TAFT SAYS BEAT 1T.
The Secretary Does Not Like the
Oklahoma Constitution.

Oklahoma City, Ok. Aug. 26.-
Criticizing the constitution of the pro-
posed state of Oklahoma in strong
terms, and advising Republicans to
vote against it's adoption, william H.
Taft, secretary of war, threw a bomb
into the Democratic ranks in his adj
dress to 5000 people in Convention
hall here.
Secretary Taft advised, however,
the election of the Republican state
ticket, because, if the constitution
should be approved by the president,
Republicans alone can be trusted to
amend the document. He, condemned
the hypocrisy of the trainers of the
constitution, and also the gerryman-
der by the Democrats of that body
The functions of President Roosevelt
in dealing with the constitution will be
purely judicial, said the secretary, and
if any of its provisions conflict with the
constitution of the United States or the
enabling act he must reject it. He de-
clared, however. that the president can
not reject the constitution because any
of its provisions meet his disapproval
politically, but that he will perform
much the same functions as the supreme
court.
The secretary at the outset disclaimed
any authority to speak for the president

but his declarations against the consti
tuition were taken by most Republicans
as an indication that the Oklahoma
constitution is doomed. Democrats in the
audience were alarmed and it is prob
able that the constitutional convention
will be reconvened to make further
changes.
Outlines His Objections.
Secretary Taft began by defining
the issues of the Oklahoma and Indian
territory state election as two-fold:
First, the acceptance or rejection OF
the constitution, and, second, the cleo
ton of a Republican or Democratic
state and legislative ticket and United
States senators. He explained his at
titude as that of a Republican putting
himself in the place of citizen of
Oklahoma, and advising the Republic
cans of Oklahoma in respect to the
wisdom or otherwise of adopting the
Constitution.
Mr.. Taft commented at length on
the necessity of maintaining the
power of the courts and condemned
the requirements that jury trial
should intervene between an order of
injunction and punishment for its vio-
lation. He said that th0 writ of in
junction was one of the, most bene-
fetal writs that a court could have
and that it is just as useful in defense
of the poor as in the defense of the
rich and with any weakening of it as
an instrument for remedying wrongs
would operate in, favor of the rich
malefactor.
Criticizing the initiative and referen-
dunn, he said it went further than any
referendum provision tried or adopted
by any state of the Union. He ap-
proves the referendum principle of local
option laws. and for the determine ton
of comforting franchises.
Secretary Taft said that he approves
a great many of the provisions with
reference to the restriction of corporate
franchises and the conduct of corpora
tons, domestic and foreign, contained
in the corporation clause of the con-
stitution. but they might very much
better be in the statutes than in con-
stitution.
There were, however, some provisions
that were so drastic as likely to inter-
fere with the development of the state
and to drive foreign capital away from
investment in the state. The develop
ment of the state was dependent on
foreign capital and if that was dis
couraged the states progress would GER
tainly be delayed.
