on the subject OF corporations. advocating

their activities, but to regulate and control

The subject Of taxation is discussed at
some length. with some novel suggestions
in that respect, and there is, OF course. a

temptation and weakness.
Will Be True to Pledge.
With a deep sense OF duty so TO ORDER
our countrys government that the oless-
ings which God has vouchsafed 10 US may
be continued, we can be trusted to keep
the pledge given TO the American people
by the last Republican National Conyen'
ton:
"The Republican party will uphold at
all times the authority and integrity OF
the courts, state and federal. and viii
ever insist that their powers 70 enforce
their process and to protect life, liberty
and prosperity shall be preserved invio'
late"
We must be true to that pledge, for N
no other way can our country keep Itself
within the straight and narrow path pre-
scribed by the principles OF right conduct
embodied in our Constitution.
For Independent Judiciary.
The limitations upon arbitrary power
and the prohibition Of the Bill Of Rights
which protect liberty and insure justice
cannot be enforced except through the
determinations Of an independent and
courag eous judiciary.
We shall be true TO that Republican
pledge. The great courts in which Mar.
shall and Story and Harlan sat will not
be degraded from their high Office. Their
judges will not be punished for honest
decisions: their judgments will be re.
spected and obeyed. The keystone o.
this bsenced and stable structure OF
government. established by our fathers,
will not be shattered by Republican
hands; for we stand with Alexander
Hamilton. who said, in 1.-THE Federalism
