Representative j. Hampton Moore,
who is well known in many different
sections of the country on account of
his active interest in waterway i'm
provements, in discussing the admins
tratiOn Of President Taft has this to
say:
president Taft ought to be renom-
mated and elected because he stands
for stability. He should be nominated
because it has been generally conceded
by Republicans since the first day he
entered the Office that the same treat
ment would be accorded him with re-
spect to a second term that is usually
accorded 10 Republican presidents who
have done we'll There Is no good
party excuse for not nominating him.
He should be elected because, while
not political president in the sense
that he has played politics to the salts
faction OF all elements Of his party, he
has in fact been broad gauge presi-
dent. conservative in all matters af-
fecting the dignity of the office and the
obligations assumed by him to sustain
and uphold the constitution and the
laws of this country"

Honesty of intention. stability of

ciples Of the party Of Lincoln. Grant
and Mckinley are some of the charac-
terlstlcs Of President Taft Familiar
with the horrors of war. as well as
the enormous expense that It always
entails. independent of the vast ex-

nation upon a constant war footing.
the president has persistently sought
to promote a SSldwide peace of ma
