of keeping the liver and thirty feet of

time to place him at the head of the
new party he would not attempt as he
had done in Chicago to force himself
upon the ticket.
When the true representatives" of
the people, as Roosevelt terms them,
return to their constituents-they will
find that by their action in Chicago
that they misrepresented the people
who sent them there, that there is no
desire nor intention upon the part of
republicans generally to give a new
party organized solely to crafty Roose
velt's thirst for power, any support and
thereby assist in ademocratic victory in
November and a call for such a con-
vention in August will secure less
delegates than greeted the colonel at

party is greater to republi-

PLATFORM OF THE
TAFT CONVENTION
Principles on Which President
viii Seek Re- Election.

Chicago, June 22.-The platform
adopted by the Republican national
convention reaffirms belief in the prin-
! ciples OF a protective tariff, calling for
the maintenance OF import duties high
enough while yielding a sufficient rev.
enue to protect adequately American
industries and wages" 1t states that
some tariffs at present are too high
and asks for their reduction. II en-
dorses the tariff commission and con-
dennis the Democratic party for its
tariff bills of the past session.
The platform opposes the recall of
judges as unnecessary and unwise."
but calls for legislation to expedite
court actions and to provide means to
simplify the process of removing a
derelict judge from office.
1t speaks for keeping up the navy,
for encouragement of a merchant ma.
rine and establishment Of a parcels
post. 1t endorses the policy of inter
national arbitration in j%ustiiable con
troversies.
1t favors "a liberal policy toward
Alaska" to promote development of
its resources, standing for opening of
the coal lands uRder a law that will
prevent monopoly.
II approves action of the president
and congress on the Russian treaty
case to secure a treaty recognizing the
absolute right of expatriation."
1t calls for continuation of conserva-
ton policy and for a scientific inquiry
into the causes increasing the cost of
living.
1t favors legislation amending anti
trust act that will define as criminal
offenses those specific acts that uni
formly work attempts to restrain and
monopolize trade"

LIBERTY ON CONDITIONS

Elihu Root, in his speech to the repub-
liean convention, uttered one paragraph
which should engage the consideration
of every citizen in this time of impati-
ence with forms and limitations.
Mr.. Root quoted lucid and admirable
statements of Chief Justice Marshall
and Abraham Lincoln to the same effect
as his own deliverance. But if his deliv-
france is less epigramatic and memoir
able than theirs, his is more concretely
applicable to our particular present
emergency. This is what he said:
However wise, however able, how
eyer patriotic, a congress or an execu-
tive may be, however convinced they
may be be that the doing of a particu-
lar thing would be beneficial to the pub
lie If that thing be done by usurping
the powers confided to another depart
ment or another officer, it but opens the
door for the destruction of liberty. The
door opened for the patriotic and we'll
meaning to exercise power not con-
ferred upon them by law is the door
opened also to the ~self-seeking and
ambitious. There can be no free govern
ment in which official power is not linn
tied, and the limitations upon official
power a be preserved only by vigor-
ously insisting upon their observance"
Mr.. Root quoted John Marshall: ITO
purpose are powers limited, and
to what purpose is that limitation COM
to writing, if these limitations
may, at any time, be passed by those
intended to be restrained"
He quoted also from Abraham Lin.
first inaugural address: "a major
ity held in restraint by constitutional
checks and limitations, and always chang
ing easily with deliberate changes of
opinion and sentiment, is the only
true sovereign of a free people. Who
ever rejects it, does of necessity fly to
anarchy or depotism."
Every year our people choose between
anarchy or despotism on the one hand,
and a government, not of persons, but
of law, on the other. Our citizens are
continually making that choice, just as
the moral man is continually choosing
between good and evil.
The conditions of liberty are well set
forth by Senator Root. Even liberty
has its conditions. Without conditions,
liberty would be chaos. : Minneapolis
