REPUBLICAN DIFFERENCES
A NEWSPAPER CRITICISM.
(Received Last Night, 5.5 o'clock.;
LONDON, April 28. The Times, commenting upon th# United States Presidential contest, states that no difference between tho Republicans and Democrats is so marked as that between the Republic in X Party's two wings.
Tho Times asks: "Will the.Republican Party appeal to the country as a. Radical or a Conservative force? Mr Roosevelt's nomination would imply a, Radical-Republican platform, and its almost certain consequences, a Con-servative-Democratic candidate. President Taft'a nomination will almost as certainly produce a Radical asr a Democratic antagonist. The difference between Mr Roosevelt and President Taft is manifest most acutely In. connection with the powers of Stat© Courts/The discussion raises the gravest issues. If the political' power which the State Courts derive from ;.-. \he present rights of interpreting the. * law be an offence to tho iDemocracy, ' will not the time come when the.'polittical power conferred up&ii the Suprenio Court by the Federal cion also seem an offence? Mr Roosevelt's policy is calculated to raise these speculations. Hence the horror vith which it is met." '
