New orleans Picnyuno; Some sar-
castle individual has remarked in
connection with the national election
yesterday that Judge Taft has been
triumphantly chosen to be president
OF the UNITED Standard Oil States. d"
While II is almost sacrilege to ap-
ply such statement to choosing by
Che people OF the greatest free ma
ton on the globe of their chief ex-
ecutive, IL Is difficult to believe that
the carrying Of the great Democratic
state Of New York against Mr.. Bryan
was not accomplished by the lavish
use OF money.
It has been constantly declared
that President Roosevelt, when he
chose Judge Taft as his political
protege and heir, was providing a
successor who will carry out all the
Roosevelt doctrines and policies. 1t
is far more probable that whatever
we're the Presidents views in the
premises, Judge Taft will entirely
discard all OF the Roosevelt radical
ism, and in his department toward
the trusts and the tariff will be- as
gentle as lamb. He cannot ignore
the enormous support they gave him.

regarding the late election:
Above the din OF the victors and

Well, so be It,
The people chose the Republican
candidates with the party's record Of
tarlff-reduction promises and tariff

can be no cause for complaint by any
