, eral j .dges to a recall.


 Thomas Jefferson. that sage of democrats, had some very definite ideas about federal judges. for in writing to Mir. Ritchie. he said:
 The judiciary of the United States is a subtle corps. of sappers constant ly working underground 10 undermine the foundation Of our cOnfederated fabric"
 Again Mir. Jefferson. in writing to Mir. jarvis, speaking of 'he judges, declared.
 They Cfederai judgcs) have with others the same passion for party power and the privileges of their corps. Their maxim is 'it is the busi- ness of a good judge to extend his ju-isdicJior,' and their power IS the more dangerous as they are in office for life and not responsible as the ether functionaries are to elective control"
 R5dicalism.
 There is a strong suspicion as to the true progressi' cness of those pull, lie men, who, during political cam- paigns, promise 10 serve the people. lut who. after election, whenever any proposal is made for the real benefit of '1e people. cry out that sucL attempt is "paternalism," or socialism, or
 'radicalism" but what is called ''rau- icalism" of this day is derived from the Latin word root. and radicalism simply means going to Che 900. Of tHn2s.
 A real progressive will never be frightened from c high purpose The calling Of har thames did not fright en John Hampden when he arraigned his king 10 the unconstitutional eXac- tions of ship-money, and Thomas Jef- ferson did not permit himself to en- certain polite doubts when he de- Clared all men to be created free and equal. David LloytIGeorge. British Chancellor of the exchequeT, was fu- riosly denounced when in 1909 he introduced his budget The lords called him a radical. Worse than that, they called him thief. When he attempted to pass the graduated income tax and the graduated inheritance tax theg said these were new and revolutionary measures, but they forgot that, in the same year France raised more than I50. 100000 from these two sources. LIoyd-George also included a pension system to save the working men of his land rom the bitterness of want in their old age. and a sys tem for compulsory insurance for workinPmen. and the lords were i'm mediately alarmed. They said there were revolutionary and radical and they forgot that when iron-handed Bis mark was building anew the German empire, one Of the first things ne did was to organize a plan to insure the workin2men and their families against those mistortuues so frequently met in the hves of wOrkmen.
 So far as the passage of humane and beneficial legislation fer the common people is involved, we are today one Of the most backward nal tons of the earth and certainly the most backward of the civilized nations of this globe The progressiveness Of the nation is only the advancing civ ihzation of the rest of the world.
 Abolition Commerce Court.
 The Commerce court is an dnnec- essary tribunal
 The Interstate Commerce com mission. as now constituted, consists O. live lawyers and two railroad and economic experts. The legal members ffN NItli tOEE VNlAtANN nav ffN' FAtAN experts, while th purely eXreTt mem bers have m like manner become good lawyers within the held of railroad litigation. When such a body has fair ly and fully investigated a matter within it's jurisdiction. 1t Is absurd in oil cases and rank injustice in many as require it's action to run the gaunt- let of two courts before the questions are finally decided
 Moreover, the law shoud Se changed. to the end that any and all findings, judgments, decrees and rates fixed by the interstate commerce | shall remain in full force and effect until after a full and final hearing Ey the court of the last re- sort, to the end that the people in- stead of the railroads shall have the l benefit of the laws delay.
 Sherman Antitrust Law
 The mere imposition of mes upon trust magnates who violate the Sher- | man Antitrust law is little more than 1 a farce.
 Trusts are composed of property and persons. Laws in this respect can ] do no more than tO imprison persons. 1 and confiscate p--es-~-ty. The Sherman Antitrust law authorizes both os these | Many statesmen believe l
