pREsIpRNr TAFTes START.

William II. Taft comes to the presi.
deucy of the United States with the good
viii Of a very large proportion of the
people of the country at his command
which psves the way for successful
administration insofar as the cordial re-
lations between executive and people can
insure such success. Taft's disposition
aud temperament are calculated to at.
tract friends, even as Roosevelt's disposi-
tion and temperament were calculated
to attract hero-worshipers so while the
people admired Roosevelt they feel al
most cordial personal relationship with
the new president. Along with this feel
ing of acquaintance, they have a sense
of confidence which was inspired BY deeds
done as promised Taft is really a
square DEAF man and is fully entitled
to the designation which was accredited
to HE predecessor; and he takes the title
by right as well as becomes residuary
legatee. even as he has taken so many Of
the policies which went with the previous
administration. Thus equipped with the
good win of the people and with their
confidence. Taft assumes the reins OF
government for four years. Taft will
not reeklessly ALLEVIATE any Of those
friends. nor will be voluntarily do any
thing to betray the confidence which is
rsposed in him. Nevertheless. he win
give us an honest administration.
