WILLIAM II. TAFT.

The appointment of the Philippine
Commission with William H. Taft, Of
Cincinnati, as President, will make
him the head of the government of
the islands. He is man of broad
experience as judge, with ability
displayed in most of his wolk. His
! father was Judge Alphonso Taft, who
was in turn Secretary of War, 7Attor-
ney General, Minister to Austria and
| Russia.
William Fl. Taft was born in Gin
cinnati, September 18th 1857. He
received his early education in the
Mount Auburn district school, and
later went to Yale College. He be-
came fullfedged lawyer in 1880,
and the next year was made Assist
ant Prosecuting attorney of Hamilton
county. President Arthur appointed
him Collector of Internal Revenues
for Cincinnati, which he resigned to
accept the appointment of Judge of
the Superior Court, rendered to him
by Governor Foraker to fill the I'M
expired term of Judge Harmon. In
1888 Judge Taft was regularly
elected to the Office. President Har-
rison appointed him Solicitor Gener-
al of the United States, and latec he
was selected to fill the created posi-
ton Of Judge of the United States
Court of Appeals for Cincinnati.
Judge Taft is man of sunny dis
position and consequent popularity.
His friends are found wherever he
is known, and it is believed his work
at the head of the Philippine Com
mission will be as satisfactory and
successful as in his many positions
on the bench.

AS ALL students of economics have
predicted, the trusts are their own
worst enemies and the most of them
will sooner or later be reorganized on
a reasonable basis, when they will be
Of direct benefit to the people in re-
ducing the cost of manufactured
products. The truth of this has been
exemplifed in the breaking up of the
Aoor trust, its life having been even
shorter than was exp cted. The only
trusts that can live long are those
having control of monopolies of nat
ural products like oil, but even this
may be broken up by some new in

IMPERIALISM NOT EXPANSION.


This week the Porto Rican tariff
hill passed the house, with only live
dissenting Republican votes. The
bill provides that the products OF
Porto Rico shall be taxed Is per cent
of the Dingley tariff rates for two
wears in order to raise revenue with
which to aid the Porto Ricans to
recover from the devastating storm
Of last summer. Six million dollars
is needed by the Porto Ricans and it
was estimated that only one million
Of this could be raised from the
islanders themselves. Hence this
bill. according to the ways and means
committee.
But the real cause of the bill is the
fear which the sugar and tobacco
trusts have of free Porto Rican prod
ucts. The president in his message
favored free trade and the original
bill reported by the ways and means
committee was free trade measure.
The bill is direct reputation of
Fundamental Republican principles.
THE constitution extends to the ter
ritories" was the principle that gave
it birth, a1d "the foreig ner pays the
tax" has been echoed from all tariff
discussions. Now the the constitu-
ton is limited to the United States,
and tariff is levied on Porto Rican
products in order that we may Bone
violently help the Porto Ricans pay
tax by making them pay it them
selves.
It will be the sheerest folly for any
Republican paper to try to defend
the bill. The only thing to be said
is that it is limited to two years and
will never be re- enacted.
We doubt however whether the
bill will ever become a law, provided
the present running fire of opposition
is maintained during the bills pro-
gress through the senate and later
in conference.

Our Legislative bodies have become
too much imbued with their obliga-
tons to colleagues and the idea of
settling all questions by compromise.
The only obligations Of congress
men are to vote for the interests of
the the. people. Compromises when
a principle is involved are an inven-
ton of the evil one and just as i'm
possible as it is for person to be
an accessory to high treason without
at the same time being principle.

IT is intimated that the corrupting
influences of the Pacific railroads are
at the bottom of the vexing delay
of the interoceanic canal projects:
These railroads may yet learn that
the government can assume the con-
troll of land as well as water trans
portation, if it comes a question as
to whether the railroads or the people
are going to run this government.

The latest news in the political
circles is that Lieut-Gov. Smith be
named for one of the railroad and
warehouse commissioners and his
present position be given to some
Swedish-American of Minneapolis,
presumable Judge Werner. A. N.
Dare, the present speaker of the
House and G.. F. Staples, another
prominent republican legislator, are
being favorably mentioned for the

are not lawyers. With Gov. Smith
as one of the members the board
would have, at least one member to
