News of Taft's Victory Causes Little Excitement in Cincinnati. Hughes Has No Com
 ment to Make

Washington, June 21.-President Tart tonight made the following statement;
 .The national convention of one of the great parties is ordinarily important only as A preliminary to a national campaign for the election of President The Chi- caso convention just ended is much more than this and is in itself the end CT a pre-convention campaign presenting crisis more threatening and issues more important than those of the election cam paign which is to follow between the two. great national parties. The question here at stake was whether the republican party was to change its attitude as the choice of the conservation of the nation of constitutional representative govern ment and was to weaken the constitution al guarantees of life, liberty and proper1s and all other rights declared sacred In the bill of rights. by abandoning the prin- ciple of the absolute independence o the Judiciary essential to the mainte nance of those rights.

  our government was so sudden and un- expected that time was not given clearly to show to the people and the party the dangers which confronted them. was sought to break the wise and valuabl. tradition against giving more than t~ terms to any one man in the presidency and the danger from it's breach could no be measured The importance of th' great victory which has been achieved
 A11N. country patriotic people tonight art breathing more freely that mos serious menace to our republican institutions has been averted. A
 '.It is not necessary tonight to spea$ q the result in November or of the issue which will arise between the republican, and democratic parties in the presidential campaign to follow. It will be time enough to do that after the action of the Baltimore convention. It is enough now to Say that whatever may happen lh November, a great victory for the repuh- lican party and the United States has been won The party remains as a grcei powerful organization for carrying our its patriotic principles as an agency of real progress in the development of the nation along the constitutional lines upon which it was constructed and has ever been maintained and it's future oppor- tunty for usefulness is as great as its achievements in the past"
 President Taft declared tonight he was much in favor of having his secretary Charles n. IIilies, for chairman of the republican national committee. He pressed high appreciation of MT Hilles work in the pre-convention campaign When asked if he would take the stump this fall the President rep~> he con sidered it likely that he would He was plainly elated at his victory when the complete results became known.

Then Ohio was called again Harding took the platform greeted by scattered cheers to nominate Taft.

 II soon became evident that Mir Hard ing had accidentally precipitated the nom- mating demonstration, for he stll kept the platform and tried to make himself heard He had not placed MT, Taft in nomination, but the crowd thought so and turned loose
 Through the tumult California, New Jer- sey, Pennsylvania and the Roosevelt states sat silent.
 Suddenly from somewhere came fam- ing red banner bearing a picture Of the President The demonstration was re- newed. One Illinois delegate stripped off his coat to have something to wave.

Except for few touches in the committee room and completion of the wire facilities the armory is ready for the exchange of views. The only portraits allowed Inside are those of Washington, Jefferson and Jackson, and the only stock of inscrip- tions are the following:
 Who never sold the truth to save the hour" Jackson May the virtue and happiness of the people be preserved and the government which they have insti- tuted for protection of their liberties be perpetuated' Washington; May the infinite power which rules the destinies of the universe lead our counsels to what Is best and give them a favorable issue for your prosperity and peace Jefferson.
 The latters picture is just above the speakers stand. Washingtons is at one end of the hall and Jackson's at the other.
 Spectacular work was done today by the Wilson adherents who sent emlssaries with thousands of pasteboard hat bands bearing the slogan Win with Wilson" Clark boomers have confined their acti- vities principally to distributing pictures of their candidate in almost every avail able spot inside the hotels and where their headquarters are located. They have issued reams of campaign literature Por- traits of Underwood, Gaynor and liar mon are everywhere in evidence.
