Columbus, Ohio, Nov. Dedicated
but far from discouraged, President
Taft has already formed plans for
holding together and strengthening
the Republican party The plans are
indefinite, but he declared, tonight, to
friends, who accompanied him north
from Cincinnati, that the party would
continue to exist, that it would be as
active as in the past and that there
was no reason TO believe that its
chances of future success were not ex-
cellent. So far as the Presidents plan
is concerned. he hopes to see organ
lied a National Republican Club"
entirely apart from the Republican
National committee, which shall
cherish the principles of the party
and be source of political activity.
not only during election years, but at
all times. The President spoke of tho
Republican Club of New York. the
Hamilton Club of Chicago and other
organizations similar in character and
expressed the belief that through these
clubs interest land loyalty could be
kept alive.
TO a suggestion that he might be
the Republican party's nominee in
1916, the President replied with n
smile, but made no comment. He
laughingly repeated his intention of
returning to Cincinnati and the prac-
tiee of law ~
The President is convinced that the
task of President Elect Wilson will
not be easy. He said. tonight. that he
earnestly hoped MIR. Wilson would not
call an extra session of Congress to
revise the tariff. He wished, he said,
to see the present prosperity continue
as long as possible.
Mr.. Taft declared that Mr.. Wilson
would face a Congress made up to a
large extent of untried men, who have
come to believe in "Histrionic public
| ity, and who believe that to show
their faith with the people they must
at times be Insurgents" and oppose
the program of the leaders. The Pres
ident was particularly interested in
any tariff revision program and laugh
ed when he said he was eagerly await

the schedules of that Ubiquitous Payne

THE CABINET MAKERS.

Washington, Nov. 6.-Cabinet maxi
ers are already busy conjuring with
names of those who will share with
Wilson in shaping the policy of the
administration. Necessarily this is
purely gossip, but the cabinet builders
are meme the less active In pointing out
the persons and the elements available
as cabinet material.
One OF The available elements em-
BRACES those who were conspicuous
party figures at the Baltimore conyen-
ton, including Speaker. Clark. Chair
man Underwood OF the ways and
means committee, William j. Bryan;
Gov. Foss of Massachusetts. Gov. Har-
mon Of Ohio and some others. 1t is
generally assumed, however. that
Speaker Clark and Chairman Under
wood would prefer to continue their
work in Congress, especially now that
the legislative program on the tariff
and other questions is likely to meet
with fewer obstacles. AS to MIR. Bry-
an. one of the Democratic senator's
VAS quoted during the campaign as
definitely assigning Mr.. Bryan to a
cabinet place in case OF Wilson'S cleo
ton, although the latter stated about
the same time that no consideration
mad been given to the personnel of the
cabinet. None the less, speculation is
active as to whether the Nebraskan
will have portfolio.
Another element from which cab.
inet material is being suggested en-
braces those who have been pro1ni-
nently identified with the Wilson cam
paign. notably Chairman Mccombs of
the Democratic National committee,
Representatives Burieson and Henry
of Texas. Rep. Palmer of Pennsylva-
MIA; Assistant Chairman McAdoo and

of the conflict at Baltimore and dur
ing the campaign.
