The National Ticket.

The republican national convention
at Chicago last week placed in nom
ination William H. Taft, of Ohio, for
President, and James s. Sherman, of
New York for vice. president. The
platform adopted is the most COM
plete exposition of principles and
policies ever submitted to the voters
!, of the country by any political party.
With these candidates and this plat
form the republican party can 60 into
the presidential campaign without
any apologies, and confident OF the
support of the voters. The platform
10 printed in full elsewhere in this
issue.
The feature of the convention was
the great outburst of enthusiasm at
the mention of Roosevelt. The DEM
onstration which continued undated
for three quarters of an hour was a
tribute not only to the man, but to his
policies. With the carrying out of
many of these policies Secretary
Taft, the nominee for President, has
been closely identified, and he is thor
oughly in sympathy with the admin
istration which has the endorsement
Of the great mass of the people.

To the Editor of The American:
1t is scripturaI injunction to give
''honor to whom honor is due", and il
applies as well to practical life. have
viewed with admiration for many months
the excellent work of the members
of the Ellsworth fire department;
but the fire near the parsonage yes
terday gave me the opportunity to
see their work at close range, and l want
to express in this public way my hearty
appreciation of their efforts.
As citizens we should be proud OF them
and they certainly deserve the best that
can be said of them. l would commend
not only their promptness, their activity,
their indifference to discomfort or danger
but especially their quiet, orderly and
systematic behavior when in action.
The fire ladies and their grand horses
are worthy of our best support and hearth
est sympathy. Very truly yours,
R. MATHEWS.

An Estimate OF Taft.

An Estimate OF Taft.
William Allen White, in character
sketch of William H. Taft in the Americ IN
Magazine says:
What kind of President, all things con
sidered, will he make? Assuming that the
facts hereinbefore set down are correct. it is
obvious that irst of all we may expect Presi-
dent who Will work hard-for he has but two
meals day and tolls without resting from
ten until six every day; then we may expect
that ne will wo-k hard with kind, self-effac-
ing spirit; then that he will work hard unset
fshly and without much initiative. For he
has rarely gone from beaten paths, though he
has shown that he can go alone. The great
things he has done in this world have been
done at the desk He is sno orator as Brutus
isl. He will say little and do much.
The times demand not a man bearing
promises of new things, but a man who can
finish the things begun. Such man is Taft,
newer of wood, who has no ambition to link
his name with new measures, but who, with a
steady hand, and heart always kind and a
mind always generously just, can clean of the
desk.
Roosevelt knows the desk is cluttered up.
He knows that it may take six or eight years
merely to get down to the mahogany under
things now pending. But the American peo-
pie know that some way this must be done
before the nation can go further. And hence,
in the Mississippi valley at least, there is a
belief that the man who can make the Hep
burn railroad Law as much part Of our COM
mon life as the postal regulations, who can
grind the rough edges of the Sherman law
tLpOxs rvt, kI,an .x-ks Sat- Ia
and deal with Cuba kindly, honestly and
firmly, who can lead the brown men Of the
islands further into the light, is this big,
Woodworking, soft-hearted, fair-minded, un-
selfish man, Taft. He can clean of the desk.
