TAFT FORAKER'S FRIEND.

Candidate Taft's frantic efforts to
clear his immacu late skirts from the
de6ling touch of Senator J. B. Foraker,
because Of the discl osure of the latter
connection with the Standard Oil inter-
ests, are ludicrous in view of the public
protestation Of friendship of the two
during the past month-once at TOLEDO
on September Cd, on the occasion of the
G. A. R. parade, and again at Cincin-
natti on Septem Der 10th. where they
held forty minutes conference at Mr.
Taft's headquarters, while dozen doves
of peace futtered joyfully and the olive
branch nodded approvingly. Senator
Foraker's presence on that occasion
was the result of special invitation
from Mr. Taft's campaign manager in
Ohio, A. l. Vorys. of whom more anon.
Mr.. Vorys was pension attorney years
ago, and the records at the Washington
office refer to him.
1t will. be difficult to convince the
voters, not only of Ohio but the country
at large, that neither Mr.. Roosevelt nor
his candidate knew nothing of Senator
Foraker's communications with the
Standard Oil office until the publication

THE POLITICAL SITUATION

The situation is feyerish in politi-
cal circles to a degree. Nearly all
of our natioral issues relate in some
form and measure to wealth in active
employment and TO legislation, ex.
listing or in prospect, relating to it..
The ramifications of the subject are
wide.
Speaking generally, however, there
is this to be said: The corporations
whose company is deadly for pub
lie official are not numerous. Most
deadly of all is, and has long been,
the Standard Oil Company. 1t
heads the outlaw class in popular
opinion, and to popular opinion pub
lie officials OF all grades are respon-
sible. The man in Office who has
taken fee from this outlaw, or even
correspondent with its representatives
about public questions, has done 60
at his peril.
Fact is stranger, and far stronger,
than fiction. The roorback causes
anxiety and kicks up rough sea,
but it never sinks ship. No nat
ional election has ever been decided
by yarn, no matter how ingenious
ly constructed or artfully sprung.
Facts are always dangerous, and
carry an added influence in times Of
great excitement. 1t remains to be |
st en- how much influence the facts
already disclosed, and those that re-
main for disclosure, will have on the
pending campaign. !

ont the country with the caption spoken
by Mr. Taft, Hes good enough for

Also il must today be very bitter for
Mr.. Taft to eat his words of September
10th after the Cincinnati conference,
when he said:
"Senator Foraker and l are both very
much veXed at the reports OF friction
between us There is no occasion for
such reports"
Also referring to the Interview, Mr..
Taft said:
"ThcIc has been great deal OF mis-
represen tation about the situation be-
tween Senator Foraker and myself.
We discussed the general aspects Of the
campaign. Senator Foraker said he
wanted to do all he could to bring about
Republican success, and to call upon
him when l needed him.
Senator Forakcr's comment upon the
conference was that eve had very
pleasant personal talk
Mir. Taft had good reason to be CRATE
full to Joe" Foraker, and to desire his
friendship, for it was Foraker who gave
him his first big boost into the lime
light, by making him judge of the
superior ourt of Cincinnati. Foraker
| was at that time Governor of G!-.o.
According to Mr., Roosevet's letter
Mr.. Taft declined all overtures from
the Foraker party in 1S97-the propos-
| ed agreement being that Foraker would
| support Taft's candidacy for the presi-
dency, if Mr.. Taft and the other Ohio
leaders would throw their strength to
the Senatorial aspiration of Foraker.
| Mr.. Taft then said THAT he would not
| consider for one moment any possible
| advantage to himself when what he re-
garded as great principle was al
stake" Those are Mr.. Roosevelts
words. But in view of the peace part

WATERFRONT VALUES.

Some day the vast water expanse
of the Chesapeake will be turned to
BIZ the manufacturing interests OF
the country as the greatest available
generating power in the country.
The magnificent sites for manufac-
lures found in every town along the
Chesapeake sh ores will come to be
valued at their full worth. Access
to the sea and close connection With
the great ocean routes of the present
and future are some OF the advsn-
tages that the Chesapeake frontage
will provide. The tremendous oper'
ations that are in progress along the
Susuuehanna River to convert the
waters of that stream into . great
source of power for lighting and man
ufacturing purposes are being car
ried on by outside as we'll as by do
nestle capital, and eventually this
will be one of the foremost undertak.
ings in relation to Baltimore and en-
virons. But this project is only an
illustration of what the water ways
of tbs state may be made to accom-
plish for the promotion of its indus
tries.
1t is commonly the case that wat
er-trontage in localities desirable Dr
residence are first utilized and the
manufacturing sites are later secur-
ed. The experience of the Chesa-
peake localities bears this out.
There is an increasing number Of
persons annually who secure frontage
on the Chesapeake and its tributary
rivers in order to establish country
homes, with all the delights of fish
ing, boating and the like. These
persons come, many of them from
the North, and pay such prices as
they have been accustomed to pay
for similar sites in that section.
Thus the farm values on the Eastern
Shore have been wonderfully increas-
ing. The Chesapeake has q more
extended shore expanse than any
other water indenture, but the coun-
try seats that dot its borders do not
begin to cover the available area for
such places. 1t is not an imaginary
flight to forecast the time when the
incalculable wealth of the Chesapeake
fisheries will call into action tremend-
GUS manufacturing industries in
a region that invites them. when the
Chesapeake Bay will be the preferred
locality for the men Of wealth and
leisure from elsewhere to establish
their country residences.
Maryland's material versatility 10
coming to be appreciated. The state
of small dimensions is known to en-
brace a wider diversity of climate,
soils and products-water and land
that any other in the Union. The
climate, upon the whole, is admirs-
BILE, and the conditions for pleasant
residence in summer or winter make
it almost ideal. For these reasons
the state is destined to be state OF
wealth and culture, with Baltimore
as its great, teeming center Of indus
try.-Ba ltimofe American.
