TAFT,s MESSAGE.

President Taft has sent another
message to congress, and the latest
contribution to official literature is
just triHe longer than those that
came before. 1t is evident that the
executive pen is becoming more facile
or that the old message writer has
been restored to power.
This time Mr.. Taft is displeased
with conditions in Porto Rico. The
Island dependency has ignored the
White House In running its affairs,
and apparently has also ignored its
own best interests The Legislature
has adjourned without going through
the formality of voting funds to de-
fray the expenses of government for
the ensuing year. And as matter or
course the state machinery is not run
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1909-05-14

ming very smoothly without its &C
customed lubricant
In the opinion of the President the
politician is getting in his work down
in Porto Rico and this is the cause Of
the late unpleasantness. That the
Porto Ricans have learned the game
early is evident from the gentle
charge, and that they have learned it
well is demonstrated by the necessity
for a special message.
Why the United States should hest
tate to annex Porto Rico outright and
give her the same form of government
the other territories have is hard to
understand. Later on she might have
a star on the flag. Porto Rico and
Cuba could be used very handily by
Uncle Sam, and they are so tempting
ly close that they should be very easily
assimilated
Porto Rico is at present governed
under the Foraker act, but Mr. Taft
thinks that this act should be amend
ed He might go even further in his
with perfect pro-
priety.

RUNAWAY AFTERMATH.

With fanfare Of trumpets the Hon
Hillary A. Hoyse, junior senator from
the good ccunty Of Davidson, donates
to charity some ffty-six dollars re
ceived from the state treasury, one
hall of the amount for services rem
dered the state as law-maker during
the seven days that he was disporting
himself in the wilds of Kentucky as
a member of the all-star "Runaways"
cast, the other half generously handed
back to him by the Senate after the
cost of bringing erring feet into the
path had been assessed against the
owner of the feet. Not content WITH
giving this amount of what should
have been the states money to one
charitable institution Mr.. Howse dis
tributed 1t among five. 1t could not
be proven that his purpose in doing
this was to curry favor with a larger
number of voters, prospective or 9TH
erwise In thus casting to the winds
funds to which the Senator evidently
feels no right he questions the ethics
of the Senate's action in voting them.
The lay member would have some
trouble in figuring out the right Of the
State to thus indirectly appropriate
money for the purpose Of fostering the
ambitions of the generous solon. What
right Mr.. Howse had to the money in
the first instance is hard to determine.
During his absence he rendered the
state no service. In absenting him
self from the Senate he entailed upon |
the state the expense of effecting his |
return. 1t would have been in much |
better taste for the gentlemen to have
permitted the money to remain in the
state treasury, where 1t rightfully, If
not legally, belonged.

The action Of the Quarterly Court
Of Malry county fl voting $4,000 for
the purpose OF securing the location OF
the state Normal School IN Columbia
viii meet with the approval Of the
people OF this county. II stamps the
court as q BODY Of intelligent and pro
gressiye men ever glad TO take advan-
tage Of arg opportunity to promote
the welfare OF the people whom they
represent
Now that the county has come for
ward so promptly with her end Of the
burden the outlook for bringing the
big educational institution here is
much brighter. Besides appropriating
the money the Court showed to the
world that the sentiment IS strong
throughout the county for locating the
school here-and one Of the strongest
arguments that can be made to the
locating board is that public sentiment
demands the school.
The city has already adopted reso-
buttons pledging the Athenaeum build
ing as a site, and will increase this
offer by the appropriation Of any rea-
sonable amount necessary. 1t is now
assured that the city getting the school
over Columbia will be put to the neces-
sity OF making some rather extrava-
CANT bids.
That Maury county will greatly
profit by the location of the school
in Columbia is assured. 1t was this
fact, rather than the good which
would come to Columbia, which In
duced the magistrates to appropriate
the county money.
Good for the esquires.

THE ALABAMA JupeEsHlP.

President Roosevelt has set at rest
all speculation as to the Alabama
Judgeship by appointing William l.
Grub, member of the Birmingham
bar, to succeed Judge Oscar r. Humid
ley, who for more than two years has
discharged the duties Of the ONCE.
The appointment is said to meet with
the appreciation of Alabama lawyers.
Judge Grubb is not known as a poll
tician and his name has not Travelled
as far, perhaps, as his ability war
rants, for he is conceded to be a good
lawyer.
During the time that he was in Of
fee Judge Hundley met with strong
opposition from the Alabama dele
cation in Congress, and his nomina-
ton was never confirmed, although
President Roosevelt sent his name
back to the Senate on more than one
occasion. He had the enmity Of Sen
ators Pettus and Morgan, during their
life time, as well as of Congressman
Richardson and other Alabama mem
bers. After the death of Morgan and
Pettus Judge Hundley's chances
Frightened as their successors did
not at first oppose his confirmation.
Then came the appointement OF re-
ceivers for the Southern Steel COM
pany, gigantic corporation, and the
did not meet with the
Of the corporate interests OF
Alabama. Walker Percy, leading |!
for the Tennessee Coal Iron
e Railway company, which was taken
over by the United States Steel cor
Joration, proved to be one of Judge
bitterest enemies and led
he fight against his confirmation In
he interest of harmony, no doubt, Mr.
irubb was named for the place.
While acting as judge of the North
I'm district of Alabama Judge Humid
ey did much toward clearing the con-
,ested docket, and his rulings were

Frank B. Kellogg, the original trust
buster, whom President Roosevelt
placed at the near-head of his legal
department about the time that he
entered the lists as an amateur Octu.
pus hunter, has announced that he
will retire to the practice of law with
in the next year, and will be succeed
ed by Robert Stone, of Kansas. Mr..
Kellogg has been very prominent in
Standard Oil prosecutions and has
made wide reputation as an attorney.
Had he been given carte blance, with
the full support Of the government,
there is little doubt but that he could
have put a few trust magnates in Jail,

rebates. He has always been regard
ed as a man of much ability and great

when caught they had in their posses

wrung from Mr.. Whitla, and they
made but feeble effort to excuse their
crime. There was not the slightest
doubt Of their guilt and there was
nothing in their past lives or record to
Justify the court in mitigating the
penalty. They were criminals OF des-
perate character and so long as at lib
erty were a menace TO any community,

deter them from the commission Of a
deed that promised lucrative returns.
In attempting to cast odium upon

wEleAERs INDICTED.

Indictments have been returned In
the Federal courts against weighers
employed by the American Sugar Re
fining company, charged with defraud
ing the government of duty by means
of false weights The government
will attempt to prove that the big
sugar company has been systematical-
ly robbing the nation through the use
OF scales equipped with spring de-
vices by which a slight pressure would
tighten the weight of the sugar from
twelve to fifteen pounds on
each weighing It Is claimed
that this permitted saving in duty Of
from three to five per cent upon the
capital stock. The salary of the
weighers was $13 per week and they
are said to have received an additional
$500 per week. The sum lost to the
government through the transaction
is estimated at $144,000. II the gov
eminent makes out case against the
indicted weighers and secures their
conviction It would be almost a per
version OF justice, as the real culprits
are those higher up, who not only con-
ceived the dishonest scheme but were
responsible for It's execution. II
would be unfortunate indeed II those
who profted nv the transaction es-
capped punishment while their dupes
were made to suffer.
