ing to congress the means by which
the Roosevelt policies shall be
clinched' when Joseph Cannon, of ILL
nois, is speaker of the house. and Mel
son Aldrich is the ruler of the senate,
is good, quite good. 1t proves that
Mr.. Taft is possessed of that sense
of humor, which be believes such an
essential quality in the makeup of

congress has not done to carry out the
Roosevelt policies as delivered to it
by Roosevelt himself. Mr. Tafts sug-
gestion of means to clinch them is
likely to be taken about as seriously
as John L. Sullivan's announcements
that he has sworn off from drink.
Mr. Taft destroys his own case
when he declares that he will not use
magician's wand. Nothing short of
that would ever persuade a Cannon
and an Aldrich, whose continued
power is pre-supposed by Mr.. Taft's
election, to adopt any other attitude
toward the Roosevelt policies second
hand than they have steadfastly main
tanned toward the Roosevelt policies
as advocated by their creator.
If elected, Mr.. Taft will owe his sue
cess to the support of the heads of
those corporations that have been per-
mitted to escape all penalty for VIC
lating the statutes. 1t is not presum-
able that Mr.. Taft will be so lacking in
gratitude as to use the office he owes
to them for their embarrassment.
Granting him the possession of such
austere virtue, what reason is there
to believe that, if these men were able
to nullify every effort of Mr.. Roosevelt
to effect their punishment. Mr.. Taft
Will succeed where. Mr.. Roosevelt

surgeons knife.
The lick received in early childhood
was given as the caues for the neces-

A Witty Irish Judoe,

Mr.. Doherty, who was chief justice
of the Irish court Of common pleas
from 1880 till his death in 1916, was
famed for his wit. The gossip in the
hall of the four courts. which Of course
reached the bench, was that one Of
the judges had been somewhat excited
by wine at an entertainment in Dublin
castle on the previous evening. "ls 1t
true" the chief justice was asked.
that Judge danced at the castle
ball last night?" "Well," replied Do
herty, II certainly can say that saw
him in reel.''
"As came along the quay" remark
ed one of the officers Of the court
whose face was remarkably Ratchet
shaped, "the wind was cutting my
face" upon my honor" replied the
chief justice, II think the wind had
the worst Of it."-London Law Notes.
