DURING tfre-discussi0n of the pro-
posed National Prohibition Amend
ment, Hon. JEFF. McLem ore Of Texas
presented a letter from q former
Senator from his State, from which !
take the following excerpt:
II there has been one article OF our
creed to which We have adhered more
steadtastly than to all others since
Thomas Jefferson first founded our
party, it has been the doctrine OF
State rights, and if there was ever a
time when a strict adherence to that
doctrine was more necessary than al
all other times, it is now, when the
General Government has already en-
croached upon the States to an eX-
tent which must alarm every thought
ful Democrat. With the Federal De-
partment Of Justice prosecuting our
citizens for conspiracy against the
United States, as in the Nueces
County case, when there was not the
shadow of an excuse for that prosecu'
ton; with the Supreme Court OF the
United States practically nuilliyinS
the power of the States to regulate
commerce wholly within them, as it
did in the Shreveport rate case; with
Congress usurping control over chill
dren in the States, as 1t did III the
child labor law; and remembering
that these are but examples OF n
steady, persistent, and numerous en-
croachments, it would seem that
Democratic Congressman would un-
derstand the necessity OF opposing
the further extension of Federal pow.
er. The men who have been more
| potential in forcing this amendment
through Congress perfectly nder-
stand that Federal prohibition is ut
terly inconsistent with the democratic
theory Of State rights, aud they bold
" repudiated that theory. Ex-Gov.
| Patterson, who. though a recent con-
vert to prohibition, is now II OF its
a5lest advocates, has given out witt
in the last three days an interview
which goes far beyond anything which
| Alexander Hamilton ever ventured 10
say in favor OF ~centralizlng all power
in the General Government. The eX-
governor of Tennessee, unlike some
Of whose who follow his lead, does
not hesitate to follow his own
logic, and this is in part what he said:
awhile | am a southern man. am IN
favor OF greater unity in this country
the building npiof a Nation with na-
sional spirit and policies. | haven't
any patience with those persons who
are constantly shouting about State
rights. II one wants something, he il
for State rights; if he doesn't wan
anything, he is against State rights,
W hat We want is a more united Ma
ton. with State lines eliminated ex
cept for a few purposes
The enc thing, above all Others
that made me a Democrat was the ad
herence of the party to the principle
of government laid down by the faith
ers who formulated and established
our glorious Republic. If those prin
ciples are cast aside by the act of mel
posing as Democrats and entruste,
with power, they will fnd that til
body of their constituents is held to
, gether by Il rope Of sand. For myself
if the Jeffersonian doctrine is repudi
ated, ! am cast out with it. That mat
tiers not much to the world, but
concerns me not q little.
