'In the Philippines we have adopt
ed the system of refusing a Judge his
regular monthly stipend unless he can
file certificate with his receipt for
his salary in which he certifies on
honor that he has disposed of all the
business submitted to him within the
previous sixty days. This has had a
marvelously good effect in keeping the
docket of the court clear.
Another defect in our judicial sys-
tenn is giving to defeated litigants two
appeals.
so far as the litigant is concerned.
one appeal is all that he should be
entitled to.
again there has been manifested in
our appellate courts too great a dis
position to reverse cases for error in
the trial below. The complaint that
the courts are made for the rich and
not for the poor has no foundation in
fact. But the inevitable effect OF the
delays incident to the machinery now
required in a settlement of controver-
sizes in judicial tribunals is to put at
a disadvantage the litigant and to give
great advantage to his wealthy OPP
ponent. l do not mean to say that
If it is possible humanity speaking. to
put them on an exact equality in re-
gard to litigation but it is certainly
possible to make the conditions more
nearly equal by cutting of every step
in the litigation that delays and is not
absolutely necessary
Another method of getting rid of
great deal of litigation that contin-
ues a great deal of the time. and con-
sumes a large portion of the atten-
ton of the courts could be effected by
the introduction of system for the
settlement of damage suits by all en-
ployes against employers through Of
fetal arbitration and without resort to
jury trials
With the conclusion Of Mr.. Taft's
speech the banquet ended.
The candidates shook hands cor
daily and parted, although they were
delayed in leaving the hall by rush
of guests who wished to obtain sig
| natures.

made and signed by five men, who
stood at the head of five great railway
orders and in that statement the world
was told that 100000 men were engaged
as employees in the railway service.
Every new invention, 1 repeat, has en-
larged the demand for labor as it has
multiplied the efficiency of labor. 1 am
not prepared to say that We have not
recognized the duty that society owes
to bear some of the burdens that may
fall temporarily on people displaced by
improvements that bring a large gain
to society. I am not sure that we have
yet recognized that when society is to
get honor society ought to compensate
those who individually suffer for So
ciety's benefit. But whether We have
an accurate adjustment or not, there IS
no doubt that society has largely
gained one of the great inventions that
has been largely for the enlargement
of commerce that is the corporate
entity. The corporation is a step in adj
vance. 1t enables people to do together
what people could not do alone. 1t re-
lieves those who cooperate of the EN-
barrassments of partisanship and 1t
substitutes larger operations and thus
facilitates the work of exchange and
none who has estimated with intelli-
gence the usefulness of the corporation
will for one moment think of destroy
ing the power that the corporation
gives for cooperative efforts. But with
every new step in advance RESPONSE
bilities come. When the railroad took
the place of the turnpike laws were
necessary that. were not in the highwa :
but society recognized that the railroad
| had been a necessity, adjusted itself to
the railroad and then proceeded By
| legislation to correct whatever abuses
might arise in the management of the
| railroads. And SO society accepting
| the corporation as an established fact,
| is proceeding to enact such laws as
NAV be necessary to make the corpora
tions serve the purpose for which they
were created and 1 am sure that the
( members of the association, this aSSo-
/ citation organized for the protection of
| the cities interest for the development
! of the city commerce and for the adj
| vancement of the city's good, recog-
! nize that with the large power that
| corporate action gives restriction is
necessary There is a difference be-
! ural man. There is a difference in
creation. God made man, he did not

| weakest but when the law creates the

Suecial to the Herald.
New York, Nov. 2S.-Following a
suggestion made by the Episcopal
Brotherhood of ST. Andrew, the week
beginning tomorrow is to be observed
by mems organizations of all denomi-
nations as a week of prayer for the
spread of Christ's kingdom among the
men of. the whole world. Besides the
Brotherhood of st. Andrew, the organ
izations which have announced their
adherence to the arrangement include
the Presbyterian Brotherhood, the
Congregational, the Baptist. the Meth
odist and the United Presbyterian
Brotherhoods. Several organizations
in Europe also have agreed to CO.
operate in the movement. This is said
to be the first time that mems organ
izations of so many religious bodies
have acted in unison and the occasion
| is regarded as all the more significant
from the fact that the initiative was
taken in the Episcopal church, which
does not ordinarily lend itself to in
| terdenominational movements.
