After a more careful investigation OF condl-

The UNMARRIED success Of MT, Taft's trip Is
producing a sameness which it is difficult to
prevent from creeping into the daily accounts
of it. To those who accompany Mr.. Taft his
develtpment as an extemporaneous speaker his
increasing facility in answering the questions
hurled at him from his audiences, and the
great crowds which greet him, all constitute
source of keenest interest and inspiration The
remarkable success of the trip is peculiarly
| gratifying to those who, after Virginia Day
| at Hot Springs. prevailed the candidate TO
| abandon the national committees programme
| for front porch" campaign at Cincinnati
| To-da,- in Kansas every station was surrounded
| by a remarkably large crowd.
| At Topeka this evening it looked as if all Kan
| sas had come TO welcome the Presidential candi-
| date. A great parade, with fireworks, added to
| the excitement Mr.. Taft delivered two speeches
to full houses the fist at the Auditorium, which
will seat seven thousand persons. and the second
| at the Opera House where another audience Of
| three thousand had gathered and many were
unable to gain admission.
No definite plans have been made for the re-
| mainder of the campaign. after October {. when
the present itinerary ends at Chicago. but It is
probable that the Taft special train will make a
| quick run to Cincinnati and remain there few
| days. The campaign managers believe that Mr.
! Taft should rest five days. Mr.. Taft is i'm
| patient over a days delay, and compromise
| will probably be made. Chairman Hitchcock
| will meet the candidate in Chicago. and there
| the itinerary for the remainder of the campaign
| will be perfected That it will include New
| York Indiana and various Southern states is
practically certain, and the indications are that
| the first trip-there will probably be two-will
| include Kentucky Tennessee, West Virginia.
| maryland, ana pIOudpiy georgia anu the caro-
| linas New York will be visited late in the CAM
| paign and so probably viii In llama, and the
| campaign will close at YOUNG stovn Ohio. on the
| night OF November .
| National Committeeman Mulvane said this
| evening that he travelled through Kansas with
| Theodore Roosevelt when he was candidate for
| Vice-President, and that the crowds which had
| turned out to see and hear Mr.. Taft to-day far
| exceeded those which came to greet Mr.. Roose-
| Welt. Mr.. Mulvane estimates that over fifteen
! thousand persons were at the stations at Hutch
| lnson, Newton and Emporia.
Governor Hughes is being extensively adver-
| tised throughout this section. He will speak at
| Newton on October s.
