AT THE HOTELS.

Itstatements that they viii have a 'igs
bin Ohio next year. unless this fFelioa
, between the Foraker and Taft toIf
stopped. Just what Is behind thar'eUa
il have not yet been able TO dete9'He'
kbut in my opinion it, is ridiculop %
Bsee two such big men feInbroiied IN ssicH
"a smaIIucontenuon."
Henry Towne Baunon, member Of pm
gress from the Tenth district OF 60
dropped into the willard yesterday afsE-
noon on a business mission and ehsred
for a,fewlminutes ontOhio politics, Nfeh
seemed to haves been causing him 30
concern.
taft is ore ofithe fnestsmen our sf-e
1as ever produced but he has chosep
fOeman worthy of his steel when he t
Aters the. arena with Foraker. Both has
&anch friends. who would prefeT
sacrifice the peace and harmony of
STATE, and give the, Democrats the c-aarf
they desire, rather than leave for q na
usent Athet standardsAof their. chosen leg
ers.
1T seems to me the simplest az
easiest thing in the world for the IfofakF
forces TO cclainryTa TaItias the Preside ntlai

Washington. where they arrived from the
Jamestown Exposition. They were quar-
tered at the AIRING ton. Gov. Guild. be-

Thus far, Massach hUsetts has been the
only state 70 send her governor 20 the
exposiuO and whetIar II repaid Massa-

uelations between Virginia and Aiassa-
,husetts have always been very close
although they appear 70 have been
against each other on almost every i'm
pCgtant question. In the old days, how
ever, Otis and Patrick Henry stood side
by side and jefferson and Adams-yOu
know how close they were. In al other
yays, and even down u our own day,
there is something akin in the feelings
and traditions OF theftwO States, land each
