TAFT PLAYS GOLF
 OTHERS WORK

Hot Springs, Va, July 3t.-Although raphers Exceedingly busy all day and into the night handling replies to his heavy mall Candidate Taft had com paratively 8 care-free day. He divided his work with a game of golf in the morning and ride with General Corbin as a companion in the afternoon.
 Colorado wants Mir. Taft's presence in September, according to an urgent invita- tion which came today from the manage ment of the Interstate Fair and Exposi- tion to be opened Labor Day in Denver. As the acceptance of the invitation would mean an abandonment of MT. Taft's plans to conduct his personal campaign without travel, his regrets were sent.
 Three miniature William Howard Tafts have made dots on the political and do- mestic horizon in New York, Indiana and Illinois, according to advices today from the proud parents to the candidate, and each of the three will get an autograph letter from the original bearer of the name and perhaps something besides.
 The Hoosier Taft was born, according to advices today, during the day of the Taft speech of acceptance. The parents of the Illinois William Howard chose the name nearly a year ago, but not for political reasons as their statement is that the boy weighed 25A pounds at birth.
 Twelve new Taft clubs were reported, among them being an organization of negro voters at Knoxville, Tenn.

New York Situation Is a Mat ter of Great Alarm
MIDDLE WEST IS UNCERTAIN
Ohio and Indiana Are Now Considered Doubtful States as Well as New York, and Republicans Are
 Becoming Worried.

Washington. July s1.-(Special)-A spe- cial dispatch. which emanates entirely from republican sources, was printed here this afternoon, showing that the situation in New York is most embarrassing for the Grand Old Party" It follows
 New York politics Is in a terrible tur- moil. The discussion over the prospec- tive renomination of Governor Hughes is exceedingly active and takes wide range. The opposition to him from soma of the politicians, who can hardly be classed as altruists, is something fierce. They think that the allied forces of the sporting element can certainly over whelm them. But they take the view of the city man in the cafe with his high ball before him. On the other hand, the upstate politicians, who know the senti- ment of the rural voters and of the dwe&- CTS in the small towns where the home influence is strong, contend that Cover nor Hughes will prove winner.
 Tt is notable fact that the situation in Ohio, Indiana and New York, doubt ful states, if you please. or. at least, claimed to be so by the democracy. is in a measure similar. A strong moral move ment, indorsed by the republican party, Is to contend on state issues with an op- position which Is allied with the de- mocracy. The presidential and congress sional tickets must, of course, be, to certain degree. helped or hindered by the interest of the state tickets in the mooted issues.
 Farther west you find continuation of the same spirit after a fashion. There Is the strong Roosevelt sentiment, based not alone upon his personal popularity, but upon his esposual of reforM and prog ress laong various lines. The republican party is allied with this feeling from New York to Iowa.
 The situation is in a sense national, though based upon considerations pecu- liar to the states, respectively There is no question that Roosevelt, Hughes La Toilette and Cummins are the popular men in their party, and one can trace the popularity back to their Identification with reform and progress, varying in express sion to suit the peculiarity of their people, ranging from the comparative conserva- tism of Hughes to the extreme radicalism of LaFollette. The politician who fails to note these facts makes a mistake. The managing politicians of the republi- can party are not overlooking them at this time.' 9 w. s.
