188O.1912.

MANY references are being made to the
effort to nominate Gen. Grant for a third
term as President in 1880. Would that
effort have been made but for the prac-
teal ineligibility of President Hayes for
a denomination?
Mr. Hayes had given the country good
administration, and was good man. But
the conditions under which he had taken
office had removed him from considera-
ton as his own successor. He did not
desire a second term, and even II he had
his party's leaders would have feared to
put the standard into his hands. new
man must be found.
Probably the ablest American then In
office was John Sherman. who as Secre-
tary of the Treasury had just brought
about the resumption Of specie payments,
and was now an aspirant for the presi-
dency. But. with all of his ability-part-
ly. indeed, because of 1.-THE was person
ally unpopular. and some of the strong
est men in the republican party were
refusing him support.
In this situation-Mr. Hayes ineligible
and Mr.. Sherman unpopular-many re-
publicans turned to Cen Grant again,
who, despite the comparative failure OF
his second administration, was still great
" admired for his sterling personal quail
ties and retained a strong hold on the
soldier vote of the country.
The demonstration in the circumstances
was extraordinary. But 1t failed. Racked
as the party was by dissensions, the ma
tority in national convention would not
commit itself to third-term candidacy.
Mr. Taft is neither Ineligible nor 'un-
popular. He has given the country a
good administration, and party lines do
not run in the esteem In which he Is
held. His engaging address is confessed
by democrats as freely as by republicans.
Precedent is in favor Of second term
f6f him, and he deserves it.
The question. them turns upon his rec
ord. Does that warrant his ambition,
and the appeals that are being made for
him?
His speech in Chicago Saturday night
was in explanation of what he had done
as President, and in promise OF what may
be expected Of him II he Is reelected.
He did mot dwell too long or with too
great emphasis on any point, but cited
the issues in order. and made himself
clear as to all. He had attention and
applause. and left his hearers with much
to consider at their leisure.
The more the Taft record Is considered
the better it appears. 1t has been made
without violent trumpetings, and Is
the worthier for that fact. Meet
ing the issues quietly. Mr.. Taft has done
nothing in haste or heat. but everything
in the calm and with the elaboration of
a man trained to investigate, and prac-
ticed as judge In weighing both sides.
He has had the great majority Of his
party with him in all the steps he has
taken. If. therefore. he has failed. the
party has failed; and II at Chicago the
party confesses failure what will its
nomination be worth?

Hearst on Woodrow Wilson.

William r. Hearst impeaches the de-
mocracy of Woodrow Wilson. He classes
| him as more Hamiltonian than Jefferson
ian. He is right, and Gov. Wilson should
plead guilty.
But is it so terrible thing to be g
Hamiltonian? Some very eminent men
in our affairs have deserved that CLASH
fication. That is to say, broadly speak
ing, they have believed in a government
with strong central powers rather than
in q rope-of-sand government.
Washington was a Hamiltonian. He
consulted Hamilton constantly, and his
immortal message to his countrymen-
the Farewell Address-was fashioned by
Hamilton.
Chief Justice Marshall was a Hamil-
tonian. His Interpretation Of the Con-
stitution was on the large lines of Ham
iiton's contentious.
Daniel Webster was a Hamiltonian.
His reply to Hayne was in the very
spirit of Hamilton; and the greatest trib-
ute to that deliverance so far paid is
that 1t shotted every gun fired in defense
of the Union during the civil war.
Andrew jackson was a Hamiltonian.
His suggestion on a certain occasion Of a
lldltcT " JOHiI -. SdihOuA was III lhS
most vigorous Hamiltonian conception OF
things. Had jackson been in the White
House between November, 1860. and
March. 1861. there would probably have
been no civil war. He would have as
serted the power of the central govern
ment to preserve itself SO promptly and
emphatically that the leaders Of the dis
ruption movement would have been
paralyzed.
| Abraham Lincoln was a Hamiltonian
and a Jacksonian. He resembled Ham
| ilton in his large ideas Of government
| and jackson in the latter's iron nerve
No rope-of-sand Interpretation Of oul
governmental venture found any favor
with him. He. as Hamilton had been
was for a government strong enough to
give expression to the peoples will in
| the peoples interests. Not a few Of the
people: not the people divided into
classes and factions and set at each
others threats, but all the people of all
conditions and sections.
Need Gov Wilson fear to take his
stand openly with these men? Are there
greater men in our history? Washington
is the recognized essence OF the truly
American governmental idea. Marshall
| has given us law that will remain while
we as a nation remain. Webster ranks
with Burke as an orator; and together
they suggest 1.-The glory that was Greece
the grandeur that was Rome" Jackson
though unfinished, possessed remarkable
native gifts, while Lincoln was the great
est man Of his time.
| All Hamiltonians. All the advocates
and upholders of popular government
| All Americans to their finger tips. Some
of Hamiltons most faithful copyists are
men now teaching populism for persona
ends, and, in doing SO. distorting his
tory and misappraising those who have
made our best history.

 INSTRUCTED FOR TAFT
Convention Was the Widest
 the State Ever Saw.

With a vote of 764 against 72O for Senator A. B. Cummins, the Iowa state Republican convention adopted reso, luttons tnstructing the states four delegates at large to the Chicago con- vention for President Taft. The reso- lutions were brief. The convention was the widest the state ever saw.
 The delegates at large are Governor Carroll of Des Moines, George D. Per kins of Sioux City, Luther A. Brewer of Cedar Rapids and J. F. Bryan of Creston.
 Before the convention met Senator Cummins admitted that it looked like defeat. Asked If he would withdraw from the presidential race, he replied:

 The result in the state contest is that of 1owa's delegation of 26 votes Taft has 16 and Cummins 10.

Win Be Held this Year at Winslow Where it Will be Easy of Ac.
 cess to All

Winslow is going to have at her Pioneer celebration next August a real, genuine bona-fde snake dance by the Moqui Indians, according to the plans of those in charge of the annual fiesta, who say that after a years persuading the Indians have finally agreed to give their famous dance in Wins low, true in every detail.
 The Indians it is said are in the humor to do so because of the good treatment and the substantial cash prizes they received at the Pioneer celebration last year, in the races and other events. Further announcements will be made later and if the Moquis are persuaded to give even a passable imitation of their snake dance, tourists will come clear across the country to see the celebration, as Winslow is, to say the least, slightly more accessible than the Indian pueblos.

PRESIDENT TAFT
 DEFEATS RAILROADS

President Taft's methods of doing his work as President. with out seeking to achieve personal notoriety from his good works was never better illustrated than in his ultimatum to the railroads of the country which prevented a general. increase in railroad rates just prior to the adoption of amend ments to the railroad rate law two years ago. The President served notice upon the railroads that if they anticipated the new law they would be hauled intocourt and as result of subsequent conferences the railroads agreed to postpone their action until the new law was passed.
 In the new law of congress Pres- ident Taft assisted in inserting provision which transferred from the shoulders of the shipper to that of the railroads the burden of proof in establishing the reason ableness of railroad rate. Under this new law the railroads subse- quently made application for an increase in their rates and the in- terstate commerce commission, not being satisfied with the show ing of the railroads as to their reasonableness, denied tn m. Thus one of the great achieve ments of President Taft came to pass, an achievement which affect ed every man, woman and child in the country, but it was done so quietly that 1t has almost been forgotten by many who were ben eftted.
