James Wilson, Agriculture Who
Presidential n Is fora

Washington, d. O., June 90 - With
the nomination of Mr.. Taft for the
presidency, Republican politicians and
Republican newspaper editors are as
suming that Republican supremacy at
the November polls is an assured con-
clusion. In fact, this idea has become
SO emphatic that number of states
are already appearing pretending to
suggest the membership of the new
presidents cabinet. A compilation of
the various suggestions for cabinet
places that have been made show the
following suggestions for cabinet pre-
ferment:
7 Secretary of state Theodore e.
Burton Of Ohio, Charles w. Fairbanks
Of Indiana, German Ambassador David
jayne Hill, Senator Cabot Lodge of
Massachusetts, Robert Bacon Of New
York.
Secretary of the Treasury George
L. Won Meyer of Massachusetts, Ghas.
G. Dawes of Illinois, George B. Cortel-
you of New York.
Secretary of War Luke e.
Wright of Tennessee, Charles e. Ma
goon of Nebraska.
| Attorney General - Frank B. Kel-
| logg or Minnesota.
Postmaster General Frank H.
Hitchcock of Massachusetts.
Secretary Of the Navy William
Loeb of New York, Truman H. New.
berry of Michigan, George L. Knight
of California.

lis of Ohio, Chester |. Long of Kan.
sas, G. Bascom Slemp of Virginia.

| AS matter of fact cabinet prophe-
cies are the merest political dope, and
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1908-06-30

yet there are scores of dopesters who
delight In their art. The prophecies
which have 1een made thus far seem
to have been based particularly on
the knowledge of the personal make
up and inclinations Of Mr.. Taft. taken
with certain political promises which
the sequence of past events seem TO
have promised and produced.
In view of rhe close relationship be.
tween Theodore Roosevelt AMI Nom
inee Taft 1t would seem highly prob
able tat a Considerable portion o. the
Roosevelt cabinet would become iden-
titled with tie Taft cabinet, In event
of ttapdb.sean victory. Aai yet the
most striking part of the prognostica-
tions. 10 1a'e is the ;obls absence
of Roosevelt advisers in the Taft list.
1t must be said, however, on the other
hand, that presidents in the past have
rarely drawn on the cabinets of their
predecessors In selecting their politi-
cal family.
| The fact that James Wilson of Iowa
continues without opposition as secre-
| tary of agriculture on all the states OF
all the different cabinet prophets is a
striking testimonial Of the splendid
work which this splendid man has
done in the long and continuous years
during which he has been identified
with this work.
Secretary Wilson has today been
longer in cabinet service than any
other man. He Is an agriculturaiist
