The danger to American democracy lies not In the least In tha concentration of adminis trative power In responsible and ac countable hands. It Ilea In having the power Insufficiently concentrated, ao that no one can be held responsible to the people for its use. Labor. There are many matters affecting labor and the status of the wage-work- •r to which I should like to draw your attention, but an exhauatlvo discus sion of the problem In all Its aspect# la not now necessary. This adminis tration la nearing its end; and. more over under our lorm of government the solution of the problem depends upon the action of the states as much as upon the action of t*he nation. Never theless. there ure certain considera tions which I wish to set before you, because I hop* that our people will more and more keep them in mind. A blind and Ignorant resistance to every effort for the reform of abuses end for the readjustment of society to mod ern Industrial conditions representsn'it true conservatism but an Incitement to the wildest radicalism; for wlso radi calism and wise conservatism go hand In hand, one bent on progress, the other bent on seeing that no change Is made unless In the right direction. I believe in a steady effort, or per haps it would be more accurate to any In steady efforts In many different directions, to bring about a condition of affairs under which men who work with hand of with brain, the laborers, the fuperlntendents, the men who pro duce for the market and tho men who find a market for the article* -pro duced, chall own. a far greater snare than at present of the wealth they produce, end be enabled to invest It In the tools and Instruments by which all work Is carried on. As far as possible I hope to see a frank rec ognition of the advantages conferred by machinery, organization, and divi sion of labor, accompanied by an ef fort to bring about a larger share In the ownership by wage-worker of rail way, mill, and factory. Thero must be prohibition of child labor, diminution of womag labor, shortening of hours of all mwhonlcal labor: stock watering should be pro hibited. and stock gambling so far as Is possible discouraged. There should be a progressive Inheritance tax on large fortunes. Industrial education should be encouraged. As far as pos sible we should lighten the burden of taxation on the small man. We should put a premium upon thrift, hard work, and business energy; but these quali ties cease to be the main factors In accumulating a fortune long before that fortune reaches a point where It would be seriously affected by any in heritance tax such as I propose. It Is eminently right that the nation should fix the terms upon which the great fortunes are inherited. They rare'.;* do good and they often do harm Vo those who Inherit them in their en tirety. - Protection for Waae-Worksrs. There is one matter with which the congress should deal at this session. There should no longer be any palter- 1 Ing with the question of taking care of the wage-workers who. under our present Industrial system, becomo kill ed, crippled, or worn out an part of the regular Incidents of a given busi ness. The majority of wage-workers must have their right* secured for them by state action: but the national government should legislate in thor oughgoing and far-reaching fashion not only for all employes of tho na tional government, but for all parsons engaged In Interstate commerce. The object nought for could bo achieved to a measurable degree, as far as those killed or crippled are concerned, by proper employers* liability lawa. As far as concerns those who have been worn out, I call your attention to the fact that definite steps toward pro viding old-age pensions have been taken in many of our private Indus trie*. These may be Indefinitely ex tended through voluntary aseoelatlon and contributory schemes, or through the agoncy pf savings banks, as under the recent Massachusetts plan. To strengthen these practical measures should be our Immediate duty; it la not at present necessary to consider the larger and more general govern mental schemes that most European BLOOD POISON _ it. aching hones, uicere.

The Courts, Pending a thoroughgoing investIgn tlon and action there Is oertaln leg islation which should be enacted at once. I most earnestly urge upon the congress the duty of increasing the totally Inadequate salaries now given to our Judges. On the whole there Is uo body of public servants who do as valuable work, nor whose moneyed reward la so Inadequate com pared to their work. Beginning -with the supreme court the Judges should have their salaries doubled. It 1* not befitting tho dignity of the nation that Its must honorod public servants should he paid sums so small com pared to what they would earn In private life that tho performance of public ssrvlco by ahem Implies ar exceedingly heavy pecuniary g*crl earnestly to be desired that flee. It Is earnestly to _ . _ somo method should' be devised for doing away with tho long delays which now obtain In tho administra tion of justice, and which operate with peculiar severity against persona of •mall means, and favor only the very criminals whom It Is most desirable to punish. These long delays In the final declalons of cases make. In the aggregate a crying evil, and a reme dy should be devised. Much of this Intolerable delay is due to Improper regard paid to technicalities which are a mere hindrance to Justice. In some noted recent cnaea thla over-regard for technicalities has resulted In a striking denial of justice, and flagrant wrong to the body politic. Tho wageworkers, tho workingmen, the laboring men of tho country by the way In which they repudiated tho effort to get them to cant their votes In response to an appeal to elasa ha tred. have emphasized their sound pa- trlotlsm and Americanism. Tho whole country has cause to feel pride In this attitude of sturdy Independence in this uncompromising Insistence upon acting simply as good citizens, as good Americans, without regard to fancied—and Improper—class inter ests. Such an attitude Is an object lesson In good citizenship to the entire nation. » But tho extreme reactionaries, the persons who blind themselves to the wrongs now and then committed by the courts on laboring men. should also think seriously as to what such a movement as this portends. The' Judges who have shown themselves’ able and willing effectively to check' tho dishonest activity of the very, rich man who works Iniquity by the mismanagement of corporations, who have shown themselves alert to do Justice to tho wageworker, and aym- pathetlc with the needs of tho 'hisM of our people, «o that tho dweller In the tenement houses, the man who practice* a dangerous trade, the man who is crushed by excessive hours of labor, fee I that their needs are un derstood by the courts—theap judges are the real bulwark, of the courts; these Judges, the Judge* of the stamp of the president-elect, who have been fearless In opposing labor when It has f ;one wrong, but fearless aiso In hold- ng to strict account corporations that work Iniquity, and far-sighted In see ing that tne workingman gets hie 1 rights, are the men of oil others to whom wo owe It that the appeal for such violent and mistaken legislation has fallen on deaf ears, that tho agi tation for Its passage provfift to be without substantial basis. The courts ere Jeoparded primarily by the action of these federal and state Judges who show inability or unwillingness to put a atop to the wrongdoing of vary rich men under modern Industrial condi tions. and Inability or unwillingness to give relief to men of email means or wngeworkora who aro crushed down by these modern Industrial con ditions; who.

