506 HASTINGS——POLICE POWER OF THE STATE. [June 12, 
The effect of this decision is to place the authority of Congress 
wholly above the ‘‘sovereign’’ and ‘‘ exclusive’ police power of

a paramount authority to regulate in Congress, and holding that 
such authority does not stop at the state’s border, but accompanies 
the imported article to its destination within the state.
