In every quar-t ter there seems to be a determined effof-to look to congress for the enactment of measures which belong properly to the states themselves. In the past decade or two the belief seems to have been engendered that if congress will only pass an appropriation for some great public improvement the states will reap the benefits without tn any way bearing the burdens.
