TAFT COMES FROM GOOD STOCK
Family Ranked Among the Plain
People for MANY Years.

The Ta.ts-those who at present are
the Tafts-hail ancestrally from Tx
bridge. Mass. They say that Tafts are
an can't throw IA stone without hitting
one.
Some years ago-in 1874, TO be exact
there was Taft reunion in Tx
bridge, to which descendants of the
original Robert Taft came hocking
from all parts of the country. One of
the conspicuous features of the affair
was historical address by Alphonso
Taft. father Of the present Republican
candidate. He traced the history OF
various branches of the family, and
when he came 10 the one TO which he
and his children belonged he said:
Our family have not embarked much
upon national politics, except that they
have shared in the battles of the coun-
try when national independence was
to be won, and also when the Union
was at stake. But brilliant political
careers have not been characteristic of
the Tafts in the past. 1t is not safe to
say what may be in store for them.
There Is a tide in the affairs of men
and also of families"
This is taken from the account OF
the reunion published at the time. Al
phonso Taft would perhaps have been
somewhat daZzied il he could have fore
seen how quickly and brilliantly the
family would proceed to embark upon
national politics." He himself started
the turn of the tide which he predict
ed. 1t seems to be reaching its flood
in the career OF the son who that year
was entering Yale.
AS Alphonso Taft described his i'm
mediate ancestors one sees where his
son got certain characteristics. Peter
Taft uIl5) was IA large, good-look-
ing man of magnanimous disposition"
He had four SONS.
Aaron, the candidates ancestor, was
also so magnanimous that ne lost
money by indorsing friends notes;
he was man ''of great intelligence
and Integrity" And then, going some
what further back. there was Captain
William Taft. who took Blarney Cas-
tie in the sixteenth century "by blar-
ney quite as much as by military
prowess." Good stock was Captain
William from which to make twen-
ticth century Secretary of War VIII
liam.

HOW TAFT WAS SOUGHT BY
M'KINLEY.
can Candidate Was Called to q
Larger Sphere of Action.


One afternoon early in 1900. when
Judge William II. Taft was debating
a decision of The United States Court
In the Federal Building in Cincinnati
n telegram was placed in his hands
He tore on the envelope and was sur
prised to find telegram from Presl-
dent William Mckinley. reading:
Il shall take it as a great favor if you
will call on me some time next week.
Judge Taft guessed at the meaning
of the summons and guessed wrong,
lie went to Washington and was shown
into room at the White House. where
he met the President and Secretary
Long of the Navy: Later. Elihu Root.
the Secretary Of War, came in. Then.
to use Mr.. Taft's own words:
MIR. Mckinley said that he wanted TO
send me to the Philippines to help in the
work of establishing civil government as
the army moved on. l thought of my
place on the bench and hesitated. Be
sides. | believed and said we could get
along without the Philippines.
" But we have them and must take
care of them the President replied
"'You are at the turning of the ways
in your life.' Mr.. Root then observed.
The bench is the easy road. You can
stay there and be comfortable. On the
contrary. the Philippines will demand per-
sonal sacrifices and risks and much hard
work. but you will have an opportunity
Of doing your country very great ser
vice. | went home. and argued the mat
ter for two weeks"
the telegram to Cincinnati opened
the door of American history to VII
liam ii. Taft and made him the Repub-
iican candidate for President OF the
United States.

have learned that it is equally binding
as TO what II omits."
If we could imagine such crude
prohibition TO he enacted into law. and
TO be regarded as valid. what would he
the effect? Mr.. Bryan. with his usual
readiness. suggests that the concern
may sell as much OF its plants as are
not needed 10 produce the amount al
lowed by law. lie speaks as though
every manufacturing concern had as
many fully equipped units OF produc-
tion as would correspond to any given
percentage OF trade which II might be
required TO lop or. Plants are not so
easily dismeml.,red. Reduction In out

which controls so per cent OF given
product--thnt Is to say, makes and
sells Ss.OGtl,JOO in value out of total
trade In the product amounting to S1o,-
100000. Is II to be compelled to reduce
its output TO 100000 because only
S2.Oo0OO0 In value are made by others?
Then. II II could sell part Of Its plant
on Mr.. Bryan's theory. what should 1t
sell? should II sell on enough to re-
duce Its capacity to S5.oOOOOo. and
allow thrce-hfths of its plant to remain
Idle until others developed n capacity
for handling the other S50o0.Ooo?
should II assume that the total trade

