Grand Rapids, Mich, July 13.-The
Herald presents today the result of
another interesting midsummer poll
teal canvass made with reference to
three of the big political questions
which are coming up In 1912 for settle
ment and which seem To be already
up for widespread discussion and in
terest
Every Republican member of the
legislature was asked to express him
self I'm regard to his present prefer
ence for Republican nominations for
president. governor and United States
senator. OF 121 men thus queried. 80
(from all parts of the state) replied.
BY way of introduction. it might be
said that the general opinion expressed
seemed to be summed up I'm the fol-
lowing sentiments which came from
the Hon. John @. Ross of Muskegon,
Lieutenant Governor of Michigan, who
expressed preference for-"Taft-
Osborn-Smith" and said:
No other president has, within
the same length of time, made n
better record for accomplishment
than has President William III.
Taft. This is not fully appre-
ciated by the public for the rea-
son that Taft's inclination and
training is to do his whole duty
without any advertising of what he
accomplishes. His popularity is in
creasing rapidly because people
are commencing to understand
that he Is n big man doing big
things i'm n quiet way. lis popu-
larity will continue to grow.
In the state, what we need is a
man with ability and vigor to
awaken the people to sense of
their responsibility. While Gov
ernor Osborn and myself have not
been able to agree at all times on
public questions, | believe he is
thoroughly honest i'm his convic-
tions and everyone recognizes that
he is fearless I'm the discharge of
what he believed to be his duty.
These are the elements which
nomination and make him an ideal
candidate.
The senatorial situation is so
simple that 1t does not require ex-
tended comment. There will be
but one man proposed for the
nomination of United States sem
ator and that will be William AL
den Smith.
The result OF the poll would seem to
show an overwhelming sentiment for
the denomination of President Taft-a
, sentiment which IL entirely harmoni-
Gus with the result of a similar poll
made three weeks ago among the Re
publican state central committeeman
OF Michigan. State legislators are fol-
lowing pretty close To the political
pulse of the people. That Is part Of
their business. IL is not extravagant
to assume that their sentiments very
largely reflect the sentiments of the
people.
The result OF the poll for governor is
little short OF marvellous. In the first
place. Governor Osborn. let II be re-
membered, Is not at this time a candi-
date for a second term. In the sec
ond place, let II be remembered that
the governor and the legislature were
not at all times on the best terms this
spring. Despite these facts, however.
the governor has an overwhelming
lead In legislative sentiment for re-
nomination. His nearest opponent is
