Berkeley had the honor of being
the first city overlooking the bay to
welcome the president. He was es-
corted to the Greek theatre of the
University of California, where he
was greeted by Prof Barnard Moses.
The president made a brief address
in which he declared that ideals in
popular government were splendid
things to cultivate but that the man
at the helm must be content with
compromise; he must accept his re-
sponsibilities and "play the game"
whether he succeeds in bringing the
people to follow him or whether he
follows the people.
From Berkeley the president went
to Oakland and made an outdoor
address to throng of several thous-
and people. Crossing the bay on
the revenue cutter Golden Gate, he
had luncheon during the trip. Upon
arrival at San Francisco he was
taken for a three mile carriage ride
through the principal streets. On
Van Ness avenue the president re-
viewed the city's school children.
Next he laid the cornerstone of the
new Y. M. G. A. building and ex-
pressed again the interest he always
feels in Y. M. G. A. work. Taft has
what the delegates refer to as his
"Y. NJ. G. A. speech" He has laid
cornerstones for this class of build
ings in Shanghai Hong Kong, all
through the United States, and in
many other parts of the world, and
being a Mason in good standing,
Taft always works hard when he
has the task of laying cornerstones,
and today's ceremony was no excep-
tion to the rule. With a silver
trowel he sprinkled mortar for full

into place.
Later in the day the president
was the guest of honor at the Re-
publican Union League club. To-
night he was rendered a banquet at
the Fairmont hotel by more than
500 residents of San Francisco and
later was entertained at the Press
club.
The president retired at the st.
Francis hotel at midnight. He will
leave at s o'clock in the morning
for the Yosemite valley. During the
trip across the bay the presidents
flag, flying from the Golden Gate,
was saluted by the training ship
Pensacola, the training ship at Goat
island, and the cruiser st. Louis and
revenue cutter McCulloch. While in
Berkeley the president visited his
cousin, Mrs. Charles T. Blake, after
which there passed in review the
pupils of the institution for the
deaf. dumb and blind The hun
dreds of flags waved with unseeing
eyes, the silent mods of the dumb
and cheers from the blind puDi's,
deeply impressed the president.
Mr.. Taft saw San Francisco today
for the first time since the fire. At
the time of the disaster he was sec.
retary of war and had much to do
with the plans for the relief of the
stricken people. The president was
greatly interested in the upbuilding
of the city.
In his sneech at the banquet to-
night Mr.. Taft reiterated his views
on the subject of the merchant ma
rine, and aroused great enthusiasm
by his declaration that he would
urge the passage of ship subsidy
law as one of the principal subjects
of his forthcoming message to con-
gress. "The extension of the Pa
cific trade is one of the objects of
the administration, Taft said, and
added that he knew of no more i'm
portant subject to which congress
could devote its attention.
