WARD STRONG FOR TAFT
Roosevelt's Chief Supporter In
State Sticks to Party.

William l.. Ward, chairman of the West
chester County committee. came out
strongly for Taft yesterday. The commit
tee over which he presided adopted reso-
lutons indorsing Taft and Sherman. as
well as the platform of the Republican
party adopted at the Chicago convention.
The meeting was held at White Plains.
In a speech to the members Mr.. Ward
said:
I have found that there has been more
or less inquiry around the county as to
just where I stood In regard 10 the Re
publican ticket IL was natural that some
people might raise that question, beca use
they could not understand that a man
working in the Republican party is WORK
ing within his personal and political rights
to fight for what he believes are the best
interests of the party until the adjourn
ment OF the convention.
You cannot make me believe that there
are not strength and vitality enough in
the Republican party TO reform any abuse
and TO give all the progress that citizens
are nationally entitled to. No greater
record of progress has been made by any
nation since the birth Of this world than
the progress that has been made under
the Republican party from 1861 10 the
present time II we are suffering from
anything to-day in this country we are
suffering from prosperity.
There never was a time when the work
ingman received as big wages as he gets
to-day: there never was time when the
industrial institutions were running as
full as they are to-day: there never was
a time when the people enjoyed the good
things Of life az they do to-day. and vet
We now are told that we want more
progress and that we cannot get il IN
