against the high protective tariff sys-
tenn and what lie terms the outrageous
Paine Aldrich tariff law, and perhaps
1t Is unnecessary to add that these
are no new convictions on Governor

lifetime Of study and observation of
political affairs, of life spent In train

the opportunity has just come to him.
In his home life the governor Is su-

his own case before the judge, simply
to show that he has case and the
nature of it. The defendant does not
plead. but If he can disputes the facts.
If the judge considers there is no case
he dismisses the plaintiff. In the con-
trary case he appoints an assessor out
of dozen chosen yearly of the towns
reputed merchants to decide upon 1t.
The following day the assessor calls
the parties to his room in the court. He
hears each of them separately without
any lawyers. Within fifteen minutes
he gathers their documents and dis
misses them. Two or three days later
