The administration of exact jus-
tice by courts.without fear or favor,
unmoved by the influence of the
wealthv or by the threats of the
demagogue, is the highest ideal
that a government of the people
can strive for, and any means by
which a suitor, however unpopular
or poor, is deprived of enjoying
this is to lie condemned. Hon.
Wm. H. Taft, at Columbus, Ohio.
Certain great trusts or great cor
porations are wholly unaffected by
the tariff. Practically all the oth
ers that are of any :r srtance
have, as a matter of fact, numlxjrs
of smaller American competitors:
and, if a change in the tariff which
would work iniury to the large
corporations would work not mere
ly injury but destruction to its
smaller competitors and equally,
of course, such a change would
mean disaster to all the wage-workers
connected with either the large
or small corporations. President
Roosevelt, at Minneapolis, Minn.,
April 4, 1904-
The democrats are a party hav
ing no solidarity, uniting elements
that are as unmixable as oil and
water, and when they come to
make a government, should they
ever Ihj elected to power, the ad
ministration wouui necome as
nerveless as a man with paralysis,
because the radical difference be
tween the elements necessary to
make up the party would lie so
great as to procure perfect stagna
tion for legislative provision for
the emergencies which might arise.
The democratic party today, as
organized, is nothing but organiz
ed incapacity. Neither element of
the party would have a sense of
responsibility strong enough to
overcome its antagonism to the
principles upheld by the other (ac
tion, were it to come into power.

The Uoswcll Kcgister-Trihune
gives the following good advice to
the business men o( the territory
and as it is important, it will be
heeded and acted upon by them
and thus redound to the great good
ol the territorv. Says the Uegis-ter-Tribune:
"It is a marked lact that the
best business interests in the ter
ritory demand the re-election of
Delegate W. II. Andrews. Tlure
is nothing mysterious nbout it.
A successlul man in trnde knows
a successful man in politics, and
to vote for Andrews is simply an
act directly in line with such knowledge."
We were passim: into a legitne
ol an irresponsible plutociacv.
Duting the last four years then

to thin danger among the people
and a popular demand that the law

H. Talt, at Kansas Cit, Mo.
In the ten years which has
elapsed since the enactment ol the
Dingley Tariff, the conditions have
so changed as to make a number
of the schedules under that tariff
too high and some too low. This
renders it necessary to re-examine
the schedules in order that the tar
iH shall Ih.- placed on a puiely pro
tective basis. Kv that I mem it

foreign competition, and afford a
reasonable profit to all manufac
turers, farmers and business men.
but should not be so high as to
furnish a temptation to the forma
tion of monopolies to appropriate
the undue profit of excessive rates.
Hon. Wm. H. Talt at Kansas
City. Mo.
The Raton Range makes a
pointed argument in the following:
"We must not lose sight of the
fact that every republican vote this
year is a statehood vote in spite of
the democratic opposition to its
own interests in behalf of the
cause. This dog-in-the-manger
attitude will not benefit the demo
cratic party of New Mexico. The
democrats have year after year de
clared themselves to be in favor ol
statehood. In 1892 a democratic
administration was elected on a
platform declaring statehood, and
a democratic delegate sent to con
gress, and yet there was no suc
cessful effort made hv the nartv
(or admission. Now that state-
hood seems really in sight the
democrats are experiencing a
change of heart, talking statehood
in every county in the territory,
and at the same time hulittlinu the 1
men who could secure admission
on the bill of Mr. Andrews now
pending in congress.
Mr. Bryan's whob- system of
remedies foi the evils that both
Mr- Roosevelt and he and manv
others recognize, is based on his
distrust of the honestv. couraee
;md impartiality ot the individual
as an agent on behalf of the people
to carry on any part of the govern
ment and rests on the proposition
that our present system of tepre
tative government is a failure.
He would have government owner
ship of railways because he does
not believe it is possible to secure
an inter-state commerce commis
sion that the "money power'' can.
not and will not ultimately own.
He would have the initiative and
referendum because he distrusts
representative government and has
no confidence in the ability of Un
people to find men svho will con
scientiously, and free from the in
fluence of the "money power,"
represent them in pieparing and
voting legislation. He would take
away from courts, because he dis
trusts the ability of nidges to resist
the malign influence of the money
power," the power to enforce their
own orders until a jury has been
called to teSI the court whether (In
order has been disobeyed, and thus
in practice, though not in theory.
the jury would come to pass on the
correctness and justice of the
court's order. Hon. Win. H.
Taft at Columbus, Ohio,
Yom Kippur, the day of atone
ment of the Jewish race, wns ob
served here Sunday, lasting from
sunset to sunset. This is the most
solemn day in the Jewish calendar
and as to its significance an au
thority says: "No other day in
the Ilebiew caleudai is doweled
with a wealth ol suggestive thought
that can even approximately rival
the Day ol tonemetit. It is the
epitome of the highest and most
saned teachings ol ludaism. Kv
ei v minor key of the faith finds an
echo i:i the melody of this dn's
gieetings. No other celebiation
brings home with such lorce the
fact that, notwithstanding all the
diffeieuces of opinion in piactke
ludaism represents one grand
whole. The Day of Atonement
emphasizes the strong unity un
derlying all shades of ewish ie
ligious diffciences ." In our mod
ern times it has certainh lost none
ol its power. Whetever else has
yielded to the iriepiessihle tend
ency ol change with which the roll
ing years ate gifted, this day has
scaped the late which has relega
ted to the lumber-room ol loi gotten
ideas and disregnided practices so
much of what constituted the hope
and lile ol lewish fatlieis. The
Dav ol Atonement is the meat field
of Israel. However thin the tin end
which max bind the individual to
the lewish communitv, on this da
he leels its tension. The Day ol
Atonement brings out cleat I v that
the vital principles ol ludaism
have preserved an unbroken liont.
It accentuates the idea that luda
ism is a phenomenon which ma-
tei ialism cannot explain, to the
triumph ol ideas over In utc tuice. 1

