t Mr. Overman laW: .,
Mi President: Written In the consll
tuilon of the great State of North Caro
lina, which I have the honor In part
to represent. Is the following- eto,
which at the present time 1 very lgnlti-
'recurrpnoe to first principles la ah
Muteiy fr.eressary to "the preiiervatlon
of our liberties.
Judging from newspaper articles, mag
silnec articles, and eertuln tmnquet
apecch.es, the very significant utterancea
of men of prominence, great leaders of
the Kepoblican party, who fetirleesly
and candidly declare the doctrine of
the old Federal, and who proios In
a measure to hap the policy of their
party and declare it issue, and, Judg
ing from certain measures which are
proposed here, It la high time that we
should recur to fundamental principle
and maintain tho4 Immortal truths and
tenent upon which rest the very frame
work of this great republic; and It is
about time to stop and take our bearings
and see whither we are drifting, to guard
against being dashed to pieces against tho
rook of anll-RepuWleanlHm or against
being driven Into unknown sfas.
Chief Justice Marshall never stated a
greater truth than when upon one oc
casion he slated that delected powers
are often abused. If they wfre liable to
abuse In his dav, how much more now,
when men sre thlnrtlng for more power,
are they liable to abtie t- suit the pur
pose of those In authority, who, acting
perhaps as they think for the bot Inter
ests of the country. nr tempted to put
the most strained construction upon the
commeroa clause of the constitution?
Bills hsyve been Introduced In this Con
frees to regulate child labor In the fac
tories ana mines ot trie si"-.
Introduced by the se nlotyjenntor from
MaeiiachuaettM IMi. Lodirela And a bill
proposed by the xenlor Senator from In
diana Mr. Bevortdgel. '
This bill has nlsf t,rn proposed a an
amendment to the bill now pending to
tegulate child labor In the District of
Columbia,
Mr. Prescient, the enactment Into 'aw
of either one of these blll. In my Judg
ment, would be not only to stretch al
most to the breaking the commerce
clause of the constitution, but would be
e usurpation of the rights of the State
or tha people, an assumption of that
vower which they reserved when the
tenth amendment to the original consti
tution wl adopted

In the government, and with Oiwe de
slrea reuilsod a goveniinent of the peo
ple, for Die people, and by the jxsoplo
will be a thing of the punt.
Under our dull system of jtovernment,
tho reserved and delegated powera re
spected and no Intrenc.hmeiit upon one
nor the other, this country has progress
ed beyond the wildest d rooms of tha
fathers, our civilisation has rapidly ad
vanced, our Innerase of wealth baa been
marvelous, and there is no reason why
tho aystem should b changed and the
limitations plaoed in tho constitution bo
obliterated; thert is no reason for any
departure from tha fundamental prin
ciples as construed and poundad by
the founders of tha republic ; end by
tho highest court of tht land.
There la no question but that this gov
ernment derived air tha power trhas
from tha people of tho States, and Its
constitution was adopted by them with
It written limitation and ehecka against
abuses and usurpations. Shall the Con
gress not reapect the llmltatlona of the
constitution? And in tha language of
that great charter of our liberties, shall
It disparage the right retained by the
people?
No, Mr. President, tha rights reserved
to the gtatca or to the people must be
peacefully but efficiently protected
etralnst anv encroachment by the gen
eral government. And this great body
which repreent the States should see
to It that there shall be no Invasion up
on these, powers, snouio see to it mm
the fundamental principles of our Tree
institution are maintained In their full
trength and vigor. For an encroach
ment unon these reerved right to the
extent which the tendencies of the time
seem to be leading would "be for the
central government to Interfere with, ad
minister upon, and control the Industrial,
the local, and the domestic concerns of
the people In he States, and when once
begun and the precedent established
there ts no telling wnere it wnuw ipbu
nor where It would end, and State. ov-
erelgnty would finally be no more. In
stead of Impairing the sovereignty of the
State It Is the duty of Congress to uphold
und protect It to the laet.
If more power is neeoeo tor trie suc
cessful operation of the government ow
ing to changed conditions, tho way It
clearly pointed out; the method Is pro
vided for In tho constitution by Article
V. Let an amendment be aubmltred to
the States. In nny event, let the pen pi 4
be consulted' let their sacred will in
known, let their consent be given to the
surrender of any of thilr rlgb.l. and
without their consent let nothing be
done by nn unwarranted construeilon.
I will here read. Mr. President, the
Inter-Htato commerce clause of the con
stitution:
The Congress shall have power to Ten
wlae commerce with foretxni .nut Ions
and among the several Hinted, and with
the Indlnn tribes.
It might be Important here to observe
that In the debates In the constitutional
convention history shows thin much
more extensive grants of commer
cial power were proposed, asked
for, and most strenuously advocat
ed, but all such propositons wer
voted down and this simple clause adopt
ed by the wise men who composed that
convention and who, being fresh from
the people, respected their will.
I'nder the oower hero given, which
was absolutely necessary for the gen
eral government to have In order to har
moniously ajid efficiently regulate the
commerce between the States and foreign
nations, It is now claimed and serlouly
roritendeu ry some in una nay nun un--
that there l no limit to the extent of
tho power of Congress In commercial
natters, and this is claimed In the face
of frequent deliverance of the Supremo
Court construing this clause. j
There . probable, Mr. President, no j
limit t'i the ixiwer of Congre." to deal I
wllh commerce) as soon iw ll begins lit i
transit or Journey and until It ends and
to deal with It while In trunelt hetween
Vhe States, and also It has full power to j
prescribe all the rules, regulations, and
conditions under which It l governed. ;
Hut HS 'ntiKTesH has the exclusive power
over Inter-Slate commerce. no the!
State bus, the. exclusive power to
i oniiT.l Its own dotnesll and internal j
nffalrs. ami It should be permitted to do
no wiiliout O'lesllon. Without the con- 1
sent of the State the t'ongns has not ,

