The doctrine, tag Co., u south commercial street, f so long a fundamental issue, coloring the political history of the nation since its inception, but fading in importance since the Civil war, is now permanently shelved. - One by one the powers and privileges of the state have been usurped by the federal government as the process of centraliz ation steadily progressed and the ideas of the founders of the re public of a lose confederation of sovereign states, were replaced, by the ideal of a powerful nationalized state. During the early years of the republic, state jealousy and ani mosity interferred seriously with the . establishment of federal authority.

The reaction from federalization elected Jefferson and established what later became the democratic party, advocating state rights. The doctrine of state rights was seized upon by the slave owners of the south to safeguard and perpetuate slavery. The southern statesmen emphasized and exaggerated its importance, and early claimed the right of the state to secede a doctrine that brought emphatic action for preservation of the union from President Jackson. For a generation thereafter, as slavery grew in importance and the agitation for its abolition in intensity, state rights became the issue of the hour and finally precipitated the!on him to grab you if he ever gets Civil war. State rights as a fundamental of the constitution died with slavery. 1 he power of the federal government was rendered supreme and state rights exist only when they do not conflict with the superior rights of the nation. The last two constitutional amendments, suffrage and prohibition, take from the state the power to define its own citizenship and the power to regulate the habits and customs of its inhabitants, as well as its police powers. ine boutn, which so long upheld state rights and shed its heart blood in defense of the doctrine, led the way in the complete abandonment of the theory, the aggrandizement of federal power ana tne Dreakdown ot the state, when it forced the 18th amend ment upon a reluctant people ; and the Negro played as important a role in the repudiation of state rights as he did in the adorition of the doctrine, for it was the desire of the South to keep liquor irom demoralizing the JNegro that made national prohibition a possibility, c HPS""? 0y HOLDING-UP MEXICO. One of the most astounding documents of the recent session of congress ia the report of the senate sub-committee investigat ing Mexican affairs presented during the closing days of the ses sion which recommends armed intervention in Mexico to force changes in the Mexican constitution satisfactory to American in vestors. Full recognition of a Mexican government and financial assistance is to be withheld until such changes are made and a inenuiy government assured. It is demanded that exceptance be made in numerous articles bf the Mexican constitution in favor of Americans and American investments and that they be accorded preferential treatment In case of the failure of Mexico to comply with these demands, naval and military forces of the United States are to be sent into Mexico "to open and maintain open every line of communication between the City of Mexico and every border Dort of Mexico." bnould the Mexican authorities comply with demands, com- miuee recommends that the United States finance the Mexican government, refund its indebtedness, and build up its army and institutions. In other words, if Mexicans turn their country over to American exploiters. mak laws tn fan utata i nmir,;fo;,o select a president approved bv them. Uncle Ram will ns and if they refuse, war will be waged on Mexico, and American Diooa ana treasure be expended without stint to grab her wealth. . If any nation made such insolent demands on the United states it would be deemed cause for. If Mexico was a now. erful nation, such interference would not be thoutrht of.

"Good evening!" he cried. "I was just passing on my way home; and hearing the singing, I thought I'd stop and enjoy it." For a few moments none of the Frog family said a word. And then Ferdinand Frog spoke up and asked Mr. Turtle a question: "Have you had your dinner?" "No, I haven't," Timothy answered. "But you needn't trouble yourselves on my account. Go' on with yourvsinging. And if I feel faint no doubt I can find a bite to eat hereabouts." Now, Mr. Turtle hoped that his speech would put the singers quite at their ease. But they looked at one ano ther and rolled their eyes as if to say, "This Timothy Turtle is a danger ous person. Look but for him!" At the same time they did not wish to appear frightened. And Ferainand Frog's mother's uncle even made a short speech, saying that he hoped jlr. WEDNESDAY, 0 Turtle th. : - ' ! r. ." ""jested j nsers followed S t L . too. d.d Mr1"1" few momenta.

