Colubus, Ohio, Feb. 21.-Politic-
ians from all over the state of Ohio
came to Columbus to hear Colonel
Roosevelt express his views on mat
tiers pending in the constitutional
convention, which have been q sub
ject of political debate throughout
the state. Interest in his speech was
heightened by the fact that Governor
Harmon, few days ago, outlined his
opinions to the same convention. On
his way from Columbus to New York
this evening Col. Roosevelt will make
a ten-minute stop at Cleveland, at
which place he will address a crowd
that is expected to greet him.

Columbus. Ohio, Feb, 21.-"Big
business, the fitness of the Ameri-
can people for safe government, the
recall of judges, and praise for the
progressive legislation in Wisconsin
Instituted and furthered by Senator
Robert NJ La Toilette when he was
governor were topics discussed by
Theodore Roosevelt here today, be-
fore the Constitutional Convention.
Col. Roosevelt chose as his subject,
"A Charter of Democracy"
OF what he termed "big business"
Col Roosevelt had this to say:
1.-THE antitrust law does good in
solar as it can be invoked against
combinations which really are mono
poles or which restrict production
or which artificially raise prices.
But insofar as its workings are un-
certain or as it threatens corporations
which have not been guilty of anti
social conduct it does harm. There
should be a fixed governmental pol
icy which shall clearly define and
punish wrong doing and give in adj
vance full information to any man
as to just what he can and just what
he can not legally and properly do.
AS to the fitness of American peo-
pie for self-government, Col. Roose-
welt said:
Many eminent lawyers believe
that the American people are not
fitted for popular government and
that it is necessary to keep the judi
iciary independent of the majority
of the people, l take absolute issue
with all those vino hold such po-
sitiion."
OF the recall of judges, he said:
THE question is one of expediency
merely. Each community has the
right to try experiment for itself in
whatever shape it pleases. l don't
believe in adopting the recall save
as last resort when it has become
clearly evident tina. no other course
will achieve the desired result
Senator La Toilette was mentioned
but once, as follows:
Following Senator La Toilette, a
number of practical workers and
thinkers in Wisconsin have turned
that state into an experimental lab
oratory of wise governmental action

states case-the allegation of Bert H.
Franklin that barrow had given him the
money for the attempted corruption of

the morning of the alleged bribery ex-
pose and of tending to impeaeh Frank
Inns veracity.
The mystery of the telephone message
which called barrow to the vicinity of
the arrest of Franklin was cleared by
Charles o. Hawley, former fire COM
missioner of Los Angeles. Hawley testi-
fled he had called barrow on the tele-
phone and asked him to come to the So
ciaIist campaign headquarters for po=
litical conference with himself and job

Hawly acknowledged he had been in
terested in damage suit brought against
the Los Angeles Times by the families
of the men killed in the blowing up of
the Times building.
