Addresses Crowd at Minneapolis.
At Minneapolis the president dis
cussed trusts, international peace and
railroad regulation before large au-
dience. After an Introduction by Cyrus
Northrop, in which the former presi-
dent of the University of Minnesota
and former instructor of Mr.. Taft pic
tured the president as the greatest of
because of his work in
behalf of universal peace, the pres.
dent made an address of an hour in
which he discussed in detail the tariff
question, the control of trusts and the
railroad regulation question.
The discussion of the trust question
gave the president occasion to repeat
MS answer to the charge that he had
set up the supreme court with the
understanding that the judges would
the antitrust act and in
more vigorous language than before.
"Of course" he said, there is not |
he slightest foundation in such a
tatement. OF course, l never had an
understanding with any judge l ever
ut upon the bench upon any sub iect.
And the man, or the men, who
lake sucn charge lightly reveal the
act that they have no realization Of
he iniquity, the corruption that would
e involved in such an understanding"

The reception given President Taft
t st. Paul was most cordial and he
i'd not disarpoint his audience in the
ak he gave them.
In clear cut, simple sentences he dis
used the peace treaties which he
as negotiated with England and
rance, explained their every detail
nd showed how they would be an ex-
mple to other nations which would
e an important step in avoiding
loody conflicts between nations.
The president was in happy mood.
he speech in substance was one he
ad given before, but his many happy
EXPRESSIONS and his ridicule of some
the arguments against certain pro-
lslons OF the treaties brought many
round Of laughter and applause from
is audience.

lent spoke, has seen just as large
crowd few times before, but
0 larger. For the Auditorium was

lied last year when the president ,
poke at the conservation congress
