish divine, who
died in 1714. He published a com
mentary upon the old and new
Testaments. In the third chapter
uf the first hpistle to Timothy, re
ferring to tbe iiialiflcations of
deacons, as well as of bishops, it is
wild, and let these, also, Qrst b
proved." Commenting on this
Matthew Henry said: "It is not
fit that the public trusts should be
lodged in the hand of any, till they
hnve been first proved and found lit
for the business they are to be in
trusted with."
Clearly, tbe phrase did not origi
nate as Harper s Weekly says it
did, with the governor of Smith
iiroliua, nnr as the St Haul
render says, with Webster.
Of course, the exact origin is not
of the greatest importance, but it
is a good sign that public interest
bus been aroused in tihruscs of this
sort; and whether it comes in tin
words of Matthew Henry, of JefTer
son, uf Hurkc, of L'nlhoun, of
Webster or men of more recent
days it is particularly important at
this time Hint elector and elected
understood that, as Disraeli put it,
All power is a trust, und we are
accountable for its exercise." The
Commoner.

these are Proteaants, The netual

the primitive church in its preonp

must assume that the primitive
church COUld have created the
Christ, though he is compelled to
admit the modern church could not
do it. Hut if we take the New
