Governed to Death.
(New York World. )

Protesting a few days ago against the growth of bureaucracy and the extension of Federal authority the lives of American citizens Senator Stanley Of Kentucky said
 Every business finds inspector at
 his elbow, Federal seuth at his heels.
 Houses searched bones outraged and
 the public highways dappled in the blood of
 unofending citizens by multitude of agents
 and inspectors ignorant of and indifferent
 to the law of the land and the rights of
 citizens.
 Lest anybody think that Senator Stanley, who is Democrat, has allowed his Jefersonian the ores of government warp his judgment, it is worth while to turn to the deliberately expressed opinions of Dr. Nicholas Butler, who is not only Republican but who is identified with the servative wing of his party.
 In report to the trustees of Columbia Univer sfty expressing his objections to the proposed Federal bureau for the supervision of education, Dr. Butler used language less vehement than that employed by the Senator from Kentucky:
 In the United States are, in flat def-
 ance of all proclaimed principles, build
 ing series of bureaucracies that will put
 shame the best efforts of the Government
 of the Czar of all the Russia when in the
 heyday of it's glory. We surrounded by
 agents special agents, inspectors and spies,
 and the people called upon to support.
 through their taxes, in harmful and
 American activities whole armies of individ-
 uals who should be engaged in productive
 industry.
 Senator Stanley has described in this fashion the tendency of the 5000 bills already introduced fin the present Congress:
 Nobody escapes Everything in the moral,
 
 owned operated supervised censored
 from the birth of baby to the burial of a
 corpse, and the worst is not yet.
 The passion for bureaucracy and Government regulation which began under Roosevelt has now lost all Of restraint. Outside Bolshevist Russia the American people the government ridden people in the world, and every session Con- sress, session of State Legislature marks an extension of the system.
 Among the indictments against George H. in the Declaration of Independence this "He has erected a multitude of offices and sent hither swarms of officers to harass people and e2t out their substance. If George III. could see the armies of officers that the American people under their Government, have allowed to be imposed on them, to harass them and eat out their substance, he would be astonished his own mod eraon. What the fathers refused endure the sons bmit to as meekly flock of sheep.
 The American people are in process of being gov med to death well taxed to death in order to pport the armies of ofce-holders who have under 4ken to regulate them from the cradle grave. r hat makes bad matter immeasurably worse they eem to have lost all their capacity for resistance Q he overwhelming rule of bureaucracy.
