William Howard Taft, former presi.

lengthy address before the American
Bankers association today. His speech
hristled with pungent sentences, as he
slammed one thing after another that
appealed to him as hindering the best
development of the American people. In
this category were the initiative and
referendum, the recall, general primar.
les, arrogant capital and arrogant la
Dor. But in conclusion, he declared him
self an optimiSt who could see that good
wolld result from such catastrophe as
the present European war.
Paragraphs and sentences from his
speech follow:
"The rapid growth of wealth be-
tween 1880 and 1900 absorbed the at
tention of all our people. We were all
in the chase for the dollar"
"The principle OF combination was
found quite as applicable to politics and
party government as to machinery and
capital. "
''The time came when it was possible
iEi some great corporations for the of
ficers and directors to issue, with the
same nolchaiancc, orders for steel
rails on the one hs.nd or for tAe dehv-
cry of delegates to national political
cOiiv ontion on the other"
"For more tncl TWO decades the
contro,ersy went on between tae rail.
roads and the government until the
weakling board of 1887 grew into the
powerful tribunal of 1910, and the rail

years, but "all the people cann,ot be
fooled all the time.
Corporations have been driven out
of politics, and wnile of course, cor

of plutocracy has disappeared and the

"We should repeal the full crew bills
that impose upon the railrnd com.

"No change in our social condition,

 West Virginia in adopting present prohibition law was satisfied that the statute complete and so carefully wordeG as to make the state "boozeprooL" It specifically forbade the Importation nquor by all the various routes and methods the lawmakers coId think or But they overlooked possibiity-tha of snug gling liquor by aeropaue Now it is reported that an enterprisne Ohio rn is planning aeviatc the sui erngs of thirsty West vi~gnians by this very method
 Virginia which has passed a similar prohibition law to become effective in two years caught alarm from her neighbor's peril and seems determined that air. craft shall never be utilized to violate her abstiu ence The state senate at Richmond has acted with promptness and decision It has adopted unanimously

HE SENATORIAL MARArAon.

The public has had a genuine interest in the govern shipping bn but less interest than might hay expected in the rather spectacular nHbustr agains When the senate peryerts debate into a physical urance test comparable to eightday bicycle tho 'resentday citizen is rather dsgusted
 There is ample precedent of course, for senate fiji usters. And they pso facto evidence of ethe atriotism wickadne.s the part Of the party em loving them. This time it has been the Republican. rying to talk a bin to death The Democrats have done he same thing in previous session$
 In every such case minority deliberately plots to de eat the will of the majority And since this republic t ased on the principle majority rule such action i. Iways in defiance of government. The majority may e wrong, but our poIidoal theory, and that of mos modern nations is ,hat the majority by he mere fact f its being a majority has the right to rule.
 Without regard to inc merits Of this particular fli user most citizens seem to felt that Inc method not only un-American but unworthy of the United ates senate Surely the greatest deberauye body or arth" can find more rational and dgnified way Of do 1g business Nowhere else in the world is there al important senate or parliament or governmental aoun il that permits such an abuse of the debains privilege
