Very likely the friends Of the Foraker
presidential boom are exceedingly graf
fled over the statement Of Secretary
Taft concerning. his atentions regarding
the presidency. with Taft out of the
way Foraker can claim the support of
Ohio for his boom undisDuted.
But. the friends Of. the other gentlemen
who are harboring presidential aspira-
tons should not bank too heavily on
Secretary Taft's statement. The prin-
cipal thing he says is that he is pretty
well satisfied with being cabinet offs
Ger and that he does not intend to jump
out and make an active campaign for
the presidential nomination. He does
not say. however. that he would not
be candidate under favorable condf-
tons. In fact he seems TO have avoided
making such a statement. The nearest
he comes to it is to call attention to a
previous statement that he had no in
tention of becoming a candidate.
Judge TAFT may yet have to be
reekoned with in nominating the next
Republican candidate for the presidency.
He has said nothing that viii bar him
from becoming a candidate should the
way seem open for him to do so-and a
great many things can happen between

dERoNIE.s CHANCES

Things political in New York seem
to be shaping themselves more favor
ably to the reelection of William Trav-
ers Jerome as district attorney in New
York than seemed likely ten days ago.
The Republican nominee for that Of
flee has withdrawn from the race. and
now the Republicans have no choice
except to vote for Jerome or the can
didate on either the Hearst or Tam
many tickets, or not vote at all. Most
Of them viii vote for Jerome.
There was no possible show for the
candidate on the Republican ticket. Ii
was conceded that a large portion of
the Republican strength would go to
Jerome. who is running as an indie
pendent candidate. The grafters among
the New York Republicans viii, OF
course, vote against him. but he will
also get a big vote from those Demo
Gratis who are not dominated BY Tam
many, and this VIII more than offset
the Republican grafters. The thing
that works against him most is that his
position on the ballot viii be in the
independent column. and those whC
vote for him will have to vote for every
other candidate Of their choice in.

THE TELEPHONE.

Do you know that when the tele-
phone was first Invented and put on
the market only twenty eight years ago
the first circulars announcing it were
not very strong in their statements ?
Here is one paragraph:
"Fhe proprietors of the telephone,
the invention of Alexander Graham
Bell, for which patents have been is
sued by the United States and Great
Britain, are now prepared to furnish
telephones for the transmission of ar
ticulate speech through instruments
not more than twenty miles apart.
Conversation can be easily carried on
after slight practice and with the &C.
caslonal repetition of word or SEN
tence. On first listening to the tele-
phone, though the sound is perfectly
audible, the articulation seems to be
indistinct; but after few trials the
ear becomes accustomed to the pecu-
liar sound and finds little difficulty in
understanding the words"
Today it is possible to talk half way
across the continent and a trunk line
is now building through to the Pacific
which will probably make it possible
to talk from Portland Me, to Port
land. Oregon. There are two million
telephones in daily use, and the scope
of their utility is tremendous.
Yet most OF this development has
been accomplished in the last ten OF
twelve years. AS long as the original
Bell company had a monopoly on the
telephone because of it's patents, the
business was not developed, but as
soon as the original patents expired
and competition became open, the tele-
phone business developed to the great
advantage of the public.
The moral is obvious
