State Modification

But passing from the 'unalterable'
objection to the Federal amendment,
we come to something even more
startling, viz, the sentence in which
they declare. not only for the speedy
repeal, although that is bad enough,
but to the statement that until such
time as this repeal may be brought
about they declare the right OF the
state of New York, in the exercise
of its sovereign power, to so construe
the concurrent clause OF the Eight
zenith Amendment as to be in accord
with the liberal and reasonable views
of our people
"The right OF state to nullify the
Federal Constitution was settled in
the negative nearly 90 years ago, and
the case will not be reopened merely
to please men with an appetite or
men who want to re-entcr a crime
creating business. And this in the
name of personal liberty!
"If state can repudiate the Federal
Constitution and one Federal statute
by construction palpably false, why
can it not rcpudiatc all national au-
thority?
"The Democratic party has nobler
mission than to become intoxicated
with feeling and lie down in the
grave with this monstrous evil, mans
greatest enemy, the saloon"

Bryan Warns Party
Against Wet Plank
Declares People Will Not Support
Notification Program

In a copyright article printed by
the Chicago Herald and Examiner.
William Jennings Bryan discusses the
attitude OF the Democratic party on
the liquor question with particular
reference to the platform OF the party
adopted by the New York state con-
vention. 4 sentence i'll the platform
reads: I'VE feel that the recent en-
actmcnt was the imposition OF the
ideas OF Al active minority against the
wishes OF the great majority of the
American people"
Referring to this sentence, Mr..
Bryan says:
Tho second sentence quoted from
the platform would be amusing ii I
did not deal with serious subject
Those who wrote the platform icei
that the Prohibition amendment was
imposed by an active minority
against the wishes OF the great ma
jorty OF the American people
"Thirty-four states had gone dry
previously by state aotion-nearly all
OF them by popular vote. Those that
went dry by statute have since elected
Legislatures pledged to continue the
policy oil Prohibition. In the states
that ratified the majority was in many
instances ovfrWh e10inp
What shall we say OF Democratic
leaders vino allow their feelings to
overcome their respect for the facts
of history? No open influence can
account for this strange feeling;
what secret Influences is back OF ii?
Feeling Due to Thirst
1T would. OF course, be a reflection
upon the heads and the hearts OF the
men responsible for the New York
platform to say that their opposition
is matter of principle. There are
no such isolated principles.
Nothing but feeling can explain
the attitud. OF these unalterable oppo-
nents OF Prohibition, and they do well
to use the word feeling instead of
conscience or intellect
III the feeling is due to thirst, it is
a disease that needs a remedy; it it is
due to coercion brought to bear upon
them by the representatives OF re-
vcngcfu1 and outlawed liquor traffic,
il is disgrace. But whether the feel
ing that is so feelingly expressed is
a disease or a disgrace, it is an insult
to the Democratic party and to the
nation.
