Yet that is what President Taft has done.
He has made no threats against any interest at home or
abroad
He has never uttered boaStuI word about our country
or himself.
He has avoided everything of a controversial nature.
Yet he has stood firmly and clearly along the line OF GER
tain great principles,
firm national policy that is yet based on harmonious
atonS with the whole world has been enunCiated,
President att has radated good will and scattered mic
robes OF prosperity as he went along,
He attacked no industry and boosted for all American in
fereStS
He attacked no individual and no corporation.
In none of his seven hundred speeches did he utter
wrong word,
In broad spirit Of progress he has shown himself great
man and true American,
The whole nation feeling the benefit of his boad-mnded
craftsmanship,
There are those who would have liked more sensational
