a different opinion. and to pass a
law making the particular prohibi-
ton llon which they have set their
hearts more clear and empathie. A bill
will approve. The trouble IS, that the
Democrats are not contentei with such bill
Giving ont that they are bent only upon
preventing military interference with elec-
ton. their bill does much more than thai:
While the bill disarms the nation, it equips
and strengthens the States While it for
bids the national authority to use the nation.
al forces 10 execute the national laws, it
permits the States to call tor the same forces
to sustain them. In effect II forblds the
President to execute the laws Of the nation
at certain times and places except upon the
cali and by the permission of State Cover
nors and Legislatures. As the President
aptly says, what Is this but the substitG
ton of the discretion OF the State govern
ments for the discretion of the Government
OF the nitci States as to the performance
Of its own duties ." Ii is the erection of
Stale supremacy over national authority,
and the re establishment of the hercsy Of
State sovereignty which WIS the mother OF
notification and secession. II the DemOc-
racy wish to take this issue 10 the country,
let them do so