The Albuquerque Daily
has gone down, lust before clos-
ing its lournalist.c career in the
the territory the management gave
out the following announcement:
mis is tne last issue ol the Uaily
livening Sun; we are lorced to this
stand on account ot
the
ournahTn(t wiM ,)t
Publishing Co., ol Albuquerque
breaking a contract existing be
tween said company and and the
Sun Publishing Co. In various
ways these violations have ruined
our circulation and prevented us
from keeping contracts with sub
scribers and advertisers. We will
therefore arrange to re-open our
paper with our own plant, in the
near luture, and publish a morning
and evening paper." The last,
but not the least important para
graph of the Sun's final statement
is as follows: "All indebtedness
will be paid at our office, 114,
South Fourth St., Albuquerque,
N. M." This failure of a demo
cratic daily in Albuquerque is not
unexpected, since the field was al
ready covered by two enterprising
daily newspapers, the Journal and
the Citizen, and it appears a
though the Sun was at the begin
ning a political abortion which
should have expected nothing else
thaH what has been measured out
to them from the people of the ter
ritory of New Mexico. There are
a good manv people who can edit
a newspaper from the curb, and
are always ready and willing to tell
the other fellow how the thing
should b- done, but when the

There is a difference between dinn
ing out editorial matter daily,
month after month, year after year,
and simply writing a few para
graphs on some famibar vir.,-ct.
That it is not all roses in the news

clusion ol many an unfortunat
"cuss" who has made a dive in
the business knowing nothing
about it.
The democratic slogan ol "Let
the People Rule" sounds better
every day. It is becoming more
nnd more evident to the thinkers
that the people will continue to
rule during the next four years
lust as they have since the immor
tal William McKlnley wrested the
vuumry irom the Plighting grasp
of the Democratic party and re
stored it to prosperity after the
Cleveland administration of tariff
tinkering had well nigh wrecked
the very foundations of our busi

twelve years ago.

SAYS TAFT WILL WIN.
"1 think Mi. Talt will win the
presidential election by a good
majority, and don't believe we are
likelv to have a Democratic House
owing to the local political ques
tions," writes John Schroers, tin
Western editor to the New York
Herald from London. Mr. Schto
ers until recently was the manag
ing editor of the St. Louis Times
and several other western papers.
Close touch with the drift ol sen
timent on the presidential situation
in the west where Hrvan has been
able to get a hearing and regarded
as his stronghold has convinced
Mr. Schroers that the Nebraskan
with all his acrobatic hipnodrom
ing is still unable to hoodwink tin
people.
JUDGE TAFT IS
COUNTRY'S NEGD.
Any sign of revival ol good
times Hist now is the most unwel
come thing possible to Hrvan.
To most ears the hum of industry
is music but to Hrvan it is a fun-
eral peal. He would like nothing
better than to have every wheel

