IN j Those who want to do politics In Iho future might afi well make up their minds to render the people some ocrvlce besides draw a salary, That Taft stands for higher Ideals than the nvorngo party machine man likes to encourage, IS PRETTY WELL UNDERSTOOD. Out Taft will come pretty near .vilting tho people, the common run of citizens who are patriotic cltl zens and partisans but not for rev en tie. n : The most Important piece of leg islation to tho credit of the tesslon 13 admittedly the Emplcyers' liabil ity Law If It proves valid. . Many papers characterize ta tar clal the manner In which ths act was rushed through both hous's, al most without discussion. Some of the senators who voted for, It, says a Washington dlipatch, had not oven read It. THE POLITICAL EXIGENCIES DEMANDED A SOP FOR LIBOR. WJiat tho bill alms to do I? thus summarized by tho Louisville Courier-Journal: "It abolishes the old commen-law rule that ono cannot recovor fcr tho negligence- of a fellow-servant that Is, another employee.

The mastorly Inactivity of cong ress townrd the program of legisla tion which the president so em phatically set before It In his mes Kngu of n few weo'is ago, Is nrouslng the Indignation of Uie president's newspaper nupporters and drawing GLEEFUL COMMENTS FROM THE ANTI-ROOSEVELT PRESS. "It Is (llfllciilt to roHlst the con clusion." says tho Now York Indo- It sueiiiH now that your predic tion of some time ago thnt tho big No one has denied or can deny that it would be an excellent thing to raise tho tax on unimproved land as compared with Improved land. No one will maintain that It Is mor ally and ethically right for the spec ulative lecohes and parasites of so ciety to ho'.d blocks of run Imp roved property out of reach of those who would Improve It until they reap all the unearned Increment out of It which society creates for them. No disrespect Is hero meant to Suck speculators. ' Tho writer, himself, has In a small way been one of theni. They do a strictly legal business, 'It g. only tho law which pcrmlti It that is wrong, and ithls wrong the proposed law Is Intended to remedy In a degreo , Just In n degree, bc causo the proposed exemptions arc such a small portion of the wholo that oven tho unimproved property will not have to bo taxed to a very great extent to make up for the ex emptions. If It were not an exhibition of such grossly Ignorant prejudice it would be laughable to see the self satisfied grins on somo people's fncea when nn opponent of the Inw eaks: "If tho rich man cannot hold the unimproved land on accounj of tho higher taxes upon it how then can, tho poor man afford to buy it, and how then can the proposed tax. benefit the poor man?" This clap trnp Ib concluslvo to them Just be cause they nre prejudiced. If thoy were not prejudiced they could ens lly see thut the poor man could af ford to buy property because ho y Spring Suit Thoughts Sninshlno agnln!

Dr. Lyman Abbott of Plymouth church and edi tor of "Tho Outlook," Tom L. John son, mayor of Cleveland, Governor Chamberlain of Oregon, Senator La Follotte, W. J. Bryan and President Roosevelt nil favor It. But neverthe less tho prejudice against anything so new to us most of us probably have never heard of It until last win ter Is so poworf'.il n to seem In vincible.