main at S10.00o.oo0. and hence retain
a larger portion of its plant In idle
ness? Or suppose a concern controls
100 per cent OF the trade in some arti-
Gle, what plants shall II retain? 1t
can produce nothing until others pro-
duce but 1t may produce an amount
equal to the production OF others. and
1t hopes the trade will grow. What
vision OF business uncertainty and con-
fusion. OF idle and impaired plants. OF
the ruin of workingmcn whose lives
have clustered around particular indus
tries and who depend upon their con-
tinued efficiency. is presented by this
fanciful remedy for the destruction of
trusts.
Apart from this. II the dissolution
were effected in the manner desired
and portions of plants could be sold
and were sold as suggested to whom
would the sale be made? Would 1t he
necessarily to foes or to those ambi-
tious to be competitors and anxious to
take advantage of Its plight?
This proposal In Its utter disregard
Of the fncts of business, In its substi-
tuition Of the phantasies Of the imagin-
alton for the realities OF life. stamps
the Democratic platform with the fatal
stamp of 1896. The commerce and In
dustry OF this country, the interests OF
Its wage earners and Of Its intcrdepend-
ent masses. who must rely upon the
stability Of business, cannot afford to
give license to such vagarles.
In the solemnity with which this
proposal has been declared. and the In
vlstence with which 1t is advocated, we
find an appropriate test of the capacity
of our opponents to deal wisely with
the problems Of the day.

oklahoma Trial InconcIusive.


The fact that the first bank future
in Oklahoma after the law went into
effect. was followed by immediate re-
endorsement of the depositors, proves
nothing as to the practicability of the
system in the long run. The fact that
the State banks of Oklahoma have
gained deposits since the system went
into operation, while national banks
within the State have lost. II true,
proves nothing as to the merits OF the
system. The law itself requires that
all public deposits must be kept In
banks that belong to the system. and
this provision alone would cause a con-
siderable transfer of deposits and In
nuence some banks to join the system
The real test OF the policy will come
in its influence upon the banking bust
ness In the long run. VIII IL tend to
secure more careful and prudent in
vcstment of the vast sums which the
people OF the country keep in banks. or
will it tend to weaken the personal re-
sponsibility for these funds and divert
them into incapable and wasteful
hands. 1t is superficial view which
lays all emphasis upon the immediate
results OF the law and gives no con
sideration to its violation OF funda-
mental principles and the consequences
which must follow.

cONQUERlNG THE AIR.

Septem Der will no doubt become a
marked day in the ca.endar, for on that
day the principle of human flight was
demonstrated to the point toffeasibility.
When on that day it beca me establish
ed that man could fly without the aid
of gasbag the era OF improvement
and expansion was at once inaug-
urated. No doubt the full conquest of
the air is yet to come, but when Or
Vile Wright rem aimed i'll the air in a
dirigible machine an hour the subject
was then relegated to engineers and
inventors, who will speedily meet
public expectations. No one need
doubt the outcome, now that flight has
been actually demonstrated. The
Wright brothers are more given to ac-
ton than words, and will no doubt
continue to plan and toll in their shop
at Dayton, o., until aerial navigation
is a commercial success. They have
already brought glory and honor to
the American people, and their future
work promises to be practical and ef-
ficient.
The development of the aeroplane
falls to the United Statessand France,
with Germany and Great Britain look
ing on with eager eyes. Germany has
wasted much time and money in gas
bag efforts, and England is simply
laggard. The rest of the world is
awaiting American and sFrench re-
suits.
The rivalry between sthe Wright
brothers and the French aeronauts re-
lates chiefly to the motor, the hind
planes or tail which the French use
and the starting apparatus. To engi
neers can be lett the building of motors
for air navigation. They will be great
4 ly improved no doubt. The French
use hind planes becausesthey desire to
have ordinary. unframed people use
aeroplanes. The unframed cannot to
this day sail the seas, andsthere is no
reason why thesuntrained should fly
through the air.
The starting apparatus is the chief
feature in dispute. Thea French use
} wheels and the Wright abrothers use
instead skids. A French Iaviator pro-
poses to combine the two. Hejsays:
} "Instead of the rails little car and
catapult, wheels should be used for
starting and when thei machine is in
the air the wheels should be drawn up
like the feet andSlegs of aabird, SO that
when it descends it won't touch the
, ground on it's sides. It is incon test
able that the skids on which the Wright
} aeroplane is mounted fenable it to de-
scend on rough ground, which would
wreck the wheels and framework of a
T French machine. But, on the other
? hand, if the French aeroplane found
/ moderately smooth ground to alight
D on it could take flight from it unload
r ed, whereas to reascend into the air.
3 the Wright machine would require the
D rail, the little carl and the catapult
) which would have to ebe brought to it
or to which it would have to be Econ.
. veyed.''
/ This sufficiently explaines the differ.
ence betw cen the two schools Of avia'
o tors. When, however, human fight be-
i comes a mere matter OF, f,starting, it ii
;. plain the problem is nearly solved.
