TAFT TO BE REELECTED.

President Taft, in prepared in
terview issued recently, declared that
his recent claims of strength were
entitled to respect. He repeated that
he believed he would be elected and
gave his reasons for denying that
he had been over-sanguine. He
analized the political situation as he
saw it, maintaining that the regular
Republicans would carry the solid
East and hold enough of the central
western states to win in the coming
election.
To-day, with the election still one
month away, the Republican party
finds itself with a strengthened
hold on the solid east, having routed
the third term party in Vermont,
and the Democratic party in Maine.
The third term leaders recently con-
ceded that the regulars would pick
the state of Utah out of the solid
Chairman Hilles and others recently
in the West, President Taft believes
that he will carry Michigan, Wash
ington, Idaho and Wyoming. The
political situation at present is very
complex and it is doubtful if any OF
the leaders of either party have the
situation in hand. Many politicians
in Middle Western States who are
running for state Offices, although
they are Progressives at heart, are
loath to break away from the old
party for to have their name on the
regular ballot would be an advant-
age. The party is undoubtedly di-
yided and to quote from Lincoln,
United we stand; divided we fall, }"
it should be considered by every true
Republican before November

1t will be noted that this prohibit
ton is not against the destruction of
the freedom of the press, but the
"abridgement" of the freedom of the
press. If the Federal Government
had any general power, under the
pretence of regulating the mails, to
regulate journalism, can it abridge
the freedom of the press by prohibit
ing the publication of a newspaper
unless the owner will publish the fact
of such ownership and the extent of
its circulation? While it is not nee
essary to express an opinion upon
this point, it is certainly open to dis
cussion whether the right of publica-
ton can thus be abridged.
For the reasons given / am OF
opinion that the law as a whole is
unconstitutional and void and am
confident that If the question were
tested the District Court of the
United States, or in any event the
Supreme Court of the United States,
would so decide. Respectfully sub
mitted.

THE RECALL OF PRESIDENTS.

Colonel Roosevelt now proposes
that presidents of the United States
shall be subject to the recall. He
advocated this theory few days ago
in one of his campaign speeches in
the far west His proposition is that
If the president fails to satisfy GER
tain number of citizens in the con-
duct of his office, those who are dis
satisfied may have a vote of the en-
tire people to say whether or not
he shall be summarily ousted.
This is the reductio ad absurdum
of the principle of the recall. When
the Colonel advocated this theory as
applied to elective municipal officers,
many agreed with him, although the
system is open to grave objections
and has not worked we'll where it
has been tried. When he advanced
a step farther and advocated the re-
call of judges, the proposition met
with stern opposition on the part of
most thinking people. The dangers
involved in it to rights and liberty
are too grave and apparent. The
Citizen has already discussed them.
And when the Colonel proposed still
further to tear down the barrier of
law and order by adopting the recall
of judicial decisions, he was met
with a storm of protest from all who
recognize that only by maintaining
the integrity of the courts can the
rights of the people be secured,
Now, as a fitting and consistent eli
max, he proposes to apply the recall
TO presidents of the United States.
If the theory were not absurd it
would be revolutionary and anar-
chistic. 1t requires no great keen
ness of vision to foresee the gov
ernmental wreck to which this ma
tion would be brought if presidents
were put to the hazard of being GUST
ed from their Offices whenever they
should say or do thing that might

STEALING OUR MARKETS.

A train load of apples from the
Pacific coast, state of Washington,
arrived in New York last week, to
be transhipped to Brazil. AS we
have said many times, Atlantic slope
apples are far superior to those
grown on the Pacific slope, in point
of flavor, but the Pacific apples beat
us for regularity of size and coloring.
More attention is paid to their culti-
vation and gathering, and they go to
market wrapped like oranges. Ger
tainly our Pennsylvania farmers
should be able to sell apples for ex-
port. But the Brazilians will never
buy apples shaken from the trees,
bruised on one side, and irregular in
shape and color.

DEPARTMENT OF WHARVES AND
DOCKS, PHILADELPHIA.

In his annual Fall message to
Philadelphia councils last Thursday,
Mayor Blankenburg recommended
some radical changes in the system of
taxation in that city. In attempting
to solve the financial problem, which
has been the bugaboo of every ad-
ministration since the adoption of
Philadelphia present charter,
known as the Bullitt Bill, Mr.. Blank
enburg has presented plan so
broad, so new in Pennsylvania, so
far off the beaten track of native
utra-conservatism, that doubtless it
arouse much opposition, perhaps en-
gender some antagonism. Any criti-
cism that is to be just, however, must
be weighed against the fact that the
City of Philadelphia must have many
millions of dollars at an early date
if improvements much needed are to
be had. And the program outlined
by Mayor Blankenburg will, if car
ried out, increase the annual reve-
nues of the city by about four and a
half millions of dollars and add $S4,-
100000 to the municipal borrowing
capacity.
The proposition is one of interest
throughout Pennsylvania for several
reasons. In the first place, some of
its features require State legislation.
Secondly, if the plan is put into oper-
alton it may become the basis by
which second and third class cities
can alter their taxation methods to
procure more funds for permanent
improvements. Most important of all
to Pennsylvania at large, Mayor
Blankenburg purposes 20 use at least
500, 200, perhaps $25, 100000.
of the increased borrowing capacity
for immediate port development.
Briefly, it is proposed to get in
creased revenues from the following
sources through an equalization of
real estate assessment; by taxing the
corporations; by an occupation tax,
household furniture tax, motor
car tax and tax on all overhanging
signs. In addition it is suggested
that the city should impose a charge
for all vaults under streets, and that
more adequate rentals should be pro-
cured from conduits and other city
property. The first two changes, it is
estimated, would net the city $2,-
600, 900 additional income each year.
All persons owning less than $500
worth of furniture would be exempt
from that tax, and the proposed oc-
cupation tax would replace the pres
ent poll tax levied upon non-proper-
ty-owning voters. 1t is figured that
these two taxes would bring an addi-
tional 100000 into the city treas
ury each year.
