Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Inaugural Address of William Cannon: Delivered at Dover, Upon Taking the Oath of Office as Governor of the State of Delaware, January 20, 1863 In assuming the office of the Chief Executive of the State, custom requires that I shall address you. In ordinary times, the functions of the Governor being limited to the performance of the usual duties specifically imposed by the Constitution, the occasion of inauguration commonly affords a narrow compass for remarks, and is chiefly interesting, as presenting an illustration of the sovereignty of the people, effecting a change of rulers by the peaceful decision of the ballot-box instead of the forcible arbitrament of the sword. Invested with no part of the Legislative power, the Executive has no direct agency in the enactment of the laws, and, even when giving information to the General Assembly and recommending measures expedient for the State, as enjoined by the Constitution, is generally confined to the recommendation of statutory changes in unimportant particulars, and very much of the actual legislation has been of merely local and individual interest.
