Congress is hard at work now
trying to agree on some feasible
elastic currency" bill. II there
is anything in the world that
will be popular with the people it
would be an element of elasticity
in our currency, sufficient to
make it 60 around. Most of the
leaders in Congress are favor
able to asset currency, by which
is meant that national banks
shall be allowed to deposit first
class securities with the Treas
ury Department, and issue notes
against them. the same as they
now do against Government
bonds. The proposed measure
would simply enlarge our none
tary basis, which ought to be
done with all haste.

WHY NOT TAFT


is for Taft. Shall the will Of the
people govern? William H. Taft
has made good in the public sta
tons to which he has been called.
And it is we'll to emphasize the
fact that he has been called. He
retired from judicial Office to ac-
cept the responsibility of the
governship Of the Philippine Is.
lands. He has put behind him
opportunity to go upon the SUI
preine bench Of the United
States because it was made to
appear that his service else
where could not well be spared.
He is the trusted adviser and
friend Of Theodore Roosevelt, in
whom the people of Iowa have
large confidence. 1t is known in
this state, as it is known else.
where, that the president would
be delighted to have the Repub-
lican national convention name
Taft as the standard bearer Of
the party in the campaign of
1908.
Why not Taft?
The influence Of the state adj
ministration has been steadily
directed against the Ohio man.
1t was contended that the presi-
dent himself must" accept an
other term. The contention was
made in the name of superior
loyalty to the Roosevelt policies
and in the name of superior
leadership Of the present chief
executive. The president has
made plain that he is not to be
considered for a third term.
Why not Taft?
Unable to go on with the
name of Roosevelt, the state
administration is not yet willing
to offer proof of faith in Roose-
welt by saying the next friend of
the president shall have the
states support. Instead it is
said the Taft suggestion has
gathered no strength. Instead
it has been said the support of
Roosevelt should be withdrawn
and the state placed in the
guardianship of the state adj
ministration's candidate for the
Allison succession in the senate
Of the United States.
Why not Taft?
The adviser and friend of the
president has made good in
every station to which he has
been called. He is man of
large ability and corresponding
modesty. He has adhered to the
policy of faithfulneSs. He is a
man of sincerity. He is a splen-
did type Of the citizen in public
trust.
Why not Taft?
Iowa Republicans can well
support the secretary Of war and
preserve consistency in all they
have protested in recent years.
They can well give strength to
his standard to the incidental
end of reuniting themselves in
the bonds Of harmony. This they
can do in all good conscience.
