Declares That Ultimately
People viii Say What the
Law Will Be.

New York, n. Y, Jan. 5.-Theodore
Roosevelt discusses judges and pro
gress in an editorial appearing in the
current issue Of the Outlook. He
charges the courts of New York with
usurping the power Of the people in
order to sustain a do nothing policy.
He says in part:
Let me, at the outset. put if so
clearly that only wilful misinterprets.-
ton can deceive people. Just what NV
position as TO the courts is Ihave the
very highest regard, the highest re-
spect and admiration for the iudiciar-
As a whole, I think that our judicial
officers stand on a higher level than
any other body Of public servants or
for the matter Of that, Of private cifi.
zens.
7 could name off hand at this mo-
ment a number Of judges now on fha
bench who render to the people more
substantial service Of more far-reacl1-
ing value than is rendered by anv other
men in public or private life-and all
OF these judges substantially agree
with the position herein taken. which
indeed is largely derived from them. /
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1912-01-05
ROOSEVELT SAYS COURTS ISURP
POWER BELONGING To THE PEOPLE

believe the courts have rendered our
people incalculable service. I hold that
the attitude of our people toward them
should be one Of appreciation and re-
spect but not Of servility.
Judges Should Have Certain Power.
I most emphaticaly believe that we
have been wise in giving great power
to our judges. including this power OF
judicial Interpretation Of statutes to
see whether they conform with the
fundamental law of the land. But 1
also most firmly believe that, like any
other power, this power can be abused
and that il is a power with which the
oeople have merely temporarily parted
and not one which they have perman-
emily alienated-
II am not speaking Of the judges
performance Of the ordinary judicial
function. 1 am speaking of the judge
when by virtue Of his position he de-
cIared that the people as a whole have
or have not the right to carry out a
given policy, a power which may give
one man or three men or five men. the
right to nullify the wishes the enor-
nous majority of their 9O,OOO,000 fell
low citizens, a power which has been
exercised repeatedly, sometimes wisely.
sometimes very unWisely.
Bear in mind that I am not at this
time even referring to decisions deal
ing with the question of the respective
spheres Of action Of nation and state:
/ have in mind decisions which de-
clare the people themselves have no
power to act, through either the ma

Interfere With Social Reform

Interfere With Social Reform
During the last years the courts
here in New York, helped, 1 am sorry
to say, once or twice, by the supreme
court of the nation, have thrown what
al times have proved well nigh or alto
path of needed social reform.
I hold, not only that the courts in
these matters have usurped or at least
exercised in wholly wrong fashion. a
power clearly abidinga in the people
but that they have thus strained to

the court the power to state that a
legislative act is unconstitutional; bu.
