The Presidents Address.

President Taft made answer here to-
nigh, TO The propa ganda for the recall
Of judges and for the more recent pro-
posal for the recall of judicial deci-
sions. His topic was the judiciary
and progress He made no direct
reference to Colonel Theodore Roose-
Welt nor to- the latter's speech at Co.
lumbus. but referred freely to some OF
the policies that were eIfunciated by
the former president before the Ohio
constitutional convention.
Utterly without merit or utility, and
reactionary instead of progressive
crude, revolutionary. fitful and un-
stable were the terms in which the
President referred to the recall method
of reversing judicial constructions OF
the constitution.
Il have examined this proposed
method of reversing judicial decisions
on constitutional questions with care"
President Taft said. Il do not hest
tate to say that it lays the axe at the
foot of the tree OF well ordered free
dom and subjects the guarantees OF
life, liberty and property without rem
edy, to the fitful impulse of tempo
rary majority of an electorate"
The President began with a refer
ence to the development of representa-
live government in the United States
The best government he said. and
that which was most certain to provide
for and protect the rights of every
class. was that government in which
every class had a voice.
Government hN unanimous vote OF
the electorate he said, lis impossible
and therefore the majority of the
electorate must rule. We find that
government by the people, is there
fore. under our present system. gov
eminent by a majority of one fourth
of those whose rights and happiness
are to be affected by the course and
conduct of the government This is
the nearest to a government by the
whole people we have ever had.
Women's suffrage will change this
and il is doubtless coming as soon al
the electorate can he certain that most
women desire il and will assume its
burden and responsibility.
1T was long ago recognized that di-
rect action of temporary majority Of
the existing electorate must be limited
by fundamental law; that is by Il CON
stitution intended to protect the fndi-
vidual and the minority Of the cleo
torate and the non-voting majority of
the people against the unjust or the
arbitrary action of the majority of the
electorate
