domestic and local affairs, while the radicals
arg stalwafts seem to be the victims Of the

National affairs. W.
Mr.. Doolttle said: "Our true theory ;s
this: All American citizens are citi-
gems OF the United States, owing al
legiance to the United States as a sovereign,
and at the same time they are citizens Of fhe
State where they live, owing allegiance to
that State also. Every American, native or
naturalized, owes allegiance to each and to
noth at the same time, and he is protected By
spheres: To borrow the Language Of the Su-
premc Court OF the United States The powers
OF the General Government and Ut the State,
although they exist aud are exercised within
tle same territorial limits, are yet separate
and independent of each other within their
respective spheres, as if the line of division
traced by landmarks and monuments were
visible TO the eye. Yes, my felloW-titizens,
though it seems almost impossible to make
our Republican feIlow-citizens comprehend
it, yet this most essential thing in our system
IS just what have stated, and what the Su-
preme Court declared it is: Its perfection,
lts glory-namely: that every American has
1llls double citizenship, this double al

from the cradle to the grave, the sovereignty
of the Nation and the sovereignty Of the

right and upon the left.

and In nine times out Of ten we appeal to the
State tor protection. BY 5he: exceptional

and vital to our Well-beinE.s -
lie continued at length saying this
was q subject on which the Republic
all leaders constantly misrepresent the
views Of the Democratic party, and falsely
assert that because we maintain under the
Constitution the reserved right of States,
they falsely charge that we assert the suprenl-
acy OF the States over the Federal and deny
the sovereignty Of the United States in Ma
tional affairs; but hope have been able to
show you how solid are the foundations Of
the Democratic creed.
Mr.. Doolittle then referred to the
HISTORY OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
since the War, and charged against that
party the tranlpling down Of the Constitution
in time of profound peace, wherever its
leaders believed that the Constitution stood
in the way Of their party ascendency. He
referred, among other things. to the Military
Reconstruction bill 0f 1867, upon the passage
Of which Ihad Stevens, then the leader of
the House, frankly admitted they were act
ing outside Of the Constitution, and as frank
y ayowed that the object was to maintain
was an apt scholar. In advocating the same
measure Feb. II, 1867, he said: "1t Is Sc
we're, 1t is written with steel pen made with
u bayonet-"
Mr.. Doollttle maintained that the bill in
itself and these declarations Of Stevens and
Garfield were nothing less than a decIara-
ton Of war against ten States Of the Union
nearly two years after the Civil War was over
