PRESIDENT TAFT SPEAKS
AGAINST THE RECALL.
Honor OF Americans He Believes Will
Come To Aid OF People And Save
Them From This "NOstrum."

New York, May 13.-President Taft
came out publicly tonight against
the recall of the judiciary. In a
speech before a conference for re-
form of criminal law procedure the
president made his attitude plain.
Most of his speech was devoted to
a comparison, highly unfavorable to
this country of the judiciary systems
of Great Britain and the United
States. He lamented the tendency
manifested in England, but more
particularly in this country, to put
limitations on the power of the judge.
"And now" he said, mot content
with reducing the position of the
judge to one seemingly like that of
moderator of religious assembly or
presiding officer in a political con-
vention, the judge is to be made still
less important and be put still more
on trial and assume still more the
character of a defendant by a pro-
vision of law under which, if his
rulings and the conduct of his court
do not suit small percentage of the
electors of his district, he may be
compelled to submit the question of
his continuance on the bench during
the term for which he was elected to
an election for a recall, in which the
reason of his recall shall be included
in 200 words and his defense thereto
shall be equally brief.
sit is hardly to be said of this pro-
posed change that If adopted it would
give him greater authority or power
for usefulness or constitute a reform
in the enforcement of criminal law in
this country. 1t certainly would not
diminish the power or irresponsibility
of counsel for the defendant.
"Let US hope that the strong sense
of honor of the American people
which has so often saved them from
the dangers of demagoguery will not
be lacking in respect to this
'nostrum.'
"What 1 believe to be an unfounded
fear of judicial tyranny and an I'M
reasonable distrust of judges have led
to statutory limitations upon their
power In the conduct OF criminal
trials which made trial by jury in
this country, and especially in west
eru states, an entirely different IN
stitution from what was understood
at the time of the adoption of our
legislation.
In many states judges are not per-
United to comment upon the facts at
all. They are not even allowed to
charge the jury after the arguments
of counsel, but they are required to
submit written charges upon abtruse
questions of law with no opportunity
to apply the principles concertedly
to the facts of the case.
1.-THE restraint that Judge in the
course of trial imposes upon the
manner and conduct of counsel in an
English court is thus wholly wanting,
with the result that there seems to
have been a substantial change in
the code of professional ethics govern
ing counsel and in the extremes to
which counsel for defense of clients
seemto think it entirely proper for
them to 60. Their conduct makes
neither for the dignity of the court,
for the elevation of the ethics of the
bar nor for expediting criminal pro-
cedure or for the reasonable punish
ment of crime.

The ADVANCE would like to gent.
ly remind the Winfield Irrepressi-
bic that IL always has been against
the political machine and bossism.
The editor of the ADVANCE has
been interested in couple of state
conventions and he knows that it
does not make one feel like hustling
to any great extent for a party II at
per mits few bosses to dictate the
nominations for the entire state.
This is what defeated the Republi-
cans i'll this state at the last gener-
al election; but the defeat has open
ed the eyes of the party workers
and they do not propose to stand
for machine in The future. The
factions must unite and resolve to
act fairly or defeat will continue to
be with the party.
We are glad to notice that Kan
awha county Republicans have set
the example by organizing a Repub-
lican club and that all the factions
have come together in an organiza-
ton that will be felt for the good
OF the party throughout the state.

Government Supervision of Rail
roads.

Pleading with the Democratic
congress to make the most of its
opportunity to do more for the
common people and less for the
financial interests and declaring
that unless this course is followed
it will be back to the woods with
the Democracy two years hence,
Ohio G. Barber, of Akron, Ohio,
millionaire match trust head, invites
congressional attention to the rail.
road problem. The present rail.
road organization, he says, is the
greatest swindle ever perpetrated
upon civilized people.
Mr.. Barber adv coates govern
ment supervision and immdiate
steps toward a physical valuation
of all railroad property. He pro
poses to have the government buy
all the railroads for the people
with perpetual 3.per-cent bonds, tc
be issued in denominations sufli-
GENTLY small to make them at.
tractive to the wage earners as an
Investment. "These bonds" he
explains, would be their certif.
cate of ownership in the govern
ment."
Using the reports of the Inter
state Commerce Commission and
the Secretary of the Treasury Mr..
Barber strikingly exploits the enor.
nifty OF present railroad earnings,
which last year more than trebled
the interest-bearing national debt
and were IN excess of four times the
ordinary expenses of the govern.
ment. lie declares that approx
mately 100000 people, stockhold-
ers IN these roads, are robbIno

multi-millionaires are manipulating
the roads and claiming the lion's
share Of the profits.

Fewer Desertions.

From the St Louis Times
The somewhat surprising statement is
made that assertions from the United
States Army have decreased so per cent
during the past two years. and one Of the
army authorities Is of the opinion thai
this change has been wrought by the
severity of the punishment melted out to
deserters.
Perhaps there is another reason why
men who take an oath to serve their
country are taking a more and more
serious view Of their responsibility. :
Requirements for entering the army are
being made more exacttng as time passes
Prejudice against army service as en-
listed men is happily diminishing. Despite
the number of excellent men who got into
the service in the old days, there were
also many men enlisted who could not
have stood such tests as are maintained
today.
We are not inclined to believe that pun
ishments make the soldier true to his
trust. We believe that the average. OF
the men in the service is higher. and that
when they have undertaken to perform q
task they have sufficient character not to
quit.

He will offer the socialist remedy to

ton Of railways, express companies, coal
mines. telegraphs and telephones. and

willing, hut cannot find work.

PARK VIEW CITIZENS
|NDORSE ORGANIC ACT
Association Declares for the
HaIf-and-HaI Plan of
Appropriations.

So firm is the belief of the members OF
the Park View Citizens Association tina,
the organic act of 1873 should remain un-
changed in every detail. that the organi-
zation went on record last night as op-
posing any infraction Of the law or spirit
of the act. No discussion of the resolu-
ton introduced on the subject was neces.
sary. DR.. c. B. Crane presented the
resolution, referring particularly to the
half-and-half plan Of appropriations fol
the District, and the association simply
voted quickly and unanimously in its
favor
The meeting was held in the Whitney
Avenue Christian Church. The associa.
ton decided again to urge upon the
health officer of the District the impor,
lance Of eliminating pools of water and
mud holes which the association claims
can be found on certain streets in the
Park View section. The request of the
association was ordered to be sent to the
health officer today.
Health Department Criticised.
During the discussion DR.. william c.
Woodward and his subordinates were
criticised for permitting the conditions
complained of. The statement was made
last night that former requests of the
association to have the mud holes and
pools filled up have not been successful.
and it was also said that the health off,
Ger had replied that nothing need be done
by the District to eliminate the mud holes
as the topography of the section would
furnish natural drainage. The associa-
ton also discussed the need for several
new streets on the outskirts of the Park
View section.

favorably acted upon during the meeting
