Jackson, Mich, June T.--Socialism |. ,ba great issue before the people of America"
 cnch was the assertion made by president Taft in speech here in se,abration of the fiftieth university ., inc founding of the Republican narty Those who heard the presi- Sents statement believed he might ,e nroclaiming an issue for the coming s.mnaign. for he coupled 1t with the .ssertion that the country soon must decide which political party Is to bs trusted with solving the problem.
 Private Property the Issue.
 "ThIs issue that Is being framed, as f seems to me, is the issue with re snect 10 the institution of private prop prty.p Mir. Taft said. There are tbose who charge to that institution the corporate abuses. the greed and inc corruption that grew out of these abuses the unequal distribution of property. the poverty of some and the undue wealth of others and therefore say we will have none ot if. and we must have a new rule of distribution. that for want of better name we call Socialism,
 The Two Contentious
 "On the other hand, 1t Is contended that it is not the institution of private property that should be abolished. but only that the time has come in which it is necessary to lay down certain rules restricting and regulating the use of that private property which shall not deprive the world of individual effort, but which shall still keep the law and the opportunity to use private property under such control that these abuses may be wiped out and the boon of individual effort still be left. Now my dear friends. that presents | great and difficult problem that am willing to admit we have not yet solved, and the question which the country will have to determine after all Is which party it is which has here \ toiore shown sufficient skill and effec- tiyeness fin dealing with great issues. 1 which party may be trusted to solve that problem. than which we have had no greater In the history of the coun- H try"
 This declaration followed eulogis- ic review of the history of the Republican party, fin which the presi- dent said that the great problems of lhe United States had been handled safely by the Republican party. He
 traced the party from its foundation in
 issi, lauding it's leaders and it's prin-
 eples.

FUR POSTAL BANKS.
REPUBLICAN CAUCUS DECIDES TO RUSH MEASURE THROUGH
 HOUSE.
TO BRING IN A SPECIAL RULE
Only Four Hours Will be Allowed Each Side for Debate, and No Amendments Wll be Permltted-- insurgents in Quandry.

regulars in the house of representa- lives expect to muster up enough cour- age to put through the first cloture rule of this session of congress. Their over night plans are to start the postal saving bank bill on It's merry way to being rairoaded through without the changing of punctuation mark or the dotting of an eye.
 The Bill Agreed Upon. The bill as 1t was agreed upon in the Republican caucus was reported to the house. The new rules committee will hold a meeting this morning and un- leess the machinery slips a cog. five minutes will be sufficient for the for nal adoption of the proposed rule.
 The rule briefly will be this:
 That the house shall proceed at once to the consideration of the bill; that eight hours general debate shall be permitted. four hours to each side; and that no amendments shall be in order. except one in tho nature of a substitute for the whole bill. The question Is how the insurgents will take thls program.
 g It is charged that a majority. of the insurgents favor the pending bill. in the majority of It's provisions. but they would like to offer some amendments -the same they offered in the caucus which were voted down there. Upon the floor of the house with the aid of the Democrats they hoped to get those amendments adopted, but the proposed rule will shut them entirely.
 Would Like to Amend lt.
 Then the adoption of the proposed rule will put the insurgents Tn a nice political hole the regulars have dug for them. By refraining from offering such a rule until they could apply 1t to bill that, taken as body the in- surgents wished passed, the regulars sec their way to committing said in- eurgents to program that will cut the ground of anti-Cannonism from under them. If the insurgents vote for the proposed rule, then the regulars can go home and proclaim that the Cannon methods could mot be very bad, he cause the insurgents themselves stood for them when applied to measure they wished passed
 The postal savings bank bill. as it was reported to the house. Is the Gard ner bill with several minor ard one important changes. That chai-e is that instead of holding 5 per cent Cf whatever funds are deposited in re- serve and investing half the remainder in government securities and putting the other half in local banks. the new bill says 5 per cent shall be held in reserve. 65 per cent deposited in local banks and 30 per cent invested in gov. ernment bonds
 If the cloture rule goes through the bill will probably be passed Thursday.

LIQUOR LOSES AGAIN
THE FEDERAL COURT DECLARES THE KANSAS PRoHIBIToRY
 STATUTE VALID.
NO MORE NlPS AT DRUGSTORES
Judge Pollock Hands Down Decision Upholding the Sunflower state's Most Drastic Law--Harrlson's Suit Was a Test Case.

Kansas City, Kan, June 7.--The final blow is dealt the liquor seller in Kan sas in an opinion rendered by Judge John C. Pollock of the United States circuit court Judge Pollock upholds the liquor act passed by the legislature in 1909 This will drive out the drug store joints" that have defied the Kansas prohibition law since it's adop- ton by the voters of that state in 1881
 The decision was made in the case of Samuel A. Harrison, owner of a drug store here at 502 Minnesota avenue. Mr Harrison is resident of Missouri. He asked that Joseph Tag. gart, prosecuting attorney of Wyan dotte county, be restrained from talk. ing action to prevent him obtaining a permit from the probate judge to sell liquor. As Mir. Taggart is resident of Kansas and Mir. Harrison lives in Missouri the suit was brought in the United States court.
 Mir. HarrIson's Claims.
 Mir. Harrison alleged that the pro hibitory act of the legislature was un- constitutional in that it confiicted with the original act as adopted by the vot- CTS or the state
 The original act specified that liquor could be sold only for medical, me chanical. and scientific purposes. Drug gists were granted permits to sell liquor for these purposes by the pro bate judges and books were kept by them telling what the sale was made for. The attorneys for MT. Harrison said that the act of 1909. in prohibiting the sale of liquor by druggists for any purpose, confiicted with the express provisions of the amendment. They also alleged that 1t was a violation of the Interstate commerce laws. These laws. they contended. empowered leg islatures to enact only laws prohibiting the sale of such commodities as are without beneficial use.
 Jackson Represented State.
 Fred s. Jackson, attorney general oi Kansas. represented the state in the arguments of the case here He saw In the suit an attempt by the brewers also to invalidate the injunction laws enacted by the legislature under which the saloons in Kansas City, Kan. wore closed
 Judge Pollock held that the legisla- ture of Kansas had the right to make any regulation it pleases regarding ihe liquor business, and that there was Do violation ct tho United ststss constitution when the law was passed and enforced. Mfr Harrison had rais. ed the point that 1t infringed on his rights as United States citizen.
