she rented an ancestral palace for the
Mrs. Letter was returning
the call of much betitled neighbor,
when she was shown through the
premises. The kitchen garden was
particularly attractive, and she ad-
mired the vegetables and small fruits,
and when her host said that he would
send basket to her carriage she
gladly acquiesced. .:
A few days after, the same lord
called over the phone and asked if
she would have other vegetables and
fruits, and not liking to refuse the
courtesy of a live lord, she assented.
This continued for a month or more,
when one day she received a bill from
my lords steward which made her
open her eyes. She had been charged
a good round sum for every article
which had been sent.
Mrs. Letter paid the bill, but imme-
diately after she called up her thrifty
'neighbor, insisted on speaking to him
personally, and she asked sweetly
how he was selling garden stuff, be-
cause if his prices were exorbitant she
would send to the market in the fu-
ture.

closer to the chance Of getting the Re-
publican nomina tion for the presidency
than any other man. Not that there
are not plenty of other candidates.
Root is one, SO is Fairbanks, Beveridge
and perhaps Cannon, but of all these
the leader is Taft.
Even without having been chosen to
restore order out of the Cuban chaos,
Taft had the best expectations, but the
publicity that will come to him in the
next few months and the virtual GER
tainey that he will be successful in re-
storing a satisfactory condition in the
Pearl of the Antilles makes the specu-
presidents an interesting one.
Taft has long wanted to go on the

WILL CUBA PROVE
CHANCE FOR TAFT
ITDID FOR ROOSEVELT

The Spanish-American war in Cuba
sent Theodore Roosevelt to the presi-
dency. Will the present trouble in
the isle of unrest do the same for
William H. Taft? It is a question that
interests the whole American people
and suggests train of condolences.
Before the Maine went to the bot
tom of Havana harbOr no one had seri-
orsly entertained the idea that Roose
welt might some day occupy the chair
of Washington and Lincoln.
The New Yorker, originally re-
former, whom the regulars regarded
with suspicion, had acquitted himself
with credit as commissioner of police
in New York city, and was regarded as
a man Of ability, but no stretch of i'm
agination had pictured him as one to
suddenly vault into the governorship
of the Empire state, the vice presiden-
cy, and finally the presidential chair
by the biggest majority ever given to
candidate for the Office.
The glory that came with the de-
scent on Cuba, the rough rider halo,
did all this for Theodore Roosevelt It
discovered to the American people
that he was a man of capacity in all
directions. He has borne the subse-
Quent test, and deserved his honors,
but it cannot be denied that without
the events Of the brief struggle in
Cuba he might never have been men,
toned for the highest office in the land
Taft went to Cuba on different err
rand. Roosevelt went there as man of
war, Taft for peace, but the Ohio man
ought to find a happy augury in the
experience of the present incumbent
of the White House.
The Spanish-American war brought
Taft, like Roosevelt, to the front as
man of varied abilities. He had been
an able member of the Ohio bar, and
had quickly been elevated to the bench
by Gov. Foraker. Then President Har~
rison made him solicitor general of
the United States, from which place

Unappreciated Sympathy.

II don't. think my self-sufi iciency

did recently remarked an intelligent
and bright-faced young woman who
holds down chair in one of the ex-
ecutive departments. "A party of
tourists were going through our build

sort of thing, though it does make us

he resigned to accept a United States
judgship in the Sixth judicial district.
This was where he stood when
President Mckinley, always partial to
the men Of his native state, asked
him to accept the craftsmanship of the
Philippine commission at a time when
the problem that the commission had
to solve was the most vexed before the
country. Taft had been an able, USE
full citizen, and an ideal Judge, but he
was in no sense a national figure until,
from motives of purest patriotism, he
resigned his cougenial place on the
bench to go to the Philippines.
Taft's work in the Philippines called
perhaps for more skill and diplomacy
than any phase of the tangle following
the struggle with Spain, but the 297
pound Ohioan threw himself into the
the task with splendid enthusiasm, and
did all that was required, using his
famous smile and perpetual good ma
ture as a balm to soothe away the
hurts. He danced at a public ball
given in his honor on his arrival, and
the way he piloted his bulk through
the mazes of the Spanish fandango, de-
lighted the Filipinos more than could

1t must not be understood that
Taft's work in the Philippines was all
plain sailing by any means. Gen. Chat

keeping the islands under strict mill
tary law. Taft though policy of pac-
ification better; Chaffee argued that
to ease up in the least bit would be to
forfeit al that had been gained by the
dangerous and costly work of months.

and the Filipi1os, soon came to look
upon him as their greatest friend.
