An Ohio Judge on Recall

Judge Wananaker Of Akron. Ohio.
spoke with great 1rankness TO the
gentlemen OF his profession at Chi
cago last week on the subject OF re-
calling judges. To the protests that
judges should not be governed by
the people. he retorted that we have
in this country something worse-"a
government OF the people by the
judges To the plea that judges
should be sacrosanct. his retort was
that our judges are chosen from the
big lawyers. and the standard OF the
big lawyer is nearly always the big
fee And when he dealt with the
pitiful point that under the recall.
judges would keep an ear TO the
ground" he made reply which I'M
happily goes to the heart of the Ques-
ton; Il would rather they kept both
ears to the ground than that they kept
one ear TO the railroad track" Men
who honestly shrink from subjecting
judges to the popular recall. have on
" their own Indifference in the past
TO thank for the now irresistible tend.
ency in that direction. Had they
been as solicitous for the judicial err
mine when the railroad lawyers were
coming into wearing it to soil it. as
they are now that popular distrust
Of the judiciary has been thereby
aroused, the recall might never have
been demanded, AS II is. the ordin-
AIRY citizen finds it difficult to recon.
Gle the unanimity. in opposition to
the judicial recall, Of Big Business
and the lawyers and judges thereof,
with any other motive than desire
TO save to privileged classes this last
resort of Privilege.

The Parting Of the Ways.

The presidential campaign now in
full vigor marks a new line in ma
tional parties. The republican par
ty, after more than half a century
OF almost uninterrupted power, finds
itself in the identical position the
democratic party was in when it split
over the slavery question in 1850
The lines are fully as closely drawn
After half century OF power, the
democratic party, in 1850, discovered
that it was dominated and ruled by
the slave owning oligarchy OF the
south The Baltimore convention Of
that year marked an epoch. The
democracy Of the north refused 70
follow further the mods and winks
OF the brainy, if mistaken. gentle
men from south OF the Mason and
Dixon line, and the result is too well
known to repeat here
Conditions today in the Unitei
States are somewhat analogous. The

A De ectabIe Controversy.

Imagine two full Grown men tryinG
to climb a creased POLE at a county
ia to snatch some tempting prize
at the top. Ii your imagination can
stand the strain. YOU will have a pic
ture Of the Presidential contest be-
tween Taft and Roosevelt. Your fan
Jas,ic picture viii eain in verisimili
tude If YOU imagine the poll-climbers
as old chums whose self-absorbt.on
in pursuit Of the prize has got them
to scratching and clawing. kicking,
pushing. punching and pulling, and
exchanging uncomplimentary remarks
while incidentally distributing valu-
able information confident.ally ac-
qured. In itself this presidential eX-
hibitiou IS disgusting; Vet it may bs
worth enduring FOR its disclosures.
MI Roosevelt shows his accurate
knowledge OF Mr.. Taft when he de
scribes him as 4 man who "meuas
We'll. bur who means Well feebiy. 3"
and who in his administration has
been under the influence Of men VINO
are neither Well meaning nor feeble
Mr. Roosevelt is also 10 be credited
with penetration when ne says I'll,
IS this quality Of feebleness in Il nor
mally am.able man which pre-emin-
emily fits such a man for use in high
office by the powers OF evil" But did
not Mr.. Roosevelt, after years OF in
innate association with this amiable
man who means Well teebly." and
in no ignorance whatever OF the fact
that powers o: evil eager 10 use
such man swarm about the Presiden-
tial chair-did he not thrust this
feeblemeaning and amiable man.
with his pre-eminent fitness for the
use OF such powers. into that very
chair? Nevertheless. not until Mr.
TAFT got in Mr.. Rooseyelt's way on
the creased pole with its coveted
prize at the top. dc Mr.. Roosevelt dis.
close his knowledge OF Mr. Taft's pre-
eminent and dangerous weakness.
Mr. Taft's portrait of Mr.. Roosevelt
is as true as Rooseyelts OF him. With
reference to the trusts. for instance.
who can reasonably dispute Mr.. Taft's
description OF Mr.. Roosevelts anti
trust policy? He observes that Mr.
Roosevelt is going 10 smash the
bad trusts and he is going to protect
the good trusts" but gives no other
guide than that OF Executive discre
ton And who can deny the truth
OF Mr. Tatt's characterization of such
a policy as amounting in the end TO
nothing but the establishment OF &
benevolent despotism?" A despotism
Mr.. Roosevelts policy exactly appears
TO be. when the froth and fume are
wiped off his utrerances; and as for
its benevolence-well We have Mr..
Roosevelt's word for that.-The Pub

