Mr. TAFT TO KEEP
HIS HANDS OFF
PRESIDENT WILL HAVE NOTHING
TO DO WITH PLATFORMS
OR CANDIDATES.

BEVERLY, Observation-Disclosures
dent Taft has stated, with more
emphasis than he has heretofore en-
JlOyed, the position he is taking with
cegard to Republican State platforms
md candidates. The President does
not think he should be called upon
o write the party declarations in the
Inherent Commonwealths, or to name
men for any of the elective offices. A
President, it was minated, has a
pretty big job on his hands when he
undertakes to fulfill all the pledges
in the national platform and to bring
Congress around to the same way of
thinking.
AS to planks in the State platforms
endorsing the Administration, the
President feels that unless they can
be written upon what he has said and
done since taking office, nothing he
could add in a personal way would
help matters out.
The Ohio conferences Of the past
three days have served to bring out
the Presidents attitude. He has been
informed OF the general tenor OF the
platform TO be adopted at the Column
bus convention the latter part of this
month, but he did not go into the de-
tails Of the different planks. Under
no circumstances, the President let 1t
be known, would he express an opin-
ion as to candidates.
The friends of James r. Garfield
are hopeful that the delegates NAV
turn to him, but the State leaders de-
clare Mr.. Garfield cannot be norni-
mated. The only other candidate who
Is much talked of is Representative
Nicholas Longworth. 1t is said, how
ever, that Mr.. Longworth much pre-
fers to remain in Congress.

About Baking Bread.

Bread is made from many other
grains than wheat and rye. The bread
OF India and China frequently has mill
let for its main ingredient. Peas.
beans and other seeds are used for the
making of cakes, and in South America
the cassava cake is only an infer
mented bread made from tapioca. On
the same list, too, might be placed the
oatcakes OF Scotland and the corn
cakes of the United States.
The art of baking loaves came to
Europe quite late in history. Flat
cakes were baked even in the earliest
times, but as late as the beginning of
the nineteenth century loaf bread was
comparatively unknown in many parts
OF the continent.
In 1872 an English captain ordered
loaves to the value of So in Gotten
burg, and the baker stipulated for nav
