CRITICISM THAT IS UNFAIR
President Has Acted Wisely In Re-

Some criticism is heard of the presi.

failed to meet his approval.
Now the very course laid down in
this criticism is the course Judge
Tart as president has pursued. He
called congress together in the re-
demption of the party's pledge, and
recommended revision OF the tariff.
He was not expected to submit bill,
and did not. II was for congress to
shape the measure. and he knew. un.
officially. that bill prepared under
the order OF the previous house was
ready for introduction. The bill was
promptly introduced. and since then
the lawmakers have been occupied

business OF incessant legislation either
by city council state legislature or
national congress, says the Milwaukee
Sentinel.
Many men elected to legislative
bodies seem to think that their public
career and their standing In public
life are to be determined absolutely
by the quantity OF new laws they pro
pose and succeed in having enacted
and entered upon our statute books.
So they bob up with a bill on almost
every conceivable topic. AS result
our statute books are burdened with
many useless laws and many good
laws are forgotten and not enforced.
Certain legislation, of course. Is

Whatever may be the views enter.
tanned OF the specific position of Pres
fdent Taft on the subject of a cor
poration tax, and these views differ
without regard to party lines, his dis
position to take hand in legislation
and to disclose his policies is viewed
with general interest and wide an
prevail. Mr.. Taft confessed during the
campaign to lack of technical knowl-
edge of the tariff, and he has con.
tented himself with adhering to his
original stand that the revision should
be mostly downward, and that IL
should be productive of suffi cient rev.
enues for the country. There are very
many persons who think that the re-
vision OF the schedules might very
well be made with regard to revenues
and still show general grading down
OF the tariff in harmony with the
presidents position. He thus has the
hearty support of all who believe in
his campaign stand. That he should
go farther and advocate a tax on cor
porations is an exercise of his discre-
ton. the propriety of which is beyond
question. Those who differ with him
upon this matter may yet be glad that
he has shown the breadth of compre-
hension that his friends have always
claimed in his behalf He has shown
ability and disposition to analyze and
to estimate the effect of such a meas
ure, whatever may be the merits of
his final deductions.
Yet this is only one OF the measures
OF broad scope in which the president
proposes to show his hand. He is
already preparing to make clear his
interest in broad Industrial legisla-
ton. In due time he will express him
self upon the subject near to his
predecessors heart-over-capitaliz

and the tying OF both more closely to

portance of this tentative program
lies not so much in the nature of the

mas not swerved from his devotion to
Roosevelts policies, and that he pro-
poses to have his administration

forcefulness that the present state of
