 Well, I have found all the Democrats talking constitution, recall, corpora ton commission, and these baubles that they have manufactured into ar. guments to shake before the eyes of the people. Let us see how it works
 The recall. Here is judge, and we take him because he stands clean, and is man, and a voter My recall applies to them all from the voter to the president.
 Did you ever think about recall ing voter? Did you ever think that the voter is the King? And let me say to yau that not so many moons ago so7 Kings sold their votes in Phoenix at $6 per head. Think it over just minute.
 Under the constitution as it is written; as it is written, mind you; and as the Democratic party
 
 this way. That is why Mr. Taft refused to sign the constitution. He is a man who has raised family, and has the confidence of all the people, who placed about him the cloak of the highest office of trust, because he has been found upright, conscientious and reliable Now let US recall him.
 Under the constitution a ludue makes a popular or an unpopular decision The constitution does not define what he must be re- called for. We will say that he takes to graft or that his hair does not match the furniture-either one is just cause under the con- stituton, and for either one the judge may be recalled. We will say however, for the sake of arqu- n1ent that the judge is to be recall ed for! accepting money to infIu- ence a decision. Petitions are cot ten up and sent out. These peti- tions are taken out by profession al petition n1en-Who go out and act the signatures at Sc per name. The petition simply states that the judge acceoted money to influence his decision The secretary of the state issues notice-NOT TO THE MAN WHO IS TO BE RE. CALlED-rct to the iudae who is to be tried for the highest crime known to society-BUT TO the ward healers. Two opnon- ents are placed on the ballot against the judge The charge is written in POO words, and THE JUDGE IS GIVEN JUST POO WORCS in which to answer for the highest crime that can be com- m;tted before the people of organ ized society. Think of it, just 200 words. When you get home, count the nurper of words in the Lords prayer. The constitution provides that he must have majority of the vote, or he is recalled.
 Suppose when tke result is known, the votes are tied; still the judge is damned. He is recall ed although the vote is tie. Let us look at this a moment; is it fair; is 1t just?
 Now let US look at the other side moment. We will say that tramp comes to the back door and while the good wife has her back turned getting him some thing to eat, he steals handful of silVerWare and runs-he steals from the hand that fed him, and he is caught red-handed But he cannot be punished as the judge with only 200 words in his favor. He is taken before a justice of the peace, and the complaint is read, and the witnesses swear before God that the crime was commit ted. The justice finds that there is not a reasonable doubt, and he binds him over for trial, and the witnesses in the case are all sworn to tell the truth, the whole truth and nOthinu but the frIIfb The
