 In other words Johnstone now finds himself S4 800 in when he thought he was atl out, or he gets enough to pay for his new building and suddenly dis covers himself in the interesting role of one about to make a comfortable little homestake.

The Recall for Judges.

1t is said that the provision in the
state constitution of Arizona which
has caused President Taft to disap-
prove the admission of>the territory as
a state is that which provides for the
recall of judges.
I There is an old adage that, NO
rougue e'er felt the halter draw with
good opinion OF the law" and likewise
/ it may be said that no judge need fear
/ the recall whose decisions are always
guided by law and Justice.
/ It is not likely that any just judge
Will ever be relieved of his office sim
ply because there are some people who
are aggrieved by his finding in some
case. But after all that is not the real
question at stake. The territory of
Arizona has a right to make its own
constitution. subject only to the limi-
tatiOns of the constitution of the
United States. There is nothing in the
latter instrument to which the ppovis-
ion for a recall in the Arizona consti-
tuition can be repugnant. What bust
ness. then, is it of the president of the
United States whether or not that
provision is embodied in the funda-
mental law of the new states? If it
is injurious, Arizona and Arizona alone
will have TO bear the consequences.
There ought to be inculcated in the
public respect for the courts, but
there is no provision of the law, moral
or statute, which exempts judges of
courts. more than other officers of the
law, from the penalties of their own
acts. This country has been most
fortunate in the fact that the great
majority of it's judicial officers have
been men of upright character and
good judgment, but they are not all of
that kind and the man who claims that
they are is foolish.
There is no reason why an unjust
and venal judge should not be subject
10 the recall any more than the minor
official who neglects his duty

The Steel Market.

Steel and iron are the barometers
of business. The New York Central
railroad has sent thrill of joy through
the steel trade by giving out contracts
fer 176,75O tons of rails. which is a
good deal in excess of the amount it
was understood to be in the market
for. Much of the rails will be made by
open hearth process. for which the
regular price is $40 ton, and part
will consist of ferru-titanium rails. for
which II IS understood that the com
pany will pay $2s plus the cost of
making the new alloy.
Two large railroad systems now
have made contracts for exceptionally
large Quantities of rails, and third
group, the Hartman lines, recently
gave one of the largest orders for loco
motives that the trade has known.

Nothing for Roosevelt.

This National Progressive league
that has just been organized in Wash
ington is an unique and wonderful
body. The New York World says that
il is misnamed and ought to have been
called the Roosevelt Third Term
league. The platform is of his making
and the officers of his choosing and il
is of significance that the five planks
OF the platform which were distinctly
credited 10 Roosevelt are of no partic-
ular novelty nor importance because
they relate 10 purely state affairs For
instance, there are the initiative, ref
erendum and recall. the direct election
of delegates to national conventions
with the opportunity for the voter to
express his choice for president: di-
rect primaries: the election OF United
States senator by the people, and
corrupt practices act.
These are all If not entirely, mainly
subjects for state legislation, and with
which congress has little or nothing TO
do. In the matter of corrupt practices
congress has been little in advance OF
the states in passing acts 10 prohibit
corporations from contributing TO cam
paign expenses and providing for pub
licity of contributions and expendi-
lures. II, as the World SAYS. the new
league Is simply an organization to
boost Roosevelt for third term. il is
taking a peculiarly Rooseveltian meth
cd of doing it by throwing dust in the
eyes OF the people and making a big
noise TO distract attention. The plat
form reads well and it sounds very
patriotic. but It means nothing. Vox