SUHI
And for anv fain led net of oinls-
or commission. I must say it l no-
ing very far for one in.cn or anoinei
fctatw or on high In authority In this
government to condemn and threaten
the extinction 'if her rlKht as a Slate.
I am free to admit, Mr. President, that.
In some matter affecting tli Inter-Htate
commerce whero citizens or corporations
of one State are nn conducting their
buslntwi as to work an Inlury to citizens
of other States, and wliere the other

If Congresa an regulate child tabor
tn our fuctorles am mlnca under the In-ter-Siafe
commcrco clause or any other
clause of the constitution, It ha the
power and can with the game reason
regulate child labor upon the farm, can
regulate the ages at which the boy and
Rlrbi of the furm can oleic from the boll
the fleecy staple which la taken 'to the
gin and then to the factory to be manu
factured Into cloth. It can regulate the
ages at which the farmer1 children shall
work: in the great wheat fialde in the
fltate of the Northweat, for the farmers
have in mind when the wheat la produced
that a greater, portion of it la for Inter
state commerce, and it Is to ba shipped
abroad to other States and foreign coun
tries. The production of wheat and its
manufacture into flour, though Intended
for such. Is not Inter-State commerce.
Neither Is the production of cotton and
Its manufacture Into cloth lnter-8tate
commerce, though Intended for such.
Aa Justice Bradley says, "It la not the
owncr'a or producer's mind which makes
the commodity Inter-State commerce."
The cottpn farmer knowa that more
than nine-tenths of his cotton will be
shipped abroad; he knows that the price
of cotton Is fixed in Liverpool, a foreign
market. While we manufacture about
I.oOO.OOO balea In this country, about 7,
MO.dflO bales are shipped to foreign coun
tries. This does not make the raw ma
terial nor ihe manufactured products
itiilcle of Inter-State commerce. It does
not become so until placed In cars or
beats of the carrier for shipment.
If Congress Is to regulate the cotton
mills, why not let It go Into the regulat
ing business generally? Regulate the
Moor mills, the steel mills, the shoe fac
tories, tha clothing factories, and reg
ulato tho farms; regulate the law in re
gard to health; let It regulate every
branch of Industry which contemplates
an inter-State or foreign market, and
then there will be little left for the State
to do.
I wlah to say. Mr. President. ' that I
nm heartily In favor of resonable child
labor laws. I favor a child-labor law
for the District of Colurrfbla, and. with
some amendments, shall support the bill
for that purpose now pending. 1 have
favored a reasonable child-labor law for
the mines and factories of my own State.
Wo have such & law upon our statute
books passed In J903, a law passed by
the legislature of that State, which had
il.e power and whoso concern It was.
ni'd not by the Congresa, which has not
the power and whose concern It wae
not. Such legislation bV the general
gnvernmnt I am opposed to as being a
step toward centrallxation and an Invas
ion upon the rights of the State. The
President. In his message, rocognlr.es the
fact that the power to control child labor
Is In the Statea and does not belong: to
Cprgrees, for he say In his message to
tills session ot Congress:
"The horrers Incident to the employ
ment of young children In factories or at
work anywhere ure a blot on our clvlll
n.tlon. it Is true that each State must
ultlmntely settle the question In Its own
way, but a thorough official Investiga
tion of ihe matter, with the results pub
lished broadcast, would greatly help to
;.rd iir.iislng the public conscience and
securing unity of State action In the
li, alter."
I am glud to atat. too. Mr. President,
thai our cotton-mill children have the
opportunity afforded them of on educa
tion Many of our factories maintain
the very best schools for from four to
e'Kht months, with tho very beat school
buildings with modern equipment, nnd
employ the lent teachers, all at their own
expense, and every opportunity is given
for the education of tho children.
Whiln there may be much trulh In It.
atid there may be, and perhaps Is, an
evil that should bo corrected In the prop
er way. yet. In my Judgment, there is a
gf-od dial of claptrap In all this cry
about Hie crimes against humanity and
slavery In the cotton mills.
Where the evils exist Ihe States can
and will correct them. I lnisi that In jn Wilkerson vs. Rahrer U4fl IJ. 8.,
this ChrlHilan lurid of ours there Is no s. the Justice, in writing the opinion
lew of higher moral Ideas and humu.nl- . 0f the court, says (p. 664V.-turlunlnm-the

