It means that ithe parties can hold together easily so long as they have vitality, and that they will be decently buried whenever they are dead.

In every: thing else, state and nation have their separate functions, with their separate organizations to attend to them. But the party organizations are purely national, and their scattered branches. are provinces or depart- ments rather than states of the central sovereignty. In our more bitterly partisan days, constables and county clerks were elected on the slavery or tariff ques- tion, and where party nominations for these offices survive they are ostensibly 80.

Will It Lend To Better Things? The newer movement may be the beginning of something better. We need, localism in America, just as we need nationalism and international- ism, We' have had too much of the wrong sort of all three—the localism which means log-rolling in Congress; the nationalism which shouts for America not only “first” but chiefly only”; and the hyphenate aberra- tions of internationalism. These, like weeds, nuisances, rub- bish or disturbances, are all ex- amples of “good things out of place.” If the newer state parties can become, instead, the organs of localism in its place, they may help clear the field for nationalism “and internationalism, also each in‘ their places.
