WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-There il good
reason TO believe hat the President will
be sounded during the next week or so
by Ohio politicians in an effort TO learn
whether he favors William II. Taft, Seore-
tsry of War. for selection as the standard
bearer of the Republican party in the next
national campaign. For many weeks the

ton that Mr.. Taft il Mr.. RooseveIt's choice
for the Presidential nomination in 1908.
Out in Ohio there is a very lively faction
hat is opposed 70 further advancement
for Senator Joseph Benson Foraker, who
is identified with the wing of the party
that has control of the organization. II
has been reported for a long time, and is
accepted a. gospel by q good many political
Observer, that il Mr.. Foraker wants the
Ohio delegation 70 the Republican conven-
ton he can have it. However, according
TO sdvices received here, the idea is spread
ing in Ohio that Mr.. Foraker is not in the
running. and IL the State is to land the Presi-
dental nomin ation il must tie up TO Mr..
Taft. Friends of Mr.. Taft such as Repre-
sentatives Burton and Southland and Harry
Dougherty. who stands high with the party
in Ohio, are among those who believe that
il an expression can be obtained from the
President favorable to Mr.. Taft Mr.. For
aker will stand aside They figure that
il the President lets it be known that he
would like 10 see his Secretary Of Wal sue
coed him in the White House, State pride
in Ohio will force Mr.. Foraker to sacrifice
himself for Mr.. Taft.
