after all tins had been done, there would
still remain question IN the background
face some day or other. The extreme
length to which State tights theories were
pushed IN 1861 and 1861, brought about
reaction and that reaction has led many
people to think that State Rights belong to
| the dead and gone class of questions, and
| that any man who talks about State Rights
is sufficiently answered when he is called
"Bonrbon." IL is unnecessary to say to
| any intelligent reader that this view is n
miselably shallow one, and that in reality
| the right of States 10 govern themselves is
~ dear to the PEOPLE as ever it was And
