tice given and a hearing of both
sides. The address was, on the
whole, an impartial and lucid ex-
position of the various problems
involving the relations of en-
ployers and employed at the pres
ent time, and it demonstrates
throughout that the best friend
of American labor in the Union
today is William Howard Taft.
The sentiments that Mr.. Taft
voiced in this speech would add

TAFT IN PRIME OF LIFE
At the Top Of Geogr7 7hicaI Map,
Michigan Wants to Lead
Taft Triumph.

Willard E, Holt, editor of the Belle
vue (Mich.) Gazette, we'll expresses
the position Of Republicans in his
state in the following strong edi-
torial:
Michigan is geographically at the top
of the map, and starts out this beautiful
new year of nineteen eight by placing
herself squarely at the top of the polit-
ical map by lifting up her intelligent and
far reaching voice for William Howard
Taft as the legitimate successor to the
great Roosevelt.
Michigan don't believe in trailing. She
likes to pull the lead rope. That's why
she takes kindly and with faith unmis-
takably evident to the Taft idea. It's a
good idea. It's :. large idea. It's
magnificent idea
William Howard Taft is one of the
safest, sanest, sOundest men in our coun-
try today. His every public act proves
1t. He's a big man physically, mentally,
morally and intellectually, He IL
statesman of tho constructive sort and a
diplomat who knows what ought to be
done and does It,
Here's another Taft idea that never
should be lost sight Of He's right in
the prime of life and vigor and will grow
in wisdom every year he occupies the
White House.
Now, all together for Taft What
glorious tribute to American manhood II
every state in the Union could bear aloft
the banner OF Taft This ls great
country and we must 1eeds keep a great
man at its head. We can and will.
The Greenville journal. [volume] (Greenville, Ohio) 1850-1918, 1908-01-23

Much has been said and writ
ten about Secretary Taft as the
reflector of the Roosevelt poll
cies", and many of our contem-
pOraries have stated that with
Taft in the White House we
would have merely a continuance
of those policies. These state
ments, while incorrect in spirit
are not so far wrong in sub
stance, after all, when we con-
slider that Mr.. Taft helped, and
very largely at that, to construct
these policies. However, new
days will bring new issues and
new duties toward some of the
old ones. For instance, the Phil
ippine question will remain and
what other man in our public af-
fairs understands that question
in it's practical aspects as thor
Oughly, as comprehensively as
Judge Taft? The Panama Canal
will require intelligent presiden-
tial recommendation, and Cuba
is still problem. Who is more
familiar with this situation or
has to as great extent the conf
dence of the Cuban people than
Judge Taft? In all domestic mat
ters he is equally we'll versed and
his grasp is that of a we'll trained
lawyer and his temperament that
of judge. By next year his ex-
perience in executive office will
have encompassed ten years.
This man in the White House
merely a deputy? By no means!
He would be loyal to his party |
and to it's history and at the same |
time he would be an individual
in his own right, equal to what
ever might arise in our insular
possessions, the far East or at |
home.

part of the address in which Mr..

called by some of the unions.
The employers blacklist" and
the employees boycott" were a.
like condemned, and he contends
that the injunction is as legit-
innate to restrain abuses by la
Dor unions as to restrain illegal
acts by the industrial or railway
corporations. He admitted that
the writ of injunction had been
abused, though mainly through
its issue ex parte, and he would
