morning. Secretary Taft will be nom

he told the president. and though the
people of New York are, Of course.
for Hughes, they will not be dis
pleased over the result
There is nothing the people of New
York would like better than to see
Governor Hughes nominated and
elected" said Perkins, but, as mat
ter of fact, he has no show whatever
for the nomination. This is conceded
by practically every politician in the
country in and out of New York AS
soon as the first ballot is over, If
Taft does not have the nomination
then, the delegates pledged to favorite
sons will flock into his inclosure and
it will be all over"
Senator Bourne of Oregon as he left
the White House today said: Il don't
believe that Taft will get 800 votes in
the convention. The nomination and
election of Taft would be the saddest
thing that could happen to the electo-
rate of this country.
Whose voice shall prevail-the
voice of the man in the White House
or the voice of the people? The man
in the White T4ouse saws we must take
Taft. The people say that the man
in the White House must run again.
rs Roosevelt the dictator or the
servant of the people? If he is not
the dictator. he will bow to the popu-
lar will and take another term He
is the only man that can win on the
republican ticket. If he is not nomi-
mated Bryan will sweep the country,
for in the popular estimate 1t is in
this order: Roosevelt. Bryan, La Fol-
