BEVERLY, Mass, Sept 14-Presi- dent Taft leaves Beverly tomorrow for his second swing around the cir cle" In the opinion of friends, the
 trip promises to be one of the most
 important ever undertaken by the executive Taft himself says he will indulge in but little political discuss ion but admitted he will embrace the opportunity if discussion be thrust upon him. That he will accept the gage of battle if some 'heckler' in an audience throws it on the plat form, there can be no doubt. Two
 years ago tomorrow the president started on his first trans-continental trip He had then been six months in office and the Payne Aldrich tariff law had been five weeks on the stat
 ute books On that trip he delivered his famous Winona address in de
 fense of that law, on which the most criticism of the administration tariff policy has been based.
 On the present trip the president
 has set down the tariff and the tariff board as two subjects for addresses. His vetoes of the wool cotton and free list bills are not set aside for separate addresses but these likely will be dealt with in connection with the general tariff speeches. The tar fir. after all, may prove the leading topic. though it is not now thought to be the presidents plan.
 Other subjects will be reciprocity, conservation, peace treaties. marriage and divorce. trusts, financial reform, the Panama canal. reform in judicial procedure. Alaska and general gov ernment developments. The swing beginning tomorrow. comprises about 13. 900 miles Twenty-four states will be visited and in eighteen the presi- Ident win speak.
