what SENATOR
FORAKER SAYS
AN oRPoRTuNisr IN POLITICS
with GREAT FAITH IN HIS
iypivipuAL STRENGTH.

Washington Dispatch TO New York
Evening Post.
While Senator Joseph B. Foraker
is not an ayowed candidate for the
Presidency OF the United States, he
is candidate. nevertheless. The
Ohio man doubtless has small hopes
that he can accomplish the end Of
success, but there is q motive in his
candidacy above and beyond the graft.
flying of personal Presidential ambi.
tons. Washington men who know
Foraker believe that he viii be AS
well satisfied with one outcome OF his
efforts to secure the nomination as he
viii be with the other. In short. Mr..
Foraker's candidacy for high Office is
as much for the purpose Of prevent
ing the nomination Of an administra-
don supporter, as It Is for the pur.
pose of securing honors for himself.
There is a growing belief that the
senior Ohio Senator will be able to
control his States delegation to the
national convention. He may not have
the delegation solidly, for the unit
rule does not prevail in Republican
politics in Ohio. but 1t is considered
probable that the great majority Of
the men who will go to the Republican
convention from the Buckeye stats
will cast their ballots for Mr.. Foraker
until he gives them the word to cast
them for some other candidate of HIS
choosing. 1t is perhaps needless to
say that this candidate will not be al
strong upholder of the policies OF Pres.
ident Roosevelt.
Senator Foraker is an opportunist in
politics. He knows nothing OF political
arithmetic. He has in his own State
time and again secured the control of
things political from leaders who had
added up the delegates and had found
that the sum total showed a solid col.
umn of opposition to the Senator. In
the last State convention in Ohio For.
aker practically re-assumed the lead.
ership of his party when the mathema-
ticians had proved to their own salts.
faction that the sum Of subtraction
from the strength Of Foraker which
they had done showed conclusiyely
that he was left a minus quantity.
The Senator made speech. and the
followers of the opposition said: "This
man is our leader and they accepted
him and left the other, leaders with
nothing but their pencils and their pa.
per pads for comfort.
There is as much of the hurrah
method to Mr.. Foraker's plans Of cam.
paigning to-day as there was in the
days of his youth and his middle age.
Whatever hope he may have Of secur.
ing the Presidential nomination is the
hope that at the end things may come
with a rush. Why they may come he
can't tell, for preparation is absolute.

faith born Of previous experience

way. ~ $. = ~
