While in the loss of Elihu Root
the country loses one OF it's
ablest secretaries of war, a man
who, with the exception OF Stan
ton, undoubtedly met the great
est problems Of any war secre-
tary since the foundation of the
government, yet it acquires in
the person Of Ex-Governor Taft
an ad mireable acquisition to the
Cabinet. With success stamped
upon everything he has hereto
fore undertaken. it will be a dis
tinct disappointment to the
country if Secretary Taft does
not fully occupy the great posi-
ton oil our war portfolio. The
friends of Judge Taft prophesy
a brilliant future-success in his
new position, and later either the
presidency or a justiceship on
the supreme bench.