Said M. C. Huyette, Buffalo
representative ol the Murphv Iron
Works: "The country needs a
steady hand at the wheel iust now.
It needs Taft. 'To anyone who
has studied the situation it is plain
that the workingman who votes
against protection is voting blindly.
hatever may be said in favor of !
Bryan, he is a theorist. He has;
never been on the constructive or 1
productive side of life.
K. R. Thomas, president ol the!
Thomas Motor Car Companv, en
tertains much the same views
haul he: To lower the tarifl to ;
a revenue basis on automobiles
would mean ruination to the in
dustry or reducing wages ol the '
workingman. There are no two !
ways about it. French mechanics
get from to to 15 cents an hour'
and in Germany the same scale j
practically prevails, while I m '
Buffalo pay ordinary lal.or 25 rents ,
an hour and the best from ,5 to 50
cents an hrwsr. French rnanufac-'
Hirers are establishing plants mi
Itah where labor is paid from - to 1
ia cents an hour. Twent-one.
automobile factories have been es
lavished in Milan alone, most ol
which use French capital.
BRYAN AND THE JUDICIARY
While Mr. Bryan policies, fin-1
ancul and economic, are danger-!
,:" i aiarm the entiri
business community, they are real
ly less ominous than his attitude
toward the American ludichm.
Mr. Jirvan s perpetual candidacv
is a protest, not only against es
tablished laws, but against the
rule and processes by which the
laws are interpreted. He pro
poi.es a radical curtailment ol the
jiowers ol our courts whereby
those tribunals would be shorn ol
prerogatives which are essential to
the correct and expeditious admin
istration ol nistice, The inevit
able effect ol his scheme for jury
trials in cases ol indirect contempt
would be to destroy the indepen
dence ol the Bench and deprive it
of a function which is a vital ee
ment ol iiidicial authority. To
hold that an order in n case ol con
tempt should be enforced only af
ter it has been approved by a jury
is as absurd as it would be to in
sist that a sentence imposed upon
a defendant convicted of grand
larceny should also be suspended
until it had lx:en reviewed by n
jury. The analogy is clear nnd
exact. Mr. Bryan seeks to strip
tue judicial omce 01 an important
function and transfer it to the piry.
This, however, is the lenst peril
ous feature of Mr. Bryan's pro
gram to impair the Judicinry.
His influence as an agitator has
been exerted to excite public dis
trust of our courts, to undermine
the abiding confidence ol the peo
ple in their integrity and to incul-
cate the base belief that thejf great
powers have been exercised (or the
advantage ol the few at the ex
pense of the many. He has in
sinuated that justices vl our high
est ttibunals are appointed with a I
view to their usefulness to great
private interest. and in disregard
lor the public welfare. He has
hinted that their degrees 011 impor
tant constitutional questions have
been controlled by improper influ
ences nnd he has made it reason
ably clear that in the event ! his
election he would appoint as nidges
nl the Federal coutts none but men
upon whom he could depend to up
hold, his disciedited policies il oc
casion should aiise.
Mi. Hrvan m-oiK at the pnptihu
compact which stipulates that out
courts shall be kept sucied tioiiii
p.utian ctiticism. He cares noth
ing lot the fact that the people
have, almost liom the bitth ol the
republic, agreed that 0111 legal
tribunals shall be held above the
tivaln ol pattv controveisv. The:
whole tendency ol his utterances
has been to belittle the integrity
and wisdom ol our courts in the
respect ol the people. Instead ol
teaching that our legal tribunals
should be kept above suspicion he
has subiected them to irresponsible
partizau criticism and contention.
In the event ol his election to
the Presidency Mr. Hrvan prob
ably would have to appoint four
Mistices of the I'uited States Su
preme Court and ol a much larger
number of nidges lor the lower
branches ol the Federal ludiciarv.
To entrust him with a power ol
such grave import in its possible
consequences is a proposal Irom
which thoughtltil citizens will
shrink in alarm. It would place
in a position ol vast inlluence over
our highest legal tribunal a politi-
cnl agitator ol immature judgment
and untried doctrines who has done
moir to impair popular confidence
in the American ludiciarv than any
other man of our times
