TAFT's RELIGION.
A Consistent Christian with No Spot
Upon His Record of Private Con-
duct and Public Service.

duct and Public Service.
To dispose of questions which should
not be asked as speedily as possible let
us say that Mr.. Taft is member of
the Unitarian church. That WAS the
church Of his parents. and he has never
separated himself from 1t. His wife,
however, is an Eplscopalian. and he
worships more often beside her In her
church.
These are the facts, which are utter
ly and absolutely unimportant. The
matter Of mans religion has no right
full place in consideration Of his fitness
for the presidency. The constitution
of the nation. ordained and established
ito secure the blessings Of liberty to
ourselves and our posterity," expressly
places the very suggestion of such
thought outside the pale Of patriotism.
No words can be clearer than these
from our country's fundamental law.
No religious test ever shall be re-
quired as a qualification TO any Office
or public trust under the United
States"
The numerous queries about Mr.
Taft's religious belief shows simply the
extent to which his enemies have gone
to rouse some prejudice against him.
Since there was no spot upon his whole
clean record Of private conduct and
public service to which they could
point to Taft's detriment they display
ed their Willingness to descend to any
depth of petty. cowardly. contemplate

spondent of the Chicago Tribune. who
IL regarded as one of the most reliable
political writer's in the country, regards
the result of the Vermont election as
presaging absolute victory for Mr.. Taft
In recent special dispatch to the
Tribune Raymond said:
practically speaking. the result of
Tuesdays election is more favorable to
the Republicans than they had any
right to expect, because there has been
NJ determined campaign for the purpose
OF making n good showing in Vermont
and few Of the big guns OF the party
have been put ON the stump there this
year.
There is. of course, slight falling
of in the vote of both Republicans and
Democrats. as compared with four
ycaEs ago. but this was entirely to be
expected. because at that time Roose-
-elt WAS the nominee of his party for
resident. and the result In Vermont In
HAT year was merely forerunner of
tie tremendous landslide which took
place nj, over the country.
'As 1t is, the plurality Of over 5000

this year Is not to be n sensational one.
