The principal opponents of Taft are
the labor unions and the beet sugar
interests. Sugar beet men are oppos-
ed to him because of his Philippine
tariff policy The secretary has fought
yaliantly for a reduction in the tarih
on Philippine sugar, and has not yet

strongly Republican, they would prob
ably be strongly opposed to the noml-
