Pres. Taft Says That He
Has Every Reason to Be
Satisfied with Conditions.

Northwest, tells me that reports from
committee. who has been visiting the
all parts of those states bring most
gratifying evidence of Republican con-
fidenee and activity with earnest de-
termination to achieve the success OF
Republican principles and candidates.
THE population of the Northwest
is not surpassed anywhere in intel
ligence and thrift and attachment to
American institutions. The farmers
of that part of the Union were never
so prosperous and they, do not mean
to risk the loss of their prosperity by
abandoning the Republican party,
whose policies have enabled them to
prosper. They are convinced that the
third term candidate is no longer in
the running, and that the choice Is
between the Republican platform and
candidates on the. one hand, ana, on
the other hand, the Democratic plat
form, with its plank of tarin Tor
revenue only; and its candidate, GOV.
Wilson, who said in an address At
Williams Grove. Pa. that the farm
err does not need protection. 1t Is un-
necessary to explain to the farmer,

coast what Gov. Wilson'S very frank
declaration would mean. with Mr.. Will
