THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER >. 1907

\ good Zeal of comment has arisen
over Nj. Tafts criticism of the Dem
ocratic party lie was not as Sc
yer" in his criticism of the PARTY
as he was Of Mr. Bryan.
His chief criticism against the
party was that it wa one 90 ol
struction and negatiou The secre-
tary should recall ~, fact that il
was Democratic administration
that passed the income tax law
which was later declared unconstitu-
tional; that this measure was refut-
ed by the Republican party. and
that now he admits that an income
tax law would be we'll
The rate bill for which the war
secretary would take unto the marty
so much credit was not conceived by
the Republican party. but was the
adoption of Mr.. Bryan's idea whom
he takes occasion 10 criticiso so Sc
verely. The rate bill was led i'm the
senate by Senator THlman. of South
Carolina. than whom the administra-
ton has no greater enemy. With
the exception of the two late sana-
tors from Alabama every Democrtt-
lc senator voted for the rate bin
The Democratic party has never hes
itated to withhold its support from
a measure simply hecaug, introduced
under Republieau administration.
1t appears also that Secretary
Taft is somewhat of a Democrat on
the tariff question. He is not a
"stand-patter" in any sense of tho
term. He admits that certain parts
OF the Dingley law are iniquitous.
Mr.. Taft prides himself as being
progressive. 1t is difficult to un-
derstand just how he can accuse De
mocracy of being a party Of uoga-
ton when he has openly declared
himself as favoring a number of
Democratic doctrines.

Editor Daily Leader: Can you
inform your readers why the au-
thorities took no action in the mat
ter of the killing of the child by the
street car. In any other communi-
~ the motorman would have been
arrested and held for the grand
jury. and there should have been a
coroner's inquest Your vigorous
editorial on the matter of tenders
for the street cars. is highly endorsed
by your readers Yours,
CITIZEN.
II the accident was occasionel by
carelessness, it is a matter which
should have been thoroughly investi-
gated. We are told that the boy
passed just in front of a rapidly
moving car and that it was too late
for the motorman to avoid the acct
dent, and as the car was being run
without fender the child was
frightfully crushed under the wheels.
IT the accident was occasioned by
the child running so near the front
OF moving car that the motorman
was unable to stop in time. but did
all he could to prevent the accident.
he is not criminally liable II APP
pears that it was the street car com
pany's fault in not providing the
usual life saving device.
There should have been coron-
or's investigation. But it was the
duty of some citizen to bring the
matter to the attention of the proper
authorities and when an investiga-
ton is demanded cannot be refused.

scribes who had commenced to edit
revised edition of the constitution
called The unwritten constitution.
The President is the prophet of this
new creed, the Messiah of this strange
thing he has no right to do, and that
is to use the vast public patronage
at his disposal to compel obedience to
his views Another thing he has no
right to do. and that is to make com
pacts with the speaker of the house
of representatives or its committees,
to accomplish the legislation that he
desires, or prevent legislation. And
still another thing he has no right 10
do, and that Is beyond his messages,
in which he is given the right at any
time to suggest any measure he may
deem proper or necessary, to interfere
with legislation and to force congress
either to adopt his recommendations
or If it rejects them to bring about d
breach between the legislative and
executive departments that is detei-
mental to the best interests of the
country: that constitutes an assump-
ton Of dictatorial power which the
people of this republic. in the course
of time will not submit to, care NOT
how great the achievement or how
much 1t may conduce to their progress
and welfare, or what benefit we may
derive from it's accom- piisnment."
In conclusion Mr. Rayner said
II believe that if the democratic
party would take up as it's battle cry
the reserved rights of the states, and
the inviolate constitutional distinction
of the legislative, the judicial and exc
cutive departments, that we could raj
ly around the doctrine the intelligent
suffragists of our countrymen.'
