The article focuses on several political issues in the United States. The President's discussion of the Supreme Court's Anti-Trust decisions, in his speech to the Detroit Board of Commerce, was not only marked by the clear reasoning which distinguishes all his remarks on judicial or Constitutional questions, but also was particularly timely. U.S. President William Howard Taft leaves no doubt as to his own view of the matter. The "Wiley case" is disposed of by the President, in a letter to Secretary James Wilson, presenting the whole subject with admirable clearness and with perfect judicial poise. President's letter makes it absolutely clear that even as regards any technical violation of the law, convict Harvey W. Wiley was wholly innocent.
