in.
And the next morning found him on
his way from New York to Erie with
out having seen Sarah. Happy in the
thought that he was to prove himself.

letter to her telling all and explaining
his departure without seeing her
The next afternoon he reached Erie
tired and sleepy. From supper he
went directly to bed in the home Of
one Of the dispatchers. where he had
secured room and board. and at 6 the
next morning he began work.
He soon found that train dispatching
was not easy. During the first weeks
of his work he was assisted and
watched by the dispatcher whose place
he was to take. Then began the night
shift. As far as population was con
cerned, Erie was hardly on the map,
but as railroad point it was most i'm

How could he keep awake? The sta

loneliness.
He worked on, continually cheered
by his letters from home and Sarah
and by his own satisfaction at doing
something well. And the first pay

weeks wages. his $50? Then he was
given really important desk

missions.
From the day three years ago when
it placed its interests in the keeping of
William Howard Taft to this hour la
act, and with discriminating mind it is
judging him as one who, without clam
or or demonstration, has kept the faith.
On Sept. 9. 1908, Theodore Roosevelt,
then president of the United States,
wrote letter to Conrad Kohrs on the
issues of the campaign and, addressing
himself to the aboring men. said:
IF there is one body of men more
than another whose support | feel |
have a right to challenge on behalf Of
Secretary Taft it is the body of wage
workers of the country. A stancher
friend, fairer and truer represent
alive they cannot find within the Dor
ders of the United States. He will do
everything in his power for them ex.
cept to do that which is wrong He
will do wrong for no man and there
fore can be trusted by all men"
MIR. Taft Labor's Friend.
The workingmen of the country
judged Mr. Taft in 1908 by record of
twenty-Seven years as statesman, add
ministrator Of national affairs and pres
idential adviser, and they helped to
give him the magnificent majority
which put him in the White House.
During the three years he has been
president his excellent record has been
maintained so splendidly that the la
boring men have been confirmed in the
belief that they never had a better
friend in the White House
The establishment of the postal saw
ings banks, which was recommended
by President Taft, was one of the
things that organized labor favored
The $1G,00O.000 now on deposit in these
repositories represents the savings of
the wage earners.
Taft's Personal Interest

May 80, 1903, to compensate workmen
for injuries received while in the EN-

The report of the commission. the
evidence taken before it and the draft
of the bill prepared as Il result of the
findings Of said commission have been
transmitted TO congress, accompanied
By a special message by President
Taft in which he recommends the
passage of the proposed measure. In
their deliberations the members of
the commission had the benefit of fire.
quent consultations with the president.
1t is believed the act will stand the
test of constitutionality.
In order that the commission might
have the benefit of the experience of
practical man President Taft APP
pointed as one of its members Daniel
l.. Cease, the editor of the Railroad
Trainmen's journal, the official organ
of the railroad trainmen. Mr.. Cease
has devoted the best years of his use
full life to the cause of labor. The
president also appointed experienced
labor men as inspectors under the To-
comotive boiler inspection law They
were John f. Ensign of Colorado and
Frank McManamy of Oregon for chief
inspector and assistant chief inspector
respectively.
The defects i'll the present eight hour
law have not escaped the attention OF
President Taft. He has recommended
to congress amendments which will
make it really effective by ''providing
that public works shall be construed
to include not only buildings and
works upon public grounds, but also
ships armor and large guns when
manufactured in private yards or fac
tories"
Thirty Years Service.
With regard to the high cost of liv
Ing, which increases the burden of the
wage earners, President Taft has al
ready taken the initiative that will re-
suit in worldwide inquiry into this
problem. He has advocated the as
sembling of a worlds congress to dis
cuss its varied phases and to suggest
remedies.
This unparalleled record of thirty
years service to the cause of all the
people is deserving of consideration.
No charge of broken faith or of broken
promises can be made no hint of de-
parture from the plain path of duty
can be laid at the door of William
Howard Taft, who without ostenta
tious display has wisely and fearless
ly administered the trust imposed upon
him in 1908. when he was elected to
his high office by the votes of labor
ing men.
