1t is an old saying that II the stom-

President Not Debating.

Stories sent out by Washington hot
President Taft stands ready TO veto any
tariff bill which does not meet his I'M
qualified approval should be taken only
with the most liberal allowances OF
salt. The authors of the stories are
nothing if not fresh. The stories are
az insult to the President.
President Taft is not dictator in
the sense that he stands ready with a
club to knock the tar out Of any man
or measure which does not dance to
White House music or measure up COM
pletely to his ideas of what is right.
He recognizes that the executive and
the legislative branches of the govern
ment are separate and distinct. Each
has its own peculiar constitutional
functions to perform.
OF course il might be possible that
Congress would return a tariff bill OF
which the President could not approve,
but the contingency is exceedingly re-
mote. Republican members of Con-
gress Know they nave no snap on tnelr
hands in the preparation of a new
tariff measure. The President fully
realizes the delicate responsibility. also.
He knows the vast diversity of inter
ests that must be considered. He
knows the party pledges which must
be kept He also knows that there
must be no abandonment Of the Repub-
lican doctrine of protection.
1t will probably be three months be-
fore Congress will be able TO hammer
a tariff bill into shape to present TO
the President. These lOng-distance
guesses as to what the President will
then do very forcibly reveal the gall
and the presumption which constitute

the milking place by family Of cats,
mother and five kits. They wait
patiently watching the pulling down

and then gather about a tin pan which
is filled with pure milk. and the break,
fast that follows IS more than feas-

There is no unseemly rush for seats,
but the invited guests take their ac-

DO. The meal ended the banqueters
retire 10 their respective work-fields

There is no supper time with them.
