Pike County Democrat, Volume 18, Number 22, Petersburg, Pike County, 20 October 1887 — Page 3

Boo. John 6. Carlisle, Speaker of tha House of Representative* for two terms, contributes an able article on the “Continuance of Democratic Rule" t© a recent issue of the Forum, from which we quote as follows: »l undertaking to state some of the reasons why tbs Democratic party should be continued la power, ft la aeceasary. is the ant instance, to caU attention to the difference of opinion between the two exlsuag parties concerning the naton and extent of the Federal power under' fbe oonstttutkm. because it it manifest that their administration of public affairs mast be greatly influenced by their respective views apao this fandamenlal question. This diflereaceef opinion has misted continuously since the argsatastlon or the Government, und has always constituted, aa it still does, the most 0>i *rfl denned line of separation between political parties in this country. It would have been reasonable to suppose that after hourly a

/pqtwumueu ycau oi practical aaminis-raiicn Hi tCum Gorrrnment under tbe constitution, utter ? ^repealed decisions of the qaestios by the highest judicial tribunals. und utter the thorough and able discussions that bare taken place at ererr U*ge at ths controversy, the relations between the eereral States and their people and the Government of the Vented States would be well understood, and their separate rights sad powers tally recognized by sll parties. Such, however, it not the ease. In thaory and practice tbe Kepobticaa party of today Is more extravagant in its assertion of what it calls “National authora tty” than its Fedormllsi progenitor was s * century ego. During the short period between tbe close of the wsr and tbe year ltrri, while it controlled tbe legialation in Congress it passed sgfpater number of uncoustitutionsl enactments than can be found in all the remainder of our legislative history. But it %ras not in Congress alone that this dangerous tendency toward tbe concentration and arbitrary ejrr else of power waa exhibited. Tbe Executive Department, in all Its branches, was equally indifferent (o the limitations Imposed upon It , by tbe constitution and laws, and the President wee rapidly becoming went Patrick Hen f— ty predicted he would be. ■*nu American King." Bo arrogant and intolerant was thts spirit of enaronahmeet anon the raae—cd .'ignis of tbe States' aad peqgftr, that tbe conservative elements in the country spontaneously combined to resist n, aad the consequence wss that stare the fourth day of March. HO. but one Republican House of Representatives has met ht Washington. and in 187* a large majority of the popdlar rote wea cast for tbe Democrats candidates for President and Vice-President. It Is. perhaps, net going too far to sey that if the Republican party had hot been deprived of power in the popular branch of the Legislative department, and It the warning of liTe had not been given by the people, our federative system of government would hare been by this time subslant ally overthrown, and the right of local self-govern-ment. which lies at thefrery foundation of our free tastttutlous. would have been confined to tfie narrowest possible limits. It in apdndlsputable historical fact that the constitution of the United States was adopted and the Onion formed under it by the people of the several States, each political community acting separately and independently of ell others,.through its own State organisation.. It is equally undeniable that the Govern mem ■ v thus created by the people of tbe several Htatea was one of defined and limited powers, end tbad all powers not delegated to it, nor pro- ® tfUNtndjto the States, were, 111 tbe language of the constitution naelf. "reserved 10 tbe Slates, respectively, or to tbe people." This brief 1 statement comprehend* the whole Democratic theory of constitutional government In this country, and It must be avtdrnt to every one who seriously reflects upon tbe subject that it Is tbe only theory upon which the orderly aad harmonious exercise of State and Federal authority over the same territory and people can be permanently maintained. Coefllets of authority necessarily produce dissension wl strife, sod It is therefore essential to tbe repose of the country that the division of power between the State and '* Pederal governments shall be scrupulously observed by the party in control of the Administration. The Importance of such a policy waa never greater or more apparent than now. After a long period of uncertain tv sad unrest the whole country has finally adjusted itself to the aew conditions imposed by the war. aad all that appears to be seeded to insure an era of great industrial and commercial prosperity la a continued assurance that political and secltonal controversies wdl not be permitted to disturb the pursuits of the people. The present Democratic Administration. Instead of depressing business and arresting the development of our sources as was predicted, bss inspired a feeling of confidence and secur

The situation imperatively demands the careful revision and strict enforcement of the laws relating to the disposition of the pubftc domain. so that epeuulaltoa aad fraad may be prevented or punished, and rheap hCmes and good titles guaranteed to tbs honest settler, the reclamation of lands illegally occupied or claimed by .Individuals and sorporanons. foreign and domestic: and just and apeedy settlement of ail matter* In dispute between the Government and the subsidised railroad companies, the en- 1 actme t and rigid enforcement of lawa to oom- , pel co.

