TAFT NOW LOOKING
OVER HIS CABINET
Cannot Be Depended Upon
to Aid Him Much in His
Coming Campaign.
BY SIDNEY ESPEY.

WASHINGTON, Nov 4.-Wlth the
shadow OF the coming presidential ell
cction approaching so near that it is
beginning TO obliterate matters not
pertinent to the big issues, President
Taft is looking over the personnel OF
his cabinet with a view to determin-
ing which Of his official advisore will
be Of the greatest service TO him in
tAe struggle OF 1912.
Us the date Of the national conven
ton draws near the voting population
is separating the sheep from the goats
IL the group OF presidential posslbili-
ties. Politicians cUncede that in 1872
Wlll come one OF the fiercest struggles
Tor political supremacy which has oc-
CURED in many years. Realizing
this fact, President Taft is preparing
to intrench himself behind formula
bic phalanx OF supporters and 20 build
UP an organization which will require
Ii nch to overthrow. In this organ-
cation he is placing much dependence
on the members of his cabinet.
Those closest to the President seem
70 consider James Wilson, secretary OF
! Horticulture, the weakest link in the
cabinet chain because his vigorous adj
! Noracy Of Canadian reciprocity result
cd in the loss of much Republican
prestige througout the rural districts
of the Mississippi Valley which has
loug been his stronghold. From po-
| ltical point of view, many statesmen
consider that Mr.. Wilson's chief virtue
| hes in the fact that he has never done
anything very bad, and has by plod-
ding faithfulness won his way into the
hearts OF the farmers, but in supite

opinion that his stand on reciprocity

Frank H. Hitchcock, postmaster-sener-

Taft to assist in the work of conjurlng

given him such an intimate knowledge

ment Of the crowd of focal business

Milton and CenterViHe Have
Had Hot Political Campaigns

Elections to be held IN the small
towns in Wayne county tomorrow do

very little interest has been displayed.
It is thought that In most OF the towns
the vote polled will be very light.
In a number CT Instances there is
no opposition, the =" being but one can
ddatc for the office. II is sad that no
one seems to want some Of the Offices.
Towns in which elections will be
held tomorrow are Cambridge City,
Dublin, (entcryillc, Spring Grove,
last Germantown, and Milton.
At Cambridge City W. r. Austin,
Democrat aud B. &. IIolloWcll, Repub-
lcan, are candidates for trustee from
tho fourth ward. Mr. Austll is the
present trustee from that ward. r. d
Filby is candidate for trustee from
the fifth ward and has no opposition
+. w. Dirk, the present clerk is Il en-
didatc for reelection and has no OppO-
stion. Il, II. Rcssltr is candidate for

date for reelection to the Office Of

To Make 1t Independent of
Support of Civic Or
CARNATIONS.

The Richmond Symphony Orchestra

cial meeting Of the members last week.

be able to do much better work than
It has in the past. Constitution and by
laws, outlining the aims Of the Organi-
Xation were adopted and plans for the
coming year were considered.

ton Prof Will E.arhart was named as
conductor, and will manage the or
chestra through the winter, The other
officers chosen are Walter Runge, vic"
president; f, b. knollcnberg, seer
etary, Robert G.. Wilson, treasurer, and
Howard Hunt, librarian.
Two public concerts, to be given this
winter at the Coliseum are the prnci-
pal features Of the program arranged
concerts is to raise fund for the or
chestra to place 1t on an independent
basis, and keep it from having to fall
back on the support of other civic
bodies. The first concert will be held
December 6, and the orchestra has al
ready started rehearsals for this ev-
ent The other concert will be given
in the early part Of the spring The
woman's auxiliary OF the Y. M. G. A.
has undertaken to dispose of the tick
cts.
Whether there will be a May Festi-
val, and whether the Symphony Or
chestra is to perform on that occasion
will be settled at the meeting Of the
board OF directors OF the Commercial
club this evening The officers of the
musical organization hope to have it
participate in the festival again. and
have promised record-breaking pro-
gram for the event IL the matter is
considered favorably by the CONNER
cial Club executives.
The orchestra has already made a
mood start this fall. The members have
met every Sunday afternoon in the
high school gymnasium, and have
commenced practice for the entertain
ments they are to give this winter.
Most Of tho members have been in
che orchestra for two or three seasons
before, and, according to the conduc-
tor, are making excellent progress.
The orchestra numbers 60, and in
cludes almost all the instruments de-
sired. The aim of the newly elected Of
lcers will be to keep the organization
AZ nearly as possible a Wayne County
Institution.