more Chrlstlau-llka plane. I trust, and
where one State has seen Its duly and
U glslated In favor of humanity and cor
rected these evils you may soon expect
tl'.t the Christian and patriotic senti
ment In niher Stales will cause their
Legislatures to act In these matters until
we have the uniformity that is so much
desired.
And again, air. President, the flaw
which will suit one State might not
provo satisfactory to the people of an
other Stale, where conditions are entlre
Iv different, and the regulation should
be 1, fi in each Slate, which knows Its

that l,nt .-, n manufactures and cotn
tneico. A, .iimfju-iure I transformation,
the fashloionif of raw ina'eciul Into a
cbanae of iurni for use. The functions
of commerce are different. The buying
and seiline; nd the transportation ln
cldeniHj tueiHfo constitute corrrmerca, and
the regulation of commerce in the con.
tltutlonul aunse embraces the regulation
at least of autl transportation. The
legal definition ot the term as given by
this court In Ctiunty of Mobile vs. Klm
bnl! (102 U, m if, 702) Is as follows:
'Commerce with foreign countries and
among the Htates, strictly considered,
consists in , intercourse and traffic In
eluding In these term . navigation and
the transportation and transit of per.
son) and property, as well as the pur
chase, sale, and exchange of commodl.
ties.' If it bet held that Im term in.
etudes the regulation of all such manu
facture a aro intended to be the sub.
joct of commercial transactions ' in the
future, It is impossible to deny that it
would also Include all productive Indus
tries that contemplate' the same thing.
Tha result would be that Congress would
be Invested, to the exclusion of the
States, with the power to regulate not
only manufacture, but also agriculture,
ihortlculture, ' stock raising, domestlo
fisheries, mining in short every branch
of human Industry. For is there one of
them that does not contemplate, more
or lees clearly; an inter-State or foreign
market?
e .
"The power 'being vested In Congress
and denied to the States, it would follow
as an Inevitable result that the duty
would devolve on Congress to regulate
all of these delicate, multiform, and vital
Interests, interests which In their nature
are and must be local In sll the details
of their successful management.
. , . i,r t,
"This being ;true, how can It further
that object sos to Interpret the consti
tutional provision ss to place upon Con
gress the obligation to exercise the u
perviaorjr powers Just Indicated? The
demands of sunn a supervision would re
aulre, not uniform legislation generally
applicable throughout the United States,
but a swarm of statutes only locally ap
plicable and utterly inconsistent. Any
movement . toward the establishment of
rules of production in this vast country,
with its many different climates nnd op
portunities, could only be at the sacrifice
of the peculiar advantages of a large
part of the localities In it. If not of ev- i
ery one of them. On the other hand. ;
anv movement toward tha local, detail- !
ed, and incongruous legislation required
by such interpretation would be about
the widest possible departure from, the
declared object of the clause In question.
Nor this alone. Eh-en In the exercise of
the power contended for. Congress would
be confined to the regulation, not of cer
tain branches oi Industry, however num
erous, but to those Instance In each
and every branch where the producer
contemplated an Inter-State market.
These instances would be almost Infinite,
as we have seen; but still there would
always remain the possibility and often
It would be the case that the producer
contemplated a domestic market, in that
case the supervisory power must oo
executed by the State, and tho Intermin
able trouble would be presented that
whether the one power or the other
should exercise the authority In question
would be determined, not by any gen
eml or Intelligible rule, but by the secret
end changeable Intention of the producer
In each and every act of production. A
situation more paralysing to the State
governments and more provocative of
conflicts between the general government
and the States, and less likely to have
ben what the farmers of the constitution
intended. It would be difficult to Imagine.
"The questions tare well answered
In the language of the court In the
license-tax case (5 Wall., tdl'. 470V. 'Over
this commerce and tnde (the Internal
commerce and opmestlo trade ot the
States) Congress has no .power of reg
ulation', nor any direct control. Thla
power belongs exclusively to the States.
No Interference by Congress with the
business of cltlxens transacted within a
State Is warranted by the constitution,
except such as Is strictly Incidental to
the exercise of powers clearly granted
to the legislature. The power to au
thorize a bus! new within a State is plaln-
i ly repugnant to tlie exclusive power of
hi fftat over the same subject.'
