It regulates suffrage in all the states, Avithout regard to property, race or color. He maintains therefore that even his own State Government is not republican, for she has never authorized any such unlimited right. But we are not left for the refutation of such a doctrine to general reasoning. The meaning of the clause was stated by Mr. Madison in the 44th number of the Federalist; lie says that "it supposes a pre-existing Government of the form which is to be guaranteed. " No intimation was ...given by him or by any one in those days, or since, until the coming of the Sumner era, that the clause was designed to give to Congress the power to interfere with suffrage in the States, or that the States then about to create the Union, had not Governments of Republican form. It was indeed to these very Governments that the clause was to apply. It was to secure to the people of such States a continuing right to their enjoyment. If it had been suggested by any member of the Convention, that the Governments of Massachusetts andVirginia were notRepublican because there was in each but a restricted suffrage, it would have been pronounced a libel by Adams and Madison, and rejected as insulting to the patriots, by whom all the then State Governments had been established.
