SiAXE EIGHTS AGAIN BEING
OVERvt ORKED |
btate right* is being somewhat over
worM- again. This time Governor
iULchie, of Maryland, comes before the
i.uiKiican people as a Democratic can
didal* lor the presidency of the Unit
ed States, with the popular plank—
' States Rights."
It looks more like a certain big in
uuence trying to break up the law
and tread it down than a real desire
bt promote the old time State rights
»uen we as a nation did not have
luings in common as we do now. That
Mas a day when we lived more as
mt>«s or neighborhoods, and about the
uiuy use one State or aection had for
another was to assist in fighting In
.. yn« 0 r to put down foreign inva
fita.
We bad no railroad, no telegraph,
no telephone, no power lines, and on
ly occasionally a postage stamp.
Now we >know no State lines. A
man may croes several State* daily
in attending to his ordinary business
attain. The interchange and inter
locking of both business and social
relations of the people of this coun
trj ha* become to be one thing in
common to every State alike. Every
public service, as well as every public
utility is held and operated as inter
state institutions.
The whole trend of our civilization
*-r
is to Iroaden and enlarge the family
ui men rather than to narrow down
to the point »f selfishness and little-
BMS.
We can see nothing in the
00.l v irginia with liquor or New Jer
sey witfh Delaware away with beer.
uoven.or Ritchie will evidently flnd (
beiore he receives the honor of a
Democratic presidential no nination
that the old cry of personal liberty
and do as you please has been modi
fied in the minds of the people and
that the ,'otks are now willing to sac
rifice Kflftf>bn«aa if it helps others to
do so.
