\ and Fair Play.

To THE EDITOR OF The suN-Sir: Il will
not hit q man when he is down for all the
votes In the United States" Thus spoke
william H. Taft when asked TO pass judg-
mcnt upon his enemy Foraker. All fair
minded Americans must not only admire
the sentiment expressed but must admit
the sincerity Of the expression. which. un-
like the cleverly coined catch phrase Shall
the people ruler" rings true; and the spon-
taneity attached to il proves beyond a doubt
that 1t proceeded straight from the heart
of the man who uttered 1t. and whose fair
and honest mature 1t 90 perfectly charac-
~terizes.
The phrase Il will not hit a man when he
10 down. not only deserves to be written
boldly upon the Republican standard In
the present national campaign but should
be used as a text by all Republican SPELL
binders In their appeals TO the intelligent
voters OF the country. who will recognize
In 1t an expression which contains the reme-
dial essence OF which the country Is in need
In order to restore that confidence so neces-
sary TO a thorough reestablishment OF pros
perity.
The force OF Mr.. Taft's expression may be
appreciated which considered from the
standpoint Of its fair minded and sober
spirit as compared to the well known brand
which characterizes hasty and p~rejudiced
legislation affecting our commercial well
fare. The country has suffered enough
from the latter brand. therefore 1t Is Of vital
concern to every citizen to consider seri-
ously Mr.. Taft's expression an Indicating
his attitude toward the weighty matters
which will require his fair and sober renec-
tion In the event Of his election to the Presi-
dency.
Whatever the outcome of the Foraker
affair. II assuredly served to reveal In Mr..
Taft q character Of which all the American
people maj Justly be proud.
