TAFT'S CLEAR STATEMENT.

President Taft made little talk to
the Daughters Of the American Revo-
luton at their recent convention in
Washington. He did not say very
much about politics, but what he dill
say was both concise and comprehen.
sive of the real principles upon which
our National Republic is founded. On
this point, he said:
We have reached time In our politi-
cal history. when we have got TO take
down our copies of the Constitution and
renew our vows to the founders of this
Republic and say that the principles for
which they stood shall not he injured
now. We stand for the maintenance OF
freedom, regulated By law
There is not the least doubt but that
the principles upon which the Govern
ment was founded are aSsailed, and if
the demagogues who assail them can
have their way, these principles are
in peril Not only is representative
government itself attacked in favor
Of a demagogic plea for direct popu-
lar rule, but the impartial tribunals
established to see that the laws are
danger of being set aside in favor Of
decision of legal questions by popu,
lar c)amor and show Of hands, the
owners of which have no claim what
ever TO judicial knowledge or ability
to determine legal questions.
President Taft does a service to the
people of the whole country by re-
verting to the foundation principles
of the Republic, and directing atten.
tion TO the assaults made upon those
principles. But when the people fully
comprehend the danger that would en-.
sue to themselves from the setting
aside OF constitutional guarantees and
the imperiling of the courts, there can
be not the least doubt but they will
rolegate all the demagogues 10 the
rear with Jar that viii put them
out of business for such time as they
may live.

BIASED MOVING PICTURES.

The Smoot paper, finding in The
salt Lake Tribune a piece of news
conveyed by Mr., Lippman with respect
to some obnoxious moving pictures
which he saw in Southern California
scandalously misrepresenting Mormon
missionaries. charges the whole matter,
as usual, TO The Tribune. But The Trib.
une has nothing TO do with matters Of
that kind; it has always been perfect
ly open aud fair ju its treatment of the
Mormon as Of other questions, and has
INDUCED in no misrepresentation; it
has always confined itself TO the facts
a. il understood and could obtain them.
The pictures spoken of by Mr. Lipp.
man are probably founded on story
written in England some years ago by
an English woman who had never been
in Utah at all. but who treated OF the
matter wholly from the English stand
point. Nothing of this kind has ever
been supported by The Tribune, and
never have we consented to the plea
made in England with respect to the
abduction of English women for the
white slave traffic" by tho Mormons.

ROOSEVELT'S APPEALS.

Col. Roosevelt 5 appeals for support
recall irresistiby the accounts of
Absalom plotting to get the throne
away from his father David. The ac-
count says that :. .Absalom rose up early
and stood beside the way of the gate
and it was so, when any man that had
controversy came TO the king for judg
mcnt. then Absalom called out unto
him, - and Absalom decided in favor Of
the man on his eX-parte statement. and
then he continued: ''Oh. that |
were made Judge in the land, that every
man which hath any suit or cause
might come unto me. and | would do
him Justice
Such is practically the position of
Col Roosevelt in American politics to-
day, not that we have any King David
nor that throne is at stake. unless
indeed as some have Judged. Roosevelt
has an idea of founding AN autocrstic
kingdom of his own in this country.
Certainly he would not form cousti-
tution2l kingdom, because, as me him
self has said under constitutional
monarchy the king has too little power.
What he would found in the way Of a
monarchy, if his founding were allowed
mt all. would be an autocracy akin to
that of Russia.
