President's Gravest Responsibility.

From the New York Sun.
President Taft has had and possibly
may have no more important duty than
that of filing the vacancy caused by
the death Of the late Chief Justice Fuller.
A hasty selection Is neither necessary
nor desirable. Our country IL entering
upon a very critical stage OF its con-
stitutiOnal development and the next
Chief Justice may play a part only less
important than that Of Chief Justice
Marshall. The growth Of the nation, the
ever-increastng complexity Of its gov
ernmeptal system and the consequent
difficulty Of preserving the equilibrium be-
tween the respective powers of state and
nation make 1t reasonably probable
that the next Chief Justice will exert
an influence of extraordinary Importance.
In q qualified sense but to q very prac-
tical degree the Supreme Court is q con.
tinuous constitutional convention. While
1t Is guided by the simple but mastery
outlines of the Constitution, yet 1t be-
comes necessary to apply and even adapt
the fundamental principles Of the Con-
stitution to the Infinite changes caused
by steam and electricity.

The Quest of Incidence.

In a hammock swinging low
Thought I'd .swee.ly sleep.
Little piece o. rope let go
An dropped me In a heap.
Thought I'd take an auto ride;
Far from care I'd roam.
Engine got a twist inside
Walked six miles back home.
Thought I'd try to aviate
An sail the skies serene.
Reached earth in disordered state,
Soaked with gasoline.
Don't you hope to travel free
From work or worry, friend.
The laziest-lookin' ways may be
The hardest in the end.

Cuba.

The authorities in Cuba seem to he
on the alert and to possess decision.
A stitch in time saves nine. A con-
spiracy nipped in the bud saves danger
from full-blown flower. 1t gives the
Cuban government prestige abroad as
we'll as at home to keep close track Of
the ill-disposed, and to move on their
works as soon as discovered In this
country there is abundant good will
for the Cubans in their effort to man
age their own affairs. and their success
is greatly appreciated
