ly avoided an Interpretation of
that pledge. When asked wheth-
er the revision was to be up or
down, he said that some Of the
schedules ought to be lowered
and some raised, and, when still
further pressed for an answer;
he said that the revision would
probably be downward. When
congress met, the benefciaries
of the tariff proceeded to- pre-
pare a revision that disappoint-
ed all who had expected an
honest effort to reduce the bur-
dens upon the people, and the
president mainland a dignified
silence while his party's repre-
s~entatives in congress betrayed
the public. Towards the close
of the tariff rebate, and when it
was too late to do any good, he
expressed an opinion upon a few
items but he did not live up to
his opportunities and RESPONSE
bilities. His Republication by a
majority of his party is due
very largely to his refusal to
throw his influence upon the
consumers side of the tariff
question
But, instead Of being admon-
ished or instructed by popular
condemnation, he has used the
veto power to obstruct every eff
fort at tariff reduction. He has
given a variety of excuses. The
tariff commission has beer
made a pretext for refusing tC

Presidents Tafts vetoes.

10 is IN Itself a mild rejection
upon representative govern
ment-a relic of monarchial I'M
willingness 20 recognize the ca
pacity of the people for self gov
eminent. Kings when they
could no longer resist he de-
mand Of the people for a voice
in their own government, yield
ed grudgingly and, yielding,
sought to bolster up their de-
clining power by reserving a
veto. This reserve power of We
to, however is used with de-
creasing frequency in monarch
cal countries. 1t is only on rare
occasions that a king of the
present day would dare to inter-
pose a veto to anything that the
people really desired. Even the
veto preserved to colonial gov
errors over a subject people is
more nominal than real, and is
only employed on extraordinary
occasions and is ever the source
of discomfort. In the establish
ment of our government, we
went a step farther and quail
fled the veto of the executive.
1t is not final or conclusive. It
merely delays action, compels
reconsideration and sometimes
requires the concurrence of a
large percentage of the legisla-
tive body. 1t usually requires
two-thirds of both houses to
override the executive veto
that is the rule in the federal
government and in most Of the
states, although in some of the
states a bare majority is suffic-
lent.
Most of our presidents have
recognized that the veto power
is intended for exceptional cases
only and have used it sparingly
and only when convinced that
he measure vetoed violated
some constitutional provision.
President Taft, however, has
deemed it his duty to put his
judgment against the judgment
of congress wherever he and
congress did not agree, and that,
too, when the senate being re-
publican, no measure of a purely
partisan nature could reach him.
To make the case against his
vetoes even stronger it may be
added that several Of them have
blocked legislation since it has
become apparent that his admin
istration is unsatisfactory to
the whole of the democratic
party and to more than half of
the republican party.
One of his early vetoes was
the one which he used to delay
Arizona's entrance into the sis
terhoOd of states. The people of
that territory had by an over
majority indorsed a
constitution, written by their
representatives, containing a
provision for the recall Of ofic-
ials, including judges. President
Taft is very much opposed to
the recall of judges, so much so
that he would not permit Ari-
iona to come into the union with
that provision in its constitu-
ton. To meet his objection a
bill was drawn requiring the
people of Arizona to vote on this
specific proposition thus giving
them the right to accept it or
reject it on it's merits. Every
state in the union has the right
to do this; it can frame its con-
stitution to suit itself, and
amend it as it likes, providing,
of course, that its provisions DC
not violate the federal c~onstitu-
ton. Oregon had already adopt
ed the same provision that
Arizona had and California has
since adopted that provision

A0NNAOAA VI GNONAASA O
the elimination of the recall
provision as a condition pre-
cedent to admission. 1t is prob
ably the. first instance in which
a president put his personal opin-
ion upon an immaterial ques-
tion-for his veto, while delay
ing, could not prevent the Sc
storation of the recall provis-
ion-against the opinion Of both
houses and against the wishes
of the people of a territory
about to become a state. Such
an act upon the part Of a king
would be likely to result in the
withdrawal of the veto power,
and President Taft's use of the
veto has stimulated more dis
cussion than we have had here
tofore as to the wisdom Of per-
hitting an executive veto.
The president also vetoed a
bill abolishing the interstate
commerce court-an act for
which no reasonable excuse can
be given. We have an inter-
state commerce commission and
we have a supreme court to
which litigants can appeal. 1t
yas thought worth while to es-
tablish a special court for cases
growing out Of interstate COM
nerce but the court, either be-
cause of its personnel or for
some other reason, has proven
a great disappointment and
congress reflects an overwhelm-
ing public sentiment in demand
ing it's abolition. The president,
however, sets his judgment
against this demand and the
court must remain until its OPP
Iponents can secure a two thirds
majority in both houses or until
another executive enters the
White House.
The president also used the
veto to prevent the establish
ment of a fixed term for per-
sons in the civil service. While,
rs the head of the administra-
ton and the one in charge of
the work done by the civil SER
vice force, he can present a
stronger claim to a hearing in
the matter relating to govern
ment employees, still the repre-
Sentatives of the people in con-
gress are the ones Whc must
finally determine whether the
official term of government en-
ployees should be definite or in
definite in duration and the
president might have trusted
the people to correct the mis-
take through their representa-
tives if a change in the tenure
was found to be a mistake.
The presidents tariff vetoes
however, will cause more wide
spread criticism than the 9th
ers, because theJ affect immed-
lately a larger number and that
effect can be more easily esti-
mated in dollars. He has seen
fit to take the side of the tax
eater against the tax payer; he
has laid forcible hands on con-
gress and restrained it from
rescuing the people from griev.
Bous and long-borne burdens.
He began his campaign for
the presidential nomination by
%proclaiming himself a tariff re-
former. While adhering to the
protective principle, he admit.
ted the necessity for a revision
of the tariff in the interest Of
the consumers-using the wore
revision before it had beer
made farcical by the interpre.
tation given to it by his friends
and supporters. In the cam
paign of 1908, his platform
boldly demanded revision ant
hedged the word about will

convey the impression that tn,
revision was to be downward

excuses for staying the hand of
relief.
The presidents habit of COM
mending tariff reform in gen.
eral while he obstructs it in
each particular case where it is
attempted recalls the advice
given by a retiring agnostic to
his son who was succeeding him
in business. He told him that
as a matter of policy he should
subscribe to every church that
was to be built but that he
should fight the location and
thus delay the call for the sub
scription." The cartoonist might
with propriety represent the
president as keeping the pass
alone and with his veto for a
sword preventing a despoiled
people from attacking the tariff
barons who have been gathering
from them through iniquituous
legislation-the very tariff bar
onS who supplied the campaign
funds.
But there is some consolation
in the fact that the people also
have a veto power and can, by
Withholding their votes from
the president, terminate his
power to obstruct their will.
That they viii do it seems as
certain as anything political can
be.-Bryan's Commoner.
