THE SPEECH OF ACCEPTANCE.

THE SPEECH OF ACCEPTANCE
 Mir. Tafts speech of acceptance is an endorsement of the national re- publican platform, and, where nee essary, a definition of that doc ument, which will be reassuring to the country at large. He has pledged himself in the most un- mistakable terms to those pledges which the party had made for itself and he has done it so fully that, knowing the character of MT. Taft for honesty and steadfastness of pur- pose, the country is given a complete insight into the policies of the next administration.
 The speech is a promise of pro- gress and no one can doubt that the promise will be kept. There is no evasion, no glossing over any of the issues which have been presented, no hurried disposition of them, no Ian guage susceptible of more than one interpretation. But all this is char acteristic of the candidate.
 We do not think that the most ultra conservative will be apprehen- sive and we think that none but the wilder-eye radicals will be disap pointed. Take for instance the labor and the trust questions In the dis cussion of the injunction in it's rela ton to the former, there is not an utterance with which a union labor man can take issue and preserve an appearance of fairness. AS to the trust question, all must agree that great aggregations of capital engaged in legitimate business have had good words said for them. Only violators of the law, or sound public policy will feel disappointment or uneasi- ness over anything that was said at Cincinnati yesterday.
 The tariff question is handled in most straightforward manner. The old republican idea of protection is still kept to the fore and against it is the old democratic idea of non protection-non-prote of manu- factures and non-protection of wage earners. That there is need of tariff reform is admitted, a fact which no one denies, but true reform of the tariff is not, as MT. Taft points out, destruction of the barrier of pro- lection.
 It is improbable that all republicans will fully agree with Mir. Taft in all his views or all his shades of view as to public policy. That was not to be expected for no man has ever yet achieved a perfect unanimity of en- dorsement But the speech will un- doubtedly strengthen the position of MT. Taft not only in his party but among the thinking independent vot- CTS of all parties.

MIR. BRYAN'S FOOD FOR

It was stated in dispatches from Lincoln that MT. Bryan would not begin the preparation of his speech of acceptance until he had read Mir Tafts. He's got it now and in the language of the period it ought to hold him awhile. If he digests it before he begins work on his speech. In this connection the length of the Cincinnati address reminds us of a feature of Chinese funerals. Those of us who have watched those mourn full oriental processiOns have observ- ed a man sitting on the vehicle bear ing the corpse and scattering behind him little slips of brown paper with curious holes of varied design punched in them. It is explained by the Chi nese that these papers are intended to attract the curiosity of the devil who is supposed to be following the corpse. It is the Chinese theory that the devil stops and becomes ab- sorbed in the study of these papers so that by the time he finally reaches the burial ground, the funeral is over and the dead is out of danger. We hard ly think though that MT. Tafts speech was extended to its extraor- dinary length for the purpose of keeping MT. Bryan busy until next November.
