 MatchfuI Waiting Approved.

Indianapolis. President Wilson made notable speech here before an audience of 5000, in which he ably defended his administrator and the policies that have been followed by the Administration and the Democrat ic Congress, He praised the Federal Reserve law; urged the enactment of the conservation bills; favored legis- lation to create a Federal employment bureau; denounced the antiquated pro cedure of the Federal courts and urg- ed a revision of court procedure.
 The President came on the invita- ton of the Indiana Democratic Club and his speech was on Jackson Day"
 The President defended vigorously his policy of watchful waiting in Mexi- co and the crowd applauded him more vigorously for his utterances than on any other subject except when he made the remark:
 The time may come when the Am erican people will be called on to judge whether l know what am talk ing about or not"
 The crowd appeared to think that he was referring to the possibility that he might be a candidate for renomina- tion. This belief found vent in a great outburst of cseering and applause.
 The President, however sought to apologize for the remark when he found he had started something.

Hartford-Ex-Govern Baldwin has expressed his satisfaction at the in- augural address of Governor Marcus H. Holcomb, saying:
 "I think Governor Holcomb's mes sage was full of good sense and wise counsel. It ought to result for one thing. in law to create state pur- veyor, or purchasing agent. This meas ure has been opposed previously by the trustees of some of our dnstitu- tions, because it lessens their patron age and power, but now, with the en- dorsement of the Republican party and a Republican governor, it ought to result in something actual and beneficial in the way of legislation"

WAsHINGToN's POINT OF VIEW.

shington.-Reports of President Wilson's speech at Indianapolis which appeared here led to the conclusion among Democrats and Republicans that it indicated pretty conclusively that President Wilson will be candi- date for the Democratic nomination to succeed himself.
 Politicians in Washington reached this conclusion more from the general single statement contained in it. The entire utterance, it was eontended. was that of a man who does not intend to go down under the food of criti- cism.

Miitarism is less popular in Japan than most of ua have supposed That the people of Japan do met want big army is proved by the action Of the Japanese para ment in rejecting by big majority the governments bin for the enlargement of the land forces The govern ment still hopes to carry it's plan through Following the dissolution of parliament by the emperor there H Go be new eecton in March, and the army policy will az. rarantIy be the biz issue of the campaign
 It is not clear why the government wants bigger army. but that matter may soon be explained The stand ing army Is now fixed 25oooo men, with reserve of o50ooo making total war strength of 100000 with a theoretica. 100000 unorganized to draw upon in extreme need.
 With llaochow captured from the Germans, only two reasons suggest themselves for immediate increase in the mikados army Either that the government wants to send great Europe to help England or that it wants o strengthen its defensive forces lest Germany win the war and then for the loss of ao chow The first of these hypoheses appears the more reasonable If the Allies experience unforeseen dfcuI ties in subdung Germany Great Britain may be expected to send Macedonian call the Far East And the Jap anese government would doubt take pride in marshall ing it's finest troops side by side with those of England and France e-or even those of Russia
 such glory however makes slight appeal just now to a naturally poor nation, strugg ing under tremendous load of taxation The Japanese public seems to prefer an armament policy essentially like her own putting lls chief dependence strong navy Thus far the people have shown more inclination and ability to curb govern mental miHtarism than have those of most European powers 1t win be well for Japan and for the world h the prudent element prevails and limits the empire armament to purposes of defense Such a policy Is o special interest to the United States nhat it tends te silence our ugoes and relieve us of he theoretical duty of armng in fear of aggression from across the Pacific

THAT BAD
 LAWS BE ENFORCED

PHOENIX, Jan. AM A. Perkins of the Verde Valley, one Of the most prominent citizens or the northern part of the state who was intercepted on his way to the convention of cat- tlemen which convenes at Douglas January 4, i'm discussing our laws sug- eested an unusual remedy
 "If law is found to be bad" Mr. Perkins remarked, 'the common course is to let it lie a dead letter on the statute books. But that is a bad plan, for you can never tell when it will bounc eupand strike you in the face, or some other part of your anat- omy. | have never forgotten the ad- vice of a judge back in Texas when I was on the grand jury there years ago, and 9 bad law was under dis cussion The judge confesse dthat he didn't like the law any better than we did but he impressed upon us that the method to get it ont of the way quick was 10 execute it When the public feel it pinch the judge eX- plained they wont stand it.
 And when we Arizonans feel a pinch. as we do just now. MT Perkins added "and hiid that 1t comes from some of our i'l-considered legislation, we won't stand it long either but re- peal such laws as are unwise.'
