Plurality for TAFT.

CHICAGO, Aug. Ex-senator Joseph NJ.
Dixon Of Montana was today appointed by
Chairman Frank II. Hitchcock OF the re-
publican national committee as the director
OF the speakers bureau at the Chicago
headquarters. The long service of Senator
Dixon as member of the house OF repre-
sentativcs and later of the United States
senate has equipped him for this position,
for the reason that he is familiar with the
qualifications Of men for active campaign
ing. He has a large acquaintance with
leaders Of the psrty in western states who
will be called upon to fiji speaking engage
ments.
Chairman Hitchcock began his political
engagements shortly after he arrived from
New York lie had breakfast on the train,
and proceeded directly to the headquarters
in the Harvester building and disposed of
a large amount of business, brought before
him by Secretary Hayward and other Off
cials of the western campaign force. He
conferred also with Senator Dixon and
Fred c. Upham. the assistant treasurer of
the national committee.
The question of providing a speaker of
national Importance to address the republic
can state convention at Springfield on Sep
tember was brought to Mr.. Htchcocks
attention by State Chairman West The
Hughes, Secretary Root or Mr.. Sherman,
the candidate for vice president, but none
of these men was available so early in the
| campaign.
Sherman's FirHt speech.
It was announced today that Mr.. Sher-
man would make his first campaign speech
in this city probably before the Hamilton
! club, on September 2s. He will continue
speaking in the state for the next three
days. Representatives Mckinley, chair
man of the republican congressional com
mittee is expected here tomorrow, when
Mr.. Shermans itinerary will probably be
made up. 1t probably will be arranged to
aid so far as possible the congressional
campaign.
Senator Hemenway and state Chairman
James P. Goodrich OF Indiana we're callers
! at republican headquarters today. The
former expressed the opinion that Indiana
would give from 25,0O0 to 5000 majority
for Taft and Sherman and that the entire
state ticket would be carried by the re-
publicans.
Chairman Hitchcock today announced the
following committee to organize finance
| committees for western states:
