He also issued a statement in which he denned the platform upon which he will make hla fight. In which he pointed to hla recent speeches aa the best expressions of his opinions. Colonel Roosevelt's visit to Harvard today waa not entirely peaceful. Since hla arrival In Boston last Saturday he haa been followed by taxlcaba tilled with reporters and photographers, whenever hla pursuers were able to keep trace of hla movements. The pursuit led today to two clubs at Har vard. Once the Colonel walked up to a pursuing automobile, opened the door and said that he did not wish to be followed, as his visit to Harvard was of a purely social nature. The Colonel became angry. Pursuers Refuse te Uult. As he alighted from the motor car at the Hasty Pudding Club, the camera men were driven up and aimed their machines at him. The Colonel waved his arms In protest, but It was useless. Again he went to the automobile and demanded that the pursuit stop. He was met with a polite but Arm refusal. The Colonel turned aharply and fled Into the clubhouse. "Yes. he confessed Ister. "I was angry enough to fight.

ITS S r "- 1 - C r t v 'A AdTOrat-y of Ileoall of Judicial Ie ciionn, Harmless if I'ttered by Mere Anarchist, Dangerous From Leader's Lips. WASHINGTON, Feb. J7. Reversal of Judicial decisions by popular vote, as proposed by Ex-President Roosevelt In his Columbus address last week, was denounced In the Senate today by Sena toi Rayuer, of Maryland, as "the most dangerous doctrine ever brought for ward by anyone who has the slightest regard for the stability of our Insti tutions and whose opinion la entitled to any weight or respect." Senator Rayner declared that In dis cussing the ex-President, who again Is a candidate for the Republican nomina tion for 'resident, he did not speak a a pnrtlean, because he believed the Re publicans could nominate no man who would be easier to defeat. Conception "I'nfque and Original." "What I desire to call attention to today," said the Senator. "Is a unique and original conception which he ad vanced upon this occasion and which I quote literally as follows: " 'The decision of a state court on a constitutional question should be sub ject to revision by the people of the state. " 'If any considerable number of the people feel that the decision Is in den once of justice, Lhey should be given the right by petition to bring before the voters at some subsequent elec t'on. special or otherwise, as might be decided and after the fullest oppor tunity for deliberation and debate, the question whether or not the judge's in terpretation of the Constitution is to be sustained. If it Is sustained, well and good. If not then the popular verdict Is to be accepted aa final, the decision ia to be treated as reversed and the construction of the constitution defi nitely decided subject only to action by the Supreme Court of the United States.' Hostility to Courts Manifested. Mr. President. If a proposition of this sort had been advanced by an ord nary agitator, or by an anarchist, no ttentlon would be paid to it ana it would involve no actual danger to the Republic We must realize, however. that this Is the utterance of a political leader who occupies today as promt nent a place before the public as any one In the country. 'People who regard this merely as a flippant and Impulsive utterance of a candidate for public ottlce are making a great mistake. In my Judgment, the ex-President has been reflecting over this proposition for years. He has always been hostile to the decisions of the courts whenever they conlllcted with his own views. During the whole of his administra tion, he bad an Idea lingering In his mind that it was the duty of the courts to carry out the policy Of the execu tive branch of the Government, and this belief was connected with another Idea and that was that, so far as ex ecutive functions were concerned, he i absolutely supreme, unlimited by the specifications of the Instrument that created them. What to Do Is Problem. "Now. what Is the present situa tion? Mr. Roosevelt Is a candidate for President of the United States. There was no need of any persuasion what ever to Induce him to enter the field. There was no dragging of Clnclnnatus from the plow. "I had hoped that outbreaks like this were over when Mr. Roosevelt ab dicated his place a few years ago and started upon his restful and harmless expedition to the jungles of Africa. I don't know what we will do with our friend. Would It be possible. If he con sents, to tender him to the new republic of China. In the event of his defeat? And I am satisfied that, even if nomi nated, he would be easily defeated. "I believe that there Is a large num ber of Mr. Roosevelt's followers in this country who would today favor vest ing In him autocratic power. Our In stitutions underwent a radical change under his, administration. He Inau gurated a new era of constitutional thought. "He is possessed with a mad fancy that this is and ought to be an Ex ecutive Government, that the powers of the Executive ought to override those of the legislative and Judicial branches of the public service. Balance Would Be Destroyed. "By all the patronage and all th power that he can command, he prac tlcally would force upon the country an interpretation of our organic law that will level Its distinction and obli- CHINA SSL Russia's dragon is tyranny; China's, superstition. Each is the subject of an article, the intrinsic interest of which is unusual. RUSSIA ft 'Pictures in a Chinese Temple," by Thornton Oakley, emphasizes that side of Chinese life which is picturesque rather than progressive. But Harriet Monroe's description of "The Education of Chinese Children" shows how the picturesque is giving way to ideas and ideals from the western world. Her description of the ancient methods is all the more timely because those methods are slowly disap pearing. Naturally a Chinese mother graduated from Bryn Mawr has ideas against compressing either feet or heads. George Kennan, to whom we already owe so much ofHvhat we know about Russia, tells of the workings of the "mouse-trap," on of the methods by which the police try to throttle the enemies of the government. Kennan quotes Dumas for his description of a device not unknown outside Russia; but only so great an authority on Russian affairs as George Kennan can adequately describe the modern "mouse-trap" of that country.