J. $. CONSIDERING
 MEXICAN AFFAIRS
Conditions Regarding Ameri- cans Have Not Improved
 Since Last Warning.

western Newspaper Union News Service
 g,on.-Henry Lane Wilson, American ambassador to Mexico, who has been here in conference with State Department officials regarding condi- tions growing out of the Mexican revo- lution, left last week for New York preparatory to sailing for his post without the expected note of represen- tations which this government is pre- pairing to be sent to the Mexican gov ernment demanding protection for American citizens and property.
 This action is taken as a further evidence of the intention of the ad- ministration to deal with this delicate and difficult situation with circum- spection and in spirit of delibera- ton. The communication is being pre- pared with the greatest care at the State Department and will be trans- ferred to the American ambassador shortly after his arrival in Mexico City, early in January.
 The deliberations with which the of flclals are moving in the preparation of the case of the United States vs. Mexico is expected to result in the production of brief that is expected to be well nigh unanswerable except by promise of prompt and adequate action on the part of he Mexican gov ernment to fairly and fully meet the demands of the United States in the matter of the protection of American interests in Mexico
 Justification for this demand by the United States government is declared to be found in the numerous reports to the State Department from every quarter to the general effect that con ditions in Mexico have grown worse since the dispatch of Secretary Knoxs note of protest last September and that there has been marked increase in brigandage and the kidhaping of Americans for ransom and in the levy ing of force war loans by the rebels upon American mines and plantations.

TO WITHHOLD ALL NAMES
Pres.-Elect Wilson Says Announcement
 Officers Will Be Made in March.

" sstern Newspaper Union News Service.
 trenton, N. J.-Whether William J. Bryan, or any of the other Democrats being mentioned by politicians gen orally for places in the cabinet of fresident-eleet Wilson, will be appoint ed probably will not be definitely known until few days before inaugu- ration day.
 Governor Wilson said that very likes ly he would not make a single an- nouncement of importance until about March l.
 Scattering announcements would be foolish" he said, "even if I had them to make. I'll wait until pretty late. The time will depend somewhat upon the number of written communi. cations received. All these letters recommending individuals for office are being grouped and will be taken up separately"
 MT. Wilson indicated he would not feel at liberty to make final decision until the merits of all possible candi- dates had been set forth to him.
 What l am sincerly trying to do," he added. lis to see the field of choice and to try to get as many opinions as possible that are worth while"
 1Se president-elect likewise made it clear that he would maintain a policy Of silence, and nothing would be fin ally established until he made the an nouncement over his own signature.
 MT. Wilson was asked if he believ- ed he would encounter any difficulty in getting the men desired for cabinet portfolios to accept. It had been sug- gested that in the case of the attorney generalship, noted lawyers often had been reluctant 10 leave their practices and for this reason many able men were not pushed by their friends.
 That has not been my experience" replied the governor. with smile. I've asked some people and they have been quite ready with their names"

western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Washington.-The foreign trade of the United States in 1912 will exceed all previous records. Figures just compiled by the Bureau of Statistics, Department of Commerce and Labor indicate that the imports of the year will approximate $1,S00, 100000 against $1,563. 100000 in 1910, which was the former high record year for imports, and that the exports will aggregate $2,- 4OO,000,000 against S2,093 ,000, 900, the former high record for exports, 1911.
 The calendar year also will break all records in the value of both i'm. ports and exports.
 The increase in imports occurred es- pecially in manufactures of raw ma terlals, which for the ten months for Whlch flgqres are available amounted to $323 ,S73.0SS, against $421 ,503,273 in the same months of last year, The increase occurred especially in hides and skins which show a gain of $33,- o0o,o00; rubber about s20,0OO, 900; wool more than $15,000,000, and fibers s10.- O00,OO0.

w w,shinuton Draws Conclusions From Visit of Bryan to
 New Jersey.
MP. BRYAN SEEMED PLEASED
Claim Is Made That Clark and Un- derwood Have Formed Con-
 servative Coalition.

western Newspaper Union News Service
 Washington Gn.-lntimations of a fast forming lineup of the more conserva. tive forces of Democracy in opposition to President Wilson and William Jen- nings Bryan, to be led by Speaker Clark and House Leader Underwood. were manifested. following Colonel Bryans yisit to Washington.
 It is now freely predicted, even by the early supporters of Mir. Wilson. that Mir. Bryan will accept the port folio of state. although according to the best obtainable information and Mr. Wilson's own statement, neither Colonel Bryan nor anyone has as yet been tendered cabinet place.
 One thing is certain, and that is that Mr. Bryan came to Washington on his way to visit Governor Wilson. feeling cheerful about conditions; that he had long visit with the man whom he nominated for president; and that he came back to Washington feeling even more pleased with things in gen. eral when he passed through here on his way north
 4 report says Mir. Bryan and MT. Wilson understand each other. and are determined to cooperate, and they have found special incentive to close harmony in the fact that since the opening of the congress session devel- opments have made clear that Speak CT Clark and Mir. Underwood have es- iablished working understanding which has the purpose of promoting their mutual interest. even at the ex- pense of President-elect Wilson.