The following remarkable endorse ment of TuiiIhc was given recently by Mrs. Alice Oreshnm Uodd, at the Oreshnm Memorial hume, Oavln Tark, Evansvllle, Ind., which home was presented to her by the patriotic people of Indiana, as evidence of their appreciation of the services rendered to hi country by her son. Corporal James B. Oresham, the first Ameri can soldier killed in France. Expres lons of sympathy were received by Mrs. Rodd from all parts of the Unit ed States, and the newspapers of the country carried the story of the first 'war mother." The shock of her hod's death re sulted In the serious breakdown of Mrs. Dodd'g health, but everyone will learn with interest and pleasure that Khe is now in enlendld health again. When seen at her home recently she made the following statement, giving the entire credit for her recovery to the well known medicine, Tanlao. "After my dear boy's death, I had & general IncnliiluWJi la health," said. Mrs. Dodd. "At first it was Just indi gestion. My food uaed to uuaet me and I had to diet nivself verv care-! fully, which wasn't much hardship ns I lost atl desire to eat.

Onlv nhnnf 300 pledged delegates were thereby secured an average cost of $10,000 a delegate. And the worst of it is that such shameless acts do not arouse even a protest in the convention, but are accept eJ as a matter of course. A year ago, when Bryan was in Oregon, he predicted the luiminauoiv oi governor sproiu ot I'ennsylvania for president by the republicans. Sproul is the choice of Penrose, boss of the Old Guard, whom Roosevelt said ought to be in the penitentiary and who, from his sick bed still pulls the strings to make the party dance. It will be interesting to see how much of a prophet Bryan im, iur oproui is now ruling lavonte among the "dark horses." Instead of unseating Wallace McCamant, the Oregon dele- Kate wno reiuses to carry out the mandate of the people, the na tional republican convention honored him by placing him on the platform committee thereby insuring a platform as progressive s juininant is ana as responsive to popular desires.

"l'leaso," 1 said, "don't let us begin to quam-l beofie we arrive at the house," "1 don't want to quarrel with you, Knthcrino," was his impatient answer, "but you seem to always rub me the wrong way."

"A woman tn my condition is not supposed to be a thing pf beauty," I answered. "Well, you needn't be so hurt about it, especially as your ugliness is not permanent," he said in a tone of voice w men mane me reaiwe that lie was a I litrlo bit ashamed ot lilnwplf.

"No," he answered, "because I should have left you quite alone. I never could stand girl that didn't have a good complexion ,and you must realize that Just at present you are not very easy to look at." "When are you returning to the city?" "Why, I Just got here! In your letter you were very anxious to have me come this way and now you are asking me when I shaU leave. Aren't you ra ther capricious?" , Not at all. I have tried to tell you of it under the circumstances. Charles has said nothing of the kind to me. Would Be Half-Conscious He had not allowed me to feel un comfortable in his presence, and now, after what John had said, I would, be very selfconscious when I met Charles again a feeling I had never had De fore with Charles. I was very sorry that this incident had happened, for besides the un happiness It had made for me per sonally, I realized that I should be quite dependent upon Charles during the next month or two after John bad gone away. "Perhaps," I said to myself, "I should not see Charles any more until after the baby comes." Then I thought, "How silly." It seemed . to me that one of the things the modern many times, John, that when you are 'woman was getting beyond was the away from me I always think of you as you were in the wonderland three weeks before our marriage, and think the surprised finding you al ways so utterly different now ls one of the things that maWes me seem an noyed and capricious with you." "I really never could understand," said John, as we went up to our room, "why it ls that a woman always wants to be flattered. The more I see of them the more it seems to me that a woman would rather you would He to her, if you He prettily, than to have you tell her the truth if it ruffles her vanity. For The Good ot the Soul. "I don't think that's true, John," I said. "Most women do like to be torn that they are charming by the men they care for. And I do not believe that most people call truth need be as unpleasant as it usually is, but I dp think that we women do need some thing for the good ot our souls. . Just a little while ago you asked me why I didn't go to a beauty parlor and have my complexion improved. Did It ever occur to you that we have all these things done for our bodies, but when we ask for something which will make our souls beautiful (be cause when a woman is happy her soul Js beautiful) most people con sider that we are begging for sop to our vanity." "All right. Let's don't talk about it any more. Dt you realize that I'm awfully tired. I've been two nights on a train. I think I'll go and take a bath and after that a little snooze. Then we'll talk business." John left me unceremoniously and I heard him whistling as he turned the water on in the bathroom and I knew he had forgotten everything that he had been talking about that was die agreeable to him in any way. I went to the mirror and looked fact that there was anything disgrace ful in motherhood. However, now my own husband had called attention to the fact that I must be more or less a target for speculative thought. I never would feel the same about it again. Tomorrow "Are Men Gullible?