Every judicial duel- •Ion Involves two term*—one, an in terpretation of the law; thu other, the undemanding of the facts to which It la to bo applied, Th6 great mass ot our Judicial officers are 1 believe allvo to these changes ot conditions which so materially affect th» performance of their Judicial duties, our Judicial system Is sound and effective at core, and it remains, and must , ever be maintained, as the safeguard 'of those principles of liberty and Juatlco which stand at the foundation of American Institutions; for. Burfco finely said, when liberty and Justice are separated, neither Is safe. There are, however, aomo members of the Judicial body who have lagged behind In their un derstanding of these great and vital change* In the body politic, whoso minds have nover been opened to the new applications of tho old principles made necessary by the new conditions. Judges of this stamp do lasting barm by their decisions, because they con vince poor men in need of protection that the courts of the land aro pro foundly Ignorant of and out of sym pathy with their needs, nnd profoundly Indifferent or hostile to any propos ed remedy. To such men It seems a cruel mockery to have any court deddo against them on the ground that It desires to preserve "liberty** In a pure, ly technical form, by withholding lib erty in any real and constructive sense. It Is desirable chat the legislative body should possess, and wherever neces sary exercise, the power to, determine whether In a given case employers and rmployta are not on an equal footing, so that the necessities of the latter compel them to submit to such exac tlon* as to hnuni and conditions ot Inbor n* .unduly to tax their strength; and only mischief can result when such determination I* upset on the ground that thero must be no "Intereforence with tho liberty to contract**—ofton b merely academic ‘‘liberty,'* the exer cise of which is the negation of real liberty. There are. certain decisions by vari ous courts which have be*n exceed ingly detrimental to th* right* of wage- workers. This Is true of all the de cisions that deetdo thst men and wo men are, by rite constitution, "guatnn teed their liberty” to contract to en ter a dangerous occupation, or to work an undesirable or Improper number of hours, or to work In unhealthy sur roundings; and therefore can not re cover damage* when maimed in that occupation, and cun not t»e forbidden to work what tho legislature decides Is nn oxcesslvo number of hour*, or to icarry on thb work under conditions which the legislature decides to be un healthy. The most dangerous occu pations are often the (poorest paid and those where the hours of work aro longest; 'and In many cases those who go Into them ere driven by necessity so great that they hAvs practloally no alternative. Decision* auch a* those alluded to above nullify the legislative effort to protect the wage-worker* who most need protection from those em ployer* who take advantage of their grinding need. They halt or hamper the movement fop securing better and more equitable conditions of labor. The talk about preserving to the mis ery-hunted beings who make contracts for such service their “liberty" to make them. Is to speak In a spirit of heart less irony op ,«l#e to snow nn utter lack of knowledge of the condition# of llfa among the great masses of fellow-countrymen, a. lack which a Judge to do good service Just would unfit any executive or legisla tive officer. _ ^ , There Is also, T think, ground for the belief that substantia!

Our great cluster* of corporations, huge trusts nnd fabulously wealthy multi-millionaire*, employ the very best lawyers they i-an obta | n to pick haws In those statutes after their passage; but they also em ploy a class of secret agents who seek, undi-r the advtab of experts, to render hostile legislation Innocuous by making t unconstitutional, often through th* insertion of what appear oh thrir face fi™*tic P** ■w®®p!ng provisions against tho Interests of the pnrtles In spiring thorn; while the demagogues, the corrupt creatures who Introduce black- innMIng schemes to "strike corporation#, and all who dsmaml extreme, and unde- 2l?. ,,ly measures, show them- solvt-s to be the worst enemies of th* very public whose loud-mouthed cham pions they profess to be.

We havo spent hundreds of millions of dollar* upon these water ways, yet the truffle on nearly all ol them Is steadily declining. This condi tion is the direct roitult of the absence of any comprehenelve and far-sccing plan of waterway Improvement.
