NEW HAVEN, Conn, May 2.--Judge
William II. Taft, secretary of war, de-
livered the final address in tbs Dodge
foundation course of Yale last night
on "The Responsibilities of Citizen
ship"
He treated the subject from the
standpoint OF the national executive.
Following the address a large recep-
tion was given to Mr. Taft by Presi-
dent Hadley and the faculty of Yale.
Preliminary to his address, Judge
Taft referred to sensational newspa-
per attacks upon public men and un-
warranted press hostility and misrep-
resentation of policies Of a national
administration.
Praises Correspondents
He said that in general such attacks
did not harm. He paid a high tribute
to the news correspondents resident
In Washington, and said that the
amount of attention given to them by
administrative circles and even the
president himself would amaze the
public.
OF legislation he said
1T is encouraging to men close to
headquarters in Washington to find
how much less influential private in
terests are in securing beneficial legis-
lation for themselves than is generally
held to be the case. Speaking gen.
orally the people in the end get the
kind of legislation they want although
it sometimes takes one or two or three
congresses to reach It,"
Toward the end of his address Judge
Taft paid a glowing tribute to the civil
service in Washington.

"A Knavish SUGGESTION

AS | have frequently stated the
washington Post is the most brilliantly
edited Independent paper in America
1t discusses men and measures with
perfect abandon. generally in a most
interesting manner. Sometimes it
shocks its more fnicky readers by
its plain speaking touching various
schemes of so called philanthropy. Re
Gently under the above caption it said
editorially:
There are high standards of political
morals and low standards. There are
men who would as lief buy the verdict of
a juror as the vote of an elector and. in
truth, to debauch an election is no whit
better than to corrupt lawsuit. We be-
lieve the country is rapidly awakening to
this conclusion, and the time is nigh at
hand when it will be as disgraceful to
buy a vote as it has ever been to sell
vote.
In Rhode Island there is an exciting
race for United States senator between
the present incumbent, George P. Wet
more and Samuel p. Colt, both Repub-
licans. Mr. Colt, it appears, Is connected
with what is known as the rubber trust,
that employs 10000 hands in Rhode Is-
land. This concern only day or so ago
mace an oruer tndt us employees III
Rhode Island should receive ten hours
pay for nine hours work. This IS pro-
nouneed "shrewd political move" What
has politics got to do with that rubber
trust-honest politics, / mean?
Either the profits of this trust justified
the advanced wage or they did not II
they did justify it. then why should Mr.
Colt get the political advantage suggest
ed in this dispatch? If the labor Of the
men justified the advance. then Mr. Colt
is entitled to no credit for Il. He has
only performed an act Of simple duty.
There is another way to look at it, If
this is a ''shrewd political move it is not
very much of a compliment TO those
10000 hands. for the mere suggestion Is
that they have 10000 votes to sell for SO
much wages.

Who

Usually midway between two presi-
dental elections everybody Is up in the
air as to who the presidential nominees
of the two great parties will be. Now,
there is little, If any, doubt, provided
two men live and will accept the nomi
nations William j. Bryan and Theo.
dore Roosevelt AS they are both in
the prime of life, In the pink of condi-
ton and of robust constitution the
chances are thousand to one that they
will both be alive-very much aliye-in
1908 AS to Bryan's acceptance there
has never been any doubt. During the
campaign lady asked me IL thought
that President Roosevelt would accept
another nomination if it were rendered
to him. Playing Yankee, | replied by
asking her if she thought that full
feathered duck would swim If it got
a really good chance, and that is about
the way the average citizen looks at 1t.
True. he has said in every way that
man can say thing that he would not
be candidate, but when Republicans
explain to him that he is the only man
y
probabilities are that he will accept.
Should he stick to his decllnation It
looks as if the race will be between
Uncle Joe, Secretary Taft and Vice
President Fairbanks. If Uncle.Ioe could
call back five years he would probably
capture the nomination, and he may do
it anyway. Judging by such signs as
are apparent to even casual observer.
Root and Taft are the presidents ia
vorites among his cabinet officers, but
several things. among them the place
of his residence, initiate against the
presidential aspirations Of Secretary
Root The Republicans have never
taken presidential candidate from
New York except in the case of Presi
dent Roosevelt. and they would not
have taken him had he not already
been president by reason of McKia-
ley's tragic death.

Ihe St. Louis Globe Democrat. which
manages TO get Oh the wrong side oil
every question. is opposed to a Jap
anese exclusion law and gravely argues
that while the japanese coolies have
increased rapidly on the Pacific slope.
there is not so much danger from an
INVASION by them as by the Chinese
coolies for the reason that there are
not so many people in Japan as IN
China, That is ridiculous, for Japan
is more densely populated than China
and recently went to war with China
and Russia III order to find room into
which her surplus population might
swarm. She forced both those wars to
secure more territory. and the suppos-
ed fact that she needed more land was
one reason for the almost universal
sympathy exhibited for the Japs in
those two bloody contests. True, there
are not so many Japs as Chinese, but
the causes impelling the Japs to emf
CRATE are stronger than in the case of
the Chinese Japan could easily spare
100000 or 100000 of coolies. Truth
to tel. she would be better off with
out them and 100000 or 100000 of
Japanese coolies in this country would
play everlasting swath with American
labor. The CD. says they are more
desirable than Chinese coolies because
they adopt American dress and man
ners which Is no recommendation

they are less cIannish than the Chi
