When we come to look closer into
the character OF this public opinion,
and the genesis OF 1t, we find some
very interesting and suggestive facts,
If the case of Michigan is typical
OF public opinion generally in the
West. we here get quite accurate
and instructive one to the current
tread OF thought among the American
people on national affairs.
The development of the Taft move
ment in Michigan may be ascribed to
two distinct phases of public senti-
ment:
The first is the belief among bust
ness and professional men that Judge
Taft would make a strong and steady
President. They admire his character
and his services. Many of them
especially the lawyers-and lawyers
here rs everywhere are leaders in
polltics-hnve met him and formed
their estimate OF him at close range.

the probabilities are that they will be,
but until the situation develops n
little further they cannot be regarded
as certain. The four delegates at
large and most of the district dele
gates will be instructed for Taft. An
effort is making to secure unanimous
delegation, and unless something
goes wrong 1t is probable the effort
VIII succeed
No one now denies that Michigan Is
Taft State. There is no serious
opposition to the Taft programme.
No open work is being done for
other candidates. The people and the
politicians regard the outcome as al
ready determlned-that the vote of
the state is for Taft. The only ques-
ton is whether two or three districts
are to stand out against the general
will and wish of the Republicans OF
the commonwealth.

These Michigan business and pro-
fesslonal men who are for Taft are
not Roosevelt haters. On the contrary,
they approve Of the President and his
work, some of them with qualifica-
lions with shading of warmth or cold
ness. What they cannot understand is
that II they can see the way to get in
the White House steadier and quiet.
er man than Roosevelt, why in the
name OF all that is good and great
cannot the eastern men who oppose
Taft and favor Hughes or some other
candidate see the same thing.
Why can they not see If Taft is not
nominated Roosevelt must be? The
prevailing opinion here is the same
as have found in ohio-that Taft is
morally sure of the nomination, and
that as long as this condition remains
the men who would force the Presi.
dents hand are not likely to make
either serious outbreak or much head
way.
The Fairmont West Virginian. (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1904-1914, 1908-02-08

Although some exceedingly clever
politics in behalf of Taft marks the
recent history OF events here, the
silent, the compelling fact is the trend
of public opinion. 1t is conceded by
every one, even by men who favor
other candidates. that great ma
jority Of the Republicans favor Taft.
The strength of this sentiment
among the masses. as in Ohio. and
many other States, has made is easy
for those operating practically and
looking after AFFAIRS to secure results.
These men are so well satisfied with
what has been done that they are now
virtually resting on their oars. Their
work is done. All they need to do in
the future is to watch two or three
districts where the results may still
be regarded as in doubt.

works. In their eyes Roosevelt can do
no wrong. He has them completely
hypnotized. They love him and hate
his eDmies. They believe It was his
enemies who brought on the panic in
New York for no other purpose than
to hurt their idol.
