The TAFT Candidacy To-day.

Newspaper the country over are
reviewing the situation with re-
gard to the Republican presidential
nomination in The light Of the latest
state conventions. their instructions
and delegate selections, and the con-
illusions reached by them are not un-
interesting. The stage Of general
claims and predictions il admitted to
be over, for Of the $50 delegates that
will meet in national convention at
Chicago 70 name the candidates Of
the Republican party 1928 are already
chosen. Last week added ne fewer
than 1875 names 10 the roll, and a
conservative estimate which takes in
to account the indirect character Of
some of the pro- Tsft Instructions
gives Taft over 45 per cent of the
elected delegates.
The New York Tribune, which has
reported the facts accurately without
attempting to bend them 70 furegone
conclusions, now says that "there is
no merit in preserving an attitude of
unosltainty whom uncertainty has
ceased 70 exist" It expresses the
conviction shat "ths choice of the
Republican convention for Presidsn
has new been determined and that
the nomination of Mr.. Taft has been
foreordained." It believes that the
Secretary Of War will enter the con-
vsntion With a least $40 votes plsdg-
Cd 70 him.
This, coming from a champion of
Governor Hughes, is Of obvious sig
ni6canes, - il The Tribuns's strong
recommendation that Hughes should
be urged 10 stand for another term

EAGER FOR AIR MOTORS.

England-A Trip to Sahara.
Especial by French Cable to The Tribunel


London, Dec, 26.-The reviewers are already
winding up the year with summaries Of every
conceivable subject OF interest, from finance and
diplomacy to drama and sport One Of the most
novel forecasts. based upon the experience CT an
overcrowded year. appears in The economist
wherein the commercial future of flying ma
chimes is discussed in matter of fact way.
The practical success of the Wright aeroplane Is
conceded and the establishment of a new IN
dustry which may rival the construction OF
motor cars, is vaguely anticipated. Orders for
both Wright and Farman aiyships have been
received and the English companies, Influenced
by the fact that seventy-f1ye aeroplanes are now
under construction, are preparing to make an
gariy start in the new business. "The Econo-
mist" assumes that the price of these machines
will be reduced speedily, so that they can Dc
purchased at reasonable terms.
'HThe Economist" does not state that the use
OF Wrights and Farmans is likely to become
fashionable fad, but this is true The smart
people connected with the Aero Club are i'm
patiently waiting for additional improvements
in these scientific toys, so that they can have
the new sensation of driving through the air in
vibrationless flying machines easily as they
now trundle over the roads in motor cars
There will be a large market for them among
the most venturesome people Of fashion as soon
as the machines perfected. New sensations
are wanted when the pleasures Of ordinary mo-
toring already stale. This Is shown by the
efforts Of experts like Sir Henry Norman to OBJ
tain holiday recreation by going far af1eld- He
will start from MarseiIles tomorrow with Lady
Norman, after a rapid motor journey through
France and single stop at Rouen, and when
he reaches Algeria he will head for the great
Sahara Desert and go far as possible over
the trackless wastes in an improved motor with
every new fad and mechanical device.
