he has been hustling ever since. His
first employment was. as waiter in
the eating-house attached to the old
union railway station in this city.
From that position he rose to become
manager and later proprietor of the
place. His political start dates from
1886, when he was elected auditor of
Marion county, the first democrat
elected to the position since the war.
As county chairman he carried the
county against Benjamin Harrison in
1888, despite the fact that this was
Mr.. Harrison's home county. This
led to Taggart's appointment to the
craftsmanship of the state committee
and later to the craftsmanship of the
national committee. His rise in pol
itics, rapid though it was, did not
keep pace with his accumulation Of
wealth. The wealth of the barefooted
boy of forty years ago is now esti-
