PRESIDENT TAFT
is VERY EXPENSIVE


Washington. May 6-President Taft
has Travelled so much that the ex-
penses OF the secret service bureau of
the treasury department which rs
charged with the duty of protecting
him, totalled almost as much during
the past six months as during the full
preceding year.
This statement was made to the ap-
preparation committee of the house by
Chief Wilkie of the secret service In
connection with the hearing on the
sundry civil appropriation bill.
"The activities of counterfelters have
increased in some portions OF the
country and decreased In others, said
Wllkie. "The activity during the last
three months has been very largely on
the Atlantic coast, through New Eng
land and in New York, but our prin-
cipal item of increase expenditure
this year Is the protection of the presi-
dent. He has travelled so much that
our expenses for six months are al
most equal to the expenses of the full
preceding year. 4"

changed. But while the bill was
under consideration in the senate
an amendment was inserted In
committee excluding supreme
judges from the operation Of the
bill, and an amendment was o.
fered on the floor of the senate by
Senator Graves providing for the
nomination Of supreme court
judges by convention only. This
Graves amendment was drawn by
c. Will Shafer, state law librarian,
a position which he holds under ap-
,. pointment by the supreme court.
Its passage was favored by most,
II not all Of the members Of the
court, some Of whom even went so
far as to lobby for its passage.
While this bill was pending the
writer made it point to ascertain
direct from members Of the su-
preme court their attitude toward
it. and while he did not ask all of
them, all of those he did ask frank
ly announced that they favored it.
This included both of the members
nominated in the 1908 primary
election. While the bill was pend
ing, Speaker Meigs Of the lower
house, who was opposing 1t, was
summoned to a conference with
two members Of the court, who
prevailed upon him to change his
position. l see that Mr.. Meigs now
denies this, but he himself is my
authority for the statement. In
this and other ways the vigorous
opposition the measure at first en-.
countered was overcome. and the
bill passed with Graves amendment
That bill then went to Governor
Hay for approval. Governor Hay
was opposed to the convention fea-
ture and had message written ve-
toing it, WHEN A COMMITTEE
OF MEMBERS OF THE COURT
PREVAILED ON HIM TO
CHANGE HIS MIND. IN THIS
MANNER WAS THE JUDICIAL
CONVENTION LAW OF 1909 EN-
ACTED.
First friends and champions of
members of the court insist that
the court should not be criticized
for the actions of the legislature,
or for the iniquities of the conven-
ton system. But for the active
participation of members of the
court in procuring the passage of
this convention bill, this argument
might be a valid one. Under the
circumstances, however, it is I'M
worthy of consideration.
1t is but natural that judges ele-
waited to the bench as result of
nominations at the hand of party
conventions should favor the re-
turn to the convention system. But
il can be accepted as nothing short
of an indication Of preference for
the methods Of machine politics
over those Of popular government
when judges favor = return to the
convention system who received
their nominations in popular pri-
mary contests.
1t was under this judicial con-
vention law of 1909 that both sets
of candidates for the supreme
bench now before the people were
nominated, the republican ticket at
Tacoma August 3, and the indie
pendent non-partisan judiciary
ticket at Tacoma September rs.
But there was this essential differ
ence between the two conventions.
The former was a party-ruIed, boss
ruled convention, the latter was
the voluntary expression Of wIde-
spread popular protest against the
boss-ruled convention system. This
is strikneIy illustrated by citing
one significant action OF zach con-
vention:
The boss.ruIed republican

SUPREME

that those judges are SO honest
that they must not be criticized; SO
honest that they must not be in
vestigated., They have not attempt
ed to reply to these criticisms. In
stead they have treated them with
contempt, and those making them
with ridicule. A typical expression
of this feeling of contempt and rid
icule displayed by the corporation
champions of the court for those
Fventuring to criticize the court is
this expression from speech made
by Frank Post, prominent corpo-
ration lawyer of Spokane, at the
annual convention of the State Bar
association at Aberdeen, July 80,
1909:
Every lawyer in this state who
has as much sense as God gave
geese and who hasn't any kink in
his own character, knows that each
and every member of the supreme
court is man Of the highest in
tegrity and of spotless character"
(Applause.)
This is the story of how the sys-
tenn has time after time saved its
court from a public investigation of
it's actions.
The report of the Powell commit
tee, recommending further investi-
cation of the court by somebody
possessing legal inquisitorial pow
ers, was made public on the day
before the 1909 legislature con-
vened in Olympia. When the leg
islature convened, the state was
fairly boiling over with a popular
demand for such further investiga-
ton. The demand found express
sion in the legislature.
On January 26 Senator Poison OF
Chehalis county introduced in the
senate resolution providing for
thorough investigation of the court
by a committee of five senators
and five representatives. The APP
pearance of the resolution created
immediate CONSERVATION. Presi-
dent Ruth of the senate, the leader
of the old guard faction in that
body, descended from the chair ahd
led the assault upon it, moving
that it be indefinitely postponed.
This motion was bitterly argued,
the spirit of it's old guard cham
pions being much the same as that
displayed in the foregoing quota
ton of Frank Post. So bitter was
the assault, that when the vote was
taken, but IA members championed
the Poison resolution. When the
resolution was disposed of. de-
mand was made on the floor of the
senate that Poison be compelled ito
apologize to that body, on penalty
of being expelled if he refused.
This demand. however, was not
pressed to an issue. as
Because the ncn-partisan judicial
primary law. enacted by the 1907
legislature, had been mutilated IN
committee so that only as many
candidates were permitted to be
nominated as there were judges to
be elected, two supreme judges
had been reelected in 1908 against
whom much criticism had been d.
rected. Had that law provided for
the nomination of two candidates
for each place to be filled. it is
probablet that one or both of them
would have been defeated. AS 1t
was, one of them, Judge Milo A.
Root, resigned under fire almost
Immediately after his election.
This condition gave rise to de-
and for caaNh NJ ~ -
the law as would provide for the
nomination Of two candidates for
each place to be filled. A bill was
introduced In the 1909 legislature
making this change, and as to SUI

convention approved the con-
vsntion system by defeating a
! resolution pledging the restora.
ton Of supreme court judges
to the primary law. The non.
partisan convention repudiated
the convention system, and
pledged its participants to use
all honorable means to bring
about the restoration Of su-
prince judges to the primary
law.
In another way the nOn-partisan
convention eloquently expressed its
confidence in the people. 1t adopt
ed a resolution pledging it's candi-
dates, in case of their election and
in case the legislature of 1911 re.
stores the supreme court to the
primary law, to tender their resig-
in time for the people to
select their successors in the pri-
mary election of 1912.
Thus, by the election Of the non-
partisan ticket the people will have
their supreme court Immediately
restored to them, subject only to
the restoration Of the primary law
by the next legislature, which now
appears assured. But should they
elect the republican candidates,
the five present judges whose
terms expire, they will thereby for.
felt all possibility Of again chang
ing a majority Of members Of the
court for four years and probably
render impossible the change Of a
majority for six or eight years.
Tomorrow's story will tell of the
abortive attempt of the legislature
to investigate the court, and of the
protective measures adopted by the
state bar association.
