TAFT AS A PROGRESSIVE.

ASK the average progressive poll
tician what he understands by a pro
gressiNe" political program and in all
likelihood he Will say that he believes
In the initiative and referendum, tho
recall and the direct election of sem
ators. lie may also add something
vague about tariff reform and curb
ing tho trusts" but when he enters
this field of political discovery he Is
not sure of himself says the Kansas
City Journal.
The hide-bound follower OF LaFol-
lette Will not admit that there can
be any brand of ''progressivenoss'
within the Republican party that has
not been exploited by the "insur-
gents" But the citizen with an alb
solutely fair mind ought to eXain'ue
the situation for himself and then
pass Judgment. Is not President Taft,
after all, the real "progressiVe?' In
other words, has he not espoused the
kind of progress that brings results
In all of his messages Mr.. Taft has
sought to do things. IT was under
his administration that the first So
rious effort to enforce the Sherman
antitrust law was made, and today
the department Of justice can point
to a list of victims which includes
such big game as the Standard OIL
company, the tobacco trust, the steel
trust, the sugar trust and probably
the big packing companies. Could
any real progressive" do more than
has been done along this line? There
is today firmly established in this
country a system Of postal savnss
banks. This was achieved under tho
Taft administration. For the first
time the postal department Of the
government has shown balance to
it's credit. Is this not true progress
siveness?'
President Taft has been a sincere
advocate of the federal ciyil service,
and has consistently carried out this
idea in all departments. Where an
employe of the government has PROV
en- capable he has been retained Ia
his position regardless OF his politics
The president has put the consular
service on a civil service basis and
has made 1t an attractive career FOR
American young men. The president
has negotiated var.ous peace treaties
looking toward world peace, lie tr'cl
to secure reciprocity treaty with
Canada which would have opened an
enlarged market for American goods.
Mr.. Taft has been an earnest advo-
cate Of employers liability legislation,
and he would reorrnnize the rules of
practice in order to expedite justice
in the courts.
What is real "progressiyenss" II 1t
is not the kind that President Tart
stands for? The initiative. referen-
dunn and recall are purely soclalistc
measures. experimental and danger
Gus. They are not soundly 'progres-
sive" at all. Better a scientific re-
vision of the tariff such as the presi-
dent has provided for than a continu-
alton Of the iniqultous tariff tinker
ing to which politicians have given
their attention for decades. The pres
ident has taken advanced ground on
many great questions, but he has done
10 in such a quiet and business-like
way that the country scarcely realizes
the sum Of his services. One Of the
original civil service papers says III
the recommendations which President
Taft now makes were carried out. we

MarSherita of Italy Buys Carducci's

After King Humberts tragic death,
Queen Margherita anxiously searched
for secluded spot where she would
be left entirely unmolested and where
at the same time the surrounding
country would divert her mind from
her great sorrow.
Gressoney was finally chosen, first

Queen Margherita had her court of
few select friends rule almost des-
positcally. till now the whole valley
is the summer abode of that conser-
vative aristocracy still devoted to the
old queen.
It was here that Carducci, the
greatest of modern poets, spent for
years his summers. together with a
coterie of dramatists, painters and
statesmen who were in favor dur
ing King Humbert's reign
This for a time seemed to confirm
the gossip that Carduccis affection
for the queen was more than of a
poetic and sentimental nature and to-
day there is quite a revival of this
talk, as the queen. after buying the
