Excerpt from Tilden Memorabilia: A Series of Historical Letters There are two things of great interest to the American people at this day upon which the Constitution is silent: First, It does not prohibit a candidate from running for a third term for President Second, It does not disqualify a citizen who is 70 years of age from filling the Presidential office. But in civil government, as well as in moral law, there are two kinds of evil, each of which is to be avoided. The one is expressly mentioned in the letter of the law, and is called by the publicists malum prohibitum, a prohibited evil; the other, upon which the law is silent, is called malum in se - an evil in itself. The latter is often a graver evil than any denounced in constitutions and statute-books. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
