Which will provoke opposition.
When the bill is introduced IN con-

Theodore Roosevelt tried the temper
OF the people along this line
He ordered the time honored inscrip

popular protest compelled him to re-

will be very unpopular.

itself il not q long one. and. although
the declaration IL oftentimes u1outhed
| by the court clerks into three sylla-
bles. it certainly lends certain so
lemnity to our court procedure.
A little more Of sancttty is sadly
needed in some OF our American
courts In the reaction against the
cumbrous methods Of English juris-
prudence We have gone to the other
extreme.
Besides. this is not a goddess coun-
try.
1t is customary nowadays to criticise
the church methods. That may be
well enough. The church Is fallable
being made of fallable people. But
there are millions upon millions OF
devour worshipers who pronounce tbs
