Republican Club Indorses Taft; De-
nOunceS Recall.

Whereas, William Howard Taft,
the President of the United States,
is a candidate for denomination by
his party, after four years of eff
cient and successful administration
of the affairs of the government;
and
Whereas, Upon the subject of re-
call of judges and of judicial decis-
ions he has consistently, wisely and
ably maintained the integrity of the
bench, the independence of the jul
dietary and the finality of decisions
of courts of last resort;
Resolved, That the Republican
Club of the City of New York here
by indorses the administration of
President Taft and his candidacy
for denomination by the Republican
party; and
Resolved, That the Republican
Club hereby expresses it's unqualified
disapprvaI and condemnation of the
doctrines of recall of judges and of
judicial decisions. Such doctrines
are contrary to the settled policy of
the Republican party and the con-
stitutional theory of the govern
ment. They are Populistic to an ex-
treme degree. They substitute i'm
pulse and passion for the well con-
sidered judgments of courts of last
resort, reached after careful re-
search and study by judges of exper-
ience, trained and best qualified to
determine grave constitutional
rights; and
Resolved, That in the judgment of
the Republican Club it has become
and should be the wise policy of
this country that no single individual
should fill the great office of Presi-
dent more than two terms; and
Resolved, That the president of
the club appoint a committee of
twenty-five, with power to add to it's
membership, for the purpose of CO.
operating with other organizations
to secure their adoption of similar
resolutions and their Endorsement of
the principles herein expressed.
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1912-03-27

the candidacy of these young men a
sign of party health rather than a
party menace. They undoubtedly
represent a sentiment within the par
ty. And however strong or however
weak that sentiment may be, II
should have the right to express it.
self at the primaries. Fortunately,
under our present system, the fullest
opportunity is given for the express
sion of divergent opinions at the
primaries. And for this opportunity
all men of all parties should be truly
grateful. If therefore the candidacy
of Messrs. Samson and Crossley give
any considerable portion of the Re-
publican voters of the county an op-
portunity to express by their ballots
an opinion that otherwise could not
be so expressed, then their candi-
dacy is to be welcomed and not con-
demned.
Let me say, finally, however, that
II is my personal conviction that the
candidate for delegate to either the
national or state convention who
commits himself unreservedly to the
candidacy of Mr.. Roosevelt or Mr..
Taft or any other seeker for the pres
ldential nomination, is making a
serious mistake He Is putting him
self in a position where the success
or failure of one mans ambition
counts for everything, and the sue
cess or failure of his party counts
for nothing in comparison. | be-
lieve this to be a mistaken policy.
believe the uninstructed, unfettered
delegate, in this crisis, is in a way to
do vastly better service to his party
and his country than the one who
goes committed irrevocably to the
fortunes of any single candidate"
