government. The union of the separate

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

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

public by predicting hurtful legislation.
A thoughtless Druggist
QNLY a, thongMess druggist would offer a preparation without, the signature

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.

Beal Xailroaders, and . Gamblers.
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.
