STATES RIGHTS REDIVIVUS.

1t Is refreshing to see the old Demo-
cratic principle Of States Rights being re-
vived. OF late years we have been so
accustomed to having the Federal doc
trine of paternalism in the Government
forced upon us that there has been good
ground for the fear that the people
would become callous regarding their
rights, and would meekly accept an idea
which is inherently fraught with the
greatest danger to the Republic. There
fore 1t was exceedingly gratifying to learn
that Mr.. Amos Cummings, the journalist.
statesman and sterling Democrat of New
York, declared. in discussing the National
Quarantine bill in Congress. "the lines
are drifting now too far from the rights
Of the States, and the time for drifting
has ceased. Hereafter, when a bill ag-
crosses in the slightest degree these
rights, 1 shall be found vigorously OPP
posing It,"
These are noble words, resonant with
the ring Of the Democratic metal. The
lines have indeed drifted too far away
from the old State rights moorings TO be
safe, and it is time that steps be taken
to avoid the rocky reefs of paternalism.
which have been placed within the direct
course of the ship OF State.
Ever since 1860. under the rule Of the
Republican party-the lineal successor
of the old Fedcral-Whig- acknowledging
organzation--we have had the doctrine Of
Capitalization pushed to the utmost
limit possible. Under it we have seen
the general Government assuming to take
charge of the railroads of the country
under the pretoxt Of regulating Interstate
Commerce, when the fathers of the Re
public only inserted the clause in the
Constitution authorizing Congress TO
regulate commerce between the States,
in view Of the fact that some States had
been in the habit of imposing tariff duties
upon the exports of other States. We
have seen the General Government given
control of the elections in the States.
under the fimsy pretext that members Of
Congress were Federal officers, when they
are sent to Congress for the express pur-
pose Of not only looking after the inter-
ests OF their States, but for the local in
terests of the District they represent
We have. In this way, seen strong efforts
made to reduce the States TO the same
relation to the Federal Government that
counties bear to the States. and We have
seen the Capitalization idea attempted
to be carried so far that 1t would be
but one, and that an exceedingly slight
step from the Republic to the Empire.
1t is time. therefore. for the Democrats
In Congress to call halt. The paternal
Idea, If left 10 itself, will soon play havoc
with the simple but strong government
Of the people, by the people, and for the
people. bequeathed us by the fathers of
the Federal Union and trainers of the
Constitution. 1t is the mission of the
Democratic party to keep the States
Rights ball, which Mr.. Cummings has
started, in motion, until paternalism in
the Government has become as obnoxious
to the country as 1t was in the earlier
and better days Of the Republic.

BALANCE OF TRADE SHOULD BRING
US GOLD,

Several parties have challenged The
Times statement in one of its Sundays
editorials, that, according TO the known
condition of things. gold should be COM
ing into this country at this time, instead
Of going out as it is In fact doing. These
gentlemen claim that the balance of trade
is against us, and that the gold which has
been steadily leaving America of late
has gone TO Europe to pay for purchases
that we have made there. But The Times
make ho mistakes in serious and impor-
tant matters of this sort. 1t never makes
such statements until the matters have
been fully investigated and 1t then makes
statements OF the real facts. The Bureau
OF Statistics OF the United States Govern
ment has just issued bulletin that con-
tains the figures relating TO our foreign
commerce for the year ending December

ATelegram Telling of His Death in Mexico.
Sketch of His Life


A telegram was received yesterday an
nouncing the death of Mr.. A. j. Rauh
at some point unnamed in Mexico. Mr..
Rauh had for ten years been well-known
in connection with the Richmond and
Danvile Railroad Company and the
Richmond and West Point Terminal Rail-
way and Warehouse Company. He COM
menced his railroad career in the office
of Colonel T. NJ. r. Talcott, and there
acquired a practical knowledge Of rail-
road management and accounts, which
was of great value. He became success
sively secretary and treasurer OF the
Terminal Company and assistant secre-
tary of the Richmond and Danvlle Rail-
road Company, and such was his knowl
edge OF the intricacies of those great
corporations that he was Indispensable
in any conference which had for rs
purpose an exposition OF their affairs.
He was, therefore, laboriously engaged
last winter in the preparation of the
OlcOtt plan of reorganization, the strain
being such that his health broke down,
and he was obliged TO seek recreation
and recuperation in Asheville, n. c. He
recovered so far as TO return TO New
York and resume his duties, but again
falling health drove him South, and,
with is wife and child. he sought the
climate of Mexico, wher he departed
his active and useful life. Mrs. Rauh
was the widow of the late Darcy +.
Morton.
No other particulars have been re-
ceived. but the interment will probably
be in Norfolk, as Mr.. Rauh's family re-
side there

Mr.. CaDdIish's Successor.

The board of directors of the Young

meeting at the Office OF Mr. John Il. West
last evening at o'clock. The result Of
the meeting was kept perfectly quiet,
like that of the meeting last week The
gentlemen in attendance, who were seen
by a representative Of The Times later
in the evening, declined TO state how many
members were present. 1t is supposed,
however, that no definite action has as
yet been decided upon as to who is to
become the successor Of Mr. Candlish,
and that another meeting will soon be
held TO finally settle the matter.

secretary of the Lynchburg Association.

The Englishman has done more for lib
erty and civilization than all other races Of
men combined. and his most notable char
acteristic is detestation for change. The
busiest thoroughfare Of London remains
TO this day "Cheapside," which means
that retail dealers once boosted that small
wares could be bought there cheaper than
at any other place. The Bank OF Eng
land, the banking centre Of the world, is
on "Threadneedle street." which means
tailors. The Queens favorite residence,
where she erected the finest mausoleum in
the world, 10 hold the remains Of her Re
loved husband. is at Frogmore, so named
because It was once a moor filled with
frogs Yet no Englishman would hear a
suggestion TO change the name OF any
one OF these. 1t is this generation for
old things and the tenacity with which he
clings to them that forms the foundation Of
that character of giants which forces the
Erglishman to the front wherever he goes.
The Times shares in his love for old
things because they ere Old and It hates
to see them abandoned for new ones, how
ever gaudy.

We spend thousands of dollars
yearly in advertlSing-an item that
could be considerably reduced If
we didn't have to convert such OF
the public as turn thither for sup
plies. Whoop la announcements
with little or nothing to back them
have weakened the public conf
dence in advertisement statements,
and it takes columns of the con-
sentative news we present daily to
convince strangers that whatever
of disappointment follows the wake
of the average advertisement,
there's nothing but conservative
statements of actual facts in this
column.
But the store news has another
