THE LOSS OF CONFIDENCE.

One of the best articles written on
the loss of confidence by the people
in President Taft has just appeared
In the Kansas City Times. 1t was
apparently written from a Republican
standpoint, and while it cannot be in
dorsed as a whole by Democrats, yet
il shows in a clear and convincing
manner that President Taft has turn
ed his back unon the people and has
allied himself with the Cannon n
Aldrich reactionaries, the people who
are playing into the hands Of the
trusts ana combinations. The article
follows:
In mis- Lincoln Day speech in New
York, last Saturday, President Taft
admitted a loss of popularity for his
administration that might cause the
Republican party to lose the next
House of Representatives. He might
have gone further. So great has been

Friday. I'VE merely ask that the Board
do not make the list for the whole

nexibility in our work. For instance,
