ROOSEVELT SCORED
U. s. SUPREME COURT JuRlST
CONDEMNS PRESIDENT.
CONTRASTS HIM WITH GOV. HUGHES
Foolish for a Chief Executive to Quar-
rel Over SimpIified Spelling,
He Says.

New York.-Justice David j.. Brew
er. of the United States Supreme
Court, speaking before a large and
distinguished audience in Carnegie
Hall, criticised and condemned Pres
ident Roosevelt, accusing him among
other things of playing 4 political
game of hide-and-seek with the Amer
lean people.
The speaker drew an open compari-
son between Roosevelt and Hughes,
saying, ironically, that while it had
been said of Roosevelt, while COVER
nor of New York, that he had discoV-
cred the Ten Commandments, Cover
nor Hughes had done more-he had
discovered the Golden Rule.
Justice Brewer was frequently ap-
plauded. His address, delivered, as 1t
was, at the opening public meeting OF
the Civic Forum, a new non-partisan,
non-sectarian organization, and follow
ing, as it did, a speech by Governor
Hughes, in which many in the audi
ence believed they saw a yelled at
tack on the president. created a pro-
found impression. Justice Brewer
said, in part:
Hide and Seek Player.
1.-THE spectacle of our strenuous
president playing h~ide-and-seek with
the American people would not now
be before us if the original provision
of the congress that drafted the con-
stitution were in effect. That pre-
scribed a presidential term of seven
years, with a prohibition on re-elec-
ton.
I'm the judgment Of maryland l
am among them-the change from that
provision was a mistake"
He described a public officer as a
ruler almost as absolute, while his
term lasts, as a king.
But Justice Brewer was careful to
point out that a rulers judgment
should be upon important matters
only. He said, for instance: at is
foolish for a president to quarrel over
simplifed spelling" and this brought
out a roar of laughter.

"Uncle Toms Career About Ended.

For half a century 'Uncle Toms Cabin has

less fondly regarded in the North, but doubtless
there are still people who weep over the woes of
the unearthy bondSmen, unsurpassed i'll refine
ment and incompatible in sadntliness, to be found
in that remarkable book which is strong in its
aim altho it's characters and local color are laugh
ably fictitious and unreal.
Forty years and more ''Uncle Tom has also
appeared on the stage We recall a vivid letter to
his paper written by Henry Grady, describing
the play as he saw it in New York about the year
1880. The brilliant Georgian wrote with some in
dignation and much sorrow, and to this day we
can hear the hiss of the slave drivers whips and
the Snarl of the ''bloodhounds'' he depicted
them At that time it would have been confident
ly predicted that as long as Eliza and her baby
were chased by ''bloodhounds' across the broken
and floating ice of the Ohio river as long the
snake-like whip of the devilish Legree curled
round the mutely eloquent shanks of the angelic
Uncle Tom-thro five long acts-the play would
triumphantly hold the American stage.
But we never be absolutely sure in this
changeful world. For one reason or another peo-

martyr was able to make his bow only in the third
