TAFT HONORS

Principal Speaker at Birthday
Dinner In Philadelphia.
GUEST OF UNION LEAGUE


eral orsnt. and He Took This oppor.
tunity to Pay a Tribute to the Sol.
dIer.President.
President William II. Taft was the
principal speaker at the Grant birth.
day dinner given by the Union league
In Philadelphia, and he paid a striking
tribute to the soldier-president. Mr..
Taft was sharply criticised year ago
because Of certain Of his references
to General Grant. and he took advan-
tage Of the opportunity to express
anew his admiration for General Grant
as a man, as soldier and as chief
executive Of the United States.
At the clubhouse the president held
q reception for more than an hour,
some 1000 OF the Union league mem.
bers shaking hands with him. The
banquet hall of the club. where about
800 sat at the tables. was profusely
decorated with flowers. flags and cleo.
trio lights.
General Horace Porter, Of New
York. and President James Hope. OF
the Union league. were among the
speakers who preceded President Taft.
The president spoke at times In O
half quizzical manner. and there was
frequent laughter as well as applause
at his reference to political conditions
In the south.
After making complimentary refer.
ence to the Union leagues patriotic
support OF the Union army at the out.
break of the war and during It's con.
tinuance, Mr.. Taft said
1T il peculiarly fitting that this
club. each year, should celebrate the
birthday OF that man who then was
coming into prominence and upon him
hung. It would seem. the whole desti.
MES of this nation.
ut is not for me In the presence OF
gentlemen who knew him. who served
with him. who ran the risk Of life and
death with him. to descant upon his
life. his peculiar virtues. or at length
attempt to picture his character to
this company. But there are certain
things with respect to General Grant
that today come back with reference
to our passing life. They said that
General Grant had not the military
genius that other generals displayed In
the war. To my mind his mind and
brain represented the very genius OF
the war to suppress the rebellion. be-
cause It was his mind that grasped the
thought that until we had fought II
out with our brave opponents and met
them in the field and fought them a.
soldiers. until we convinced them by
our strength that the battle was hope
less. we could not expect to have a
united country. And therefore from the
time he tega: Ii Belmont Unit, ha
accepted the surrender OF Lee at Ap-
pamattox. he fought not cities. not
points Of strategy. but he fought thu
enemy and he fought until he wore
out the opposition. because only by
wearing them out he hoped to bring
about the condition In which there
should be complete peace"

MACHINE SHOP

Trouble is brewing In the ma
chine shop of the Great Northern
at Hillyard. A number of old men
were displaced when the shop re-
opened yesterday by men imported
from the east. There had been no
trouble in the shops, but the rail-
road management, it is charged,
sought to vent its spleen on union
men in general by firing a lot of
the old mach .nists.
This thing has occurred a mum.
Der of times before in the Hillyard
shops, but the men let it pass I'M
noticed. Not so on this occasion,
however.
A meeting of the machinists' UNI
on has been called for Friday night,
when some acton in support of the
discharged Hillyard shopmen will
likely be taken. The men put in
the place of those let out are card
men, but this is no excuse in the
eyes of the union.
