PRESIDENT TAFTS INAUGURAL
ADDRESS

Mr.. Taft's inaugural address is
conservative and clear. His outline
OF she policy his administration will
pursue follows very closely the prin-
eiples OF the platform upon which he
was elected.
He commences with an endorse
ment OF the reforms and policies in
ugurated by his predecessor and
pledges himself TO continue them.
He admits, as his distinguished pre-
decessor has often done, that there
are good and bad trusts, and that
the law looking TO their regulation
should beenforced and strengthened.
He declares that he is going so
have she tariff revised and will call
special session OF Congress TO do the
work, but he sticks so close TO the
rule laid down for him by the con-
vention which nominated him that
be embodies the exact language OF
his platform In his address,
to-wit, that protection should
be afforded by the tariff equal
to the difference between the
cost OF production abroad and
she cost OF production here. 1t Is
difficult, OF course, to understand
what this means, but is is generally
understood to mean a promise to
continue the protective policy TO the
extent that monopolies viii not be
interfered with, which, being inter
preted, means that there will be no
real revision OF the tariff.
BE advocates an inheritance tax,
urges economy In governments ex-
penditures, but not to the extent OF
interfering with national progress or
increase OF the navy and army sui
hcient TO keep the country from hold
Ing her own with the nations ~ the
world.
he throws a bouquet at the South
In the form Of an apparent promise
not to appoint negroes to federal
positions in this section, and closes
wish a reference TO the labor ques-
tion and iniunctions in which he up
holds the position he TOOK during
the campaign which resulted in his
election.
Upon the whole his utterances will
be generally endorsed and all SET
lions OF she country and all parties
will join in the wish that his admin
istration will be one OF marked
progress and success.
