A word is in order as OF the evolu-
ton Of the simple yet great Bryan
peace plan," with its provision for
investigation and reasonable delay,
says the Record Herald. 1t was a
prominent feature of the Taft ''un-
limited arbitration treaties" Credit
for that feature was publicly rendered
to Mr.. Bryan by President Taft, the
latter having taken it, with pleasure
and appreciation, from speech made
by the former in London. The Taft
treaties having been emasculated by
the senate and shelved by Secretary
Knox, Mr.. Bryan, on succeeding that
gentleman, conceived the idea of sepa.
rating the investigation feature from
the arbitration scheme and dealing
with it in distinct treaty. 1t wa:
happy idea, and its success, now
apparently assured, will mean nlucf
to peace and civilization. That it vii
indirectly help the cause of arbitra
ton is tolerably clear.

PUEBLO SQUABBLE DECIDED.

DENVER, June 9-The supreme
court this morning decided the TAFT
case sustaining commission govern
ment and the preferential system of
voting in Pueblo. Justice White dis
sented. Gabbert handed down a spe-
cial concurring opinion.
The case involved practically all the
disputed points concerning the cleo
tion which are practically the same
as those raised in the Denver case.
1t is believed today's decision is
sucf as to preclude further appeal
by the ousted officers Of Denver.
The TAFT case has been in court
for several months, and involved the
validity of the preferential system of
voting. TAFT attacked its constitu-
tionality as direct attempt to abol-
ish the republican form of govern
lnent.
The decision also directly affects
Grand Junction where the same sys-
TEN CT government is in force.
