London Club Life.

Some amusing remarks on clubs were
made by Mr.. Plowden, the widely known
London magistrate. at a lecture to the
Victoria Mems Club at Richmond, says
the London Chronicle.
He belonged to two clubs he said, and
they were Numerically opposite in char
acter. One was very famous club, with
great traditions: but it was a terribly
dull place. There was none Of that How
are you, old fell =? Whatll you have?"
Many of the members never remove their
hats even, and when they were in the
rooms scowled at any later arrival as
much as to say, "E1ow did you get in?
1t must have been by some awful f1uke."
One member had wittily said of it: "It
is not a club at all. 1t is like the coun-
try house Of a Duke, with the duke lying
dead upstairs That was the club to
which he went when he felt particularly
sulky or disagreeable
When he felt lively and was enjoying
life he went to the other club, where they
all sat down to dinner at the same table
and afterward adjourned to the billiard
room and smoked. Every one talked to
his neighbor, and almost invariably
found he had something interesting to

State Rights Subordinate
to Federal Constitution
mo Lam Necessary and Proper to Establish
Justice or Promote General Welfare Is
Beyond Power of Congress-"

To the Editor: Our national organic
act provides for, as 1t commands. the
most comprehensive, beneicent. and per-
feet system of laws and government hui
man wisdom could devise.
Nothing added or omitted could i'm
prove 1t.
Nothing OF good government is with
out its powers; naught Of evil within.
And yet save Holy Writ. nothing has
been SO woefully misinterpreted. n1isap-
piled, an& disregarded.
The citizen is the basis and beneficiary
or all sovereignty: the citizenship Of the
nation its sole depositary-the guardian
and dispenser of all its powers.
Neither STATE nor nation is sovereign.
Each may exercise but such powers as
are. assigned it by sovereign authority as
voiced in the Constitution.
To Congress is given exclusive author
ity to make all laws necessary and
proper to carry into execution all powers
vested by this Constitution in the govern
ment Of the United States or in any de-
paHtment or officer thereof"
There Is supreme and overmastering
significance in this provision.
The government Of the United States
must necessarily be national 1t en-
braces all the States and people thereof
Its general and supreme powers are
s9pmarized in the preamble:
IN order to form more perfect union,
establish justice, and promote the gen
erai welfare, We, the people Of the United
States, do ordain and establish this Con-
stitution for the United States of Amer
lea"
To establish justice necessitates the en-
actment and enforcement of all laws
necessary and proper for the government
and protection of the people.
The revenues Of the nation are devoted:
To pay the debts and provide for the
common defense ana general welfare of
the United States"
No Law Beyond Congress.

welfare Is beyond the powers of Con-
gress; none in contravention within.
And it Is finally ordained, and with
supreme wisdom and foresight:
This Constitution and the laws Of the
United States made in pursuance there
OF shall be the supreme law Of the land,
and the Judges in every State shall be
bound thereby, anything in. the Consti-
tuition or laws of any State to the con-
trary notwithstanding"
There are no terms in the English Ian
guage which could more clearly or forci-
bly, express the sovereign mandate
That the Constitution and laws Of the
United States made In pursuance there
OF should not alone abrogate, but SUPER
sede, all provisions Of State constitu-
tons and laws in contravention, and that
the judiciary in every State must admin
lister and enforce such laws of the United
States as the supreme law of the land
The law of the land has ever been
known as that body of general laws Of
uniform operation under which the peo-
pie of nation are governed.
This precludes the legal possibility of
coordinate or concurrent State legisia-
ton.
Indeed. the only law Ahe States were
ever authorized to enact affecting the ma
ton was to provide for the election in
17Ss of the members of our nrst Con-
gress, which was expressly designed to
supersede the States in all their then
general powers of legislation.
Though the laws of the then States
were to remain in force until Congress
should enact laws to supersede them, yet
no power was reserved to them to en-
act any laws within the exclusive Iegis-
lative powers of Congress.
All such laws enacted by the States
since 17s9 were and are absolutely void
as wholly unwarranted
The imperative mandate that the laws
OF the United States made in pursuance
to the Constitution should alone consti-
tute the law of the land cannot be dis
regarded by any State.
With full, supreme, and exclusive power

The Next Worse Life.

From the Seneca tNo) Dispatch.
The preacher has hard time. If his
hair is gray, he is old. II he Is young
man, he hasn't had experience. II he
has ten children, he has too many. If
he has none, he should have, and isn't
setting a good example. If his wife
sings in the choir, she is presuming. II
she don't she isn't interested in her
husbands work. II a preacher reads
from notes, he is bore. II he speaks
he isn't deep enough.
If he stays at home IN his study. he
doesn't mix enough with the people. II
he is seen around on the streets, he
ought to be at home getting up a good
sermon If he calls on some very poor
family. he is playing to the grand
stand. If he calls at the home of the
rich, he is an aristocrat. Whatever he
does, someone could have told him how
to do better. He has q fine time living
off donations, which never come In, and
promises that never mature. Next to
being an editor, it is an awful life.
