interest in the wife's property, and
this was not disturbed by the court.

COMMENDS THE MESSAGE
PRESIDENTS PANAMA POLICY MEETS
APPROVAL OF JUDGE n. 8. TAYLOR.
Leading Idea Is that This Government
should Take Issues Into It's Own
Hands-Strong Platform.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
FORT WAYNE, Dec. S-Judge r. 5. Tay-
lor is outspoken in defense Of the Presi-
dents Panama policy and commends the
Presidents intended stand as shown in
that part of the message dealing with the
isthmian situation and announcing that II
Colombia persisted in blocking progress II
would become the duty of this government
TO take the matter into It's own hands,
this being the character of his recommen-
dalton before he knew that Panama was to
break with Colombia
THE President said Judge Taylor to-
day, naturally expected to be criticised
by Democrats. but there is good reason
why he should not receive the full and cor
was right in his thought and the course
eress to take. He was justified by the
right of eminent domain, which, while a
novel proposition as between one country
and another. is a familiar law within all
civilized governments But its 5ustitica-
ton Is as plain in one case as the other. The
interests of society demand more and more
the subordination of the individual to the
whole in matters that concern the whole.
This is true of nations as well as IN
dividuals. Steamships and railroads have
made all men neighbors. The right of way
for the Panama canal Is to the world what
the right of way for a railroad is to the
State of Indiana-a matter OF great and
common interest.
There is also an international police
power, at least field for its exercise,
as well as an international power of emf
nent domain. But, like the other, 1t is
wanting in the international federation, the
international law and the International
court to give it effect in regular and pre-
scribed form. The situation in Cuba pre-
scented a case for its application. We inter-
fered, delivered Cuba and classified Spain
as the self-appointed representative of the
worlds police power. We would do ex-
actly the same kind of act with exactly
the same kind of justification II Colombia
were to-day in possession and control of
the isthmus and refusing TO ratify the
treaty, If, after reasonable waiting we
should take the matter into our own hands
and build the canal.
I'VE would pay for what We took, of
course. If we and Colombia could not
agree on the amount we would refer that
question to The Hague tribunal or some
other impartial court of arbitration. But
we would build the canal, and we will build
it If Theodore Roosevelt lives"
