New York. With a denunciation of
the principle of judicial recall, deliver
d to the bar association of the state
of New York at its banquet. President
Taft concluded a busy visit. After
a plea for simplification of legal pro
cedure, which he argued with much
earnestness before the company of
lawyers, Mr. Taft waxed more Incisive
In coming to the topic on which he
evidently felt deeply.
"We do not believe that all people
are fitted for popular government." he
said. "Some of us don't dare say so,
but I do, and the question whether
a people is fitted for popular self gov
ernment depends upon the restraint
that the minority can place upon the
majority to see that justice ts done.
"We of the bar are called upon to
decide whether we are going to pro
tect the judiciary and continue It In-

that It Is deciding questions of law j
and justice.
"The judicial recall the words
themselves are so Inconsistent that I
hate to utter them! Are we going to i
make our constitution a liquid thing I
so that a majority can flood the halls
of justice, decide every 'action and
override with popular passion and
prejudice every principle of this gov
ernment, the greatest God ever
made?"
Roosevelt For President of Chinese.
New York. That Theodore Roose
velt should be asked to assume the
temporary presidency of the new Chi
nese republic was the startling sug
gestion made by Dr. Toyokichi Iyen
aga, professor of political science in
Chicago university, in an address be
fore the civic forum In the Hudson
theat. Colonel Roosevelt, accord
ing to Dr. lyenaga, is the only man
fit to solve the difficulties that now
menace the people of China.
REBUE INQUIRY IS ON
Special Agent Investigates Conditions
in San 'Francisco.
San Francisco. That the depart
ment of justice contemplates the pro
secution of certain trans-Pacific
steamship companies for having given
rebates to favored shippers was the
Intimation of A. R. Dickinson, special
agent of the department, who made
his presence known here after having
spent a week in quiet study of ship
ping conditions on the waterfront.
Dickinson came here from Seattle,
where, he said, he had loaked into
the reports that American firms ship
ping goods to the Orient over the
Northern Pacific railroad, owned by
J. J. Hill, and the Hill steamship line,
had received rebates from the steam
ship cempeny.
ARMY IS GUARDING i
, TEXTILE FttlHB!
Lawrence, Mass. This c!t7 is a
anned camp. Militiamen, to whom a
double round of ball cartridges was
served out, patrol the business section
and the mill region with their guns
ready for instant action. State police
and private detectives, with revol-
vers anly half concealed, are much in !
evidence, not alone in the business '
section, but throughout the residence j
Quarter. The ci'y officials are united
In declaring that, as the result of the
textile workers' strike, the city is in
grave danger of destruction. j
In confirmation of this declaration,
they point to the discoveries they
allege to have made of creat quanti
ties of dynamite cached in the heart
of the Syrian quarter in a clump of
bushes less than a stone's throw from
the big Arlington milis.
The strike leaders openly charge
the dynamite was planted by emis
saries of the mill owners. Joseph Kt
ter, head of the strikers, said that the
mill owners were frightened by the
change in public sentiment which is
now behind the strikers because of
their obvious attempts to preserve
order in the face of maltreatment by
the militia.
Cuban Policy 13 Approved,
London. President Tail's course in
the matter of the Cuban note is com
mended throughout Europe, cave in a
few quarters. The sole criticism is
that "a wise step has been taken be
latedly." Chinese Republic Makes Paper Money
Chicago. Currency used by the j
new Chinese republic is being printed
in Chicago. This became known ;
when a Chinaman, arrested, was ,
found to have one of the notes. The j
order for the printing was left here,
it was learned, by Dr. Sun Yat Si n, !
before he departed for China.
