TO Know Taft Is to Love Him.

ITO know President Taft is to love
and admire him, to respect and hon
or him, and | am anxious to see Ok
lahoma come out strong for his re-
nomination and reelection. am
particularly pleased to note that the
World has taken such strong and
uncompromlsing attitude in his favor
"In this connection, If | may be
permitted to do so, | want to com
mend the World to the Republicans
all over the state for its clean, fear
less stand in support of President
Taft. It can and will have much to
do with unifying and solidifying the
Republicans of the state.

Some Of the anxious ones did not
wait until the funeral was over to be-
gin wire-pulling for Justice Harlan's
place on the supreme court bench.
Since every other state in the Union
has one or more candidates, what's
the matter with Oklahoma getting in
the race? This state is conceded to
have some of the ablest lawyers in the
country and there is a constantly de-
creasing demand for their services at
home, so If the multiplicity OF aspir-
ants from other and older states COM
pllcates the situation, we feel certain
that the president can find as good
material down here in oklahoma as
can be presented by any other section
of the country

Tariff Question, Nationally.

Nationally, | think the tariff ques-
ton will continue to be the issue upon
which the Republican party can take
It's stand and safely go before the
people. In fact, the record of the
Republican party upon this great
question, in my judgment, is unassail-
able.
THE Republicans of Oklahoma
should begin to prepare now for the
campaign next year. for 1t doubtless
will be one of the most farreaching
effect of any we have gone through
since 1896, and the people are look
ing to the Republican party, as they
always have, to guide and direct the
destinies of the nation in safe and
sane lines, guarding and protecting
their interests and giving to the coun-
try sound and yet progressive ad-
lmmistraton Of its affairs

"The loose, careless, and in my

which has characterized the state ad-

This was made certain under rul-

General Cosson to the effect that he
can find no provision in the law which
makes in mandatory for the reassenl-

This means return to the old cau-

torney general states that he can find
nothing in tie law which would make

assemble and choose the national con-
