TAFT HAS EVER
BEEN GRADUATING
He Has Climbed the Ladder Leading
to the Presidency Step
BY Step.

Secretary Taft who today became
the nominee for president of the Unit.
ed States on the Republican ticket has
ever been graduating, always making
good and then graduating again. He is
perennial graduator, In fact, with
a sphere Of usefulness always increas-
ing, always more efficient. Governors
and presidents have known thls l,ng
land now the people and the nation
recognize 1t. The great war secretary
has ever been ready for new de-
gree, not ready in the smaller sense Of
willing to receive but ready in the larg-
er sense, meaning-prepared and
competent.
His certificate of birth was his first
diploma. 1t Is testimony to the fact
that William Howard Taft was born
in Ohio, that wonderful state where
the very atmosphere is laden with the
pollen OF political achievement. Surely
to be born there is equivalent to re.
ceiving degree.
Our retiring chief Of the war Office
was graduate then from the start.
He was son of graduates, too. His
father before him had been graduated
from Yale and had held high honors.
His grandfather had been Judge and
legislator in Vermont and his faith.
er, having won commencement honors
at the New Haven University. was la.
ter United States circuit Judge, at
torney general and secretary OF war
Considering these antecedents one
might almost say that Taft came into
the full honors received, the third de-
gree at the very beginning of his ca
reer.
With these few words of depression
anticipation and prophecy, let us look
at the series of graduations and de-
grees that have added more and more
with almost periodic regularity to the
lustre Of our war secretary's career.
From the cradle he was graduated
ito the nursery and then to the play
ground where he received the degree
Of "Lub." Lub meant Look out! When
he's started you cant stop him!"
This degree remained with him
through the high school until the
freshman class of Yale received him
and conferred new degree upon him
in its stead. This was Bull" He wor
1t by his prowess In the freshman rush
when he tossed the heaviest of the
sophomores over nearby fence.
i He held this degree all through his
college course for no one else was sc
strong as he nor so affable 1t is good
to say. Minor degrees were handed
to him, too, for prowess in various in
dividual sontests though he did moi
Join any of the varsity teams. HI
sought to win honors in scholarship
as his father, the Judge, had done II
the same college before him and hi
succeeded. for when he was agalr
graduated, this time by the faculty o
the university, he was salutatorian
that is, second in rank as scholar ant
his classmates nominated him orator
With his diploma Of Bachelor o
Arts and his certificates Of honor Tai

and entered the law school there
whence he was in due course gradual

Chicago, June 1S.--The third day OF
the Republican national convention
dawned hot and sultry. AT 10 o'clock
the delegates began to file in and the
crowds in the galleries gradually be-
came denser, giving evidence that to-
days crowd would be a record break.
er In point Of attendance. Shirt
sleeves were in evidence everywhere.
After a conference it was announced
that William H. Taft would not be
nominated until Ohio was reached on
the roll call for nominations. The or
iginal program was for Alabama to
yield to Ohio, but this was changed
and 1t was agreed that most Of the
favorite sons would be placed in NOM
ination before Taft
A rule was also adopted that but
one nominating and one seconding
speech would be delivered for each
candidate, thus eliminating the prac-
tice Of several seconding speeches.
This was done to expediate work
of the convention.
At exactly 1917 o'clock Chairman
Lodge raped for order and introduc-
ed Rev. John Wesley Hill, Of New
York, who opened the session with the
Lords prayer
Senator Hopkins was presented to
the convention to make the report of
the platform committee. Representa-
tive Cooper, of Wisconsin, assigned to
make the minority report went to the
stage with Hopkins. When Hopkins
reached the point in the preamble
praising the administration Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, there was applause
and cheering but no attempt at dem.
onstration. The reading of the plat
form was concluded at n:16 O'clock
Hopkins Immediately moved the pre-.
yious question on the adoption Of the
report and that the minority report be
presented which motion was adopted
The platform was adopted by viva
yoce vote, while the minority report
was overwhelmingly defeated.
Several Candidates Nominated.
The nominations for a presidential
candidate were then in order and the
clerk began calling the roll for presen
tations. The clerk ran rapidly down
the list of states until Illinois was
reached.
Then Representative Boutelle tooA
the stage and nominated Joseph G
Cannon. Illinois cheered in a loya
fashion but its following was scan'
and the entire demonstration was ov
er In exactly two minutes.
When Indiana was reached Govern
or Hanley nominated Charles War
rem Fairbanks and although there was
cheering from the Indiana delegation
the ovation was brief.
Next came New York and Stewar
l.. Woodruff placed in nomination Gov
ernor Charles e. Hughes. There wa!
considerable cheering, but this most
ly came from the New York delega
ton.
Great Ovation For Taft.
There was great demonstration
when Ohio was called and when Thee
dore =. Burton concluded his speecl
nominating Taft at 2:40 o'clock cheer
burst forth all over the hall. Th'
demonstration was very vociferou
and several delegations lifted thei
standard bearers and started marc1
around the hall. After the demonstrs
tton had continued twenty-fiv
minutes. Chairman Lodge raped 70
order but the assemblage was no
quiet when he introduced Georg
knight Of California to second th
nomination Of TAFT, and his wonderful
voice soon brought silence. Knigh
concluded at 1910 o'clock.
Next came the nominations Of Semi
