HARLANs SUCCESSOR.

In discussing the probable sue
cessor to the late Judge Harlan up
on the supreme bench the Washing.
ton Star says:
Others urged that lawyer OF pro
gressive tendencies might be select
ed, just as Justice Lamar was ap-
pointed at the request of southern
democrats, who felt they should be
given larger representation on the
bench. In this connection Senator
Kenyon, OF Iowa, and Senator Bo.
rah, of Idaho, were mentioned.
The Freeman-Tribune hopes Sem
ator Kenyon will remain in the po-
sition he now occupies. Men OF his
character and Independence are
needed in the United States senate,
Judge Kenyon has demonstrated his
ability as q lawyer and needs but

TAKING NOTICE.

The Wall Street Journal is badly
.'scart'' over the LaFollette move
ment and is already admitting that
the nomination Of Taft Is in doubt.
This is confession Of weakness On
the part Of the president from an
unexpected quarter. The Wall
Street Journal 10 a very conserva-
tive paper, though not what its
name might imply. It IL not an or
gan Of the wealthy classes, but
rather a journal that seeks to get
at the truth OF public questions Is
the truth appears In Wall Street,
Here is q significant paragraph
from recent issue Of the Journal:
The present feeling is one Of dis
heartened disgust, but the shoulder
ing discomfort can easily be famed
into hot flame before the presi-
Dental election. It b dimcult to
think Of any other republican nom
nation than that of Mr.. Taft, but
such an event Is now far from
certain and has become steadily less
probable with every speech delivei-
ed in an ill-advised and unnecessary
speaking tour.

q REACTIONARY VIEW.

Cedar Rapids Republican: Senator
Kenyon in recent statement show.
ed that President Taft had prose.
cuted more trusts than President
Roosevelt. But to our mind that II
NO recommendation 1t Ill. II may
be that the trust busters under Taft
are OVERRIDING the business, seeking
thereby to win favor with the howl
ing dervishes Of American politics.
It Is possible for the president and
his legal aids to overdo even = good
thing. Attorney General Wicker
sham. an ex-railroad lawyer and
trust lawyer. 10 trying to prove that
he il from under those old influences
and he may be OVERRIDING the busi-
ness. To vindicate himself he may
ruin the business of the country.
The attorney general certainly has
long list Of blunders to his dis
credit. What Senator Kenyon sets
down as q mark Of merit some may
regard a. mark Of demerit.
It has become the fashion and the
habit to denounce the big corpora
lions, but the big corporations. In
our opinion, have helped to make
this country big In the markets Of
the world. American oil and Amer
lean. steel have been sold in all parts
Of the world. We have become the
great exporting nation Of the world.

and Invariably leads in the right

win or not they will have the satis-

DEFEAT NOT CcURTED BUT.
The Webster City Freeman-Trib-
une has announced that 1t will sup-
port the presidential aspirations Of
Senator Robert n. LaFollette Of
Wisconsin. It believes that he II the
logical leader Of progressive repub-
licans who are opposed to the nomi-
nation OF President Taft and be-
lieves that he can carry the state In
"a primary. The Freeman-Tribune
Is one Of the most influential papers
in the state and it, decision to sup
port LaFollette will add much
strength to his campaign. The sit
uation looks hopeless. however.
Very few believe that LaFoliette
can be nominated. Taft seems to
have the inside track and every
move that tends to embarrass him
will leave the party Just that much
worse on. The Record Is willing to
admit that the president IL deserv-
ing OF very little encouragement
from the progressive wing Of the
party, but much may happen within
the next year. Cedar Falls Record.
The Freeman-Tribune is not
counting defeat. but II It were abso-
lutely certain that Robert NJ. LaFol-
lette could not carry state in the
union for the nomination It would
be for him just the same now that
Us is the recognized candidate OF
the progressive republicans Of the
nation. The Freeman-T Tribune has
been part Of the progressive move
ment ever since its inception and It
believes the principles represented
by such men as LaFollette. Cum
Minis. Roosevelt and others OF that
character are right. and being right,
are imperishable. II is not q ques-
ton Of the success Of LaFollette In
this campaign. It is question OF
making q hight for the things in
which We believe. The Freeman
Tribune IL not inclined to question
the motives Of progressive republic
cans who feel that the LaFollette
movement Il ill-timed and PERHAPS
: mistake. but for itself It can say
that It h in hearty sympathy with
the work Of the recent Chicago con-
ference and 10 ready to stand back
Of the great Wisconsin leader
though It be the only paper in the
state standing there.
