THOSE PRESERVED RIGHTS"

Our always esteemed contemporary,
the Miami Herald, assumes that the
Ocala Banner has no conception CT
the words: Reserved rights" as ap-
piled to the states under the United
States constitution.
Qnoting from Mr. Lodge, in his
copfous History of the United States,
and we know that the Herald has pro
illusions.
The Senator says:
The constitution has marked out a
sphere for the United States and the
states and that each is supreme with
in that sphere.
We quote:
THUS each individual is subject to
two allegiancies and while the federal
constitution and laws are declared to
be the supreme law of the land, it
must not be understood that the sup
remacy of national law affects the
action of the states in the sphere re-
served to them. They are subordinate
only in the extent of their jurisdic-
ton. Their powers seem insignificant
as compared with those of the United
States merely because the latter are
enumerated They include, as mat
ter of fact, the whole domain of civil
and religious liberty, education, stuff
rage, marriage, divorce, domestic re-
lations, contracts, business, property.
trade, and for the most part, the adj
ministration of the criminal law. The
powers are impossible of enumera-
ton to detail them would be to cata-
logue all social and business relation
ships, to examine all the foundations
of law and order"
1t seems to us the very height of
folly to suppose that any body of peo-
pie, however gifted, could frame a
constitution for the government Of a
people to last throughout the ages
AS long as the world lasts new con
ditions will introduce themselves upon
the public conscience and new con
ditions will always impose new duties.
So our laws must be flexible and
elastic-not like the laws of the
Modes and Persians,- impossible of
alteration or amendment
Speaking to his modification reso-
lutions," Mr.. Calhoun is quoted by
Mr.. Benton as saying:
In estimating the operation of this
principle in our system, which de-
ponds on the right Of interpositiOn
on the part of the state. we must not
omit to take into consideration the
amending. by which new powers may
be granted, or any arrangement of
the system be corrected by the con-
curing assent OF three-fOurths OF the
states
That ought to be conclusive.

THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN
LOOSE TALK

AS long ago as 1883 in one of his
speeches delivered in the United
States senate, Daniel Webster said:
There are persons who constantly
clamor They complain of oppression,
speculation, and the pernicious influ-
ence of accumulated wealth: they cry
aloud against all banks and corpora
tons, and all means by which small
capitalists berome united in order to
protect important and BENEFICIAL re
suits.
"They carry on mad hostility against
all established institutions. They
would choke the foundations of in
dustry and dry streams. In a land
Of unbOunded liberty they clamor
against oppression. In a land of per
feet equality they would move heaven
and earth against privilege and
monopoly. In a land in which prop
erty is more evenly divided than any
where else, they rend the aid shout
ing about agrarian doctrines. and ia
country in which the wages of labor
are beyond parallel, they would teach
the laborer he is but an oppressed
slave"

State Institutions
Need More Funds

More than nine thousand students
attended the regular sessions of Colo
RADIOS institutions of higher learn
ing last year, according to statistics
made public today by the State Edu-
cational Publicity Bureau. This is
and increase of nearly Al per cent
over the year 1861 when 6,255
were enrolled. The period OF COM
parison extends over four yearo 30 as
tc show normal increase rather than
those affected by the war.
The Colorado school of mines ranks
fist in growth with an increase of ap-
proximately 100 per cent, and the
University of Colorado is next with n
glin of more than S3 per cent. The
Colorado Agricultural College shows
growth of SO per cent. The Colo
radoo State Normal school and tho
Colorado State Teachers college show
Increases of 14.65 per cent and 9 per
cent, respectively. The small growth
of these last two institutions 10 at
tributed to the unattractive salaries
offered in the teaching profession.
This condition, it is raid, is noted in
reports from number of ether
states.
Many students were turned away
1T the opening of the University last
year on account of the lack of
space. In other schools the floor
space and number OF instructors have
not been increased to take care of
the growing enrollments. Class
rooms have been over crowded
equipment lacking and the inGtruc-
ton of students otherwise hampered.
To provide these increasing demends
for more teachers, classroom9 and
laboratory supplies costs money.
In order to save the colleges from
financial disaster, educational auth
critics and other interested citizens
of the state have initiated an amend
ment to the constitution enabling the
Legislature to provide sufficient funds
fer the maintenance of higher edu-
cational Institutions. This amend
ment will appear on the bollot at the
general election November 2.
