TA FT FAVORS PRIMARIES.
Opponents of President Taft in the
preseut cauiiiuign are making " the
claim that they alone favor presiden
tial primaries. The truth ts that both
aides In the present contest favor the
pruBldonlal primaries.
President Taft in an address to the
Massachusetts; legislature on March
18th of this year said: ;
"Wherever full and fair notice of
the election can be given; wherever
adequate election safeguards can be
thrown around to protect, a preferen
tial primary for the presidency; wher
ever the constitution of the state per-r

couragement to use the patent Iaw3
for purposes of monopoly, was ren
uereu in a case involving the use of
a mimeograph. In this instance the
patentee had Insisted that the buyer
use his particular variety of Ink. He
was upheld in his position by the rul

Comment on this decision through
out the country leaves no doubt as ;o
the generally unfavorable Impression
it lias made. Followed to its logical
conclusion it means that the maker of

the the owner buy coal from him. If

with the spirit of the Sherman law and
with the public . sentiment existing
against restraint of trade.
The one ray of hope lies In the fact
that the case was not henrd before the
full bench. Four members of the
court have taken this view and be-
cause only seven sat In the case thev
were In the majority. It is notable
nowever, tnai such : able jurists as
Chief Justice White and Associate
justices Hughes and Lamar filed dls
senting opinions .pointing out in vig
orous language the full moaning of
tne ruling.
That the decision Is contrary to
sound public policy Is apparent even
to the Justices who handed It down.
They eay, however, that it is the duty
or congress to amend the statute It
self and that It Is not part of tbnlr

public will reject. Courts, It is true,
must interpret laws as they find them,

case, read into a statute a meaning