In order 1 that all the substantial rights of these depend- | ent people may be amply protected without I unnecessarily retarding the development of our new Slates aad Territories. Much ha* already been done during the pres- ! ent Administration to reclaim lands condition- { ally granted to railroad aad other corporations, ' to anno! fraudulent entries, to prevent unlawmi fadoanrea. aad to protect tbe timbers and j minerals upon tea public domain; but the work { la still Incomplete, and IldwUl require addition : al legislation and constaax vigilance upon tbe i part of. those charged with the admtaUtratios j of the lews, to prevent the improper approprts ] lion of s large part of the most valuable tent- | | lory belonging to the Government. In j I order to do this the co-operation of "the ! legislative and Executive departments la ab I sotutrly necessary, and past experience fast ! shown that this co-operation, except to a Urn | lied extent, could not be secured until after a Democratic Administration was inaugurated ■ The foundation} of the existing sysle/n. endec i wh eh immense landed estates have beea ao- | quirsd by loesfga aad domestic corporation!, j and syndicates, were laid by the Repnbllasii j party, and the fraudulent practices which have , despoiled tbe pnbtie domain of its most fertile ; and valuable sect oas were begum and eontia- i ucd while Republican officials alone went charged with the duty of enforcing the laws aad j protecting tbs interests of lbs Govenusent and tbe people. Eren now, when the magnitude of the evil Is almost universally reoogntxed, sod the demand for immediate reform la urgently pressed by the homeless labor of the oooatry the Republican Sec ale either refuses to act al: | all or proceeds slowly and reluctantly to the consideration of the subject. On the other hand, the Democratic House has been earnest and active in it* efforts to secure such change* in the laws a* wtu dedicate the public lands to actual settler* under tbe Homcatead law. ami has even gone so far aa to amend it* rules in 1 order to give suck measures preference over other bustus»s.

V.J»U connected with the gitiuu of r«nour redaction is the question of honesty sad economy to the pa bile expenditures. That the ordinary expenditures of the Government# not including pension# or payments upon the principal and interest of the war debt, hart enormously outgrown the Increase of population and public business, is a proposition which can be mathematically demonstrated; and. as thia la a rereraal of the rule that prerails under sound and healthy conditions ct the nubile serr.ee, it proves the existence of some rice in our present system that ought to be eradicated Since the fourth of Karel, IMl. the Democratic party has not had control of both the Legislative and Executive depart mentaof the Ooremmegt for a single day. nor has it. aiaee that date, had control of both branches of the Legislative department at the same time. it can not. therefore, be lastly held responsible either for the legislation or the Exeeuuva policy under which thlx great Increase of expenditure* was Utangwraled and maintained. With the opposition of a Republican Seoata the Democratic House of Representatives has so far been unable either to repeal or amend existing laws, or properly to curtail expenditure# under them: and although the present Administration has succeeded, by chiefs) attention to details, in effecting very considerable tarings In many branches of the public service, the aggregate 1# still much too larg". and ought so be further reduced. But this can be done only by legislation, sad If the task Is Intelligently performed, upon a definite system cc plan which comprehends the whole subject, the expenditures »dl be greatly diminished, sad lit the same time the efficiency of the public service will be materially promoted. There is QOS too much machinery for the work to be Horn:, mad too many engineers In charge of ft. These are toe maay bureaus, divisions sad subdirtttoas la sod about the various department!, and too little concentration of labor and odkinl responsibility This cempMratet and confuses the operations of the Government, and rank vs the transaction of the public business and annoying to the people, awd at the time It compels the retention of many officials and employes whose services might otherwuo be dispensed with. Them la so reason to holsere that the E*publicaa party would make, or attempt to make, say substantial reduction of expenditures, or give Its support to this accessary reform la the public service. It could not do

enner witnont repudiating its pul putter ih undoing tu own work. It we look beyomd the erdiurj outlay fur the support of the Government, and ooosldvr the general ootxree of the two parttoo in rein tot to the appropriation and expenditure of the public monej for other purposes, the difference betweow them la. tf pcasibK auu am imaorUni In the matter of pensions especially. the Republican party. In and out of Cospress. has uoioagbiy committed ttnelf to a policy which, if earned oat, would bankrupt the country, or. at the Tory least, subject the pay pie to a tMtrdem of Isxstlea that would serious, y rrirfle and embarrass all their Industries.
