Strana 92 - That all political power is vested in and derived from the people:" 2. "That the people of this state have the inherent, sole and exclusive right of regulating the internal government and police thereof, and of altering and abolishing their constitution and form of government, whenever it may be necessary to their safety and happiness.
Strana 155 - republican, and in conformity to the principles of the articles of compact between the original states and the people and states in the territory northwest of the river Ohio, passed on the 13th July 1787; and
Strana 292 - white male person of the age of 21 years or upwards, who shall be a citizen of the United States, and shall have resided in this state one year next preceding an election, and the last three months within the county, city or town in which he offers to vote, shall be deemed a qualified elector.

Strana 340 - is the law of tyrants; it is always unknown ; it is different in different men; it is casual, and depends upon constitution, temper and passion; in the best, it is oftentimes caprice; in the worst, it is every vice, folly and passion to which human nature is liable.
Strana 201 - contrary to the first great principles of the social compact, cannot be considered a rightful exercise of legislative authority. The obligation of a law, in governments established on express compact, and on republican principles, must be determined by the nature of the power on which it is founded; a
Strana 595 - male citizen of the age of twenty-one years, who shall have been a citizen for ten days, and an inhabitant of the state for one year next preceding the election, and for the last four months a resident of the county
