Judge w. II. Taft, at noon on Tues
day, accepted the nomination of the
Republican party to be its candidate
for the presidency.
Political leaders from far and near
gathered to give the affair its politi.
cal significance, while from the city
and surrounding suburbs the friends,
neighbors and admirers of Judge
Taft among his own townspeople
turned out in countless numbers and
without regard to party affiliation.

members of the national committee,
including Frank II. Hitchcock. who
made flying trip to Cincinnati en-
route from Chicago to Washington

into the very essence of his declara-
ton of principles, the first portion OF
his remarks being a declaration that
Republican strength lies in a mainte-
nance of "the Roosevelt principles"
He dwelt at some length upon what
the president has done In the line OF
reform, and declared the chief func-
ton Of the administration to be
clinching OF what already has been
accomplished. He asserted, in COM
pairing the platforms of the two old
parties, that the Republican declara-
ton Is progressive and regulatfye,
while the Democratic Is radical and
destructive. Judge Taft discussed
trusts. labor. injunctions, the .physi-
cal valuation of railroads, the cur.
rency, the postal savings banks,
which he declared were preferable to
the Democratic plan OF government
guarantee OF deposits, publicity OF
campaign contributions and all other
issues which he regards as pertinent
in the coming campaign. He con.
cluded with the declaration that as be-
tween the two old parties the differ
ence consisted of the fact that with
Republican success there would be
prosperity; with Democratic victory
there would be disaster.
When the final address was finished
there was a procession OF local and
visiting marching clubs, militia and
various civic organizations. From an
improvised reviewing stand on the
sidewalk Judge Taft reviewed the
passing hosts.

The French revolution had It's eff.
feet upon the fashions OF 1900, as we'll
as upon matters Of more weighty i'm
port, the tendency being greatly to
simplify costumes, says the English
Illustrated Magazine. Young men in
England adopted the short coat, light
waistcoat and pantaloonS inaugurated
in Paris by certain set who affected
to desire the old court fashions.
The use Of powder made more ex-
pensive by taxation, quite died out and
short hair became universal
Trousers and Wellington boots, at
first worn only by the military, were
adopted by civilians about 1914, and
the dandy Of the early Victorian era
wore his tightly strapped down. He
also prided himself on his starched
collar, which had gone out of favor
under George w., who preferred a
black silk kerchief or stock.
The snuff box vanished and the char
acteristic ornament OF the age was
the bunch of seals hanging from the
watch chain. Various notifications

Queen Victoria's long reign. but the
