THE BETTER WAY
IS IMPEACHMENT
Presidents Plan to Improve
Our Judiciary.
WHY HE OPPOSES RECALL
He Wouio Give Our Judges Greater
Power anc Would Hold
Them Severely
Responsible.

St. Louis.-The recall of judges by
impeachment and not by election was
advocated by President Taft, who
asked for a change in the system OF
legal procedure which would give
the judges more power than they
have now, and then hold them re-
sponsible for their conduct.
His plea for giving more power tc
the judges and for reform in the sys-
TEN of judicial procedure. was made
at luncheon of the City Club, and
was one of those impromptu and VI
expected addresses in which the
president is at his best.
IF there is one thing concerning
which / have a positive opinion, ne
said, 1T is that there should be a
reform in the judicial procedure tha;
will expedite justice. l know OF
nothing that is more urgently need
ed than that
Trial by jury is good thing, for
it brings into the administration o:
justice the people, and in popular
government the people should be
called in whenever possible. But in
a trial by jury the jury should ss
inspected by a Judge, who should at
all times hold the courtroom under
his control and not be swayed by
what the prosecuting attorney or the
counsel for the defense may say.
Yet the movement in all legislation
is to take away from judges al! ;he
power We had and which We copied
from the English system.
There is movement now for the
recall of the judges. and l know that
the movement has basis, in that
the court is not fulfilling its mission
as It should but the remedy is not
10 kill the court Remove the judges
If you will, but do it in the orderly
way by Impeachment"
