REPUBLICAN, VIEW OF TAFT MOVEMENT.

The New York Press. the most out spoken republican newspaper in pro i testing against corporation rule speaks right out in meeting on the Taft prop osition. The Press says: We are not at all in sympathy with the at tempt to nominate for president Secre- tary Taft in Washington one year ahead of the republican national con ventiun, and we have the gravest doubts of his abilit yto carry New York state. with it's thirty-nine cleo toral votes, and other states which are absolutely essential to the sue cess of the party next year. But we have no hesitation in saying that 1t is to his very large credit that be re- fuses to sign the agreement by which it was arranged that the Foraker crowd should support Taft for pres ident and the Taft party ForaRer for reelection to the United States sen ate. In every state in the union there should be war on the Foraker type, which serves the corporations so faithfully and so ably that we have obtained from congress so far legisla- ton against them that. compared with what Governor Hughes is achieving in New York, is only mockery. There can be no genuine reform of the evil conditions and practices that afflict our industrial and financial life until the Forakers. whether in Ohio, Rhode Island. New Jersey or anywhere else, are dismissed ln disgrace from the public service. We should be the last newspaper in the world to deny to Secretary Taft the credit that will be his if he does his share al this late day in the work of cleaning out the Forakers Yet it is only fair to con sider how little Mir Taft has ever done 10 better in his own state condi- tions that have not been surpassed anywhere for corruption. scandal and infamy He has held public office for many. many years. but until President Roosevelt decreed that his residuary legatee should be the secretary oi war the ohioan never .feit called upon to fight in his own state the political iniquities of Foraker and Boss Cox On the contrary. most of the years that he spent in public office wer, by gift and license of the cox-Foralel mac,.fHe It is because the easy-go ing Tafts have SO long endured Fora kers. sharing office with them. thai virtually nothing has been accom- plished in national way towars checking corporation abuses

The poetry in him came out in nearly everything
he did with unqualified force. and never more
Interestingly than in his landscapes. Under his
brush, in fact landscape and poetry became one.
Look, for example. at either Of the two studies
natural forms, but both show more the de-
sire Of the painter to interpret the subtlor as
poets Of nature. her mystery and her glamour.
The mere facts were never enough TO satisfy
him. There are purely pastoral subjects
in this book study OF farm buildings at Fresh
water. and a View in Surrey" which suggest
that he was not Indifferent Ia the simpler side
Of Landscape, to just the sweetness and simple
ity that it holds. But mostly he painted the
heroic masses Of great mountains, vast spaces
Of sky above iIimitable stretches OF sea II he
could give imaginative hint Of something
grand and awe inspiring in his work so much
the better. Witness the sonbre mountain study
called "Ararat" Witness the impression OF
prismatic splcndors After the Deluge." which
even in the little halftone somehow touches US
with a sense Of supernatural beauty. The pict-
ure Of THE Sphinx" is not what the ordinary
painter would have made H. Watts makes IL a
kind Of vision Of the desert His Ncapolitan
paintings do not laugh and dance with light and
color. but are almost gloomy, and his picture
Of mountain and valley THE Savoy" has in it
the bIeakncss Of tragedy. His soul brooded over
Iandscape as it brooded over the noble figures
Of Scripture, poetry and romance. and these tran
scrirts from nature that he made are, like his
hotter known compositions, works of creative
art rather than Of observation
