His judicial Career Begun.


as a judge that at the close Of his
appointed term he was triumphanlly
elected for another term. But already
he had attracted attention outside his
State, and he had served but two years
of the five years for which he had been
elected when President Harrison asked
him to take the difficult position of SO
llcitor General of the United States.
This was an Office of the utmost i'm
portance, involving not only wide learn
ing and tremendous application. but
the power of clear aud forceful pres
entation Of argument Two of the
cases which he conducted as Solicitor
General involved questions of vital inn
p0rtance to the entire country. The
first grew out of the seal fisheries con-
troversy with Great Britain. Mr.. Taft
won against such eminent counsel as
Joseph II. Choate, who is widely recog-
nized as a leader of the American bar
The other was a tariff case in which
the law was attacked on the ground
that Speaker Reed had counted a quo
rum when the bill passed the House.
That, too, he won. It was during his
term as Solicitor General that Mr.
Taft met Theodore Roosevelt. then
Civil Service Commissioner, and began
the friendship which has continued and
grown ever since and which has had
such far-reachng influence upon the
lives of both men.
The Globe-republican. [volume] (Dodge City, Kan.) 1889-1910, 1908-10-01
On tho Federal Bench.

Mr.. Taft's record as solicitor general
so clearly proved his fitness for the
bench that after three years in Wash
ingon he was sent back to Ohio as
Judge of the Sixth Federal Circuit, a
post generally recognized as a prelimi-
nary step to the Supreme Court, which
was then the goal Of his ambition
1t was during his seven years on the
federal bench that Mr.. Taft's qualities
as a judge became known throughout
the country. He was called upon then
to decide some of the most important
cases that have ever been tried in the
federal courts, IN the conduct of which
he estabI shed an enyiabe reputation
for learning. courage and fairness
three essential attributes of great in
list. His power Of application and his
ability to turn off enormous masses of
work received ample demonstration
during this time. 1t was IN this period
Of his service that he rendered the la
bor decisions which have made him
famous as an upright and fearless
judge. In his treatment Of both labor
and capital he showed that here was
Judge who knew no distinction Of
parties when they appeared as lltigants
before him. He voiced the law as he
knew 1t and the right as he saw 1t, 10
matter where the blow fell or whom It
struck If sometimes the decisions
wci.t against what organized labor at
that time believed to be Its cause, it
must not be forgotten that no clearer
OF broader statement Of the true rights
Of labor has even been made than In
some Of his judicial utterances. Law
yers conducting litigation In other
courts on behalf Of labor unions have
often cited these decisions Of Judge
Taft In support Of their contentious.
Neither should 1t be forgotten that one
Of the most important and far reach
Ing Of all his judgments was that
against the Addystone Pipe Company,

mon antitrust law was made d living,

ment Of monopoly When this case
reached the Supreme Court. Mr.. Taft
received the distinguished and unusual
honor Of. having his decision quoted in
full and handed down as part. of the
opinions of the high court which sus-
tanned him at every point.

Pioneering the Roosevelt Policy.

This Addystone Pipe decision mark
ed the beginning of the struggle for
federal control of interstate corpora
tons which in the later years has come
to be known as the Roosevelt policy"
Mr.. Taft in an address to the American
Bar Association at Detroit, in the sum
mer Of 1898, had enuncated the prin-

special privilege Thus Mr.. Taft pio-

she was met. by . rush Of flames that
completely felled her to the floor in an
unconscious condition, her husband
barely succeeding in dragging her to the
window and hurting her out to safety.
Mr.. Montville then directed his efforts
in trying to rescue his child, who was
occupying bed in the same room, but
each attempt failed and he was finally
driven out by the flames, which by this
time had completely enveloped the in
terror Of the building, only to see his
child cremated within arms length of
safety. Leaping to the ground below
ladders we're at once hoisted to the win
dow of the room occupied by two other
children, but as soon as the window was
broken in the place resembled a fiery
furnace, volumes of flames shot out and
cut off all possible help, and two more
of the unfortunate little ones persisted
here.
The victims were John, aged 8; Del
phine, aged 10: and Mary, aged Is.
The Montville family were until few
years ago residents of toilette in this
