went further Wednesday toward de-
nning his ideas on Progressive princi-
pies than he has since he became the
Democratic presidential nominee.
In speech that was received with
enthusiasm at Hartford and another at
New Haven the governor explained
that he favored the initiative and the
referendum. as we'll as the recall of
administrative officers, but that he
was unqualiidely opposed to the re-
call Of the judiciary.
After paying tribute to the character
Of the majority of the men In the
United States senate the governor
said:
1T would be painful to repeat to
seats have been bought In the United
States senate, and you know, as the
whole people of the United States
know, that little handful of senators
who have held the balance of power
have been able to defeat programmes
Of reform upon which the whole coun-
try had set its heart"
The Direct Primary.
The governor spoke Of the effective
ness of the direct primary, especially
in New Jersey and turning from the
question of popular election of the
United States senators, said:
Lets get q step deeper. hope
you won't any of you think that
am going too far in even mentioning
In your presence those extreme doc
trines Of the initiative, the referen-
dunn and the recall. It is the last
word that makes most men shrink.
Intent Of Initiative.
1.-THE initiative is means of recap
turing the seat Of legislative authority
on behalf Of the people themselves.
The referendum is means of seeing
to it that unrepresentative measures
are not put upon the statute books, but
are checked by being submitted to the
vote of the people. When you come
to. the recall, the principle is that If
an administrative officer, for we will
begin with an administrative officer, is
corrupt, or SO unwise as to be doing
things that are likely to lead to all
sorts Of mischief, in the future it will
be possible by a sedate and slow pro.
cess prescribed by the law, to get rid
of that officer before the end of his
term. don't see how any man who is
grounded in the traditions of Ameri
can affairs, particularly as they derive
their origin from New England, can
find any valid objection to the recall
Of administrative officers.
1T is another matter when it comes
to the judiciary. myself have never
been in favor Of the recall of judges
Not that some Judges have not de
served to be recalled-that is not the
point, but because that is treating the
symptoms instead of the disease. The
disease lies deeper and some times il
is very, very virulent and very dan
gerous. Gentlemen, there have beer
courts in the United States that were
controlled by private interests. There
e have been supreme courts in oul
states at which men without privilege
could not get justice. There have
been corrupt judges; there have beer
controlled judges. There have beer
Judges who acted as other mems serv
ants and not as servants of the pub
lie. And there can be no moral oh
lection to removing such men from
public service"
