TAFT COMES FROM GOOD STOCK
Family Ranked Among the Plain

Family Ranked Among the Plain
People for Many Years.
The Tafts those who at present are
the Tafts--hail ancestrally from Tx
bridge, Mass. They say that Tafts are
SO thick In Uxbridge that even WON
an can't throw stone without hitting
one.
Some years ago--in 1874, to be exact
there was a Taft reunion In Tx
bridge, 10 which descendants Of the
original Robert Taft came focking
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 to 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, II is not safe to
say what may be In store for them
There is tide in the affairs Of mel
and also of families"
This ig taken from the account OF
