Parker Constitutional Clubs.

There is no class of men with sincerer
regard for constitutional government than
the lawyers. In every country where
there has been anything resembling a
onstitution-whether a written instru-
ment or recognized systematic lawyers
have been its chief defenders.
And it is so now. They have started in
New York a movement which should
spread all over the country. They have
organized a Parker Constitutional Club
and its membership is made up of the
most prominent and patriotic members OF
the profession. Mr.. Roosevelt is strongly
disapproved. 1t is believed that his cleo
tion would result in one-man despotism
which would be most disastrous to the
republic. The New York Post says that
the club intends to go fully, thoroughly
and impartially into the record of Presi-
dent Roosevelt. 1t promises to deal not
in generalities, but in facts, and these will
be presented before the voters in such a
clear and comprehensive way as to show
the radical departure President Roosevelt
has made in a number of executive actions
and the extreme danger, as the club con-
siders it, of intrusting power to an execu-
tive of his temperament.
