President Taft is sometimes cred.
tied with being no politician because
he blurts out just what he honestly
thinks. 1t is this characteristic of
absolute frankness that make his
friends admire him ana the whole ma
ton respect him. His remark of today
that the result in Ohio will settle the
Republican nomination for President
is not only very frank but it is also
good politics. If the people of his
home State will not rally to his sup
port none else will. And we have no
doubt that Mr.. Taft will carry Ohio by
an overwhelming vote-and that will
settle It..
