and Mr.. Taft sealed his fate when he
signed the Payne-Aldrich bill and in

The speakership Of the house o

success of the big work he has hat
to do.
Since Clark was elected speaker, he
has been mentioned for the presi
dency. No public man could fail to be
,flattered by the prospect of the Demo
cratic nomination. The speaker has
subordinated his personality and what
ambitions he may have to the good OF
his party. He has sought harmony in
the house of representatives, harmony
among the leaders of the party in the
country. He has steered the cause OF
his party so as to render good serv.

make it sure that some Democrat will
win rather than to insure the nomina,

1t requires big man and strong
one to hold true to position like this,
The speakership offers thousand
chances for advertisement and for
political advancement if it's holders
will but use it. Mr.. Clark has kept
himself In hand. His only important
public deliverance was his defense of
the Democratic majority in the house
against Mr.. Taft's charge that the
Democrats were playing politics.. Mr..
Clark carried off the honors in this de-.
bate.
The qualities of tried experience, of
personal eligibility, of, conservatism
