and American Tobacco cases

before the supreme court, know
ing also that Chief Justice White
for 20 years had been determined

Hughes.
In the case of Thompson VS..
Thompson, in October, 1910,
Hughes had cOncurred in Har-
lan's dissenting opinion. in which
the following unequivocal state
ment occurred:
Their duty (the courtsD is
only to declare what the law is,
not what, in their Judgment, 1t
ought to be q Now there is
not here, as | think, any room
whatever for mere construction,
SO explicit are the words of con-
gress. The judgment just

effect to defeat the clearly ex-
pressed will of the legislature by
a construction of its words that
cannot be reconciled with their

On the basis of his decisions
in the great trust cases which We
have reviewed, there is thus evsry
indication that Hughes mind diff
fers little, if at all, from that OF
Taft, and that if a comparison
must be made, on the question of
the relation of the government
and the trusts, Hughes is more
reactionary even than Taft!

Calls It Confession"
The World says: Hughes ac-
ceptance is a public confession Of
candidate without an issue and
without a policy. His policy, he
says, is of firmness. But what
form is this firmness to take.
War? Intervention"
Hughes attacked the record of
the administration in regard to
foreign relations.
In numerous instances. nota-
bly, in Latin America, where such
course was particularly repre-
hensible and where we desireffO
encourage the most friendly rela-
tions, men of long diplomatic en-
perience whose knowledge and
training were of especial value
to the country were retired ap-
parently for no other reason than
to meet partisan demands by the
appointment OF inexperienced
persons.
The trust of Santo. Domingo,
he said, was "shockingly betray-
ed" in order to satisfy sdeserv-
ing democrats"
Shockingly Unprepared
1.-THE conduct of the admins
tration in Mexico has created diff
ficulties we shall have to sur
mount. We shall have to adopt
new policy of firmness and con-
sistency."
I'VE are shoekingly unprepar-
ed. In view of the warnings of
the last three years, 1t is mex
cusable that we should find our
selves in this plight.
Had this government left no
doubt that when we said strict
accountability we meant exactly
what we said, and that we should
unhesitatingly vindicate that po-
sition, | am confident there would
have been no destruction Of
American lives by the sinking Of
the Lusitania.
