' xnen, too, me seat f government would be so far from the great-majority 01 uie voters as 10 pre vent that scrutiny of publlo conduct which la essential to clean and honest government. The union of the separate states under a .federal government of fers the only plan that .can, adapt itself to indefinite extension. ; The Corporations' Preference. ' Our constitution- expressly reserves to the states and to the people respectlve Iv nil powers not delegated to the fed ' eral government; end only by respect Ing this division of powers can we Tiope to keep the government within the reach of the people and responsive to the will of the people. Because in all disputes as to the relative spheres of the nation and the states the final deolsion rests with the federal courts, the tendency Is naturally toward centralixation, and greater care Is required to preserve the reserved . rights of the states ' than to maintain the authority pf the general government. . " In recent years another force has been exerting an increasing influence in ex tending the authority of the central government I refer to the great Cor porations. They prefer the federal courts to the state courts, and employ every, possible device to drag litigants before United States Judges. They also prefer congressional regulation to state regulation, and those Interested in large corporations have ror years been seeking federal incorporation. J fie Democratic party will resist every at tempt to obliterate state lines, whether the attemnt Is made through legisla tion or through judicial Interpretation. Amendment of the. organic law by Ju dicial interpretation would be destruct ive of constitutional government: our constitution can be amended by the people In accordance with the terms of the document itself, and no group of men, however honorable or high minded. can usurp this cower wunout viotauni the fundamental principles of our gov A XMaffaroas Dootrtn. It has been suggested that the rights of the states can lapse through non-use. nnd that congress is Justified In usurp ing the authority of the state If the state falls to make Wooer use ef it, While this doctrine has been advanced In the pretended Interest of the people, It Is as insidious and as dangerous an assault as has ever been made on our constitutional form of government. The people of the state can act with more firomptness tnan tne people or tne na lon, and If they fall to act. it must be assumed that the people of the -state prefer inaction. v The real purpose that those have In view who complain of the inaction of the state. Is not more strict regulation or corporations, but the relief or cor porations from state regulation. , Addition vs. Substitution. The Democratic party favors the full exercise of-the powers of the govern ment ior tne protection or the rights of the people each government to act within its constitutional sphere. Our platform demands that federal legisla tion be added to. not substituted' for. state legislation. The predatory corporations have taken advantage of the dual character or our government and have tried to hide behind state rights when . Drose- cuted in the federal courts and behind tne interstate commerce clause of the constitution when prosecuted in the state courts. There is no twilight zone between th nation and the state in which the ex ploiting interests can take refuge from both. ' There Is no neutral ground Vhere, beyond the Jurisdiction of either "sover eignty, the plunderers of the publio can find a safe retreat As long as a' cor poration confines its activities to the state in which it was created, it is sub ject to state regulation only; 'but as soon as it . Invades Interstate commerce it becomes amenable to rederal laws as well as to the laws of the, state which created it and the laws of the states in which it does business. How atriot can these laws. beT lust as strict as may. be necessary for the protection or the public. Our' platform outlines the regulation deemed necessary, and the regulation is ipponents mav not be able to scare the public by predicting hurtful legislation.

E Hetcher when Castoria fa called for; the "delicate, feint and flickering light " that joins bahy's life to its devoted parents being, too sacred, , to the self-respecting druggist, to be trifled witi. For over thirty years Mr. Eetcher has given, and still gives, his personal attention to the preparation of Castoria. It has won the confidence of mothers and physicians everywherernever harmed the tiniest babe. This cannot be said of Imitations, Counterfeits and the "Just-as-good" rot. ; The thoughtless druggist only offers the counterfeit because of a few pennies more profit Any new preparation can be but an experiment, and they are experi ments mere guess work--irrespective of what their sponsors may say for them. It is experience of over thirty yearsj'against.wild and injudicious experiment. Letters from Prominent Druggists addressed to Chas. H.

A distinction is drawn between the railroads and other corporations. The railroad, being a ouast-public corpora tion and, as such, being permitted to exercise a part of the sovereignty of the state, is subiect to regulation at the hands of both the nation and the state, but $his regulation Is intended, not to cripple the railroads but to lnorease their efflclencv. The people at large are as much Interested as the stockholders are in the miccessfiil operation of the railroads. Their" own pecuniary inter ests as well as their sense of Justice would restrain them from doing anything- that would imr-alr the road or re duce its efficiency. The traveling pub lic is vitally interested in the payment of wages sufficient to command the most Intelligent service, for life as wei; as property is In the hands of those who operate the trains, guard the switches and keep the track In repair. The Democratic party would distin guish between thoso railroad owners, directors and managers who, recogniz ing tneir obligation to tne puouq, earn thttir salaries by conscientious devotion to the work entrusted to them, and thoso unscrupulous "Napoleons of Fi nance" who' use railroads as mere pawns In a great gambling game with out regard to tne rights or employes or to ihe Interests of the patrons. It is In the Interest of honest railroading and legitimate investment that the Demo cratic party seeks to ascertain the pres ent value of the railroad properties and. to prevent for the future the watering of stock and the Issue of fictitious capi talization; and it is in the interest of both the railroads and the public that It seeks only such reductions ln. trnni? portation rates as can be made without wage reduction, without deterioration In the service and without injustice ' to legitimate investments. The Democratic 3arty Insists that in the matter or regu atlon of railroads both the stale gov ernments and the federal government shall net up to, and yet within, their powers: for nothlnz elne will restore the confidence and good will that ought to exist between the railroads and the people.
