CONSTITUTION IS
GOOD ENOUGH FOR
PRES|OENT-ELECT
Taft Tells South Car0linans II
Has Done Pretty Good
Service Up to Now.

AUGUSTA, Jan. 15.--One hundred
and eighty men who said they were
Democrats, citizens of Anderson. S. c.,
visited the President-elect yesterday.
Asserting his position to the Ander-
son men regarding the effectiveness of
the constitution to meet the needs of a
developing civilization, Mr.. Taft said:
Il know that sometimes the eonsti-
tuition seems to be in the way of direct
effectiveness. The division under sys-
tens by which the central government
is limited to certain things and the
State governments carry on other
things sometimes seems to work
against the rapid carrying out of some
of the reforms, as, for instance, the
conserving of our natural %our and
perhaps the regulation of railroads and
the suppression of those abuses which
have crept in with our marvellous
progress in the combination of capital.
And yet, gentlemen, that constitu-
ton, simple, clear and comprehensive,
has in the past been capable of so fair
construction as to meet in a marvellous
way the developments and emergencies
of our country which could not bave
been anticipated by those. who framed
1t in any detail at all, n [ am very
certain that the same constitution will
meet the emergencies which may come
on in the future"

SCHEME TO BEAT PIERCE
Unless Country Candidates Agree On
One Man, Tacoma, 1t is Pointed
Out, Will Name Successor.

Tacoma.-A caucus of the entire
district outside of Pierce County, for
the purpose of selecting a candidate
for the Republican nomination in
the forthcoming Congressional con-
vention. is proposed blythe Aberdeen
candidate, E. R. Finch.
The following statement was is
sued from the Finch headquarters in
this city:
Reports from all parts of the
Second Congressional district indi-
cate that the feeling is general in the
IL smaller counties that Pierce
should not at this time secure the
nomination Of one of her citizens as
the successor to the late F. w. Cush-
man. If all the counties remain true
to that feeling, there is no chance Of
Pierce securing the nomination, but,
II any of them break away, there is
every chance of Pierce picking up
enough outside support to nominate
her man. 1t will, therefore, be seen
that the only hope of the smaller
counties lies in united action until
the end.
The Congressional convention, at
which a successor to the late Francis
w. Cushman will be nominated, will
be held at Olympia, Wednesday, Sep
tember 20, at II O'Clock. Delegates
will be apportioned by counties as
follows: Chehalis, %; Clallam, II;
Clark, IS; Cowlitz, %; Mason. Q;
Pacific, 10; Pierce, So; Skamania, 8;
Thurston, 16; Wahkiakum. 8.
