William H. Taft, the next Presi-
dent of the United States. gave
North Dakota visit Monday, re-
ceiving the greatest ovation that has
been given the distinguished gentle
man since he left Cincinnati, O., for
his campaign tour.
James johnson Of this city, Chair
man of the Republican Central Com.
mittee of the state went to Grand
Forks Sunday night and Monday
morning, Joined by J.. B. Hanna,
Congressman Gronna, and Congress
man Marshall, and the Secretary OF
the Republican state committee.
The party went to Crookston, where
the Taft special train was met and
the party escorted the distinguished
guest into the state. A stop was
made at Grand Forks, Taft making
three addresses. He arrived at 1880
o'clock and spoke for five minutes
from the steps Of the Y. M. c. A.
building, to the largest crowd that
eyr gathered in Grand Forks. Taft
looked over the great throng OF
people and then remarked, II knew
that you raised wheat by the acre up
here in North Dakota, but l didn't
know before that this is the way you
grow people" This created a lot Of
good humor in the crowd. Taft
spokt upon the solid Republican prin-
ciples, looking the crowd right in
the eye, and no one can look upon
his honest face, and doubt that Taft
will do just what he promises. Taft
is no great orator, but he is a clear
thinker and talks right from the
shoulder. He told the crowd that
they know upon what principles he
stood, and that if they did not want
him to see that those principles
were carried out, then they should
not vote for him.
Taft also spoke fifteen minutes at
Jacks opera house, and 20 minutes
at the Metropolitan opera house.
